Osler Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 134 hymnals First Line: O God, unseen, yet ever near Lyrics: 1 O God, unseen yet ever near, Thy presence may we feel; And thus inspired with holy fear, Before Thine altar kneel. 2 Here may Thy faithful people know The blessings of Thy love, The streams that through the desert flow, The manna from above. 3 We come, obedient to Thy word, To feast on heavenly food; Our meat the Body of the Lord, Our drink his precious Blood. 4 Thus may we all Thy word obey, For we, O God, are Thine; And go rejoicing on our way, Renewed with strength divine.

Author: Anonymous; Geoffrey Preston, 1936-1977 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Where love and loving-kindness dwell, there God will ever be: One Father, Son, and Holy Ghost in perfect charity. 2 Brought here together into one by Christ our shepherd-king, now let us in his love rejoice, and of his goodness sing. 3 Here too let God, the living God, both loved and honoured be; and let us each the other love with true sincerity. 4 Brought here together by Christ's love, let no ill-will divide, nor quarrels break the unity of those for whom he died. 5 Let envy, jealousy and strife and all contention cease, for in our midst serves Christ the Lord, our sacrament of peace. 6 Together may we with the saints thy face in glory see, and ever in thy kingdom feast, O Christ our God, with thee.

Let All Adore The Immortal King

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Let all adore the immortal King, Maker of Heaven and earth; Angels and men, rejoice and sing, At our Immanuel’s birth. 2 A son is born, a child is given, That mortals, born again, May in the new-made earth and Heaven, With God for ever reign. 3 Father, Thy heavenly voice I own, Thy gracious majesty: Thro’ Jesus Thy belovèd Son, Thou art well pleased with me! 4 But our whole race to Christ unite And by Thy Spirit joined, Thou wilt eternally delight In all Thy ransomed kind. 5 Salvation from our sins we found, Thro’ Jesu’s grace forgiven; And Jesu’s grace doth more abound, And makes us meet for Heaven. 6 The hallowing virtue of Thy name, Our spotless souls shall prove; And to the utmost saved, proclaim Our Lord’s almighty love.
