Now begin the heavenly theme
Ó, Aggódó Lélek, Ím, Békesség Néked!
Author: Charles Wesley; Anna Piroska Williams Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Ó, aggódó lélek, ím, békesség Néked Lyrics: 1 Ó, aggódó lélek, ím, békesség Néked,
Ki embernek formált, így szól: "Ne félj!"
Az Úr neveden hívott téged,
Az övé vagy, bízzál, remélj!
Ki drága vérén megváltott,
Ő hűséges, őrző Pásztorod!
2 Ha utam nagy vízen kell átvigyen engem,
Mit Ő ígért, kérem: "Uram, légy velem!"
A hullámok ím, nem érnek el,
A folyó el nem borít engem.
Bár rémít az áradat—félnem nem kell:
Egy cseppet sem árthat, hisz az Úr közel!
3 Nem kétkedő szívvel, ám gyermeki hittel—
Bár tűzbe visz utam—bátran léphetek:
A tűz tűznek lenni elfelejt,
A sok-sok lángnyelv hűs táncot lejt.
A láng meg nem perzsel—az Úr oltalom!
A Megtartó, hű Úr az én Megtartóm!
4 Ám el ne hagyj engem, hatalmas Megmentőm,
Ha rám törnek próbák, légy hű őrizőm!
Rejts el kezed mélyén engemet,
Hadd hirdessem majd mentő Neved!
Karod legyen oltalmam, rejtekhelyem,
Ki nem ragad onnan senki, semmi sem!
5 Mert Te hívtál engem: "Jöjj hozzám a vízen!"
S mert jól tudom: jó vagy, és megbízható,
Az élet viharzó tengere
Szent szavadra, lám, már járható!
De kétségek, félelmek riogatnak,
Mint ásító örvények tátonganak.
6 S ha zúgó szél hangja a szívem riasztja,
S mély bánat hulláma már majd’ eltemet,
A szívem ijedten felkiált:
"Uram, tarts meg! Elsüllyedek!"
Egy jól ismert hang szól és békét teremt:
"Csak bízzatok! Én vagyok! Ne féljetek!" Used With Tune: BROWNWELL Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1739

They Seek The Babe
Author: Mary N. Meigs Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: They seek the Babe—no regal state Lyrics: 1 They seek the Babe—no regal state—
No princely pomp are His the while;
On Him no bright-robed courtiers wait,
But humble peasants watch His smile:
The magi kneel, and shepherds bend,
To Him who angels did attend.
2 He has resigned a crown of light—
Laid all His glorious vestments by—
And shrouding in this world of night
The splendors of the Deity,
Hath come to succor, save, and bless,
His creatures in their wretchedness.
3 Savior, again we hail the day,
When brightly rose Thy natal star;
And join the angels’ Heaven-taught lay,
Which in the azure fields afar—
The music of celestial spheres,
Rang on the shepherds’ listening ears.
4 And lo, from nature’s hand we bear
An offering for Thy holy shrine;
With evergreen, and garlands fair,
High arch and lofty pillar twine:
And joyfully our paeans raise,
Redeemer, Savior, in Thy praise.
5 And though no bright, peculiar gem
Is hung upon our midnight sky—
Like that which shone o’er Bethlehem,
What time the heavenly hosts were nigh—
Thy Word our polar star shall be,
Guiding us on, to Heaven and Thee.

They Seek The Babe
Eye Hath Not Seen, Ear Hath Not Heard
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Eye hath not seen, ear hath not heard
What Christ hath for His saints prepared,
Who conquer thro’ their Savior’s might,
Who sink into perfection’s height,
And trample death beneath their feet,
And gladly die their Lord to meet.
2 They on the hidden manna feed
The heavenly, true, angelic Bread,
Who gained on earth a partial taste
Of bliss too exquisite to last,
Obtain His fullest joy above,
And all the sweetness of His love.
3 Christ shall on them a name bestow,
Which no embodied saint can know,
A new inexplicable name
With God essentially the same!
And what it is they they conceive,
When Christ doth all His fullness give.
4 Dost thou desire to know and see
What thy mysterious name shall be?
Contending for thy heavenly home,
Thy latest foe, in death o’ercome;
’Till then thou searchest out in vain
What only conquest can explain.
5 But when the Lord hath closed thine eyes,
And opened them in paradise,
Receiving thy new name unknown,
Thou read’st it wrote on the white stone,
Wrote on thy pure humanity

'Tis Come, The Time So Oft Foretold
Author: Thomas Grinfield Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: ’Tis come, the time so oft foretold Lyrics: 1 ’Tis come, the time so oft foretold,
The time eternal love forecast;
Four thousand years of hope have rolled,
And God hath sent His Son at last;
Let heaven, let earth, adore the plan;
Glory to God, and grace to man!
2 To swains that watched their nightly fold,
Of lowly lot, of lowly mind,
To these the tidings first were told,
That spoke of hope for lost mankind;
God gives His Son, no more He can;
Glory to God, and grace to man!
3 And well to shepherds first ’tis known,
The Lord of angels comes from high,
In humblest aspect like their own,
Good Shepherd, for His sheep to die:
O height and depth, which who shall span?
Glory to God, and grace to man!
4 Fain with those meek, those happy swains,
Lord, I would hear that angel choir;
Till, ravished by celestial strains,
My heart responds with holy fire:
That holy fire Thy breath must fan;
Glory to God, and grace to man! Used With Tune: BROWNWELL Text Sources: A Century of Original Sacred Songs (London: 1836)
'Tis Come, The Time So Oft Foretold
Jesu, The Growing Work Is Thine
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesu, the growing work is Thine,
And who shall hinder its success?
In vain the alien armies join
Thy glorious Gospel to suppress,
And vow, with Satan’s aid, to o’erthrow,
The work Thy grace revives below.
2 The wary world, as Julian wise,
Wise with the wisdom from beneath,
A while its milder malice tries,
And lets these mad enthusiasts breathe,
Breathe to infect their purest air,
And spread the plague of virtue there.
3 Wondering the calm despisers stand,
And dream that they the respite give.
Restrained by Thine o’erruling hand,
They kindly suffer us to live,
Live to defy their master’s frown,
And turn his kingdom upside down.
4 Still the old dragon bites his chain,
Not yet commissioned from on high;
Rage the fierce Pharisees in vain;
"Away with them," the zealots cry,
And hoary Caiaphas exclaims,
And Bonner dooms us to the flames.
5 But our great God, who reigns on high,
Shall laugh their haughty rage to scorn,
Scatter their evil with His eye,
Or to His praise their fierceness turn;
While all their efforts to remove
His Church, shall stablish her in love.
6 Yes, Lord, Thy promise-word is true,
Our sacred hairs are numbered all;
Though earth and hell our lives pursue,
Without Thy leave we cannot fall;
And if Thou slack the murderer’s chain,
We suffer but with Thee to reign.
7 Our sufferings shall advance Thy cause,
And blunt the persecutor’s sword,
Dispread the victory of Thy cross,
And glorify our conquering Lord.
Evil shall work for Sion’s good:
Its seed is still the martyr’s blood. Used With Tune: BROWNWELL Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems (Bristol, England, Felix Farley, 1739) Vol. II
