Jesus reigns, and heav'n rejoices; Jesus reigns, the God of love; See, He sits on yonder throne; Jesus rules the world alone. Hallelujah! hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen! 2 Jesus, hail! whose glory brightens All above, and gives it worth; Lord of life, Thy smile enlightens, Cheers, and charms Thy saints on earth: When we think of love like Thine, Lord, we own it love divine. Hallelujah! hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen! 3 Saviour, hasten Thine appearing; Bring, oh, bring the glorious day, When, the awful summons hearing, Heav'n and earth shall pass away; Then with golden harps we'll sing, "Glory, glory,to our King!"

Come to Jesus

Author: Frederick W. Faber Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 41 hymnals First Line: Was there ever kindest shepherd Lyrics: 1 Was there ever kindest shepherd Half so gentle, half so sweet, As the Saviour who would have us Come and gather round His feet? It is God; His love looks mighty, But is mightier than it seems: 'Tis our Father, and His kindness Goes out far beyond our dreams. 2 There's a wideness in God's mercy, Like the wideness of the sea; There's a kindness in His justice, Which is more that liberty. There is welcome for the sinner, And more graces for the good; There is mercy with the Saviour, There is healing in His blood: 3 For the love of God is broader Than the measures of man's mind, And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind: But we make His love too narrow By false limits of our own, And we magnify His strictness With a zeal He will not own. 4 There is plentiful redemption In the blood that has been shed; There is joy for all the members In the sorrows of the Head. If our love were but more simple, We should take Him at His word; And our lives would be all sunshine In the sweetness of our Lord. Amen. The Hymnal: Published by the authority of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A., 1895

God is love: let heaven adore him

Author: Timothy Rees, 1874-1939 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God is love: let heaven adore him; God is love: let earth rejoice; let creation sing before him, and exalt him with one voice. He who laid the earth's foundation, he who spread the heavens above, he who breathes through all creation, he is love, eternal love. 2 God is love: and he enfoldeth all the world in one embrace; with unfailing grasp he holdeth every child of every race. And when human hearts are breaking under sorrow's iron rod, then they find that selfsame aching deep within the heart of God. 3 God is love: and though with blindness sin afflicts the souls of men, God's eternal loving-kindness holds and guides them even then. Sin and death and hell shall never o'er us final triumph gain; God is love, so love for ever o'er the universe must reign. Topics: General Hymns God the Father Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL
