Entered the holy place above
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 17 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Ascension Lyrics: 1 Entered the holy place above,
covered with meritorious scars,
the tokens of his dying love
our great high-priest in glory bears,
he pleads his passion on the tree,
he shows himself to God for me.
2 Before the throne my Saviour stands,
my friend and advocate appears;
my name is graven on his hands,
and him the Father always hears;
while low at Jesus' cross I bow,
he hears the blood of sprinkling now.
3 This instant now I may receive
the answer of his powerful prayer;
this instant now by him I live,
his prevalence with God declare;
and soon my spirit, in his hands,
shall stand where my forerunner stands.
Scripture: Hebrews 6:13-20 Used With Tune: ABINGDON

Bring to the Lord a glad new song
Up in heaven, up in heaven
Meter: Irregular Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Our Lord Jesus Christ His Ascension Lyrics: 1 Up in heaven, up in heaven,
In the bright place far away,
He whom bad men crucified
Sitteth at His Father's side,
Till the Judgment Day.
2 And He loves His little children,
And He pleads for children there,
Asking the great God of heaven
That their sins may be forgiven,
And He hears their prayers.
3 Nevermore a helpless Baby,
Born in poverty and pain;
But with awful glory crowned,
With His Angels standing round,
He shall come again.
4 Then the wicked souls shall tremble,
And the good souls shall rejoice;
Parents, children, every one,
Then shall stand before His Throne,
And shall hear His voice.
5 And all faithful, holy Christians,
Who their Master's work have done,
Shall appear at His right hand,
And inherit the fair land
That His love has won.
Amen. Used With Tune: IN COELIS

O Holy Spirit, enter in
Author: Miss Winkworth; Michael Schirmer Appears in 73 hymnals Topics: Sunday after Ascension Lyrics: 1 O Holy Spirit, enter in,
Among these hearts Thy work begin,
Thy temple deign to make us;
Sun of the soul, Thou Light Divine,
Around and in us brightly shine,
To strength and gladness wake us.
Where Thou shinest, Life from heaven
There is given.
We before Thee
For that precious gift implore Thee.
2 Left to ourselves we shall but stray;
O lead us on the narrow way,
With wisest counsel guide us,
And give us steadfastness, that we
May henceforth truly follow Thee,
Whatever woes betide us:
Heal thou gently, Hearts now broken,
Give some token
Thou art near us,
Whom we trust to light and cheer us.
3 O mighty Rock! O Source of Life,
Let Thy dear Word, 'mid doubt and strife,
Be so within us burning,
That we be faithful unto death,
In Thy pure love and holy faith,
From Thee true wisdom learning!
Lord, Thy graces, On us shower,
By Thy power
Christ confessing,
Let us win His grace and blessing.
4 O gentle Dew, from heaven now fall
With power upon the hearts of all,
Thy tenderness instilling;
That heart to heart more closely
Fruitful in kindly deeds be found,
The law of love fulfilling;
No wrath, no strife, Here shall grieve Thee,
We receive Thee,
Where thou livest
Peace and love and joy Thou givest.
5 Grant that our days, while life shall last,
In purest holiness be past;
Our minds so rule and strengthen
That thy may rise o'er things of earth,
The hopes and joys that here have birth;
And if our course Thou lengthen,
Keep Thou pure, Lord, From offences,
Heart and senses;
Blessed Spirit,
Bid us thus true life inherit. Used With Tune: WHITSUNDAY

Away with gloom, away with doubt!

Away with gloom, away with doubt!
Lo the rock is rolled away!
Author: Anon. Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 31 hymnals Topics: Christ Resurrection and Ascension Lyrics: 1 Lo, the stone is rolled away!
Death yields up his mighty prey;
Jesus, rising from the tomb,
Scatters all its fearful gloom.
2 Praise him, ye celestial choirs,
Praise, and sweep your golden lyres!
Praise him in the noblest songs,
From ten thousand thousand tongues.
3 Every note with rapture swell,
And the Saviour's triumph tell;
Where, O death! is now thy sting?
Where thy terrors, vanquished king?
4 Let Immanuel be adored,
Ransom, Mediator, Lord!
To creation's utmost bound
Let th' eternal praise resound.
Lo the rock is rolled away!
Mary to the Saviour's tomb
Author: Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 266 hymnals Topics: Christ Resurrection and Ascension Lyrics: 1 Mary to the Saviour's tomb
Hasted at the early dawn;
Spice she brought and sweet perfume,
But the Lord she loved had gone:
For a while she lingering stood,
Filled with sorrow and surprise,
Trembling, while a crystal flood
Issued from her weeping eyes.
2 But her sorrows quickly fled
When she heard his welcome voice;
Christ had risen from the dead;
Now he bids her heart rejoice:
What a change his word can make,
Turning darkness into day!
Ye who weep for Jesus' sake,
He will wipe your tears away.
Mary to the Saviour's tomb
When Jesus' time was fully come
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 When Jesus' time was fully come
To leave this world below;
Then he return'd to heav'n, his home!
Where he is worship'd now.
2 His work on earth is all complete:
His suff'rings have an end;
In heav'n he took his place and seat,
And reigns at God's right hand.
3 The Hosts of heaven praise his name,
And of his wonders sing;
Then let us join to do the same
And worship him our King.
4 To him, are endless praises due.
From all that live and move;
Yet men or angels cannot shew
The greatness of his love.
5 We shall more fully sing his praise:
When we get near his throne--
And love and thank him all our days,
For all that he has done. Scripture: Mark 16:14-20
