Begone Unbelief

Author: John Newton Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 256 hymnals First Line: Begone unbelief, my Savior is near Lyrics: 1. Begone unbelief, my Savior is near, And for my relief will surely appear: By prayer let me wrestle, and He wilt perform, With Christ in the vessel, I smile at the storm. 2. Though dark be my way, since He is my Guide, ’Tis mine to obey, ’tis His to provide; Though cisterns be broken, and creatures all fail, The Word He has spoken shall surely prevail. 3. His love in time past forbids me to think He’ll leave me at last in trouble to sink; Each sweet Ebenezer I have in review, Confirms His good pleasure to help me quite through. 4. Determined to save, He watched o’er my path, When Satan’s blind slave, I sported with death; And can He have taught me to trust in His name, And thus far have brought me, to put me to shame? 5. Why should I complain of want or distress, Temptation or pain? He told me no less: The heirs of salvation, I know from His Word, Through much tribulation must follow their Lord. 6. How bitter that cup, no heart can conceive, Which He drank quite up, that sinners might live! His way was much rougher, and darker than mine; Did Jesus thus suffer, and shall I repine? 7. Since all that I meet shall work for my good, The bitter is sweet, the medicine is food; Though painful at present, wilt cease before long, And then, O! how pleasant, the conqueror’s song!

To Jesus Our Captain

Author: Nathaniel Barnaby, 1829-1915 Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: To Jesus our captain, to Jesus our King Lyrics: 1 To Jesus our captain, to Jesus our King To Jesus in glory, our praises we bring; Our captain has conquered, come see in His train The foes He has captured, the sins He has slain. 2 We too are His soldiers, we arm for the fight, And wide waves our banner, our armor is bright; We’ve breastplate and helmet, and broadsword and shield, Our sins are the foemen, our lives are the field. 3 Our king sits triumphant, and close at His feet Are thousands of children from alley and street; From palace and cottage, from mountain and plain, From earth passed to Heaven, they stand in His train. 4 The King in His glory, they see and adore, The King in His beauty, His greatness and power; The King in His mercy, compassion and love, We see, and press forward to meet Him above. 5 Then let us adore Him and bow at His feet, And give Him the glory and praise that is meet; Let joyful hosannas unceasing arise To swell the full chorus that gladdens the skies.

Omnipotent King, Who Reignest On High

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Omnipotent King, who reignest on high, Thy mercy we sing, Thy haters defy; We give Thee Thy glory, though Satan oppose, And gladly adore Thee, in sight of Thy foes. 2 The reprobates dare their master proclaim, And loudly declare their sin and their shame; Presumptuous in evil, their god they avow, Their father the devil, and worship him now. 3 And shall we not sing our master and Lord, Our maker and king, by angels adored? Our merciful Savior, who brought us to God, And purchased us favor by shedding His blood. 4 Yes, Lord, we adore, though all men deny, And tell of Thy power, triumphantly nigh: O Jesus, we bless Thee, our ruler proclaim, And gladly confess Thee, for ever the same. 5 In tumult and noise, we sing of Thy grace, More mighty our joys, more hearty our praise; Our triumphs are higher, and warmer our zeal, And Thee ever nigher than Satan we feel. 6 The sinners we see, who Satan obey, Much happier we, much wiser than they; Our master is greater, He makes us His heirs, And O how much better our wages than theirs! 7 Our Jesus is near, whenever we sing, Among us we hear the shout of a king; Our voices are stronger than theirs who blaspheme, And surely we longer shall triumph than them.
