Jesus, still lead on
Author: N. L. von Zinzendorf; Jane Borthwick Meter: 5.5.8.8.5.5 Appears in 291 hymnals Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Jesus, still lead on,
Till our rest be won;
And, although the way be cheerless,
We will follow, calm and fearless;
Guide us by thy hand
To our Fatherland.
409
If the way be drear,
If the foe be near,
Let not faithless fears o'ertake us,
Let not faith and hope forsake us;
For through many a woe
To our home we go.
When we seek relief
From a long-felt grief;
When temptations come alluring,
Make us patient and enduring;
Show us that bright shore
Where we weep no more.
Jesus, still lead on,
Till our rest be won:
Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, console, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our Fatherland.
Amen.

Jesus, still lead on
The Church's one foundation
Author: Samuel J. Stone Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 869 hymnals Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
The Church's one foundation
Is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is his new creation
By water and the word:
From heaven he came and sought her
To be his holy bride;
With his own blood he bought her,
And for her life he died.
422
Elect from every nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation,
One Lord, one faith, one birth;
One holy Name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food,
And to one hope she presses,
With every grace endued.
Though with a scornful wonder
Men see her sore opprest,
By schisms rent asunder,
By heresies distrest;
Yet saints their watch are keeping,
Their cry goes up, "How long?"
And soon the night of weeping
Shall be the morn of song.
'Mid toil and tribulation,
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace for evermore;
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest.
Yet she on earth hath union
With God the Three in One,
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won.
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
Like them, the meek and lowly,
On high may dwell with thee.
Amen.

Ye holy angels bright
Author: Richard Baxter; Richard R. Chope Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 114 hymnals Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Ye holy angels bright,
Who wait at God's right hand,
Or through the realms of light
Fly at your Lord's command,
Assist our song,
For else the theme
Too high doth seem
For mortal tongue.
Ye blessèd souls at rest,
Who ran this earthly race
And now, from sin released,
Behold the Savior's face,
God's praises sound,
As in his light
With sweet delight
Ye do abound.
Ye saints, who toil below,
Adore your heavenly King,
And onward as ye go
Some joyful anthem sing;
Take what he gives
And praise him still,
Through good or ill,
Who ever lives!
My soul, bear thou thy part,
Triumph in God above:
And with a well-tuned heart
Sing thou the songs of love!
Let all thy days
Till life shall end,
Whate'er he send,
Be filled with praise.

Ye holy angels bright
We love the place, O God
Author: William Bullock Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 103 hymnals Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
We love the place, O God,
Wherein thine honour dwells;
The joy of thine abode
All other joy excels.
We love the house of prayer,
Wherein thy servants meet;
For thou, O Lord, art there
Thy chosen ones to greet.
We love the sacred font,
Wherein the holy Dove
Bestows, as ever wont,
His blessing from above.
We love thine altar, Lord,
Its mysteries revere;
For there, in faith adored,
We find thy presence near.
We love thy holy word,
The lamp thou gav'st to guide
All wanderers home, O Lord,
Home to their Father's side.
Then let us sing the love
To us so freely given,
Until we sing above
The triumph song of heaven!
Amen.

Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 124 hymnals Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord
God of hosts, eternal King,
By the heavens and earth adored;
Angels and archangels sing,
Chanting everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
Since by thee were all things made,
And in thee do all things live,
Be to thee all honour paid,
Praise to thee let all things give,
Singing everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
Thousands, tens of thousands stand,
Spirits blest before thy throne,
Speeding thence at thy command;
And when thy command is done,
Singing everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
Cherubim and seraphim
Veil their faces with their wings;
Eyes of angels are too dim
To behold the King of kings,
While they sing eternally
To the blessed Trinity.
Thee, apostles, prophets, thee,
Thee, the noble martyr band,
Praise with solemn jubilee,
Thee, the Church in every land;
Singing everlastingly,
To the blessed Trinity.
Alleluia! Lord, to thee,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Three in One, and One in Three,
Join we with the heavenly host,
Singing everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
Amen.

Advent tells us Christ is near
Author: Katherine Hankey Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 18 hymnals Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Advent tells us Christ is near;
Christmas tells us Christ is here!
In Epiphany we trace
All the glory of his grace.
Those three Sundays before Lent
Will prepare us to repent,
That in Lent we may begin
Earnestly to mourn for sin.
Holy Week and Easter, then,
Tell who died and rose again:
O that happy Easter Day!
"Christ is risen indeed," we say.
Yes, and Christ ascended, too,
To prepare a place for you;
So we give him special praise,
After those great forty days.
Then, he sent the Holy Ghost,
On the day of Pentecost,
With us ever to abide:
Well may we keep Whitsuntide!
Last of all, we humbly sing
Glory to our God and King,
Glory to the One in Three,
On the Feast of Trinity.
Amen.

Jesus, meek and gentle
Author: George R. Prynne Meter: 6.5.6.5 Appears in 249 hymnals Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Jesus, meek and gentle,
Son of God most high,
Pitying, loving Savior,
Hear thy children's cry.
Pardon our offenses,
Loose our captive chains,
Break down every idol
Which our soul detains.
Give us holy freedom
Fill our hearts with love;
Draw us, holy Jesus,
To the realms above.
Lead us on our journey,
Be thyself the way
Through terrestrial darkness
To celestial day.

Jesus, meek and gentle,
Son of God most high,
Pitying, loving Savior,
Hear thy children's cry.
