Megváltóm Él, Én Jól Tudom

Author: Charles Wesley; Anna Piroska Williams Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Megváltóm él, én jól tudom Lyrics: 1 Megváltóm él, én jól tudom, Őt Megváltómnak hívhatom! Ki Benne hisz, nem lát halált, Új testben látja majd Urát! Mert Jézus egy nap visszajön, Mint Bíró áll meg e földön. 2 Egy nap majd innen búcsúzok, A sírban békén nyughatok. Elhúnyva várom Megváltóm, Ő hű, eljő értem, tudom. Mert Krisztus lett az életem, A halál nem árt énnekem! 3 Ítélet napja felvirrad, S bár testemből csak por marad, Bár fogva tart soká a sír, Életre Bírám visszahív, Feltámaszt engem mint egyént, És minden embert egyenként. 4 Meglátja Őt az én szemem, Meglátom Őt, ki Istenem, És leghőbb vágyam teljesül, Megváltómnak szívem örül! Kimondhatatlan örömem: Megváltóm arcát nézhetem! Used With Tune: BROWNWELL

Sinners, Believe the Gospel Word

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Sinners, believe the Gospel word, Jesus is come your souls to save Jesus is come, your common Lord; Pardon ye all through Him may have, May now be saved, whoever will; This Man receiveth sinners still. 2. See where the lame, the halt, the blind, The deaf, the dumb, the sick, the poor, Flock to the Friend of human kind, And freely all accept their cure; To whom did He His help deny? Whom in His days of flesh pass by? 3. Did not His Word the fiends expel, The lepers cleanse, and raise the dead? Did He not all their sickness heal, And satisfy their every need? Did He reject His helpless clay, Or send them sorrowful away? 4. Nay, but His bowels yearned to see The people hungry, scattered, faint; Nay, but He uttered over thee, Jerusalem, a true complaint; Jerusalem, who shedd’st His blood, That, with His tears, for thee hath flowed. Used With Tune: BROWNWELL Text Sources: First published in 1741 as part of an 18-stanza hymn, "See, Sinners in the Gospel Glass." Then the hymn was split in three parts & re-published in 1780.

They Seek The Babe

Author: Mary N. Meigs Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: They seek the Babe—no regal state Lyrics: 1 They seek the Babe—no regal state— No princely pomp are His the while; On Him no bright-robed courtiers wait, But humble peasants watch His smile: The magi kneel, and shepherds bend, To Him who angels did attend. 2 He has resigned a crown of light— Laid all His glorious vestments by— And shrouding in this world of night The splendors of the Deity, Hath come to succor, save, and bless, His creatures in their wretchedness. 3 Savior, again we hail the day, When brightly rose Thy natal star; And join the angels’ Heaven-taught lay, Which in the azure fields afar— The music of celestial spheres, Rang on the shepherds’ listening ears. 4 And lo, from nature’s hand we bear An offering for Thy holy shrine; With evergreen, and garlands fair, High arch and lofty pillar twine: And joyfully our paeans raise, Redeemer, Savior, in Thy praise. 5 And though no bright, peculiar gem Is hung upon our midnight sky— Like that which shone o’er Bethlehem, What time the heavenly hosts were nigh— Thy Word our polar star shall be, Guiding us on, to Heaven and Thee.

'Tis Come, The Time So Oft Foretold

Author: Thomas Grinfield Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: ’Tis come, the time so oft foretold Lyrics: 1 ’Tis come, the time so oft foretold, The time eternal love forecast; Four thousand years of hope have rolled, And God hath sent His Son at last; Let heaven, let earth, adore the plan; Glory to God, and grace to man! 2 To swains that watched their nightly fold, Of lowly lot, of lowly mind, To these the tidings first were told, That spoke of hope for lost mankind; God gives His Son, no more He can; Glory to God, and grace to man! 3 And well to shepherds first ’tis known, The Lord of angels comes from high, In humblest aspect like their own, Good Shepherd, for His sheep to die: O height and depth, which who shall span? Glory to God, and grace to man! 4 Fain with those meek, those happy swains, Lord, I would hear that angel choir; Till, ravished by celestial strains, My heart responds with holy fire: That holy fire Thy breath must fan; Glory to God, and grace to man!

Eye Hath Not Seen, Ear Hath Not Heard

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Eye hath not seen, ear hath not heard What Christ hath for His saints prepared, Who conquer thro’ their Savior’s might, Who sink into perfection’s height, And trample death beneath their feet, And gladly die their Lord to meet. 2 They on the hidden manna feed The heavenly, true, angelic Bread, Who gained on earth a partial taste Of bliss too exquisite to last, Obtain His fullest joy above, And all the sweetness of His love. 3 Christ shall on them a name bestow, Which no embodied saint can know, A new inexplicable name With God essentially the same! And what it is they they conceive, When Christ doth all His fullness give. 4 Dost thou desire to know and see What thy mysterious name shall be? Contending for thy heavenly home, Thy latest foe, in death o’ercome; ’Till then thou searchest out in vain What only conquest can explain. 5 But when the Lord hath closed thine eyes, And opened them in paradise, Receiving thy new name unknown, Thou read’st it wrote on the white stone, Wrote on thy pure humanity GOD THREE IN ONE AND ONE IN THREE!

Jesus, Thou Art That Morning Star!

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 1 hymnal Refrain First Line: 88.88.88 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou art that morning star! Thy brightness in my heart declare; To me Thine only glory show, Thine only self on me bestow; I want no other light to see, No other stars or sun but Thee. 2 Who walk enlightened by Thy light Their morn hath no succeeding night; They by reflected luster shine, And bright in majesty divine, Admire with all those stars above, The Light of life, the God of love.
