Sweet the moments, rich in blessing

Author: Robinson Meter: 8.7 Appears in 824 hymnals Scripture: Song of Solomon 2:3 Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing, Which before the cross I spend, Life, and health, and peace possessing From the sinner’s dying Friend; May I sit for ever viewing Mercy’s streams in streams of blood; Precious drops my soul bedewing, Plead and claim my peace with God! 2 Truly blessèd is this station, Low before his cross to lie, While I see divine compassion Floating in his languid eye. Here it is I find my heaven, While upon the Lamb I gaze; Love I much? I’ve much forgiven; I’m a miracle of grace. 3 Love and grief my heart dividing, With my tears his feet I’ll bathe; Constant still in faith abiding, Life deriving from his death. May I still enjoy this feeling, In all need to Jesus go; Prove his wounds each day more healing, And himself more deeply know! Topics: Sufferings, Death, and Cross of Christ

And, oh, what transport of delight From thy pure chalice floweth. 6 And so through all the length of days Thy goodness faileth never, Good Shepherd! may I sing thy praise Within thy house for ever.

God hath brought his Israel into joy from sadness; loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke Jacob's sons and daughters; led them with unmoistened foot through the Red Sea waters. 2 'Tis the spring of souls today; Christ hath burst his prison, and from three days' sleep in death as a sun hath risen: all the winter of our sins, long and dark, is flying from his light, to whom we give laud and praise undying. 3 Now the queen of seasons, bright with the day of splendour, with the royal feast of feasts, comes its joy to render; comes to glad Jerusalem, who with true affection welcomes in unwearied strains Jesu's resurrection. 4 Alleluia now we cry to our King immortal, who triumphant burst the bars of the tomb's dark portal; Alleluia, with the Son God the Father praising; alleluia yet again to the Spirit raising.
