Jesus, The Word Of Mercy Give

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 50 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the word of mercy give, And let it swiftly run, And let the priests themselves believe, And put salvation on. 2 Clothed in the Spirit’s holiness May all Thy people prove The plenitude of Gospel grace The joy of perfect love. 3 Jesus, let all Thy lovers shine, Illustrious, as the sun; And bright with borrowed rays divine, Their glorious circuit run. 4 Beyond the reach of mortals spread Their light where’er they go; Heavenly influence may they shed On all the world below. 5 As giants may they run their race, Exulting in their might: As burning luminaries chase The gloom of hellish night. 6 As the bright Son of Righteousness Their healing wings display; And let their luster still increase Unto the perfect day.

The Winds Were Howling O'er The Deep

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 27 hymnals First Line: The winds were howling o’er the deep Lyrics: 1 The winds were howling o’er the deep, Each wave a watery hill; The Savior wakened from His sleep, He spake, and all was still. 2 The madman in a tomb had made His mansion of despair; Woe to the traveler who strayed With heedless footstep there! 3 The chains hung broken from his arm, Such strength can hell supply; And fiendish hate, and fierce alarm Flashed from his hollow eye. 4 He met that glance so thrilling sweet, He heard those accents mild, And, melting at Messiah’s feet, Wept like a weanèd child. 5 Oh madder than the raving man! Oh deafer than the sea! How long the time since Christ began To call in vain on me? 6 He called me when my thoughtless prime Was early ripe to ill; I passed from folly on to crime, And yet He called me still. 7 He called me in the time of dread, When death was full in view; I trembled on my feverish bed, And rose to sin anew. 8 Yet could I hear Him once again, As I have heard of old, Methinks He should not call in vain His wanderer to the fold. 9 Oh Thou, that every thought canst know, And answer every prayer; Oh give me sickness, want, or woe, But snatch me from despair! 10 My struggling will by grace control, Renew my broken vow! What blessèd light breaks on my soul? Oh God! I hear Thee now.
