My God, I Love You, Not Because
Author: Francis Xavier; Edward Caswall Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #602 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Love for Christ Lyrics: 1 My God, I love you, not because
I hope for heav'n thereby;
nor yet because if I love not,
I must forever die;
2 But, O my Jesus, you did me
upon the cross embrace;
for me you bore the nails and spear
and manifold disgrace.
3 Then why, O blessed Jesus Christ,
should I not love you well;
not for the sake of winning heav'n,
or of escaping hell?
4 E'en so I love you and will love,
and in your praise will sing,
solely because you are my God
and my eternal King. Scripture: 1 John 4:7-21 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. JAMES
My God, I Love You, Not Because

For Thee all the follies of sin I resign;
My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou;
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
2 I love Thee, because Thou hast first loved me,
And purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree;
I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow:
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
3 I'll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death,
And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath;
And say when the death-dew lies cold on my brow,
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
4 In mansions of glory and endless delight,
I'll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright;
I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow,
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. Languages: English Tune Title: GORDON

There Is No Name So Sweet on Earth
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #178 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Love For Christ of God Refrain First Line: We love to sing around our King Lyrics: 1 There is no name so sweet on earth,
no name so sweet in heaven,
the name before his wondrous birth
to Christ the Savior given.
Refrain:
We love to sing around our King,
and hail him blessed Jesus;
for there's no word ear ever heard
so dear, so sweet as "Jesus."
2 And when he hung upon the tree,
they wrote this name above him;
that all might see the reason we
forevermore must love him. [Refrain]
3 So now, upon his Father's throne,
almighty to release us
from sin and pains, he gladly reigns,
the Prince and Savior Jesus. [Refrain]
4 To Jesus ev'ry knee shall bow,
and ev'ry tongue confess him,
and we unite with saints in light,
our only Lord to bless him. [Refrain]
5 O Jesus, by that matchless name,
your grace shall fail us never;
today as yesterday the same,
you art the same forever. [Refrain]

By the cross of Jesus standing
Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #185 (1961) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Love For Christ or God Lyrics: 1 By the cross of Jesus standing,
Love our straitened souls expanding,
Taste we now the peace and grace!
Health from yonder tree is flowing,
Heav'nly light is on it glowing,
From the blessed Suff'rer's face.
2 Here is pardon's pledge and token,
Guilt's strong chain for ever broken,
Righteous peace securely made;
Brightens now the brow once shaded,
Freshens now the face once faded,
Peace with God now makes us glad.
3 All the love of God is yonder,
Love above all thought and wonder,
Perfect love that casts out fear!
Strength, like dew, is here distilling,
Glorious life our souls is filling,
Life eternal, only here!
4 Here the living water welleth;
Here the Rock, now smitten, telleth
Of salvation freely giv'n:
This the fount of love and pity,
This the pathway to the city,
This the very gate of heav'n.
Amen. Scripture: Colossians 1:20 Languages: English Tune Title: STABAT MATER

One There Is, above All Others
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #186 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Love For Christ of God Lyrics: 1 One there is, above all others,
well deserves the name of Friend;
his is love beyond a brother's,
costly, free, and knows no end.
They who once his kindness prove
find it everlasting love.
2 Which of all our friends, to save us,
could or would have shed his blood?
But our Jesus died to have us
reconciled in him to God.
This was boundless love indeed;
Jesus is a Friend in need.
3 When he lived on earth abased,
"Friend of sinners" was his name;
Now above all glory raised,
he rejoices in the same;
still he calls them brethren, friends,
and to all their wants attends.
4 Could we bear from one another
what he daily bears from us?
Yet this glorious Friend and Brother
loves us though we treat him thus:
though for good we render ill,
he accounts us brethren still.
5 O for grace our hearts to soften!
Teach us, Lord, at length to love,
we, alas! forget too often
what a Friend we have above:
but when home our souls are brought,
we will love you as we ought.
Scripture: Proverbs 18:24 Languages: English Tune Title: GODESBERG
One There Is, above All Others
O Sacred Head, Now Wounded
Author: Bernard of Clairvaux, 12th C.; James W. Alexander Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #202 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Love: For Christ Lyrics: 1 O sacred head, now wounded,
with grief and shame weighed down,
now scornfully surrounded
with thorns, thine only crown:
how pale thou art with anguish,
with sore abuse and scorn!
How does that visage languish
which once was bright as morn!
2 What thou, O Christ, hast suffered
was all for sinners’ gain;
mine, mine was the transgression,
but thine the deadly pain.
Lo, here I fall, my Savior!
’Tis I deserve thy place;
look on me with thy favor,
and keep me in thy grace.
3 What language shall I borrow
to thank thee, dearest Friend,
for this thy dying sorrow,
thy pity without end?
O make me thine forever;
and should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
outlive my love to thee. Languages: English Tune Title: PASSION CHORALE
