See The Old Dragon From His Throne

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 See the old dragon from his throne Sink with enormous ruin down! Banished from Heav’n, and doomed to dwell Deep in the fiery gloom of hell! 2 Ye heav’ns with all your hosts, rejoice: Ye saints, in consort lend your voice; Approach your Lord’s victorious seat, And tread the foe beneath your feet. 3 But whence a conquest so divine Gained by such feeble hands as mine? Or whence can sinful mortals boast O’er Satan and his rebel host? 4 ’Twas from Thy blood, Thou slaughtered lamb, That all our palms and triumphs came; The cross, thy spear inflicts the stroke, By which the monster’s head is broke. 5 Thy faithful Word our hope maintains Through all our combat and our pains; The accents of Thy heav’nly breath Thy soldiers bear through wounds and death. 6 Triumphant Lamb, in worlds unknown, With transport round Thy radiant throne, Thy happy legions, all complete, Shall lay their laurels at Thy feet.

Lord, by Thy Word deliv'rance work

Author: Dr. Martin Luther; Richard Massie Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, by Thy Word deliv'rance work, And stay the hand of Pope and Turk, Who fain from Christ would wrest the crown, And from His kingdom hurl Him down. 2 Lord Jesus Christ, Thy power make known, For Thou art Lord of lords alone; Defend Thy Christendom, that we May evermore sing praise to Thee. 3 Thou Comforter of priceless worth, Give us one mind and heart on earth; Be with us in our last dread strife, And lead us out of death to life. 4 Destroy their counsels, Lord our God, And humble them with iron rod; And let them fall into the snare Which for Thy Christians they prepare. 5 So that at last they may perceive That, Lord our God, Thou still dost live, And dost deliver mightily All those who put their trust in Thee.

Ludzie czasu ostatniego

Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Ludzie czasu ostatniego jęli się wszystkiego złego; nic o Boga już nie dbają, kary sime też nie lękają. 2 W grzechy wielkie się udali i z błędami się związali; starzy, młodzi w każdym stanie mają w złym upodobanie. 3 Ach, jak smutne są objawy, że chrześcijańskie giną sprawy! Świat pogardza łaską Bożą, złości się pogańskie mnożą. 4 Słowem Bożym pogardzają, w lubieżnościach się kochają; za doczesnym zyskiem gonią, a od skarbów wiecznych stronią. 5 Chryste, broń stadeczka swego od skażenia czasu tego; pomóż szczerze pokutować, z prawej drogi nie zstępować. 6 W wierze utwierdź nas prawdziwej i w miłości niewątpliwej, daj nadzieję też wiecznego życia w domu Ojca swego. 7 Pozbawieni błędów, z-ɵści, w niewymownej tam radości wiecznie chcemy być zbawieni i z świętymi połączeni.

Whence Come Those Loud And Mournful Cries

Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Whence come those loud and mournful cries Lyrics: 1 Whence come those loud and mournful cries, That speak a mind bereft of joy? They come from him who yonder lies, Where flames devour, but can’t destroy. 2 I wonder not that he should fill The world with loud incessant cries; He feels no joy, nor ever will; His foe the worm that never dies. 3 "One drop of water! one!" he cries: Unhappy wretch! what woe is thine? While Justice with a frown replies, "It cannot be—the prisoner’s mine!" 4 Beholding such a sight as this, Let things eternal be my care And never may my case be his, Whom God abandons to despair. 5 I’ll keep in view the sinner’s friend, Whose arms I see extended wide: At sight of Him, my terrors end; His merit all my guilt will hide.
