Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #60a (1917) Lyrics: 1 Joy to the world! the Lord is come; Let earth receive her King; Let every heart prepare Him room, And heaven and nature sing. 2 Joy to the world! the Saviour reigns, Let men their songs employ; While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains Repeat the sounding joy. 3 No more let sin and sorrow grow, Nor thorns infest the ground; He comes to make His blessings flow Far as the curse is found. 4 He rules the world with truth and grace And makes the nations prove The glories of His righteous, And wonders of His love.

There is a green hill far away

Author: Mrs. Cecil Frances Alexander, 1823-1895 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #61a (1917) Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away, Without a city wall, Where the dear Lord was crucified, Who died to save us all. 2 We may not know, we cannot tell What pains He had to bear; But we believe it was for us He hung and suffered there. 3 He died that we might be forgiven, He died to make us good, That we might go at last to heaven, Saved by His precious blood. 4 There was no other good enough To pay the price of sin; He only could unlock the gate Of heaven, and let us in. 5 Oh, dearly, dearly has He loved! And we must love Him too; And trust in His redeeming blood, And try His works to do. Topics: Christ Cross of; The Godhead The Son; Substitute, Christ our Languages: English Tune Title: HORSLEY

Jesus, great Shepherd of the sheep

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #63 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, great Shepherd of the sheep, To Thee for help we fly; Thy little flock in safety keep; For O! the wolf is nigh. 2 Us into Thy protection take, And gather with Thy arm; Unless the fold we first forsake The wolf can never harm. 3 We laugh to scorn his cruel power, While by our Shepherd's side; The sheep he never can devour, Unless he first divide. 4 O do not suffer him to part The souls that here agree; But make us of one mind and heart, And keep us one in Thee! 5 Together let us sweetly live, Together let us die; And each a starry crown receive, And reign above the sky.

Jesus! the name high over all

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #65 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Jesus! the name high over all, In hell, or earth, or sky; Angels and men before it fall, And devils fear and fly. 2 Jesus! the name to sinners dear, The name to sinners given; It scatters all their guilty fear, It turns their hell to heaven. 3 Jesus the prisoner's fetters breaks, And bruises Satan's head; Power into strengthless souls it speaks, And life into the dead. 4 O that the world might taste and see The riches of His grace! The arms of love that compass me Would all mankind embrace. 5 His only righteousness I show, His saving truth proclaim; 'Tis all my business here below To cry, "Behold the Lamb!" 6 Happy, if with my latest breath I may but gasp His name; Preach Him to all, and cry in death, "Behold, behold the Lamb!"
