O for a thousand tongues to sing

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #217 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing My great Redeemer's praise! The glories of my God and King, The triumphs of His grace! 2 My gracious Master and my God, Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad The honors of Thy name. 3 Jesus, the Name that charms our fears, That bids our sorrows cease; 'Tis music in the sinner's ears, 'Tis life, and health, and peace. 4 He breaks the power of cancelled sin, He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean; His Blood availed for me. 5 Look unto Him, ye nations; own Your God, ye fallen race; Look, and be saved through faith alone, Be justified by grace. 6 See all your sins on Jesus laid; The Lamb of God was slain: His soul was once an offering made For every soul of man. 7 Glory to God, and praise, and love, Be ever, ever given; By saints below and saints above, The Church in earth and heaven.

Let earth and heaven combine

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #218 (1890) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Let earth and heaven combine, Angels and men agree, To praise in songs divine The incarnate Deity: To adore the all-atoning Lamb, And bless the sound of Jesus' Name. 2 Jesus! transporting sound! The joy of earth and heaven; No other help is found, No other name is given, By which we can salvation have; But Jesus came the world to save. 3 For me and all mankind The Lamb of God was slain: My Lord His life resigned For every soul of man: Loving to all, He none passed by, He would not have one sinner die. 4 O unexampled Love! O all-redeeming grace! How swiftly didst Thou move To save a fallen race! What shall I do to make it known, What Thou for all mankind hast done? Languages: English Tune Title: CROFT'S 148TH PSALM

Join all the glorious names

Author: Watts Hymnal: Church Book #219 (1890) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names Of wisdom, love, and power, That ever mortals knew, That angels ever bore: All are too mean to speak His worth, Too mean to set my Saviour forth. 2 But O, what gentle terms, What condescending ways, Doth our Redeemer use, To teach His heavenly grace! Mine eyes with joy and wonder see What forms of love He bears for me. 3 Arrayed in mortal flesh, He like an angel stands; And holds the promises And pardons in His hands: Commissioned from His Father's throne, To make His grace to mortals known. 4 Great Prophet of my God, My tongue would bless Thy Name; Be Thee the joyful news Of our salvation came; The joyful news of sins forgiven, Of hell subdued, and peace with heaven. 5 Be Thou my Counsellor, My Pattern and my Guide; And through this desert land Still keep me near Thy side; O let my feet ne'er run astray, Nor rove, nor seek the crooked way!

One there is above all others

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Church Book #220 (1890) Meter: 8.7.7 Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity 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 this Saviour 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 abaséd, Friend of sinners was His name, Now, above all glory raiséd, He rejoices in the same: Still He calls them brethren, friends, And to all their wants attends. 4 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 Thee as we ought.

To those who fall, how kind Thou art, How good to those who seek! 4 But what to those who find? ah, this Nor tongue nor pen can show; The Love of Jesus, what it is, None but His loved ones know. 5 Jesus, our only Joy be Thou! As Thou our Prize wilt be; Jesus, be Thou our Glory now, And through eternity! Languages: English Tune Title: REDHEAD, 66

Thou Fount of life and fire! Surpassing all the joys we know, All that we can desire,-- 4 May every heart confess Thy Name, And ever Thee adore; And, seeking Thee, itself inflame To seek Thee ore and more. 5 Thee may our tongues forever bless; Thee may we love alone; And ever in our lives express The image of Thine own.

Lord, and whither shall we go?

Author: Robert Montgomery Hymnal: Church Book #226 (1890) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Lord, and whither shall we go? Thou alone hast words of life! In our stormy griefs below, Who, but Thou, can heal the strife Sin and sorrow round us being, In life's vale while wandering? 2 Blessed Christ! embodied Word! Thou alone art Life and Light: Saints who have Thy truth preferred Walk in peace, and worship right: Thou alone to sin canst say, "I am Love, the Living Way." 3 Sun of Grace, O ever shine Round our paths, where'er they lead! Midnight feels a ray divine Breaking through the darkest need, If we hear, when most dismayed, "It is I, be not afraid!" 4 Pardon, peace, and purity, Gifts without, and grace within, Love and light which set us free From the curse and chain of sin-- These, Emmanuel, Thou canst give, While upon Thy words we live. 5 Not a want, Thou canst not fill; Not a fear, Thou wilt not tame; If, indeed, repentance will Rest upon Thy glorious Name, High o'er every guilt and grave Shall Redemption's banner wave! 6 Saviour, be our Polar Star, Shaded by no sinful night; Shed upon us from afar Living beams of holy light: When we reach our radiant home, We shall know the Way we come.

Jesus, Lover of my soul

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #231 (1890) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high! Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide; O receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none; Hangs my helpless soul on Thee: Leave, ah, leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me! All my trust on Thee is stayed, All my help from Thee I bring: Cover my defenseless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; More than all in Thee I find: Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is Thy Name; I am all unrighteousness: False and full of sin I am; thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin; Let the healing streams abound; Make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the Fountain art, Freely let me take of thee; Spring Thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. EDMUND

'Tis not by works of righteousness

And, justified by grace, We shall appear in glory too, And see our Father's face. Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE
