My Dear Redeemer and My Lord
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 573 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:1 Lyrics: 1 My dear Redeemer and my Lord,
I read my duty in thy word,
but in thy life the law appears
drawn out in living characters.
2 Such was thy truth, and such thy zeal,
such def'rence to thy Father's will,
such love, and meekness so divine,
I would transcribe and make them mine.
3 Cold mountains and the midnight air
witnessed the fervor of thy prayer;
the desert thy temptations knew,
thy conflict, and thy vict'ry too.
4 Be thou my pattern; make me bear
More of thy gracious image here;
then God, the Judge, shall own my name
amongst the foll'wers of the Lamb.

bearing the lamp of grace,
and in earth's darkest place
let there be light.

Jesus! the name high over all
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Appears in 299 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:18-21 Lyrics: 1 Jesus! the name high over all,
in hell, or earth, or sky;
angels and earthlings to it fall,
and devils fear and fly,
and devils fear and fly.
2 Jesus! the name to sinners dear,
the name to sinners given;
it scatters all their guilty fear,
it turns their hell to heaven,
it turns their hell to heaven.
3 Jesus! the prisoner's fetters breaks,
and bruises Satan's head;
power into strengthless souls it speaks,
and life into the dead,
and life into the dead.
4 O that the world might taste and see
the riches of his grace;
the arms of love that compass me
would everyone embrace,
would everyone embrace.
5 Happy, if with my dying breath
I might but gasp his name:
preach him to all, and cry in death:
behold, behold the Lamb,
behold, behold the Lamb!

I Cannot Tell
Author: William Y. Fullerton Meter: 11.10.11.10 D Appears in 33 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:18 First Line: I cannot tell why he whom angels worship Lyrics: 1 I cannot tell why he whom angels worship
should come in flesh as prophets long foretold,
or why the Shepherd longs to save the wanderers
and bring them back rejoicing to the fold.
But this I know, that he was born of Mary
when Bethlehem's manger was his only home,
and that he lived at Nazareth and labored,
and so the promised Savior of the world is come.
2 I cannot tell how silently he suffered
as with his peace he graced this place of tears,
or how his heart upon the cross was broken,
the crown of pain to three and thirty years.
But this I know, he heals the broken-hearted,
and stays our sin, and calms our lurking fear,
and lifts the burden from the heavy laden,
for still the suffering Savior of the world is here.
3 I cannot tell how he will win the nations,
how he will claim his earthly heritage,
how satisfy the needs and aspirations
of east and west, of sinner and of sage.
But this I know, all flesh shall see his glory,
and he shall reap the harvest he has sown,
and some glad day his sun shall shine in splendor,
when he, the risen Savior of the world, is known.
4 I cannot tell how all the lands shall worship
when at his bidding,every storm is stilled,
or who can say how great the jubilation
when all our hearts with love for him are filled.
But this I know, the skies will thrill with rapture,
and countless voices then will join to sing,
and earth to heaven, and heaven to earth will answer:
"At last the living Savior of the world is King!"
