Jesus, the name high over all
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 299 hymnals Scripture: James 4:7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the name high over all,
in hell, or earth, or sky;
angels and mortals prostrate fall,
and devils fear and fly,
and devils fear and fly.
2 Jesus, the name to sinners dear,
the name to sinners giv'n;
it scatters all their guilty fear,
it turns their hell to heaven,
it turns their hell to heaven.
3 Jesus, the pris'ner's fetters breaks,
and bruises Satan's head;
pow'r into strengthless souls he 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,
hold all the human race,
hold all the human race.
5 His only righteousness I show,
his saving truth proclaim;
'tis all my business here below
to cry, 'Behold the Lamb!'
to cry, 'Behold the Lamb!'
6 Happy, if with my latest breath
I may but gasp his name;
preach him to all, and cry in death:
'Behold, behold the Lamb!'
'Behold, behold the Lamb!' Topics: Easter; Joy, Praise and Thanksgiving; Year A Christ the King Used With Tune: LYDIA

A nearness to my God,
Then would my hours glide sweet away
While leaning on his word.

Anew from day to day,
In joys the world can never give,
Nor ever take away.
3 Blest Jesus, come and rule my heart,
And make me wholly thine,
That I may never more depart,
Nor grieve thy love divine.
4 Thus, till my last, expiring breath,
Thy goodness I'll adore;
And when my frame dissolves in death,
My soul shall love thee more. Topics: Absence from God; Afflictions; Backsliding; Christians Conflicts; Conflict With Sin; Consistency; Constancy; Declenson spiritual Used With Tune: EVAN

Author: John Chandler, 1806-1876 Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 186 hymnals Scripture: James 4:8 Lyrics: 1 Christ is our corner-stone,
on him alone we build;
with his true saints alone
the courts of heaven are filled:
on his great love
our hopes we place
of present grace
and joys above.
2 O then with hymns of praise
these hallowed courts shall ring;
our voices we will raise
the Three in One to sing;
and thus proclaim
in joyful song,
both loud and long,
that glorious name.
3 Here, gracious God, do thou
for evermore draw nigh;
accept each faithful vow,
and mark each suppliant sigh;
in copious shower
on all who pray
each holy day
thy blessings pour.
4 Here may we gain from heaven
the grace which we implore;
and may that grace, once given,
be with us evermore,
until that day
when all the blest
to endless rest
are called away.

"Looking unto Jesus"
Author: John N. Darby Appears in 153 hymnals Scripture: James 4:8 First Line: O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore! Lyrics: 1 O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore!
Look off unto Jesus, now sorrow no more!
The light of his countenance shineth so bright,
That here, as in heaven, there need be no night.
2 While looking to Jesus, my heart cannot fear;
I tremble no more when I see Jesus near;
I know that his presence my safeguard will be,
For, "Why are you troubled," he saith unto me.
3 Still looking to Jesus, oh, may I be found,
When Jordan's dark waters encompass me round;
They bear me away in his presence to be:
I see him still nearer whom always I see.
4 Then, then shall I know the full beauty and grace
Of Jesus, my Lord, when I stand face to face;
Shall know how his love went before me each day,
And wonder that ever my eyes turned away. Topics: Assurance Urged; Blindness; Christians Encouragements; Comfort; Courage Used With Tune: GOSHEN
