Before the throne of God above
Author: Charitie De Chenez, 1841-1923 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 58 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 23:6 Lyrics: 1 Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea:
a great High Priest, whose name is Love,
who ever lives and pleads for me.
2 My name is graven on his hands,
my name is written on his heart;
I know that while in heaven he stands
no tongue can bid me thence depart.
3 When Satan tempts me to despair,
and tells me of the guilt within,
upward I look, and see him there
who made an end of all my sin.
4 Because the sinless Saviour died,
my sinful soul is counted free;
for God, the just, is satisfied
to look on him and pardon me.
5 Behold him there! the risen Lamb!
My perfect, spotless righteousness,
the great unchangeable I AM,
the King of glory and of grace!
6 One with himself, I cannot die:
my soul is purchased by his blood;
my life is hid with Christ on high,
with Christ, my Saviour and my God. Topics: Holy Communion Used With Tune: FESTUS

When the King Shall Come Again
Author: Christopher Idle (1938-) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 20 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 23:1-6 Lyrics: 1 When the King shall come again,
all his power revealing;
splendour shall announce his reign,
life and joy and healing:
earth no longer in decay,
hope no more frustrated;
this is God's redemption day
longingly awaited.
2 In the desert, trees take root,
fresh from God's creation;
plants and flowers and sweetest fruit
join the celebration;
rivers spring up from the earth,
barren lands adorning.
Valleys, this is your new birth;
mountains, greet the morning!
3 Strengthen feeble hands and knees;
fainting hearts, be cheerful!
God who comes for such as these,
seeks and saves the fearful.
Deaf ears hear the silent tongues
sing away their weeping;
blind eyes see the lifeless ones
walking, running, leaping!
4 There God's highway shall be seen
where no roaring lion,
nothing evil or unclean
walks the road to Zion:
ransomed people, homeward bound
all your praises voicing,
see your Lord with glory crowned,
share in his rejoicing! Topics: Advent; Healing; Reign of Christ; Salvation/Redemption Used With Tune: TEMPUS ADEST FLORIDUM

Behold, a Branch Is Growing
Author: Harriet R. K. Spaeth, 1845-1925; John C. Mattes, 1876-1948 Meter: 7.6.7.6.6.7.6 Appears in 14 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 23:5-6 Lyrics: 1 Behold, a branch is growing
of loveliest form and grace!
As prophets sang, foreknowing,
it springs from Jesse's race
and now begins to flow'r
in midst of coldest winter,
at deepest midnight hour.
2 Isaiah had foretold it
in words of promise sure,
and Mary's arms enfold it,
a virgin meek and pure.
Through God's eternal will
this child to her is given
at midnight calm and still.
3 This flow'r, whose fragrance tender
with sweetness fills the air,
dispels with glorious splendor
the darkness ev'rywhere.
True man, and yet true God,
from sin and death he saves us
and lightens ev'ry load.
4 0 Savior, child of Mary,
who felt our human woes,
O Savior, King of glory,
who conquered all our foes,
bring us at last, we pray,
to the bright courts of heaven
and to the endless day.
