Ye servants of God, your Master proclaim

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-88) Appears in 669 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ye servants of God, your Master proclaim, And publish abroad his wonderful name; The name all-victorious of Jesus extol; His Kingdom is glorious and rules over all. 2 God ruleth on high, almighty to save; And still he is nigh, his presence we have; The great congregation his triumphs shall sing, Ascribing salvation to Jesus our King. 3 Then let us adore and give him his right, All glory and power, all wisdom and might; All honour and blessing, with angels above, And thanks never-ceasing and infinite love!

God moves in a mysterious way

Author: William Cowper (1731-1800) Appears in 1,132 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform; He plants his footsteps in the sea And rides upon the storm. 2 Deep in unfathomable mines Of never-failing skill, He treasures up his bright designs, And works his sovereign will. 3 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take: The clouds ye so much dread Are big with mercy, and shall break In blessings on your head. 4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust him for his grace; Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. 5 His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower. 6 Blind unbelief is sure to err And scan his work in vain; God is his own interpreter, And he will make it plain.

Beyond the earth, beyond the sea, First let me hear, then sing to thee A melody of love. Topics: God the Father Works

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-88) Appears in 183 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let earth and Heaven agree, Angels and men be joined, To celebrate with me The Saviour of mankind; To adore the all-atoning Lamb, And bless the sound of Jesus’ name. 2 Jesus, transporting sound, The joy of earth and Heaven; No other help is found, No other name is given By which we can salvation have; But Jesus came the world to save. 3 His name the sinner hears, And is from sin set free; ‘Tis music in his ears, ‘Tis life and victory! New songs do now his lips employ, And dances his glad heart for joy. 4 O unexampled love! O all-redeeming grace! How swiftly didst thou move To save a fallen race: What shall I do to make it known What thou for all mankind hast done? 5 O for a trumpet voice On all the world to call, To bid their hearts rejoice In him who died for all! For all my Lord was crucified, For all, for all my Saviour died. Topics: The Lord Jesus Christ Name
