To the name of our salvation

Author: Anon.; Rev. J. M. Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #321 (1894) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 To the Name of our salvation Laud and honor 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 for adoration, Name for songs of victory, Name for holy meditation In this vale of misery, Name for joyful veneration By the citizens on high. 4 'Tis the Name that whoso preacheth Speaks like music to the ear; Who in prayer this Name beseecheth Sweetest comfort findeth near; Who its perfect wisdom reacheth, Heavenly joy possesseth here. 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.

Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #400b (1894) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Blessed city, heavenly Salem, Vision dear of peace and love, Who of living stones art builded In the height of heaven above, And, with angel hosts encircled, As a bride dost earthward move; 2 From celestial realms descending, Bridal glory round thee shed, Meet for Him Whose love espoused thee, To thy Lord shall thou be led; All thy streets and all thy bulwarks Of pure gold are fashionèd. 3 Bright thy gates of pearl are shining, They are open evermore; And by virtue of His merits Thither faithful souls do soar, Who for Christ's dear Name, in this world Pain and tribulation bore. 4 Many a blow and biting sculpture Polished well those stones elect, In their places now compacted By the heavenly Architect, Who therewith hath willed forever That His palace should be decked. 5 Laud and honor to the Father, Laud and honor to the Son, Laud and honor to the Spirit, Ever Three, and ever One, Consubstantial, Co-eternal, While unending ages run. Amen. Topics: All Saints; General; Processional; Church Triumphant Languages: English Tune Title: [Blessed city, heavenly Salem]

Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #483b (1894) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Christ is made the sure foundation, Christ the head and cornerstone, Chosen of the Lord, and precious, Binding all the Church in one; Holy Sion's help forever, And her confidence alone. 2 All that dedicated city, Dearly loved of God on high, In exultant jubilation Pours perpetual melody; God the One in Three adoring In glad hymns eternally. 3 To this temple, where we call Thee, Come, O Lord of Hosts, to-day; With Thy wonted loving-kindness, Hear Thy servants as they pray; And Thy fullest benediction Shed within its walls alway. 4 Here vouchsafe to all Thy servants What they ask of Thee to gain, What they gain from Thee, forever With the blessèd to retain, And hereafter in Thy glory Evermore with Thee to reign. Amen. Topics: Consecration of Churches Tune Title: [Christ is made the sure foundation]
