Glorious things of thee are spoken

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,311 hymnals Topics: Holy Communion Introits Lyrics: Glorious things of thee are spoken, Sion, city of our God; He whose word cannot be broken, Formed thee for his own abode; On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, Thou may'st smile at all thy foes. See, the streams of living waters Springing from eternal love, Well supply thy sons and daughters, And all fear of want remove. Who can faint, when such a river Ever will their thirst assuage? Grace which, like the Lord, the giver, Never fails from age to age. 426 Round each habitation hovering, See the cloud and fire appear For a glory and a covering, Showing that the Lord is near. Thus deriving from their banner, Light by night, and shade by day, Safe they feed upon the manna, Which he gives them when they pray. Blest inhabitants of Sion, Washed in the Redeemer's blood! Jesus, whom their souls rely on, Makes them kings and priests to God. 'Tis his love his people raises Over self to reign as kings: And as priests, his solemn praises Each for a thank-offering brings.

God, my King, Thy might confessing

Author: Richard Mant Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 132 hymnals Topics: Holy Communion Introits Lyrics: God, my King, thy might confessing, Ever will I bless thy Name; Day by day thy throne addressing, Still will I thy praise proclaim. Honor great our God befitteth; Who his majesty can reach? Age to age his works transmitteth, Age to age his power shall teach. They shall talk of all thy glory, On thy might and greatness dwell, Speak of thy dread acts the story, And thy deeds of wonder tell. Nor shall fail from memory's treasure Works by love and mercy wrought, Works of love surpassing measure, Works of mercy passing thought. Full of kindness and compassion, Slow to anger, vast in love, God is good to all creation; All his works his goodness prove. All thy works, O Lord, shall bless thee; Thee shall all thy saints adore: King supreme shall they confess thee, And proclaim thy sovereign power. Praise the Father, earth and heaven, Praise the Son, the Spirit praise, As it was, and is, be given Glory through eternal days. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 145 Used With Tune: STUTTGART

Come, my soul, thy suit prepare

Author: John Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 715 hymnals Topics: Holy Communion Introits Lyrics: Come, my soul, thy suit prepare; Jesus loves to answer prayer; He himself has bid thee pray, Therefore will not say thee, Nay. Thou art coming to a King: Large petitions with thee bring; For his grace and power are such, None can ever ask too much. With my burden I begin: Lord, remove this load of sin; Let thy blood, for sinners spilt, Set my conscience free from guilt. 279 Lord, I come to thee for rest; Take possession of my breast; There thy blood-bought right maintain, And without a rival reign. While I am a pilgrim here, Let thy love my spirit cheer; As my guide, my guard, my friend, Lead me to my journey's end. Show me what I have to do; Every hour my strength renew; Let me live a life of faith; Let me die thy people's death. Holy Father, Holy Son, And Holy Spirit, Three in One! Glory, as of old, to thee, Now, and evermore shall be. Amen. Used With Tune: BRASTED

Blest be the tie that binds

Author: John Fawcett Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2,338 hymnals Topics: Holy Communion Introits Lyrics: Blest be the tie that binds Our hearts in Jesus' love: The fellowship of Christian minds Is like to that above. Before our Father's throne We pour united prayers; Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one; Our comforts and our cares. 446 We share our mutual woes, Our mutual burdens bear; And often for each other flows The sympathizing tear. When we at death must part, Not like the world's, our pain; But one in Christ, and one in heart, We part to meet again. From sorrow, toil, and pain, And sin, we shall be free; And perfect love and friendship reign Throughout eternity. Used With Tune: BOYLSTON
