Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 119 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 2:5-11 Lyrics: 1 To the Name of our salvation laud and honour let us pay, which for many a generation hid in God's foreknowledge lay; but with holy exultation we may sing aloud today. 2 Jesus is the name we treasure, name beyond what words can tell; name of gladness, name of pleasure, ear and heart delighting well; name of sweetness passing measure, saving us from sin and hell. 3 'Tis the name that whoso preaches speaks like music to the ear; who in prayer this name beseeches finds its comfort ever near; who its perfect wisdom reaches, heavenly joy possesses here. 4 Jesus is the name exalted over every other name; in this name, whene'er assaulted, we can put our foes to shame: strength to them who else had halted, eyes to blind and feet to lame. 5 Therefore we in love adoring, this most blessed name revere, holy Jesus, thee imploring so to write it in us here that, hereafter heavenward soaring, we may sing with angels there.

A maiden in her place became in ways beyond all thought the vessel of his grace. 4 He shrank not from the oxen's stall, nor scorned the manger bed; and he, whose bounty feedeth all, at Mary's breast was fed. 5 To shepherds poor the Lord most high, Great Shepherd, was revealed While angel choirs sang joyously above the midnight field: 6 "All glory be to God above, and on the earth be peace to all who long to taste his love, till time itself shall cease."

Hymn 130

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 35 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 2:2 First Line: Now by the bowels of my God Lyrics: Now by the bowels of my God, His sharp distress, his sore complaints, By his last groans, his dying blood, I charge my soul to love the saints. Clamor, and wrath, and war, begone, Envy and spite, for ever cease; Let bitter words no more be known Amongst the saints, the sons of peace. The Spirit, like a peaceful dove, Flies from the realms of noise and strife: Why should we vex and grieve his love Who seals our souls to heav'nly life? Tender and kind be all our thoughts, Through all our lives let mercy run; So God forgives our num'rous faults, For the dear sake of Christ his Son.
