Author: C. Wesley (1707-1788 ) Appears in 302 hymnals Topics: Last Sunday after Pentecost Citizens of Heaven Lyrics: 1 Jesus! the name high over all in hell or earth or sky; angels again before it fall and devils fear and fly, and devils fear and fly. 2 Jesus! the name to sinners dear, the name to sinners given; it scatters all their guilty fear, it turns their hell to heaven, it turns their hell to heaven. 3 Jesus the prisoner's fetters breaks and bruises Satan's head; power into strengthless souls he speaks and life into the dead, and life into the dead. 4 O that the world might taste and see the riches of his grace! The arms of love that welcome me would all mankind embrace, would all mankind embrace. 5 His righteousness alone I show, his saving grace proclaim; this is my work on earth below, to cry 'Behold the Lamb!' to cry 'Behold the Lamb!' 6 Happy if with my final breath I may but gasp his name, preach him to all, and cry in death, 'Christ Jesus is the Lamb!' 'Christ Jesus is the Lamb!' Scripture: John 1:29 Used With Tune: LYDIA

God, we name you sovereign Lord! Mighty King whom angels worship, Father, by your church adored: all creation shows your glory, heaven and earth draw near your throne singing 'Holy, holy, holy,' Lord of hosts, and God alone! 2 True apostles, faithful prophets, saints who set their world ablaze, martyrs, once unknown, unheeded, join one growing song of praise, while your church on earth confesses one majestic Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, God, our hope eternally. 3 Jesus Christ, the king of glory, everlasting Son of God, humble was your virgin mother, hard the lonely path you trod: by your cross is sin defeated, hell confronted face to face, heaven opened to believers, sinners justified by grace. 4 Christ, at God's right hand victorious, you will judge the world you made; Lord, in mercy help your servants for whose freedom you have paid: raise us up from dust to glory, guard us from all sin today; King enthroned above all praises, save your people, God, we pray.
