There Is a Green Hill Far Away
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander (1818-1895) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #202 (1998) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Hebrews 1:1-4 Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away,
outside a city wall,
where the dear Lord was crucified
who died to save us all.
2 We may not know, we cannot tell,
what pains he had to bear;
but we believe it was for us
he hung and suffered there.
3 He died that we might be forgiven,
he died to make us good,
that we might go at last to heaven,
saved by his precious blood.
4 There was no other good enough
to pay the price of sin;
he only could unlock the gate
of heaven and let us in.
5 O dearly, dearly has he loved,
and we must love him too,
and trust in his redeeming blood,
and try his works to do. Topics: Holy Week (Good Friday) Languages: English Tune Title: HORSLEY

And heav'n's eternal Light;.

The joy of all below,

And grants His name to know.

Tho' shame and death to Him:
His people's hope, His people's wealth,
Their everlasting theme.

who reigns enthroned above,
the Ancient of Eternal Days,
the God of love!
The Lord, the great I AM,
by earth and heaven confessed,
we bow before your holy name,
forever blest.
2 Your spirit still flows free,
high surging where it will.
In prophet's word you spoke of old
and you speak still.
Established is your law,
and changeless it shall stand,
deep writ upon the human heart
by your strong hand.
3 Your goodly land we seek,
with peace and plenty blest,
a land of sacred liberty
and Sabbath rest.
There milk and honey flow,
and oil and wine abound,
and trees of life forever grow
with mercy crowned.
4 You have eternal life
implanted in the soul;
your love shall be our strength and stay,
while ages roll.
We praise you, living God!
We praise your holy name:
the first, the last, beyond all thought,
and still the same!

To the Name of Our Salvation
Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #377 (1998) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Scripture: Hebrews 1:1-4 Lyrics: 1 To the Name of our salvation
laud and honour let us pay,
which for many a generation
hid in God's foreknowledge lay;
but with holy exultation
we may sing aloud today.
2 Jesus is the name we treasure,
name beyond what words can tell;
name of gladness, name of pleasure,
ear and heart delighting well;
name of sweetness passing measure,
saving us from sin and hell.
3 'Tis the name that whoso preaches
speaks like music to the ear;
who in prayer this name beseeches
finds its comfort ever near;
who its perfect wisdom reaches,
heavenly joy possesses here.
4 Jesus is the name exalted
over every other name;
in this name, whene'er assaulted,
we can put our foes to shame:
strength to them who else had halted,
eyes to blind and feet to lame.
5 Therefore we in love adoring,
this most blessed name revere,
holy Jesus, thee imploring
so to write it in us here
that, hereafter heavenward soaring,
we may sing with angels there.

The Splendor of God's Glory Bright
Author: Ambrose of Milan Hymnal: Great Songs of the Church (Revised) #158 (1986) Scripture: Hebrews 1:3 First Line: O splendor of God's glory bright Lyrics: 1 O Splendor of God's glory bright,
Who bringest forth the light from Light;
O Light of Light, the fountain spring;
O Day, our days illumining.
2 Come, very Sun of truth and love;
Come in Thy radiance from above,
And shed the Holy Spirit's ray
On all we think or do or say.
3 Teach us to work with all our might;
Put Satan's fierce assaults to flight;
Turn all to good that seems most ill;
Help us our calling to fulfill.
4 All praised to God the Father be;
All praise, beloved Son, to Thee;
Whom with the Spirit we adore,
For ever and for ever more.
