Our Saviour, meek and lowly, came

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1096 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Our Saviour, meek and lowly, came, And taught his flock to be the same; He an example set, that they Might willingly his word obey. 2 For on that night he was betrayed, He for us all a pattern laid: Before his supper he did eat, He rose and washed his brethren's feet. 3 'Twas Christ, the Lord of earth and sky! He laid his royal garments by, And washed their feet, to show that we Should always kind and humble be. 4 But Peter said: "It shall not be! Thou shalt not stoop to washing me!" O, that no Christian here may say, "I'm too unworthy to obey!" 5 "You call me Lord, and Master too: Then do as I have done to you; All my commands and counsel heed, And show your love by word and deed. 6 "Ye shall be happy if ye know And do these things by faith, below; For I'll protect you till I come, And then I'll take you to your home."

At thy command, O Lord, our hope

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1097 (1886) Lyrics: 1 At thy command, O Lord, our hope, We come around thy table here; We break the bread, we bless the cup, That show thy death, till thou appear. 2 Our faith adores thy bleeding love, And trusts for life in One that died; We hope for heavenly crowns above From a Redeemer crucified. 3 Let the vain world pronounce it shame, And cast their scandals on thy cause! We come to boast our Saviour's name, And make our triumph in his cross. 4 With joy we tell the scoffing age, He that was dead hath left the tomb; He lives above their utmost rage, And we are waiting till he come.

'Twas on that dark, that doleful night

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1098 (1886) Lyrics: 1 'Twas on that dark, that doleful night, When powers of earth and hell arose Against the Son, God's dear delight, And friends betrayed him to his foes: 2 Before the mournful scene began, He took the bread, and blessed and brake: What love through all his actions ran! What wondrous words of grace he spake! 3 "This is my body, broke for sin; Receive and eat the living food:" Then took the cup, and blessed the wine: "'Tis the new covenant in my blood." 4 "Do this," he said, "till time shall end, Meet at my table, and record, In memory of your dying Friend, The love of your departed Lord." 5 Jesus, thy feast we celebrate, We show thy death, we sing thy name, Till thou return, and we shall eat The marriage supper of the Lamb.

Stretched on the Cross, the Savior Dies

Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6348 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Stretched on the cross, the Savior dies, Hark! His expiring groans arise; See, how the sacred crimson tide Flows from His hands, His feet, His side. 2. To suffer in the traitor’s place, To die for man—surprising grace! Yet pass rebellious angels by— O why for man, dear Savior, why? 3. And didst Thou bleed? for sinners bleed? And could the sun behold the deed? No! he withdrew his sickening ray, And darkness veiled the mourning day. 4. Can I survey this scene of woe, Where mingling grief and wonder flow, And yet my heart unmoved remain, Insensible to love or pain? 5. Come, dearest Lord, Thy grace impart, To warm this cold, this stupid heart, Till all its powers and passions move, In melting grief, and ardent love. Languages: English Tune Title: ZEPHYR

Why Should We Start, and Fear to Die?

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7670 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Why should we start and fear to die? Lyrics: 1. Why should we start and fear to die? What timorous worms we mortals are! Death is the gate of endless joy, And yet we dread to enter there. 2. The pains, the groans, the dying strife, Fright our approaching souls away; Still we shrink back again to life, Fond of our prison and our clay. 3. O, if my Lord would come and meet, My soul should stretch her wings in haste, Fly fearless through death’s iron gate, Nor feel the terrors as she passed. 4. Jesus can make a dying bed Feel soft as downy pillows are, While on His breast I lean my head, And breathe my life out sweetly there. Languages: English Tune Title: ZEPHYR

So Fades The Lovely, Blooming Flower

Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10562 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 So fades the lovely, blooming flower, Frail, smiling solace of an hour! So soon our transient comforts fly, And pleasure only blooms to die! 2 To certain trouble we are born, Hope to rejoice, but sure to mourn. Ah, wretched effort! sad relief, To plead necessity of grief! 3 Is there no kind, no lenient art, To heal the anguish of the heart? To ease the heavy load of care, Which nature must, but cannot bear? 4 Can reason’s dictates be obeyed? To weak, alas, her strongest aid! O let religion then be nigh, Her comforts were not made to die. 5 Her powerful aid supports the soul, And nature owns her kind control; While she unfolds the sacred page, Our fiercest griefs resign their rage. 6 Then gentle patience smiles on pain, And dying hope revives again; Hope wipes the tear from sorrow’s eye, And faith points upward to the sky. 7 The promise guides her ardent flight, And joys unknown to sense invite, Those blissful regions to explore, Where pleasure blooms, to fade no more.
