O that I had a seraph's fire
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 O that I had a seraph's fire,
His rapt'rous song and golden lyre,
To chant the love and grace supreme,
Reveal'd as in the gospel scheme.
2 Here's pardon full, for sins that's past--
It matters not how black their cast;
And, O my soul, with wonder view,
For sins to come, here's pardon too.
3 When Jesus died, our debts were paid,
Our sins laid on this Scape-Goat's head;
Were to the trackless desert drove,
And buried in eternal love.
4 In this abyss of love profound,
When sought for they shall not be found;
Hid from Jehovah's piercing eye,
There in oblivion's shades, they lie.
Scripture: Leviticus 16:9
O that I had a seraph's fire
Let the old Heathens tune their Song
Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Let the old Heathens tune their Song
Of great Diana and of Jove,
But the sweet Theme that moves my Tongue
Is my Redeemer and his Love.
2 Behold a God descends and dies,
To save my Soul from gaping Hell;
How the black Gulph where Satan lies
Yawn'd to receive me when I fell!
3 How Justice frown'd, and Vengeance stood,
To drive me down to endless Pain!
But the great Son propos'd his Blood,
And heav'nly Wrath grew mild again.
4 Infinite Lover, gracious Lord,
To Thee be endless Honour giv'n;
Thy wond'rous Name shall be ador'd
Round the wide Earth, and wider Heav'n.
Let the old Heathens tune their Song
All glorious God, what hymns of praise
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: God the Son Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 All glorious God, what hymns of praise
Shall our transported voices raise!
What ardent love and zeal are due,
While heaven stands open to our view!
2 Once we were fallen, and oh how low!
Just on the brink of endless woe:
When Jesus, from the realms above.
Borne on the wings of boundless love,
3 Scattered the shades of death and night,
And spread around His heavenly light:
By Him what wondrous grace is shown
To souls impoverished and undone!
4 He shows, beyond these mortal shores,
A bright inheritance as ours;
Where saints in light our coming wait,
To share their holy, happy state.
All glorious God, what hymns of praise
Thou sweet gliding Kedron, by thy silver streams
Appears in 193 hymnals Topics: God the Son Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Thou sweet gliding Kedron, by thy silver streams
Our Saviour at midnight, when moonlight's pale beams
Shone bright on the waters, would frequently stray,
And lose in thy murmurs the toils of the day.
2 How damp were the vapors that fell on His head!
How hard was His pillow! how humble His bed!
The angels, astonished, grew sad at the sight,
And followed their Master with solemn delight.
3 O garden of Olivet, thou dear honored spot,
The fame of thy wonder shall ne'er be forgot;
The theme most transporting to seraphs above;
The triumph of sorrow--the triumph of love.
4 Come, saints and adore Him; come, bow at His feet!
Oh, give Him the glory, the praise that is meet;
Let joyful hosannas unceasingly arise,
And join the full chorus that gladdens the skies.
Thou sweet gliding Kedron, by thy silver streams
Jesus, with all thy Saints above
Appears in 69 hymnals Topics: Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Jesus, with all thy Saints above,
My Tongue would bear her Part,
Would sound aloud thy saving Love,
And sing thy bleeding Heart.
2 Blest be the Lamb, my dearest Lord,
Who bought me with his Blood,
And quench'd his Father's flaming Sword
In his own vital Flood.
3 The Lamb that freed my captive Soul
From Satan's heavy Chains,
And sent the Lion down to howl.
Where Hell and Horror reigns.
4 All Glory to the dying Lamb,
And never-ceasing Praise,
While Angels live to know his Name,
Or Saints to feel his Grace.
Jesus, with all thy Saints above
Joy to the world! the Lord has come!
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,894 hymnals Topics: God the Son Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Joy to the world! the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King:
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And heaven and nature sing.
2 Joy to the earth! the Savior reigns,
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy.
3 No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found.
4 He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love.
Joy to the world! the Lord has come!

And sing the wonders of Thy grace:
Thy power conveys our blessings down
From God the Father and the Son.
2 Enlightened by Thine heavenly ray,
Our shades and darkness turn to day:
Thine inward teachings make us know
Our danger and our refuge too.
3 Thy glorious power works within,
And breaks the chains of reigning sin,
Doth our imperious lusts subdue,
And form our wretched hearts anew.
4 The troubled conscience knows Thy voice,
Thy cheering words awake our joys;
Thy words allay the stormy wind,
And calm the surges of the mind.
Eternal Spirit! we confess
