The beneficence of Christ for our imitaion

Author: Dr. Gibbons Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CDXXXV (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Example of Christ First Line: When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay, What were His works, from day to day, But miracles of pow'r and grace, That spread salvation thro' our race? 2 Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view Thy pattern, and thy steps pursue; Let alms bestowed, let kindness done, Be witness'd by each rolling sun. 3 That man may last, but never lives, Who much receives but nothing gives, Whom none can love, whom none can thank; Creation's blot, creation's blank. 4 But he, who marks from day to day In generous acts his radiant way, Treads the same path his Savior trod, The path to glory and to God. Scripture: Acts 10:38 Languages: English

How beauteous were the marks divine

Author: Arthur C. Coxe Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #136 (1899) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ Example of Lyrics: 1 How beauteous were the marks divine That in Thy meekness used to shine, That lit Thy lonely pathway, trod In wondrous love, O Son of God! 2 Oh! who like Thee, so calm, so bright, So pure, so made to live in light? Oh! who like Thee did ever go So patient through a world of woe? 3 E'en death, which sets the prisoner free, Was pang, and scoff, and scorn to Thee; Yet love through all Thy torture glowed, And mercy with Thy life-blood flowed. 4 Oh, in Thy light be mine to go, Illuming all this way of woe! And give me ever on the road To trace Thy footsteps, Son of God! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: COMMUNION

God of my mercy and my praise

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.CIX (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Love to Enemies from the Example of Christ Lyrics: 1 God of my mercy and my praise, Thy glory is my song; Tho' sinners speak against thy grace With a blaspheming tongue. 2 When in the form of mortal man Thy Son on earth was found; With cruel slanders, false and vain, They compass'd him around. 3 Their mis'ries his compassion move, Their peace he still pursu'd; They render hatred for his love, And evil for his good. 4 Their malice rag'd without a cause, Yet with his dying breath He pray'd for murd'rers on his cross, And blest his foes in death. 5 Lord, shall thy bright example shine In vain before my eyes; Give me a soul akin to thine, To love my enemies. 6 The Lord shall on my side engage, And in my Saviour's name I shall defeat their pride and rage Who slander and condemn. Scripture: Psalm 109 Languages: English

Give me the Wings of Faith to rise

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.CXL (1766) Topics: Example of Christ Lyrics: 1 Give me the Wings of Faith to rise Within the Veil, and see The Saints above, how great their Joys, How bright their Glories be? 2 Once they were mourning here below, And wet their Couch with Tears; They wrestled hard, as we do now, With Sin, and Doubts and Fears. 3 I ask them whence their Vict'ry came? They with united Breath, Ascribe their Conquest to the Lamb, Their Triumph to his Death. 4 They mark'd the Footsteps that he trod (His Zeal inspir'd their Breast) And, following their incarnate God, Possess'd the promis'd Rest. 5 Our glorious Leader claims our Praise For his own Pattern giv'n, While the long Cloud of Witnesses Show the same Path to Heav'n.

My dear Redeemer, and my Lord!

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #116 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Example of Christ Lyrics: 1 My dear Redeemer, and my Lord! I read my duty in Thy word: But in Thy life the law appears Drawn out in living characters. 2 Such was Thy truth, and such Thy zeal, Such def'rence to Thy Father’s will, Such love and meekness so divine, I would transcribe and make them mine. 3 Cold mountains and the midnight air Witness'd the fervor of Thy prayer; The desert Thy temptations knew, Thy conflict and Thy vict'ry too! 4 Be Thou my pattern; make me bear More of Thy gracious image here; Then God the Judge shall own my name Among the followers of the Lamb.

Behold, where in a mortal form

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #117 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Example of Christ Lyrics: 1 Behold, where in a mortal form Appears each grace divine; The virtues, all in Jesus met, With mildest radiance shine. 2 To spread the rays of heavenly light, To give the mourner joy; To preach glad tidings to the poor, Was His divine employ. 3 'Midst keen reproach and cruel scorn, Patient and meek He stood; His foes, ungrateful, sought His life; He labor'd for their good. 4 To God He left His righteous cause, And still His task pursued; While humble prayer and holy faith His fainting strength renew'd. 5 In the last hours of deep distress, Before His Father's throne, With soul resign'd He bow'd, and said, "Thy will, not mine, be done." 6 Be Christ our pattern and our guide, His image may we bear! Oh, may we tread His holy steps, His joy and glory share! Languages: English
