Jesus, the very thought of Thee
Author: Edward Caswall; Bernard of Clairvaux, 1901-1153 Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #113 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the very thought of Thee
With gladness fills my breast;
But dearer far Thy face to see,
And in Thy presence rest,
And in Thy presence rest.
2 Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame,
Nor can the memory find
A sweeter sound than Thy blest name,
O Saviour of mankind!
O Saviour of mankind!
3 O Hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek!
To those who fall, how kind Thou art,
How good to those who seek!
How good to those who seek!
4 And those who find Thee, find a bliss
Nor tongue nor pen can show:
The love of Jesus--what it is,
None but His loved ones know,
None but His loved ones know.
5 Jesus, our only joy be Thou!
As Thou our prize wilt be;
Jesus, be Thou our glory now,
And through eternity!
And through eternity!
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MORAVIAN

With healing in His wings.

Author: Arthur C. Coxe Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #136 (1899) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 How beauteous were the marks divine
That in Thy meekness used to shine,
That lit Thy lonely pathway, trod
In wondrous love, O Son of God!
2 Oh! who like Thee, so calm, so bright,
So pure, so made to live in light?
Oh! who like Thee did ever go
So patient through a world of woe?
3 E'en death, which sets the prisoner free,
Was pang, and scoff, and scorn to Thee;
Yet love through all Thy torture glowed,
And mercy with Thy life-blood flowed.
4 Oh, in Thy light be mine to go,
Illuming all this way of woe!
And give me ever on the road
To trace Thy footsteps, Son of God!

Where Jesus sheds the brightest beams
Of His o'erflowing grace!

Bend their bright sceptres down;
Dominions, thrones, and powers rejoice
To see Him wear the crown.
3 Archangels sound His lofty praise
Through every heavenly street;
And lay their highest honors down,
Submissive at His feet.
4 Now to the Lamb, that once was slain,
Be endless blessings paid;
Salvation, glory, joy, remain
forever on Thy head!
5 Thou hast redeemed our souls with blood,
Hast set the prisoners free,
Hast made us kings and priests to God,
And we shall reign with Thee.

Yet loved me, notwithstanding all;
He saved me from my lost estate;
His loving-kindness, oh, how great! [Refrain]
3 When trouble, like a gloomy cloud,
Has gathered thick and thundered loud,
He near my soul has always stood,
His loving-kindness, oh, how good! [Refrain]
4 Often I feel my sinful heart
Prone from my Jesus to depart;
But though I have Him oft forgot,
His loving-kindness changes not. [Refrain]
5 When I shall pass death's gloomy vale,
And life and mortal powers must fail,
Oh, may my last expiring breath
His loving-kindness sing in death! [Refrain]
6 Then shall I mount and soar away
To the bright worlds of endless day;
And sing, with rapture and surprise,
His loving-kindness in the skies. [Refrain]

All music but its own:

Of Him who died for thee,
And hail Him as thy matchless King
Through all eternity.

Behold His hands and side,
Rich wounds, yet visible above,
In beauty glorified:
No angel in the sky
Can fully bear that sight,
But downward bends his burning eye
At mysteries so bright.

Whose power a scepter sways
From pole to pole, that wars may cease,
Absorbed in prayer and praise:
His reign shall know no end;
And round His pierced feet
Fair flowers of Paradise extend
Their fragrance ever sweet.
4 Crown Him the Lord of years,
The Potentate of time;
Creator of the rolling spheres,
Ineffably sublime:
All hail, Redeemer, hail!
For Thou hast died for me:
Thy praise shall never, never fail
Throughout eternity.

Hush the lone harps of sadness;

Tell the wonderful story,
From the manger to glory;
All hail to King Jesus who burst the tomb!

In his praises delighting,
Both here and in heav'n shall our joy anthem ring.
For his love ever vernal,
For his mercy eternal,
Let glory supernal crown Jesus Christ. Languages: English Tune Title: [Hallelujahs to Jesus!]
