Victory over death thro' Christ

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 70 hymnals First Line: When death appears before my sight Lyrics: 1 When death appears before my sight In all his dire array, Unequal to the dreadful sight, My courage dies away. 2 But see my glorious Leader nigh! My Lord, my Saviour lives: Before him death's pale terrors fly, And my faint heart revives. 3 he left his dazzling throne above, He met the tyrant's dart, And (O amazing pow'r of love!) Receiv'd it in his heart. 4 No more, O grim destroyer, boast Thy universal sway; To heav'n-born souls thy sting is lost, Thy night is turn'd to day. 5 Lord, I commit my soul to thee, Accept the sacred trust, Receive this nobler part of me, And watch my sleeping dust: 6 'Till that illustrious morning come, when all thy saints shall rise, And, cloth'd in full immortal bloom, Attend thee to the skies.

Crucifixion to the world by the cross of Christ

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2,000 hymnals First Line: When I survey the wond'rous cross Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wond'rous cross On which the Prince of glory dy'd, My richest gain I count but loss, And mourning weep o'er all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ my God, All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood. 3 See, from his head, his hands, his feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down! Did e'er such love and sorrow meet; Or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 His dying crimson, like a robe, Spreads o'er his body on the tree; Then am I dead to all the globe, And all the globe is dead to me. 5 Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.

Christ's Resurrection a Pledge of ours

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 77 hymnals First Line: When I the holy grave survey Lyrics: 1 When I the holy grave survey, Where once my Saviour deign'd to lie; I see fulfill'd what prophets say, And all the power of death defy. 2 This empty tomb shall now proclaim How weak the bands of conquer'd death: Sweet pledge, that all who trust his name Shall rise, and draw immortal breath. 3 Jesus, once number'd with the dead, Unseals his eyes to sleep no more; And ever lives, their cause to plead, For whom the pains of death he bore. 4 Thy risen Lord, my soul, behold; See the rich diadem he wears! Thou too shalt bear an harp of gold, To crown thy joy when he appears. 5 Though in the dust I lay my head, Yet, gracious God, thou wilt not leave My flesh forever with the dead, Nor lose thy children in the grave.

Rejoicing in a revival of religion

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 32 hymnals First Line: Hark! hear the sound, on earth 'tis found Lyrics: 1 Hark! hear the sound, on earth 'tis found, My soul delights to hear Of dying love, that's from above, Of pardon bought so dear. 2 God's ministers, a flaming fire Are passing through the land, The voice is "hear, repent and fear, King Jesus is at hand." 3 Young converts sing and praise their king, And bless God's holy name; Whilst older saints leave their complaints And joy to join the theme. 4 Convinc'd of sin, men now begin To call upon the Lord, Trembling they pray, and mourn the day In which they scorn'd his word. 5 God's chariot rolls, it frights the souls Of those who hate the truth; And saint in pray'r, cry, Lord draw near, Have mercy on the youth! 6 Pour down a show'r of thy great pow'r On ev'ry aching heart; Of all who try, and humbly cry, That they may have a part. 7 Come sinners, all hear now God's call, And pray with one accord! Saints, raise your songs--with joyful tongues, To hail th' approaching Lord. Topics: Revival Rejoicing in

Are there few that shall be saved?

Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 50 hymnals First Line: Destruction's dangerous road Lyrics: 1 Destruction's dangerous road What multitudes pursue! While that which leads the soul to God, Is know or sought by few. 2 Believes find the way Thro' Christ the living gate; But those who hate this holy way Complain it is too strait. 3 If self must be deny'd, And sin no more caress'd, They rather choose the way that's wide, And strive to think it best. 4 Encompass'd by a throng, On numbers they depend; They say so many can't be wrong, And miss a happy end. 5 But hear the Saviour's word, "Strive for the heavn'ly gate, many will call upon the Lord, And find their crys too late." 6 Obey the gospel call And enter while you may; The flock of Christ is always small, And none are safe but they. 7 Lord, open sinners' eyes, Their awful state to see; And make them, ere the storm arise, To thee for safety flee.

Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 423 hymnals First Line: Did Christ o'er sinners weep? Lyrics: 1 Did Christ o'er sinners weep? And shall our cheeks be dry? Let floods of penitential grief Burst forth from every eye. 2 The son of God in tears Angels with wonder see! Be thou astonish'd, O my soul, He shed those tears for thee. 3 He wept, that we might weep; Each sin demands a tear; In heav'n alone no sin is found, And there's no weeping there. 4 Joy beams in ev'ry eye, And fills each holy heart; All join to sound the triumph high In praise to bear their part.

Strength from a view of the Cross

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 71 hymnals First Line: When I the blest Redeemer see Lyrics: 1 When I the blest Redeemer see All bleeding on th' accursed tree; Satan and sin no more can move, For I am all transform'd to love. 2 His thorns and nails, pierce thro' my heart, In ev'ry groan I bear a part; I view his wounds with streaming eyes, But see! he bows his head and dies! 3 Come, sinners, view the Lamb of God, Wounded and dead, and bath'd in blood! Behold his side, and venture near, The spring of endless life is here. 4 Here I forget my cares and pains; I drink, yet still my thirst remains; Only the fountain-head above, Can satisfy the thirst with love. 6 Oh, that I thus could always fee! Lord, more and more thy love reveal! Then my glad tongue shall loud proclaim The grace and glory of thy name. 6 Thy name dispels my guilt and fear, Revives my heart, and charms my ear; Affords a balm for ev'ry wound, Then I with love thy praise resound.
