What works of wisdom, pow'r and love

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 What works of wisdom, pow'r and love, Do Jesus' high commission prove! Attest his heav'n-derived claim, And glorify his Father's name! 2 On eyes that never saw the day, He pours the bright celestial ray; And deafen'd ears, by him unbound, Catch all the harmony of sound. 3 Lameness takes up it's bed, and goes Rejoicing in the strength that flows Through ev'ry nerve; and, free from pain, Pours forth to God the grateful strain. 4 The shatter'd mind his word restores, And tunes afresh the mental pow'rs; The dead revive, to life return, And bid affection cease to mourn. 5 Canst thou, my soul, these wonders trace, And not admire Jehovah's grace? Canst thou behold thy Saviour's Pow'r, And not believe, obey, adore?

With ecstasy of joy

Meter: Irregular Appears in 27 hymnals Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 With ecstasy of joy Extol his glorious name, Who rear'd the spacious earth, And rais'd our mortal frame. He built the church, Who spread the sky: Shout and exalt His honours high. 2 See the foundation laid By pow'r and love divine; Jesus, his first-born Son, How bright his glories shine! Low he descends, In dust he lies, That from his tomb A church might rise. 3 But he for ever lives, Nor for himself alone; Each saint new life derives From him, the living stone. His influence spreads Through ev'ry soul, And in one house Unites the whole. 4 To him with joy we move; In him cemented stand; The living temple grows, And owns the founder's hand. That structure, Lord, Still higher raise, Louder to sound Its builder's praise

'Tis music to our ears; A sov'reign balm for ev'ry wound, A cordial for our fears. 2 Buried in sorrow and in sin, And at hell’s dark door we lay: But we arise by grace divine To see a heav'nly day. 3 Salvation! let the echo fly The spacious earth around; While all the armies of the sky Conspire to raise the sound! CHORUS: Glory, honour, praise, and power, Be unto the Lamb forever! Jesus Christ is our Redeemer! Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!

Meter: Irregular Appears in 388 hymnals Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 Now begin the heav'nly theme, Sing aloud in Jesus' name! Ye who his salvation prove, Triumph in redeeming love. 2 Ye, who see the Father's grace Beaming in the Saviour's face As to heav'n ye onward move, Triumph in redeeming love. 3 Mourning souls! dry up your tears; Banish all your guilty fears. See your guilt and care remove, Cancell'd by redeeming love. 4 Ye, alas! who long have been Willing slaves of death and sin! Now from bliss no longer rove; Stop, and taste redeeming love. 5 Christ subdued th' infernal pow'rs; His tremendous foes, and our's, From their cursed empire drove, Mighty in redeeming love. 6 Hither, then, your music bring; Strike aloud each joyful string. Mortals! join the hosts above, Join to praise redeeming love.
