Jesus! Name of Wondrous Love

Author: William W. How, 1823-97 Hymnal: Lutheran Service Book #900 (2006) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Scripture: Acts 10:43 Lyrics: 1 Jesus! Name of wondrous love, Name all other names above, Unto which must ev'ry knee Bow in deep humility. 2 Jesus! Name decreed of old, To the maiden mother told, Kneeling in her lowly cell, By the angel Gabriel. 3 Jesus! Name of priceless worth To the fallen sons of earth For the promise that it gave, "Jesus shall His people save." 4 Jesus! Name of mercy mild, Given to the holy Child When the cup of human woe First He tasted here below. 5 Jesus! Only name that's giv'n Under all the mighty heav'n Whereby those to sin enslaved Burst their fetters and are saved. 6 Jesus! Name of wondrous love, Human name of God above; Pleading only this, we flee Helpless, 0 our God, to Thee. Topics: Redeemer Languages: English Tune Title: GOTT SEI DANK

The beneficence of Christ for our imitaion

Author: Dr. Gibbons Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CDXXXV (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Acts 10:38 First Line: When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay, What were His works, from day to day, But miracles of pow'r and grace, That spread salvation thro' our race? 2 Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view Thy pattern, and thy steps pursue; Let alms bestowed, let kindness done, Be witness'd by each rolling sun. 3 That man may last, but never lives, Who much receives but nothing gives, Whom none can love, whom none can thank; Creation's blot, creation's blank. 4 But he, who marks from day to day In generous acts his radiant way, Treads the same path his Savior trod, The path to glory and to God.
