O happy band of pilgrims

Author: St. Joseph the Hymnographer; John Mason Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal #536 (1916) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Topics: Travelers by Sea and Land Lyrics: O happy band of pilgrims, If onward ye will tread With Jesus as your fellow To Jesus as your head! O happy if ye labour As Jesus did for men! O happy if ye hunger As Jesus hungered then! The cross that Jesus carried, He carried as your due: The crown that Jesus weareth, He weareth it for you. The faith by which ye see him, The hope in which ye yearn, The love that through all troubles To him alone will turn; The trials that beset you, The sorrows ye endure, The manifold temptations That death alone can cure; What are they but his jewels, Of right celestial worth? What are they but the ladder Set up to heaven on earth? O happy band of pilgrims, Look upward to the skies, Where such a light affliction Shall win so great a prize! 497 To Father, Son, and Spirit, The God whom we adore, Be loftiest praises given, Now and for evermore. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: KNECHT

Kind is the speech of Christ our Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #565 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Providence in air, earth, and sea Lyrics: Kind is the speech of Christ our Lord, Affection sounds in every word: Lo! thou art fair, my love," he cries, "Not the young doves have sweeter eyes." ["Sweet are thy lips, thy pleasing voice Salutes mine ear with secret joys; No spice so much delights the smell, Nor milk nor honey tastes so well.] "Thou art all fair, my bride, to me, I will behold no spot in thee." What mighty wonders love performs, And puts a comeliness on worms! Defiled and loathsome as we are, He makes us white, and calls us fair; Adorns us with that heav'nly dress, His graces and his righteousness. "My sister and my spouse," he cries, "Bound to my heart by various ties, Thy powerful love my heart detains In strong delight and pleasing chains." He calls me from the leopard's den, From this wild world of beasts and men, To Zion, where his glories are; Not Lebanon is half so fair. Nor dens of prey, nor flowery plains, Nor earthly joys, nor earthly pains, Shall hold my feet or force my stay, When Christ invites my soul away. Scripture: Song of Solomon 4:1-11 Languages: English

We are a garden wall'd around

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #566 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Providence in air, earth, and sea Lyrics: We are a garden walled around, Chosen and made peculiar ground; A little spot enclosed by grace Out of the world's wide wilderness. Like trees of myrrh and spice we stand, Planted by God the Father's hand; And all his springs in Zion flow, To make the young plantation grow. Awake, O, heav'nly wind! and come, Blow on this garden of perfume; Spirit divine! descend and breathe A gracious gale on plants beneath. Make our best spices flow abroad, To entertain our Savior God And faith, and love, and joy appear, And every grace be active here. [Let my Beloved come and taste His pleasant fruits at his own feast: "I come, my spouse, I come!" he cries, With love and pleasure in his eyes. Our Lord into his garden comes, Well pleased to smell our poor perfumes, And calls us to a feast divine, Sweeter than honey, milk, or wine. "Eat of the tree of life, my friends, The blessings that my Father sends; Your taste shall all my dainties prove, And drink abundance of my love:" Jesus, we will frequent thy board, And sing the bounties of our Lord; But the rich food on which we live Demands more praise than tongues can give.] Scripture: Song of Solomon 4:12-15 Languages: English

The wondering world enquires to know

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #567 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Providence in air, earth, and sea Lyrics: The wond'ring world inquires to know Why I should love my Jesus so: What are his charms," say they, "above The objects of a mortal love?" Yes! my Beloved, to my sight Shows a sweet mixture, red and white: All human beauties, all divine, In my Beloved meet and shine. White is his soul, from blemish free; Red with the blood he shed for me; The fairest of ten thousand fairs; A sun amongst ten thousand stars. [His head the finest gold excels; There wisdom in perfection dwells, And glory like a crown adorns Those temples once beset with thorns. Compassions in his heart are found, Hard by the signals of his wound: His sacred side no more shall bear The cruel scourge, the piercing spear.] [His hands are fairer to behold Than diamonds set in rings of gold; Those heav'nly hands, that on the tree Were nailed, and torn, and bled for me! Though once he bowed his feeble knees, Loaded with sins and agonies, Now on the throne of his command His legs like marble pillars stand.] [His eyes are majesty and love, The eagle tempered with the dove; No more shall trickling sorrows roll Through those dear windows of his soul. His mouth, that poured out long complaints, Now smiles and cheers his fainting saints His countenance more graceful is Than Lebanon with all its trees.] All over glorious is my Lord Must be beloved, and yet adored; His worth if all the nations knew, Sure the whole earth would love him too. Scripture: Song of Solomon 5:9-16 Languages: English

When strangers stand and hear me tell

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #568 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Providence in air, earth, and sea Lyrics: When strangers stand and hear me tell What beauties in my Savior dwell, Where he is gone they fain would know, That they may seek and love him too. My best Beloved keeps his throne On hills of light, in worlds unknown; But he descends and shows his face In the young gardens of his grace. [In vineyards planted by his hand, Where fruitful trees in order stand; He feeds among the spicy beds, Where lilies show their spotless heads. He has engrossed my warmest love, No earthly charms my soul can move: I have a mansion in his heart, Nor death nor hell shall make us part.] [He takes my soul ere I'm aware, And shows me where his glories are; No chariot of Amminadib The heav'nly rapture can describe. O may my spirit daily rise On wings of faith above the skies, Till death shall make my last remove, To dwell for ever with my Love.] Scripture: Song of Solomon 6:1-3 Languages: English
