How long shall Death the Tyrant reign

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #XXXII (1801) Lyrics: 1 How long shall Death the Tyrant reign, And triumph o'er the just, While the rich blood of Martyrs slain Lies mingled with the dust; 2 When will the tedious night be gone? When will our Lord appear? Our fond desires would pray him down, Our love embrace him here. 3 Let faith arise and climb the hills, And from afar descry How distant are his chariot wheels, And tell how fast they fly. 4 Lo! I behold the scattering shades, The dawn of Heav'n appears! The sweet immortal morning spreads Its blushes round the spheres, 5 I see the Lord of Glory come, And flaming guards around; The Skies divide to make him room, The trumpet shakes the ground. 6 I hear the voice— "ye dead arise," And straight the graves obey, And waking Saints with joyful eyes Salute the expected day. 7 They leave the ground, and on the wing Rais'd to the middle air, In shining garments meet their King, And lo adore him there. 8 O may my humble spirit stand Amongst them clothed in white: The meanest place at thy right hand Is infinite delight. 9 How will our joy and wonder rise, When our returning King, Shall bear us homeward thro' the skies On love's triumphant wing!

How lost was my condition

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #III (1801) Lyrics: 1 How lost was my condition, Till Jesus made me whole; There is but one physician Can cure a sin sick soul: Next door to death he found me, And plukt me from the grave; To tell to all around me, His wond'rous power to save! 2 Of men great skill possessing, I thought a cure to gain, But that prov'd more distressing, And added to my pain: Some said that nothing ail'd me; Some gave me up for lost Thus every refuge fail'd me, And all my hopes was cross'd. 3 At length this great physician, How matchless in his power, Accepted my petition, And undertook my cure; First gave me sight to view him, For sin, my sight had seal'd; Then bid me look unto him, I look'd and I was heal'd. 4 A bleeding, dying Jesus, Seen by an eye of Faith; At once from sin it frees us, And saves our souls from death! Come then to this physician, His help he'll freely give: He makes no hard condition, 'Tis only, look and live. Languages: English

In thee we now together came

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #XIII (1801) Lyrics: 1 In thee we now together come, In singleness of heart; We meet O Jesus in thy name, And in thy name we part; We part in body, not in mind: Our minds continue one; And each to each in Jesus join'd, We hand to hand go on. 2 Subsists as in us all one soul; No pow'r can make us twain: Tho' mountains rise and oceans roll, To sever us in vain. Present we still in spirit are, And intimately nigh; While on the wings of faith and pray'r We each to other fly. 3 In Jesus Christ together we In heav'nly places sit: Cloath'd with the sun, we smile to see The moon beneath our feet. Our life is hid with Christ in God: Our life shall soon appear; And shed his glories all abroad In all his members here. 4 This heav'nly treasure here we have In a vile house of clay, But he shall to the utmost save, And keep it to that day: Our souls are in his mighty hand, And he will keep them still; And you and I shall surely stand With him on Zion's hill. 5 Him eye to eye we there shall see, Our face like his will shine: O what a glorious company When saints and angels join! O what a joyful meeting there! In robes of white array'd; Palms in our hands we all shall bear, And crowns upon our head! 6 Then let us lawfully contend, And fight our passage through; Bear in our faithful minds the end, And keep the prize in view: Then let us hasten to the day When all shall be brought home! Come, O Redeemer come away! O Jesus, quickly come! Languages: English

Jerusalem my happy home

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #VIII (1801) Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, my happy home, O how I long for thee! When will my sorrows have an end? Thy joys when shall I see? 2 Thy walls are all of precious stone, Most glorious to behold; Thy gates are richly set with pearl, Thy streets are pav'd with gold. 3 Thy gardens and thy pleasant green, My study long have been; Such sparkling light by human sight, Have never yet been seen. 4 If Heaven be thus so glorious Lord, Why should I stay from thence? What folly's this that I should dread To die and go from hence! 5 Reach down, reach down, thine arm of grace, And cause me to ascend, Where congregations ne'er break up, And sabbaths never end. 6 Jesus my love to glory's gone, Him will I go and see; And all my brethren here below, Will soon come after me. 7 My friends I bid you all adieu, I leave you in God's care, And if I never more see you, Go on I'll meet you there. 8 There we shall meet and no more part, And Heaven shall ring with praise, While Jesus's love in every heart, Shall tune the song free grace. 9 Millions of years around may run, Our song shall still go on, To praise the Father and the Son, And Spirit, three in One. 10 When we've been there ten thousand years Bright shining as the Sun, We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we first begun.

Lo! we see the sign appearing

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #LIII (1801) Lyrics: 1 Lo! we see the sign appearing, Jesus comes the Judge severe, Hell is trembling with a quaking Sinners shrink with awful fear. Come to judgment! come to judgment! Stand your awful doom to hear. 2 See the world in flames is burning, Mountains and hills away they fly, The moon in blood, the stars are flaming, Comets blazing through the sky. Thunder rolling! thunders rolling! Sinners now for help they cry. 3 From the general conflagration, Mounts the righteous up on high, Gain the hope of their salvation, Live with God no more to die, Hallelujah, hallelujah, Glory to the Lamb they cry. 4 Stop my soul, look back and wonder See the wicked left behind, Hear them crying, weeping, wailing, for a moment's ease to find, Doom'd to sorrow, doom'd to sorrw, In the lake of hell confin'd Languages: English

Lord what a wretched land is this

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #LII (1801) Lyrics: 1 Lord what a wretched land is this, That yields us no supply? No cheering fruits, no wholesome trees, Nor streams of living joy. 2 But pricking thorns thro' all the ground, And mortal poisons grow; And all the rivers that are found, With dangerous waters flow. 3 Yet the dear path to thine abode Lies thro' this horrid land; Lord! we would keep the heav'nly road, And run at thy command. 4 Our souls shall tread the desart through With undiverted feet; And faith and flaming zeal subdue The terrors that we meet. 5 A thousand savage beasts of prey Around the forest roam; But Judah's lion guards the way, And guides the strangers home. 6 Long nights and darkness dwell below, With scarce a twinkling ray; But the bright world to which we go Is everlasting day. 7 By glimm'ring hopes and gloomy fears We trace the sacred road; Thro' dismal deeps and dang'rous snares We make our way to God. 8 Our journey is a thorny maze, But we march upward still; Forget these troubles of the ways, And reach at Zion's hill. 9 See the kind angels at the gates, Inviting us to come; There Jesus the fore-runner waits, To welcome trav'llers home. 10 There on a green and flow'ry mount Our weary souls shall sit; And with transporting joys recount The labours of our feet. 11 No vain discourse shall fill our tongue, Nor trifles vex our ear; Infinite grace shall be our song, And God rejoice to hear. 12 Eternal glories to the king That brought us safely through; Our tongues shall never cease to sing, And endless praise renew.

Lord! when together here we meet

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #XXIII (1801) Lyrics: 1 Lord! when together here we meet, And taste thy heav'nly grace; Thy smiles are so divinely sweet, We're loth to leave the place. 2 Yet Father, since it is thy will That we must part again, O let thy special presence still, With every one remain. 3 Thus let us all in Christ be one, Bound with the cords of love, Till we around thy glorious throne, Shall joyfully meet above. 4 There sin and sorrow from each heart, Shall then for ever fly, And not one thought that we should part Once intercept our joy. 5 There void of all distracting pains Our spirits ne'er shall tire; But in Seraphic Heav'nly strains, Redeeming love admire. 6 And thus through all eternity, Upon the Heav'nly shore, The great mysterious One in Three Jehovah we'll adore.

My thoughts on awful subjects roll

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #XLVII (1801) Lyrics: 1 My thoughts on awful subjects roll, Damnation and the dead; What horrors seize the guilty soul Upon a dying bed! 2 Lingering about these mortal shores, She makes a long delay, Till like a flood, with rapid force, Death sweeps the wretch away. 3 Then swift and dreadful she descends Down to the fiery coast, Amongst abominable fiends Herself a frighted ghost. 4 There endless crowds of sinners lie, And darkness makes their chains; Tortur'd with keen despair they cry, Yet wait for fiercer pains. 5 Not all their anguish and their blood For their old guilt atones, Nor the compassion of a God Shall hearken to their groans. 6 Amazing grace, that kept my breath, Nor bid my soul remove, Till I had learn'd my Saviour's death, And well insur'd his love.

Now begins the Heav'nly theme

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #XXXI (1801) Lyrics: 1 Now begins the Heav'nly theme, Sing aloud in Jesus's name; Ye who Jesus's goodness prove, Triumph in redeeming love. 2 Ye who see the Father's grace Beaming in the Saviour's face, While to Canaan on ye move Bless and praise redeeming love. 3 Mourning souls, dry up your tears, Banish all your guilty fears, See your guilt and curse remove, Cancel'd by redeeming love. 4 Yes, alas, who long have been Willing slaves of death and sin, Now from bliss no longer rove, Stop and taste redeeming love. 5 Welcome all by sin opprest, Welcome to a sacred rest; Nothing brought him from above, Nothing but redeeming love. 6 He subdu'd th' infernal pow'rs His tremendous foe and ours, To their cursed Empire drove, Mighty in redeeming love. 7 Hither then your music bring, Strike aloud each joyful string; Mortals join the hosts above; Join to praise redeeming love.

Now the Saviour stands a pleading

Hymnal: CSSH1801 #XLV (1801) Lyrics: 1 Now the Saviour stands a pleading At the sinners bolted heart; Now in heaven is interceding, Undertaking sinner's part. Chorus: Sinners can you hate that Saviour, Can you thrust him form your arms; Once he died for your behaviour, Now he calls you to his charms. 2 Now he pleads his sweat and bloodshed, Shews his wounded hands and feet; Father save them tho' they're blood red, Raise them to an heavenly seat. [Chorus] 3 Sinners, hear your God and Saviour, Hear his gracious voice to-day; Turn from all your base behaviour, Now return repent and pray. [Chorus] 4 Open now your hearts before him, Bid your Saviour welcome in; Now receive and love adore him, Take a full discharge from sin. [Chorus] 5 Now he's waiting to be gracious, Now he stands and looks on thee; See what kindness love and pity, Shines around, on you and me. [Chorus] 6 Come! for all things now are ready, Yet there's room for many more; O ye blind ye lame and needy, Come to grace's boundless store. [Chorus] Languages: English
