Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness
Author: John Samuel Bewley Monsell (1811-1875) Meter: 12.10.12.10 Appears in 148 hymnals Topics: Our Response to God in the worship of God's house Lyrics: 1 Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness;
bow down before him, His glory proclaim;
gold of obedience and incense of lowliness
bring, and adore him; the Lord is his Name!
2 Low at his feet lay thy burden of carefulness;
high on his heart he will bear it for thee,
comfort thy sorrows, and answer thy prayerfulness,
guiding thy steps as may best for thee be.
3 Fear not to enter his courts, in the slenderness
of the poor wealth thou canst reckon as thine;
truth in its beauty and love in its tenderness,
these are the offerings to lay on His shrine.
4 These, though we bring them in trembling and fearfulness,
he will accept for the Name that is dear,
mornings of joy give for evenings of tearfulness,
trust for our trembling, and hope for our fear.
5 Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness;
bow down before him, His glory proclaim;
gold of obedience and incense of lowliness
bring, and adore him; the Lord is his Name! Scripture: 1 Chronicles 16:29 Used With Tune: MOREDUN

from sin to release us,
as a servant lowly,
yet our God most holy,
bore the cross to save us,
hope and freedom gave us.
2 Still Christ comes within us,
still his voice would win us
from the sins that hurt us,
would to truth convert us;
from our folly spares us,
and his own declares us.
3 So, as you have known him,
be prepared to own him;
do not spurn him coldly,
but still trust him boldly;
for our Lord receives us,
heals us, and forgives us.
4 Christ, all grace possessing,
comes to us in blessing;
to his Supper leads us,
with himself he feeds us,
love and mercy showing,
peace on us bestowing.
5 Come then, O Lord Jesus,
from our bondage free us,
in your love enfold us,
in true faith uphold us.
Let us here confess you,
till in heaven we bless you. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 Used With Tune: GOTTES SOHN IST KOMMEN Text Sources: The Bohemian Brethren (1544)

Nearer to Thee.
2 Though, like the wanderer,
The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
My rest a stone;
Yet, in my dreams, I'd be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee.
3 There let the way appear
Steps unto heaven;
All that Thou sendest me
In mercy given;
Angels to beckon me
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee.

Bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs
Bethel I'll raise;
So by my woes to be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee.
5 Or if on joyful wing
Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upwards I fly;
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee. Used With Tune: BETHANY
