The atoning Priest
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 159 hymnals First Line: Now to the Lord, who makes us know Lyrics: 1 Now to the Lord, who makes us know
The wonders of his dying love,
Be humble honors paid below,
And strains of nobler praise above.
2 'Twas he who cleansed our foulest sins,
And washed us in his precious blood;
'Tis he who makes us priest and kings,
And brings us rebels near to God.
3 To Jesus, our atoning Priest,
To Jesus, our eternal King,
Be everlasting power confessed!
Let every tongue his glory sing.
4 Behold! on flying clouds he comes,
And every eye shall see him move;
Though with our sins we pierced him once,
He now displays his pardoning love.
5 The unbelieving world shall wail,
While we rejoice to see the day;
Come, Lord! nor let thy promise fail,
Nor let thy chariot long delay. Topics: The Lord Jesus Christ; Christ Priest; Christ Resurrection of; Intercession; Christ Priest; Christ Resurrection of; Intercession Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

Who from his altar call;
Extol the stem of Jesse's rod,
And crown him Lord of all.
3 Ye chosen seed of Israel's race,
Ye ransomed from the fall;
Hail him, who saves you by his grace,
And crown him Lord of all.
4 Sinners, whose love can ne'er forget
The wormwood and the gall;
Go, spread your trophies at his feet,
And crown him Lord of all.
5 Let every kindred, every tribe,
On this terrestrial ball,
To him all majesty ascribe,
And crown him Lord of all.
6 Oh, that with yonder sacred throng,
We at his feet may fall;
We'll join the everlasting song
And crown him Lord of all. Topics: Exaltation and Offices Used With Tune: CORONATION

The Prince of Peace
Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 356 hymnals First Line: Light of those whose dreary dwelling Lyrics: 1 Light of those whose dreary dwelling
Borders on the shades of death!
Rise on us, thy love revealing,
Dissipate the clouds beneath:
Thou of heaven and earth Creator,
In our deepest darkness rise,
Scattering all the night of nature,
Pouring day upon our eyes.
2 Still we wait for thine appearing;
Life and joy thy beams impart,
Chasing all our fears, and cheering
Every poor benighted heart:
Come and manifest thy favor
To the ransomed, helpless race;
Come, thou glorious God and Saviour!
Come, and bring the gospel grace.
3 Save us, in thy great compassion,
O thou mild, pacific Prince!
Give the knowledge of salvation,
Give the pardon of our sins;
By thine all-sufficient merit,
Every burdened soul release;
Every weary, wandering spirit,
Guide into thy perfect peace. Topics: The Prince of Peace; Assurance Prayed for; Christ Divinity of; Christ Saviour; Church Revival of; Millennium; Assurance Prayed for; Christ Divinity of; Christ Saviour; Church Revival of; Millennium Used With Tune: MIDDLETON

Till thy mercy's beams I see;
Till they inward light impart,
Warmth and gladness to my heart.

Pierce the gloom of sin and grief;
Fill me, radiant Sun divine!
Scatter all my unbelief;
More and more thyself display,
Shining to the perfect day. Topics: Morning Worship; Morning Worship; Opening of Service; Morning Worship; Opening of Service Used With Tune: HALLE

Worn out with these long years of ill,
These ages of delay.

Build up this ruined earth,
Restore our faded paradise,
Creation's second birth.

Of everlasting peace;

On our dark souls to shine,

Our icy coldness end;
Our devious steps attend,
While heavenward bound.

Give virtue's rich reward;
Victorious death accord,
And, with our glorious Lord,

Invocation
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 1,218 hymnals First Line: Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove! Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove!
With all thy quickening powers,
Kindle a flame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of ours.
2 Look! how we grovel here below,
Fond of these trifling toys!
Our souls can neither fly nor go
To reach eternal joys.
3 In vain we tune our formal songs;
In vain we strive to rise;
Hosannas languish on our tongues,
And our devotion dies.
4 Dear Lord, and shall we ever live
At this poor dying rate
Our love so faint, so cold to thee,
And thine to us so great?
5 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove!
With all thy quickening powers;
Come, shed abroad a Saviour's love,
And that shall kindle ours. Topics: The Holy Spirit; Faith; Heart Change of; Faith; Heart Change of Used With Tune: STEPHENS

And to our wondering view reveal
The mercies of our God.

And kindle in our breasts the flame
Of never-dying love.

To sanctify the soul,
To pour fresh life in every part,
And new-create the whole.

Our minds from bondage free;
Then shall we know, and praise, and love,
The Father, Son, and thee.

Bending before the throne,
Sing, Holy, Holy, Holy,
To the Great Three in One.

The heavenly manna falls;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.

We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest,
To Holy Ghost be praises,

To thee, blest Three in One. Topics: The Lord's Day; Lord's Day; Opening of Service; Sabbath; Lord's Day; Opening of Service; Sabbath Used With Tune: MENDEBRAS
