From all that dwell below the skies
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 1,282 hymnals Lyrics: 1 From all that dwell below the skies
Let the Creator's praise arise;
Let the Redeemer's Name be sung
Through every land, by every tongue.

Eternal truth attends thy word;
Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore,
Till suns shall rise and set no more.

Good Christian men, rejoice
Author: John Mason Neale, 1818 - 66 Appears in 220 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Good Christian men, rejoice,

And he is in the manger now.
Christ is born today!
Christ is born today!

With heart, and soul, and voice;
Now ye hear of endless bliss:
Jesus Christ was born for this!
He hath ope'd the heavenly door,
And man is blessèd evermore.
Christ was born for this!
Christ was born for this!
3 Good Christian men, rejoice,
With heart, and soul, and voice;

Jesus Christ was born to save!
Calls you one and calls you all
To gain his everlasting hall.

Jesus, Name of wondrous love
Author: William Walsham How, 1823 - 97 Appears in 166 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Name of wondrous love,
Name all other names above!
Unto which must every knee
Bow in deep humility.
2 Jesus, Name of priceless worth
To the fallen sons of earth,
For the promise that it gave,
'Jesus shall his people save.'
3 Jesus, Name of mercy mild,
Given to the holy Child
When the cup of human woe
First he tasted here below. A-men.
4 Jesus, only Name that's given
Under all the mighty heaven,
Whereby man, to sin enslaved,
Burst his fetters and is saved.
5 Jesus! Name of wondrous love!
Human Name of God above;
Pleading only this we flee,
Helpless, 0 our God, to thee.

Jesus, Name of wondrous love
Jesus, thou Joy of loving hearts
Author: Ray Palmer, 1808 - 87; St. Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091 - 1153 Appears in 563 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thou Joy of loving hearts,
Thou fount of life, thou Light of men,
From the best bliss that earth imparts
We turn unfilled to thee again.
2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood;
Thou savest those that on thee call;
To them that seek thee thou art good,
To them that find thee, all in all.
3 We taste thee, O thou living Bread,
And long to feast upon thee still;
We drink of thee, the Fountainhead,
And thirst our souls from thee to fill. A-men.
4 Our restless spirits yearn for thee,
Where'er our changeful lot is cast;
Glad, when thy gracious smile we see,
Blest, when our faith can hold thee fast.
5 O Jesus, ever with us stay;
Make all our moments calm and bright;
Chase the dark night of sin away,
Shed o'er the world thy holy light.

Jesus, thou Joy of loving hearts
Lord, it belongs not to my care
Author: Richard Baxter, 1615 - 91 Appears in 258 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care
Whether I die or live;
To love and serve thee is my share,
And this thy grace must give.
2 If life be long, I will be glad
That I may long obey;
If short, yet why should I be sad
To welcome endless day?
3 Christ leads me through no darker rooms
Than he went through before;
He that into God's kingdom comes
Must enter by this door.
4 Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet
Thy blessèd face to see;
For if thy work on earth be sweet,
What will thy glory be?
5 My knowledge of that life is small,
The eye of faith is dim;
But 'tis enough that Christ knows all,
And I shall be with him. Topics: The Church Year Lent; The Life In Christ Comfort and Rest; The Life In Christ Life Everlasting; The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith Used With Tune: CHESHIRE
Lord, it belongs not to my care
O for a closer walk with God
Author: William Cowper, 1731 - 1800 Appears in 1,373 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God,
A calm and heavenly frame,
A light to shine upon the road
That leads me to the Lamb!
2 Where is the blessedness I knew
When first I sought the Lord?
Where is the soul-refreshing view
Of Jesus and his word?
3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed!
How sweet their memory still!
But they have left an aching void
the world can never fill.
4 Return, O holy Dove, return,
Sweet messenger of rest!
I hate the sins that made thee mourn,
And drove thee from my breast.
5 The dearest idol I have known,
Whate'er that idol be,
Help me to tear it from thy throne,
And worship only thee.
6 So shall my walk be close with God,
Calm and serene my frame;
So purer light shall mark the road
That leads me to the Lamb. Topics: The Church Year Septuagesima to Lent; The Church Year Lent; Confirmation; The Life in Christ Aspiration; The Life In Christ The Inner Life Used With Tune: CAITHNESS
O for a closer walk with God
O God of mercy, God of might
Author: Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Appears in 105 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God of mercy, God of might,
In love and pity infinite,
Teach us, as ever in thy sight,
To live our life to thee.
2 And thou, who cam'st on earth to die
That fallen man might live thereby,
O hear us, for to thee we cry,
In hope, O Lord, to thee. A-men.
3 Teach us the lesson thou hast taught,
To feel for those thy Blood hath bought,
That every word and deed and thought
May work a work for thee.
4 For all are brethren, far and wide,
Since thou, O Lord, for all hast died;
Then teach us, whatsoe'er betide,
To love them all in thee.
5 In sickness, sorrow, want, or care,
Whate'er it be, 'tis ours to share;
May we, when help is needed, there
Give help as unto thee.
6 And may thy Holy Spirit move
All those who live, to live in love,
Till thou shalt greet in heaven above
All those who live to thee.
Amen. Topics: Church Life and Work The Propagation of the Gospel Used With Tune: JUST AS I AM (BARNBY)
O God of mercy, God of might
O thou in all thy might so far
Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer, 1840 - 1929 Appears in 88 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O thou in all thy might so far,
In all thy love so near,
Beyond the range of sun and star,
And yet beside us here:
2 What heart can comprehend thy Name,
Or searching find thee out,
Who art within, a quickening flame,
A presence round about?
3 Yet though I know thee but in part,
I ask not, Lord, for more;
Enough for me to know thou art,
To love thee, and adore.
4 And dearer than all things I know
Is childlike faith to me,
That makes the darkest way I go
An open path to thee.

O thou in all thy might so far
Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Author: Henry Hart Milman, 1791 - 1868 Appears in 506 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Hark! All the tribes Hosanna cry;
O Saviour meek, pursue thy road
With palms and scattered garments strowed.
2 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die!
O Christ, thy triumphs now begin
O'er captive death and conquered sin.
3 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
The winged squadrons of the sky
Look down with sad and wondering eyes
To see the approaching sacrifice.
4 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Thy last and fiercest strife is nigh:
The Father on his sapphire throne
Expects his own anointed Son.
5 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die!
Bow thy meek head to mortal pain,
Then take, O God, thy power and reign.

O perfect life of love
Author: Henry Williams Baker, 1821-77 Appears in 86 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O perfect life of love,
All, all is finished now;
All that he left his throne above
To do for us below.!
2 No work is left undone
Of all the Father willed;
His toil and sorrows, one by one,
The Scripture have fulfilled. A-men.
3 No pain that we can share
But he has felt its smart:
All forms of human grief and care
Have pierced that tender heart.
4 In perfect love he dies;
For me he dies, for me!
O all-atoning Sacrifice,
I cling by faith to thee.
5 Yet work O Lord, in me,
As thou for me hast wrought;
And let my love the answer be
To grace thy love hast brought.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Good Friday Used With Tune: GORTON
