Come, let us to the Lord our God
Author: Dr. J. Morison, 1749-1798 Appears in 109 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, let us to the Lord our God
With contrite hearts return;
Our God is gracious, nor will leave
The desolate to mourn.
2 His voice commands the tempest forth,
And stills the stormy wave;
His arm, though it be strong to smite,
Is also strong to save.
3 Long hath the sight of sorrow reigned;
The dawn shall bring us light;
God shall appear, and we shall rise
With gladness in His sight.
4 Our hearts, if God we seek to know,
Shall know Him and rejoice;
His coming like the morn shall be,
Like morning songs His voice.
5 As dew upon the tender herb,
Diffusing fragrance round;
As showers that usher in the spring,
And cheer the thirsty ground;
6 So shall His presence bless our souls,
And shed a joyful light;
That hallowed morn shall chase away
The sorrows of the night. Topics: Backsliding Return from; Sinners Contrite; Backsliding Return from; Sinners Contrite; Contrition; The Christian Life The Inner Life; Dew, the Holy Spirit as; Presence, of Christ Of God; Heart Contrite; Holy Spirit Dew Used With Tune: ST. PETER

Let plenteous grace descend on those

Let plenteous grace descend on those
Now that the sun is gleaming bright
Author: J. H. Newman Appears in 109 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now that the sun is gleaming bright,
Implore we, bending low,
That He, the uncreated Light,
May guide us as we go.
2 No sinful word, nor deed of wrong,
Nor thoughts that idly rove,
But simple truth be on our tongue,
And in our hearts be love.
3 And while the hours in order flow,
O Christ, securely fence
Our gates, beleaguered by the foe,
The gate of every sense.
4 And grant that to Thine honour, Lord,
Our daily toil may tend;
That we begin it at Thy word,
And in Thy favour end. Topics: General Home and Personal Use; General Home and Personal Use; General Home and Personal Use Used With Tune: ST. PETER

Jerusalem, my happy home
Author: Anon. Appears in 632 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, my happy home,
O, how I long for thee!
When will my sorrows have an end?
Thy joys when shall I see?
2 Thy walls are all of precious stone,
Most glorious to behold;
Thy gates are richly set with pearl,
Thy streets are paved with gold.
3 Thy garden and thy pleasant walks
My study long have been;
Such dazzling views, by human sight
Have never yet been seen.
4 Lord, help us by thy mighty grace
To keep in view the prize
Till thou dost come to take us home
To that blest paradise. Topics: Reward of Saints Used With Tune: ST. PETER
Jerusalem, my happy home
Lo, what a glorious sight appears
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 298 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo, what a glorious sight appears
To our believing eyes!
The earth and seas are passed away,
And the old rolling skies.
2 From the third heaven, where God resides,
That holy, happy place,
The New Jerusalem comes down,
Adorned with shining grace.
3 Attending angels shout for joy,
And the bright armies sing;
Ye saints, behold the sacred seat
Of your descending King!
4 The God of glory down to men
Removes his blest abode;
Men are the objects of his love,
And he their gracious God.
5 His own soft hand shall wipe the tears
From every weeping eye;
And pains, and groans, and griefs, and fears,
And death itself, shall die.
6 How bright the vision! O, how long
Shall this glad hour delay?
Fly swifter round, ye wheels of time,
And bring the welcome day! Topics: Reward of Saints Used With Tune: ST. PETER
Lo, what a glorious sight appears
Zion, the city of our God
Author: Anon. Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Zion, the city of our God,
How glorious is the place!
The Saviour there has his abode,
And saints will see his face.
2 There all the fruits of glory grow,
And joys that never die;
And streams of grace and knowledge flow
The soul to satisfy.
3 Come, set your faces Zionward,
The sacred road inquire,
And let the city of the Lord
Be henceforth your desire.
4 The gospel shines to give you light;
No longer, then, delay;
The Spirit waits to guide you right,
And Jesus is the way.
5 O Lord, regard thy people's prayer,
Thy promise now fulfill,
And young and old by grace prepare
To dwell on Zion's hill. Topics: Reward of Saints Used With Tune: ST. PETER
