Take away the love of sinning; Alpha and Omega be; End of faith, as its beginning, Set our hearts at liberty. A-men. 3 Come, almighty to deliver, Let us all thy life receive; Suddenly return, and never, Nevermore thy temples leave. Thee we would be always blessing, Serve thee as thy hosts above, Pray and praise thee without ceasing, Glory in thy perfect love. 4 Finish then thy new creation, Pure and spotless let us be; Let us see thy great salvation Perfectly restored in thee! Changed from glory into glory, Till in heaven we take our place, Till we cast our crowns before thee, Lost in wonder, love, and praise. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HYFRYDOL

Awake, my soul, and sing Of him who died for thee, And hail him as thy matchless King Through all eternity. 2 Crown him the Lord of life, Who triumphed o'er the grave, And rose victorious in the strife For those he came to save. His glories now we sing, Who died and rose on high, Who died, eternal life to bring, And lives that death may die. 3 Crown him the Lord of love, Behold his hands and side, Rich wounds yet visible above In beauty glorified. No angel in the sky Can fully bear that sight, But downward bends his burning eye At mysteries so bright. 4 Crown him the Lord of peace, Whose power a sceptre sways From pole to pole, that wars may cease, Absorbed in prayer and praise. His reign shall know no end, And round his piercèd feet Fair flowers of Paradise extend Their fragrance ever sweet. 5 Crown him the Lord of years, The Potentate of time, Creator of the rolling spheres, Ineffably sublime. All hail, Redeemer, hail! For thou hast died for me; Thy praise and glory shall not fail Throughout eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: DIADEMATA

And my heart shall rejoice, Lord Jesus, When thou comest and callest for me. Languages: English Tune Title: MARGARET
