Bright king of glory, dreadful God!
Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 99 hymnals Scripture: John 10:30 Lyrics: 1 Bright king of glory, dreadful God!
Our spirits bow before thy feet:
To thee we lift an humble thought,
And worship at thine awful seat.
2 A thousand seraphs strong and bright
Stand round the glorious Deity;
But who, among those sons of light,
Pretends comparison with thee?
3 Yet there is One of human frame,
Jesus, arrayed in flesh and blood,
Thinks it no robbery to claim
A full equality with God.
4 Then let the name of Christ our King
With equal honors be adored;
His praise let every angel sing,
And all the nations own the Lord.

O Christ, our true and only Light
Author: Johann Heermann; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 96 hymnals Scripture: John 10:27 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our true and only Light,
Illumine those who sit in night;
Let those afar now hear thy voice,
And in thy fold with us rejoice.
2 And all who else have strayed from thee,
O gently seek; thy healing be
To ev'ry wounded conscience giv'n;
And let them also share thy heav'n.
3 O make the deaf to hear thy Word;
And teach the dumb to speak, dear Lord,
Who dare not yet the faith avow,
Though secretly they hold it now.
4 Shine on the darkened and the cold;
Recall the wand'rers from thy fold;
Unite those now who walk apart;
Confirm the weak and doubting heart.
5 So they with us may evermore
Such grace with wond'ring thanks adore,
And endless praise to thee be giv'n
By all the church in earth and heav'n.
Amen. Topics: Backsliding; Calling; Christ The Light; The Church The Kingdom of God; The Church Unity or Used With Tune: BRESLAU

Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 67 hymnals Scripture: John 10:27-30 First Line: My soul, with joy attend Lyrics: 1 My soul, with joy attend,
While Jesus silence breaks;
No angel’s harp such music yields,
As what my shepherd speaks.
2 "I know my sheep," he cries,
"My soul approves them well:
"Vain is the treacherous world’s disguise,
"And vain the rage of hell.
3 "I freely feed them now
"With tokens of my love,
"But richer pastures I prepare,
"And sweeter streams above.
4 "Unnumber'd years of bliss
"I to my sheep will give;
"And, while my throne unshaken stands,
"Shall all my chosen live.
5 "This tried almighty hand
"Is rais'd for their defence:
"Where is the power shall reach them there?
"Or what shall force them thence?
6 Enough, my gracious Lord,
Let faith triumphant cry;
My heart can on this promise live,
Can on this promise die. Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Perseverance; Perseverance in grace; Safety of Christ's sheep; Sheep of Christ secure

O Shine upon These, Lord
Author: John Ellerton Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Appears in 53 hymnals Scripture: John 10:27-28 Lyrics: 1 O shine upon these, Lord,
the men ordained today,
that through the written Word,
Christ Jesus they display.
And from their hearts which burn
with gazing on your face,
that we, your people, learn
the wonders of your grace.
2 O breathe upon them, Lord,
your Spirit's living flame,
so that with one accord
their lips may tell your name.
Give them the hearing ear,
direct their ev'ry thought,
that those they serve may hear
the great things you have wrought.
3 O live within them, Lord,
your mind and will be theirs.
You, the Belov'd, adored,
and served with all their pow'rs,
that so your lambs may know
the one true Shepherd's voice.
Where Christ leads, may they go,
and in your call rejoice.
