A charge to keep I have

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #428 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 A charge to keep I have, A God to glorify; A never-dying soul to save, And fit it for the sky; 2 To serve the present age, My calling to fulfil; Oh, may it all my powers engage To do my Master's will. 3 Arm me with jealous care, As in Thy sight to live; And oh! Thy servant, Lord, prepare, A strict account to give. 4 Help me to watch and pray, And on Thyself rely, Assured, if I my trust betray, I shall forever die. Languages: English

My drowsy powers, why sleep ye so?

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #429 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 My drowsy powers, why sleep ye so? Awake my sluggish soul! Nothing has half thy work to do, Yet nothing's half so dull. 2 We, for whose sake all nature stands, And stars their courses move; We, for whose guard the angel bands Come flying from above; 3 We, for whom God the Son came down, And labor'd for our good, How careless to secure that crown He purchased with His blood. 4 Lord, shall we lie so sluggish still, And never act our parts? Come, holy Dove, from th'heavenly hill, Renew and warm our hearts. Languages: English

O Sacred Head, now wounded

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #130 (1870) Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 O Sacred Head, now wounded, With grief and shame weigh'd down! Now scornfully surrounded With thorns, Thine only crown. O sacred Head, what glory, What bliss, till now, was Thine! Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine. 2 How art Thou pale with anguish, With sore abuse and scorn! How does that visage languish Which once was bright as morn! Thy grief and Thy compassion Were all for sinners' gain; Mine, mine was the transgression, But Thine the deadly pain. 3 What language shall I borrow To thank Thee, dearest Friend, For this Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end! Lord, make me Thine for ever, Nor let me faithless prove; Oh, let me never, never Abuse such dying love! 4 Forbid that I should leave Thee; O Jesus, leave not me; By faith I would receive Thee; Thy blood can make me free; When strength and comfort languish, And I must hence depart, Release me then from anguish, By Thine own wounded heart.

Behold th' amazing sight

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #131 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 Behold th'amazing sight, The Saviour lifted high! Behold the Son of God's delight Expire in agony? 2 For whom, for whom, my heart, Were all these sorrows borne! Why did He feel that piercing smart, And meet that various scorn? 3 For love of us He bled, And all in torture died; 'Twas love that bow'd His fainting head, And oped His gushing side. 4 In sympathy of love Let all the earth combine; And, drawn by cords so gentle, prove The energy divine. 5 In Him our hearts unite, Nor share His griefs alone, But from His cross pursue their flight To His triumphant throne.

"Stricken, smitten, and afflicted"

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #132 (1870) Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 "Stricken, smitten, and afflicted," See Him dying on the tree! 'Tis the Christ by man rejected; Yes, my soul, 'tis He, 'tis He! 'Tis the long-expected Prophet, David's Son, yet David's Lord; Proofs I see sufficient of it: 'Tis the true and faithful word. 2 Tell me, ye who hear Him groaning, Was there ever grief like His? Friends through fear His cause disowning, Foes insulting His distress: Many hands were raised to wound Him, None would interpose to save; But the deepest stroke that pierced Him Was the stroke that Justice gave. 3 Ye who think of sin but lightly, Nor suppose the evil great; Here may view its nature rightly, Here its guilt may estimate. Mark the sacrifice appointed! See Who bears the awful load; 'Tis the Word, the Lord's Anointed, Son of Man, and Son of God. 4 Here we have a firm foundation; Here's the refuge of the lost; Christ's the Rock of our salvation: His the name of which we boast: Lamb of God for sinners wounded! Sacrifice to cancel guilt! None shall ever be confounded Who on Him their hope have built. Languages: English

In the cross of Christ I glory

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #133 (1870) Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory, Tow'ring o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. 2 When the woes of life o'ertake me, Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, Never shall the cross forsake me: Lo! it glows with peace and joy. 3 When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the cross the radiance streaming, Adds new luster to the day. 4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the cross are sanctified; Peace is there that knows no measure, Joys that through all time abide. 5 In the cross of Christ I glory, Tow'ring o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime.

Hail! Thou once despiséd Jesus!

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #150 (1870) Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 Hail! Thou once despiséd Jesus! Hail! Thou Galilean King! Thou didst suffer to release us; Thou didst free salvation bring: Hail! Thou agonizing Saviour, Bearer of our sin and shame! By Thy merits we find favor; Life is given through Thy name. 2 Paschal Lamb, by God appointed, All our sins on Thee were laid; By almighty love anointed, Thou hast full atonement made. All Thy people are forgiven Through the virtue of Thy blood; Open'd is the gate of heaven; Peace us made 'twixt man and God. 3 Jesus, hail! Enthroned in glory, There forever to abide! All the heavenly host adore Thee, Seated at Thy Father's side; There for sinners Thou art pleading; There Thou dost our place prepare; Ever for us interceding, Till in glory we appear. 4 Worship, honor, power, and blessing, Thou art worthy to receive; Loudest praises, without ceasing, Meet it is for us to give: Help, ye bright angelic spirits! Bring your sweetest, noblest lays! Help to sing our Saviour's merits; Help to chant Immanuel's praise! Languages: English
