Jesus, Thou Joy of Loving Hearts
Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 564 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:1-7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thou joy of loving hearts,
thou fount of life, thou light of all,
from the best bliss that earth imparts
we turn, unfilled, to heed thy call.
2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood;
thou savest those that on thee call;
to them that seek thee thou art good,
to them that find thee, all in all.
3 We taste thee, O thou living bread,
and long to feast upon thee still;
we drink of thee, the fountainhead,
and thirst our souls from thee to fill.
4 Our restless spirits yearn for thee,
where'er our changeful lot is cast,
glad when thy gracious smile we see,
blest when our faith can hold thee fast.
5 O Jesus, ever with us stay;
make all our moments calm and bright.
O chase the night of sin away;
shed o'er the world thy holy light.

Songs of praise the angels sang
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 546 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:1 Lyrics: 1 Songs of praise the angels sang,

when creation was begun,
when God spake and it was done.

when the Prince of peace was born;
songs of praise arose when he
captive led captivity.

songs of praise shall crown that day:
God will make new heav'ns and earth;
songs of praise shall hail their birth.

till that glorious kingdom come?

songs of praise to sing above.

Ye wretched, starving poor!

That trembles at his feet.

And find in Christ a home. Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises; The Bountiful Feast
