"Our infirmities"

Author: Mrs. Amelia Wakeford Hymnal: Laudes Domini #192 (1888) Topics: Christ Character of First Line: Jesus, and didst thou condescend Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and didst thou condescend, When vailed in human clay, To heal the sick, the lame, the blind, And drive disease away? 2 Didst thou regard the beggar's cry, And give the blind to see? Jesus, thou Son of David, hear-- Have mercy, too, on me. 3 And didst thou pity mortal woe, And sight and health restore? Then pity, Lord, and save my soul, Which needs thy mercy more. 4 Didst thou regard thy servant's cry, When sinking in the wave? I perish, Lord, oh, save my soul! For thou alone canst save. Scripture: Jeremiah 8:22 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. LEONARD

"Way, Truth, and Life"

Author: George W. Doane Hymnal: Laudes Domini #193 (1888) Topics: Christ Character of First Line: Thou art the Way: to thee alone Lyrics: 1 Thou art the Way: to thee alone From sin and death we flee; And he who would the Father seek, Must seek him, Lord, by thee. 2 Thou art the Truth: thy word alone True wisdom can impart; Thou only canst inform the mind, And purify the heart. 3 Thou art the Life: the rending tomb Proclaims thy conquering arm; And those who put their trust in thee And death nor hell shall harm. 4 Thou art the Way, the Truth, the Life: Grant us that Way to know; That Truth to keep, that Life to win, Whose joys eternal flow.

"Friend of Sinners"

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #204 (1888) Topics: Christ Character of First Line: One there is above all others Lyrics: 1 One there is above all others, Well deserves the name of Friend; His is love beyond a brother's, Costly, free, and knows no end: They who once his kindness prove Find it everlasting love. 2 Which of all our friends, to save us, Could or would have shed his blood? But our Jesus died to have us Reconciled in him to God: This was boundless love indeed! Jesus is a friend in need. 3 When he lived on earth abased, "Friend of sinners" was his name; Now above all glories raised, He rejoices in the same; Still he calls them brethren, friends, And to all their wants attends. 4 Could we bear from one another What he daily bears from us? Yet this glorious Friend and Brother Loves us though we treat him thus: Though for good we render ill, He accounts us brethren still. 5 Oh, for grace our hearts to soften! Teach us, Lord, at length to love; We, alas! forget too often What a Friend we have above: But when home our souls are brought, We will love thee as we ought. Scripture: Proverbs 18:24 Languages: English Tune Title: MURIEL

Healing the Sick

Author: Godfrey Thring Hymnal: Laudes Domini #205 (1888) Topics: Christ Character of First Line: Thou to whom the sick and dying Lyrics: 1 Thou to whom the sick and dying Ever came, nor came in vain, Still with healing word replying To the weary cry of pain; Hear us, Jesus, as we meet, Suppliants at thy mercy-seat. 2 Every care and every sorrow, Be it great, or be it small; Yesterday, to-day, to-morrow, When, where'er, it may befall; Lay we humbly at thy feet, Suppliants round thy mercy-seat. 3 Still the weary, sick, and dying Need a brother's sister's care; On thy higher help relying, May we now their burden share: Bringing all our offerings meet, Suppliants to thy mercy-seat. 4 May each child of thine be willing. Willing both in hand and heart, Every law of love fulfilling. Every comfort to impart: Ever bringing offerings meet, Suppliants at thy mercy-seat. 5 Then shall sickness, sin, and sadness To thy healing power yield; Till the sick and sad in gladness, Rescued, ransomed, cleansed, healed, Shall the saints together meet, Pardoned at thy judgment seat! Scripture: Jeremiah 8:22 Languages: English Tune Title: MURIEL

"The King in his beauty"

Author: James G. Deck Hymnal: Laudes Domini #190 (1888) Topics: Christ Character of First Line: Lord Jesus! when I think of thee Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus! when I think of thee, Of all thy love and grace, My spirit longs and fain would see Thy beauty, face to face. 2 And though the wilderness I tread, A barren, thirsty ground, With thorns and briars overspread, Where foes and snares abound;-- 3 Yet in thy love such depths I see, My soul o'erflows with praise-- Contents itself, while, Lord, to thee A joyful song I raise. 4 My Lord, my Life, my Rest, my Shield, My Rock, my Food, my Light; Each thought of thee doth constant yield Unchanging, fresh delight. 5 My Saviour, keep my spirit stayed, Hard following after thee; Till I, in robes of white arrayed, Thy face in glory see.

Hosanna to the royal Son

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #112 (1899) Topics: Christ Character of Lyrics: 1 Hosanna to the royal Son Of David's ancient line, His natures two, His person one, Mysterious and divine, Mysterious and divine. 2 The root of David, here we find, And offspring is the same: Eternity and time are joined In our Immanuel's name. 3 Blest He that comes to wretched men With peaceful news from heaven; Hosannas of the highest strain To Christ the Lord be given. 4 Let mortals ne'er refuse to take Th'hosanna on their tongues, Lest rocks and stones should rise, and break Their silence into songs. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTMAS

Christ, exalted, is our song

Author: Kent Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #145 (1844) Topics: Offices and Characters of Christ Lyrics: 1 Christ exalted is our song, Hymned by all the blood-bought throng; To his throne our shouts shall rise; God with us by sacred ties. 2 Shout, believer, to thy God! He has once the wine-press trod; Peace procured by blood divine; Cancelled all thy sins and mine. 3 Here thy bleeding wounds are healed; Sin condemned and pardon sealed; Grace her empire still maintains; Christ without a rival reigns. 4 [Through corruption, felt within, Darkness, deadness, guilt, and sin, Still to Jesus turn thy eyes – Israel’s hope and sacrifice.] 5 In thy Surety thou art free; His dear hands were pierced for thee; With his spotless vesture on, Holy as the Holy One. 6 O the heights, the depths of grace, Shining with meridian blaze! Here the sacred records show Sinners black but comely too. 7 Saints dejected, cease to mourn; Faith shall soon to vision turn; Ye the kingdom shall obtain, And with Christ exalted reign.

"I am the Way"

Author: Hart Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #152 (1844) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Offices and Characters of Christ First Line: "I am," saith Christ, "the Way" Lyrics: 1 “I am,” saith Christ, “the Way”; Now, if we credit him, All other paths must lead astray, How fair soe’er they seem. 2 “I am,” says Christ, “the Truth”; Then all that lacks this test, Proceed it from an angel’s mouth, Is but a lie at best. 3 “I am,” says Christ, “the Life”; Let this be seen by faith, It follows, without further strife, That all besides is death. 4 If what those words aver, The Holy Ghost apply, The simplest Christian shall not err, Nor be deceived, nor die.

A Living Christ

Author: Richard Burnham Hymnal: Laudes Domini #382 (1888) Topics: Christ Character of First Line: Now I know the great Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Now I know the great Redeemer, Know he lives and spreads his fame; Lives--and all the heavens adore him; Lives--and earth resounds his name. 2 My Redeemer lives within me, Lives--and heavenly life conveys; Lives--and glory now surrounds me; Lives--and I his name shall praise. 3 Pardon, peace, and full salvation From my living Saviour flow; Light, and life, and consolation,-- All the good I e'er can know. 4 Soon shall I behold my Saviour; He who lives and reigns above, Lives--and I shall live for ever, Live and sing redeeming love!
