Go, Ye Messengers of God

Author: Joshua Marsden Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1945 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1. Go, ye messengers of God! Like the beams of morning fly, Take the wonder working rod, Wave the banner cross on high; Where the lofty minaret Gleams along the morning skies, Wave it till the crescent set, And the Star of Jacob rise! 2. Go to many a tropic isle In the bosom of the deep, Where the skies forever smile And the oppressed forever weep: O’er their gloomy night of care Pour the living light of Heaven; Chase away their dark despair, Bid them hope to be forgiven! 3. Where the golden gates of day Open on the palmy East, Wide the bleeding cross display, Spread the Gospel’s richest feast: Bear the tidings round the ball, Visit every soil and sea: Preach the cross of Christ to all, Jesus’ love is full and free!

Jesu, for the Beacon-Light

Author: Henry W. Baker Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3214 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1. Jesu, for the beacon-light By Thy holy Doctors given, When the mists of error’s night, Gathered o’er the path to Heav’n; For the witness that they bare To the truth they learned of Thee, For the glory that they share, Let our praise accepted be. 2. In Jerusalem below They were workmen at Thy call, Each with one hand met the foe, With the other built the wall; Watchmen on the mountain set, Scribes instructed in Thy Word, Fishers with the Gospel net, Drawing souls to Thee their Lord. 3. Like Thy learnèd sons of yore, Jesu, may Thy Pastors still Know and teach Thy sacred lore With brave heart and patient skill; In these latter days of strife Keep, O keep them true to Thee, Till beside the well of life Light in Thine own light they see.

See How Great a Flame Aspires

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5983 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1. See how great a flame aspires, Kindled by a spark of grace! Jesus’ love the nations fires, Sets the kingdoms on a blaze: To bring fire on earth He came; Kindled in some hearts it is: O that all might catch the flame, All partake the glorious bliss! 2. When He first the work begun, Small and feeble was His day: Now the word doth swiftly run; Now it wins its widening way: More and more it spread and grows, Ever mighty to prevail; Sin’s strongholds it now o’erthrows, Shakes the trembling gates of hell. 3. Sons of God, your Savior praise! He the door hath opened wide! He hath given the word of grace, Jesus’ word is glorified; Jesus, mighty to redeem, He alone the work hath wrought; Worthy is the work of Him, Him who spake a world from naught. 4. Saw ye not the cloud arise, Little as a human hand? Now it spreads along the skies, Hangs o’er all the thirsty land: Lo! the promise of a shower Drops already from above; But the Lord will shortly pour All the spirit of His love.

Thou, the Christ Forever One

Author: William Bright Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6948 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1. Thou, the Christ forever one, Mary’s child and Israel’s God, Daniel’s prince and David’s son, Jacob’s star and Jesse’s rod, Thou of whom of the prophets spake, Thou in whom their words came true, Hear the pleading prayer we make, Hear the Gentile for the Jew! 2. Knowing what the Spirit saith, Sure of Thee, our Christ divine, Lo, we stand, by right of faith, Heirs of Abraham’s chartered line; Can we then his sons forget, Branches severed from their tree, Exiles from their homes, and yet Kinsmen, Lord, in flesh to Thee? 3. Though the blood betrayed and spilt, On the race entailed a doom, Let its virtue cleanse the guilt, Melt the hardness, chase the gloom; Lift the veil from off their heart, Make them Israelites indeed, Meet once more for lot and part With Thy household’s genuine seed. 4. Thou that didst Thy dews outpour, Crowning alien grafts with fruit, Soon the native growths restore, Making glad the parent root: Ah! but let not pride ensnare Souls that need to mourn their sin; Still the boughs adopted spare, And the outcasts—graft them in! 5. Speed the day of union sweet When with us in faith allied, Israel’s heart shall turn to greet Thee, whom Israel crucified; Thee, in all Thy truth and grace, Owned at last as Salem’s king, While her children find their place, Gathered safe beneath Thy wing.

What Are These in Bright Array?

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7118 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D First Line: What are these in bright array Lyrics: 1. What are these in bright array, This innumerable throng Round the altar night and day, Hymning one triumphant song? Worthy is the Lamb, once slain, Blessing honor, glory, power, Wisdom, riches, to obtain, New dominion every hour. 2. These through fiery trials trod; These from great affliction came; Now before the throne of God Sealed with His almighty name, Clad in raiment pure and white, Victor-palms in every hand, Through their dear Redeemer’s might, More than conquerors they stand. 3. Hunger, thirst, disease, unknown, On immortal fruits they feed; Them the Lamb amidst the throne Shall to living fountains lead: Joy and gladness banish sighs; Perfect love dispel all fear; And for ever from their eyes God shall wipe away the tear.

Virgin Mother, Oh, Rejoice!

Author: John W. Hewett Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10679 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Virgin mother, oh, rejoice! Glad and honored is thy womb, Where the Son of God Himself Deigns our nature to assume: Joy be to thy fruitful breast, For the Son of God lies there; Very God, a human child, Is thy high and holy care. 2 He, the Father’s only Son, And by whom all things were made, Helpless, clothed in mortal flesh, In thy tender arms is laid: He in Heaven is the source Whence the joy of angels flows, Here on earth, an infant weak, Thirst and hunger both He knows. 3 There He rules o’er all that are, Here He doth His mother’s will; There He gives His high commands, Here commands He doth fulfill; There on highest throne He sits Far above the vaulted skies, Here enwrapped in swaddling clothes In a manger low He lies. 4 Mortal, think upon these things, Study well the depth to know Of the all embracing love Which these wondrous lessons show: Of forgiveness lose not hope, Though thou mayst have sinnèd much, When the proofs of love abound, When the proofs of love are such. 5 Seek the blessèd fount and source Whence indulgence flows to all, And before the Savior’s feet In confiding meekness fall— Jesu, on the erring look, All the wanderers restore, And amid Thy hosts redeemed Set them safe forevermore.
