Author: Samuel Medley, 1738-1799 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 473 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 4:14-16 Lyrics: 1 I know that my Redeemer lives!
What joy this blest assurance gives!
He lives, he lives, who once was dead;
he lives, my ever-living Head!

he lives eternally to save;
he lives exalted, throned above;
he lives to rule his church in love.
3 He lives to bless me with his love;
he lives to plead for me above;
he lives my hungry soul to feed;
he lives to help in time of need.
4 He lives, my kind, wise, heavenly friend;
he lives and loves me to the end;
he lives, and while he lives, I’ll sing;
he lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King!
5 He lives, all glory to his name!
He lives, my Saviour, still the same;
what joy this blest assurance gives:
I know that my Redeemer lives! Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

Once in Royal David's City
Author: Cecil F. Alexander Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 410 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 4:15 Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city
stood a lowly cattle shed,
where a mother laid her baby
in a manger for his bed:
Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ her little child.
2 He came down to earth from heaven
who is God and Lord of all,
and his shelter was a stable,
and his cradle was a stall:
with the poor and meek and lowly
lived on earth our Savior holy.
3 For he is our childhood's pattern,
day by day like us he grew,
he was little, weak, and helpless,
tears and smiles like us he knew:
and he feels for all our sadness,
and he shares in all our gladness.
4 And our eyes at last shall see him,
through his own redeeming love;
for that child, so dear and gentle,
is our Lord in heaven above,
and he leads his children on
to the place where he has gone.

God of our fathers, be the God
of their succeeding race.

our souls arrive in peace. Topics: Proper 11 Year A; Proper 15 Year C Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM

Tell Me the Story of Jesus
Author: Fanny J. Crosby Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Appears in 227 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 4:15 Lyrics: 1 Tell me the story of Jesus,
write on my heart every word;
tell me the story most precious,
sweetest that ever was heard.
Tell how the angels in chorus
sang as they welcomed his birth,
“Glory to God in the highest!
Peace and good tidings to earth.”
[Refrain:]
Tell me the story of Jesus,
write on my heart every word;
tell me the story most precious,
sweetest that ever was heard.
2 Fasting alone in the desert,
tell of the days that are past;
how for our sins He was tempted,
yet was triumphant at last.
Tell of the years of his labor,
tell of the sorrow he bore,
he was despised and afflicted,
homeless, rejected and poor. (Refrain)
3 Tell of the cross where they nailed him,
writhing in anguish and pain;
tell of the grave where they laid him,
tell how He liveth again.
Love in that story so tender
clearer than ever I see;
stay, let me weep while you whisper,
"Love paid the ransom for me." (Refrain)

By you are given the gifts of heaven;
you the true Redeemer are.

who trusts you surely has built securely
and stands forever: Alleluia!
Our hearts are pleading, your presence needing,
living or dying, on Christ relying
now and forever: Alleluia!

not of sin or death or night.
He knows our troubles, our pain and struggles;
he upholds us by his might.
Wherefore the story tell of his glory
with heart and voices; all heaven rejoices
in him forever: Alleluia!
We shout for gladness away, all sadness!
love him and praise him, and still shall raise him
glad hymns forever: Alleluia!
