Christ, Precious to them that Believe

Plunged in a gulf of dark despair

Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #182 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Galatians 4:4-5 Lyrics: 1 Plunged in a gulf of dark despair, We wretched sinners lay, Without one cheerful beam of hope Or spark of glimmering day. 2 With pitying eyes the Prince of Grace Behold our helpless grief; He saw, and--oh, amazing love!-- He ran to our relief. 3 Down from the shining seats above, With joyful haste he fled, Entered the grave in mortal flesh, And dwelt among the dead. 4 Oh, for this love, let rocks and hills Their lasting silence break, And all harmonious human tongues The Saviour's praises speak. 5 Angels, assist our mighty joys, Strike all your harps of gold; But when you raise your highest notes, His love can ne'er be told.

Refrain: Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, born is the King of Israel. 2 They looked up and saw a star shining in the east beyond them far; and to the earth it gave great light, and so it continued both day and night. [Refrain] 3 And by the light of that same star three wise men came from country far; to seek for a king was their intent, and to follow the star wherever it went. [Refrain] 4 This star drew nigh to the northwest; o’er Bethlehem it took its rest, and there it did both stop and stay, right over the place where Jesus lay. [Refrain] 5 Then entered in those wise men three, full reverently upon their knee, and offered there in his presence their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense. [Refrain] 6 Then let us all with one accord sing praises to our heavenly Lord, that hath made heaven and earth of nought, and with his blood our life hath bought.

Hymn 64

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.64 (1806) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Scripture: Galatians 4:6 First Line: Behold what wondrous grace Lyrics: Behold what wondrous grace The Father has bestowed On sinners of a mortal race, To call them sons of God! 'Tis no surprising thing That we should be unknown; The Jewish world knew not their king, God's everlasting Son. Nor doth it yet appear How great we must be made; But when we see our Savior here, We shall be like our Head. A hope so much divine May trials well endure; May purge our souls from sense and sin, As Christ the Lord is pure. If in my Father's love I share a filial part, Send down thy Spirit like a dove, To rest upon my heart. We would no longer lie Like slaves beneath the throne; My faith shall Abba, Father, cry, And thou the kindred own. Languages: English
