I Am Jesus' Little Lamb

Author: Henrietta L. von Hayn, 1724-82 Meter: 7.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 13 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 49:10 Lyrics: 1 I am Jesus' little lamb, Ever glad at heart I am; For my Shepherd gently guides me, Knows my need and well provides me, Loves me ev'ry day the same, Even calls me by my name. 2 Day by day, at home, away, Jesus is my staff and stay. When I hunger, Jesus feeds me, Into pleasant pastures leads me; When I thirst, He bids me go Where the quiet waters flow. 3 Who so happy as I am, Even now the Shepherd's lamb? And when my short life is ended, By His angel host attended, He shall fold me to His breast, There within His arms to rest.

Zion Mourns in Fear and Anguish

Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Heermann Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 49:14-17 Lyrics: 1 Zion mourns in fear and anguish, Zion, city of our God. "Ah," she says, "how sore I languish, Bowed beneath the chast'ning rod! For my God forsook me quite And forgot my sorry plight Mid these troubles now distressing, Countless woes my soul oppressing. 2 "Once," she mourns, "He promised plainly That His help should e'er be near; Yet I now must seek Him vainly In my days of woe and fear. Will His anger never cease? Will He not renew His peace? Will He not show forth compassion And again forgive transgression?" 3 "Zion, surely I do love thee," Thus to her the Savior saith, "Tho' with many woes I prove thee And thy soul is sad to death. For My troth is pledged to thee; Zion, thou art dear to Me. Deep within My heart I've set thee, That I never can forget thee. 4 "Let not Satan make thee craven; He can threaten, but not harm. On My hands thy name is graven, And thy shield is My strong arm. How, then, could it ever be I should not remember thee, Fail to build thy wall, My city, "And look down on thee with pity? 5 "Ever shall Mine eyes behold thee; On My bosom thou art laid. Ever shall My love enfold thee; Never shalt thou lack Mine aid. Neither Satan, war, nor stress Then shall mar thy happiness: With this blessèd consolation Be thou firm in tribulation." Amen.

The Counsels of Redeeming Love

Meter: Irregular Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 49:8 First Line: The Eternal speaks, all heaven attends Lyrics: 1 Th' Eternal speaks: All heav'n attends: Who that unhappy race defends, While justice aims the blow? See nature tremble at their fates: Death with his iron sceptre waits: Hell opes her adamantine gates, And triumphs at their woe. 2 Which of the bright celestial throng, With Love so warm, and heart so strong, Dares languish on a cross? Who can leave liberty for chains? Abandon ecstacy, for pains? What angel fortitude sustains Th' inestimable Loss. 3 He said: And death like silence reign'd: Deep was their awe: The radiant band, The mighty task declin'd, At once, heav'n's Prince the silence broke, And ardent thus, the Sire bespoke, "None, but thy Son can ward the stroke;, Ten let the task be mine. 4 Mine, be the feeble infant state; Mine, in return for love be hate; A manger be my throne. Pain, when thy glory calls, is bliss; When man's in danger, torture's peace; Shame praise; a paradise th' abyss: Then yield thy darling Son." 5 Th' Almignty radiance smil'd assent, Loud was the shout that ether rent, All heav'n was in amaze. Be born, in anguish to expire;" Earth triumph: Angels strike the lyre, To everlasting praise. Topics: The Wonders of Redemption, celebrated in Songs of Praise Text Sources: Knapp's Psalmody
