joy of heaven, to earth come down,
fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
2 Jesu, thou art all compassion,
pure unbounded love thou art;
visit us with thy salvation,
enter every trembling heart.
3 Come, almighty to deliver,
let us all thy grace receive;
suddenly return, and never,
never more thy temples leave.

serve thee as thy hosts above;
pray, and praise thee, without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.
5 Finish then thy new creation:
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee;

till in heaven we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love, and praise.

O for a heart to praise my God
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: Together in Song #568 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Ephesians 3:14-17 Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God,

a heart that always feels your blood
so freely shed for me:

my great Redeemer's throne,
where only Christ is heard to speak,
where Jesus reigns alone:
3 a humble, lowly, contrite heart,
believing, true, and clean,
which neither life nor death can part
from Christ who dwells within:
4 a heart in every thought renewed,
and full of love divine,
perfect, and right, and pure, and good —
your life revealed in mine.
5 Your nature, gracious Lord, impart:
come quickly from above;
write your new name upon my heart,
your new best name of love. Topics: Assurance; God's Love to Us; Holiness; Personal Response to Jesus; Renewal Languages: English Tune Title: LLOYD
O for a heart to praise my God
O worship the King all-glorious above
Author: Robert Grant, 1779-1838 Hymnal: Together in Song #133 (1999) Meter: 5.5.5.5.6.5.6.5 Scripture: Ephesians 3:18-19 Lyrics: 1 O worship the King all-glorious above,
O gratefully sing his power and his love:
our shield and defender, the ancient of days,
pavilioned in splendour, and girded with praise.
2 O tell of his might, O sing of his grace,
whose robe is the light, whose canopy space;
his chariots of wrath the deep thunder-clouds form,
and dark is his path on the wings of the storm.
3 The earth with its store of wonders untold,
Almighty, your power has founded of old,
established it fast by a changeless decree,
and round it has cast, like a mantle, the sea.
4 Your bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light,
it streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
and sweetly distils in the dew and the rain.
5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
in you do we trust, nor find you to fail:
your mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our maker, defender, redeemer and friend.
6 O measureless might, ineffable love.
While angels delight to hymn you above,
the humbler creation, though faltering their praise,
With true adoration shall sing all their days.

Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee
Author: Edward Caswall; Bernard of Clairvaux, 12th century Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #230 (1957) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Ephesians 3:19 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the very thought of Thee
With sweetness fills my breast;
But sweeter far Thy face to see,
And in Thy presence rest.
2 Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame,
Nor can the memory find
A sweeter sound than Thy blest name,
O Savior of mankind!
3 O Hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek,
To those who ask, how kind Thou art!
How good to those who seek!
4 But what to those who find? Ah, this
Nor tongue nor pen can show;
The love of Jesus, what it is
None but His loved ones know.
5 Jesus, our only joy be Thou,
As Thou our prize wilt be;
Jesus, be Thou our glory now,
And through eternity.
Amen. Tune Title: ST. AGNES
