The World Is Grown Old

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: The world is grown old, and her pleasures are past Lyrics: 1 The world is grown old, and her pleasures are past; The world is grown old, and her form may not last; The world is grown old, and trembles for fear; For sorrows abound, and judgment is near! 2 The sun in the heaven is languid and pale, And feeble and few are the fruits of the vale; The hearts of the nations all fail them for fear, The world is grown old, and judgment is near! 3 The king on his throne, the bride in her bower, The children of pleasure all feel the sad hour; The roses are faded, and tasteless the cheer, The world is grown old, and judgment is near! 4 The world is grown old, but should we complain? We tried her and know that her promises are vain. Our heart is in Heaven, our home is not here: We look for our crown when judgment is near!

Ye Thirsty for God

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 24 hymnals First Line: Ye thirsty for God, to Jesus give ear Lyrics: 1. Ye thirsty for God, to Jesus give ear, And take, through His blood, a power to draw near; His kind invitation ye sinners embrace, Accepting salvation, salvation by grace. 2. Sent down from above, who governs the skies, In vehement love to sinners He cries, Drink into My Spirit, who happy would be, And all things inherit by coming to Me. 3. O Savior of all, Thy Word we believe! And come at Thy call, Thy grace to receive; The blessing is given wherever Thou art. The earnest of Heaven is love in the heart. 4. To us at Thy feet the Comforter give, Who gasp to admit Thy Spirit, and live; The weakest believers acknowledge for Thine, And fill us with rivers of water divine.

Why Sleep We, My Brethren?

Author: Josiah Hopkins Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 66 hymnals First Line: Why sleep we, my brethren? Come, let us arise Lyrics: 1 Why sleep we, my brethren? Come, let us arise, O, why should we slumber in sight of the prize? Salvation is nearer, our days are far spent, O, let us be active; awake! and repent. 2 O, how can we slumber! The Master is come, And calling on sinners to seek them a home; The Spirit and Bride now in concert unite, The weary they welcome, the careless invite. 3 O, how can we slumber! Our foes are awake; To ruin poor souls every effort they make; T’accomplish their object no means are untried, The careless they comfort, the wakeful misguide. 4 O, how can we slumber! When so much was done, To purchase salvation by Jesus the Son! Now mercy is proffered, and justice displayed, Now God can be honored, and sinners be saved. 5 O, how can we slumber! when death is so near, And sinners are sinking to endless despair; Now prayers may avail, and they gain the high prize, Before they in torment shall lift up their eyes. 6 O, how can ye slumber! Ye sinners, look round, Before the last trumpet your hearts shall confound; O, fly to the Savior, He calls you today; Where mercy is waiting, O make no delay.
