Blest are the pure in heart

Author: John Keble Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #459a (1899) Topics: Blessedness of the Righteous Lyrics: 1 Blest are the pure in heart, For they shall see their God; The secret of the Lord is theirs; Their soul is Christ's abode. 2 The Lord, who left the heavens Our life and peace to bring, To dwell in lowliness with men, Their Pattern and their King:-- 3 He to the lowly soul Doth still Himself impart, And for His dwelling and His throne Chooseth the pure in heart. 4 Lord, we Thy presence seek: May ours this blessing be; Oh, give the pure and lowly heart,-- A temple meet for Thee.

How blest is he whose trespass

Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #462 (1961) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Christians Blessedness of Lyrics: 1 How blest is he whose trespass Has freely been forgiv'n, Whose sin is wholly covered Before the sight of heav'n. Blest he to whom Jehovah Will not impute his sin, Who has a guileless spirit, Whose heart is true within. 2 While I kept guilty silence My strength was spent with grief, Thy hand was heavy on me, My soul found no relief; But when I owned my trespass, My sin hid not from thee, When I confessed transgression, Then thou forgavest me. 3 So let the godly seek thee In times when thou art near; No whelming floods shall reach them, Nor cause their hearts to fear. In thee, O Lord, I hide me, Thou savest me from ill, And songs of thy salvation My heart with rapture thrill. 4 I graciously will teach thee The way that thou shalt go, And with Mine eye upon thee My counsel make thee know. But be ye not unruly, Or slow to understand, Be not perverse, but willing To heed My wise command. 5 The sorrows of the wicked In number shall abound, But those that trust Jehovah, His mercy shall surround. Then in the Lord be joyful, In song lift up your voice; Be glad in God, ye righteous, Rejoice, ye saints, rejoice. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 32 Languages: English Tune Title: PRYSGOL

One sweetly solemn thought

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #468 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Blessedness future, anticipated Lyrics: 1 One sweetly solemn thought Comes to me o'er and o'er; I am nearer my home to-day Than e'er I've been before; 2 Nearer my Father's house, Where many mansions be, Nearer the throne where Jesus reigns, Nearer the crystal sea. 3 Nearer the bound of life, Where burdens are laid down, Nearer leaving the cross of grief, Nearer gaining the crown. 4 But lying darkly between, And winding down through the night, Flows on the deep and unknown stream, That leads me to the light. 5 Jesus, perfect my trust, Strengthen my hand of my faith, And be Thou near me when I stand Upon the shore of death.

And all my rising bones shall say, Lord, who is like to Thee! 6 If such the views which grace unfolds, Weak as it is below, What raptures must the Church above, In Jesus' presence know.

To Jesus, the crown of my hope

And round me Thy brightness be pour'd; I shall meet Him whom absent I loved, I shall see Whom unseen I adored. 6 And then, never more shall the fears, The trials, temptations, and woes, Which darken this valley of tears, Intrude on my blissful repose.

What cheering words are these!

Author: John Kent Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #470 (1899) Topics: Blessedness of the Righteous Lyrics: 1 What cheering words are these! Their sweetness who can tell? In time and to eternity, ’Tis with the righteous well. 2 In every state secure, Kept by Jehovah’s eye, ’Tis well with them while life endures, And well when called to die. 3 ’Tis well when joys arise, ’Tis well when sorrows flow; ’Tis well when darkness veils the skies, And strong temptations blow. 4 ’Tis well when on the mount They feast on dying love; And ’tis as well, in God’s account, When they the furnace prove. 5 'Tis well when Jesus calls: "From earth and sin, arise, Join with the hosts of virgin souls, Made to salvation wise!"

My days are gliding swiftly by

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #474 (1870) Topics: Blessedness future, anticipated Lyrics: 1 My days are gliding swiftly by, And I, a pilgrim stranger, Would not detain them as they fly, Those hours of toil and danger: For now we stand on Jordan’s strand; Our friends are passing over; And, just before, the shining shore We may almost discover. 2 Our absent King the watchword gave, "Let every lamp be burning;" We look afar across the wave, Our distant home discerning. For now we stand on Jordan’s strand; Our friends are passing over; And, just before, the shining shore We may almost discover. 3 Should coming days be dark and cold, We will not yield to sorrow, For hope will sing with courage bold, "There's glory on the morrow." For now we stand on Jordan’s strand; Our friends are passing over; And, just before, the shining shore We may almost discover. 4 Let storms of woe in whirlwinds rise, Each cord on earth to sever: There--bright and joyous in the skies, There--is our home forever: For now we stand on Jordan’s strand; Our friends are passing over; And, just before, the shining shore We may almost discover.

And must these active limbs of mine Lie mould'ring in the clay? 2 God, my Redeemer lives, And often, from the skies, Looks down and watches all my dust, Till He shall bid it rise. 3 Array'd in glorious grace Shall these vile bodies shine, And ev'ry shape, and ev'ry face, Look heavenly and divine. 4 These lively hopes we owe To Jesus' dying love; We would adore His grace below, And sing His power above. 5 Dear Lord, accept the praise Of these our humble songs, Till tunes of nobler sound we raise With our immortal tongues.
