Rejoice, all ye believers
Meter: 7.6 Appears in 334 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers,
And let your lights appear!
The evening is advancing,
And darker night is near.
The Bridegroom is arising,
And soon He draweth nigh;
Up, pray, and watch, and wrestle!
At midnight comes the cry.
2 The watchers on the mountain
Proclaim the Bridegroom near;
Go meet Him as He cometh,
With hallelujahs clear.
The marriage-feast is waiting,
The gates wide open stand;
Up, up, ye heirs of glory!
The Bridegroom is at hand.
3 Ye saints, who here in patience
Your cross and sufferings bore,
Shall live and reign forever,
When sorrow is no more.
Around the throne of glory,
The Lamb ye shall behold,
In triumph cast before Him
Your diadems of gold.
4 Our Hope and Expectation,
O Jesus, now appear;
Arise, Thou Sun so longed for,
O'er this benighted sphere!
With hearts and hands uplifted,
We plead, O Lord, to see
The day of earth’s redemption,
That brings us unto Thee. Topics: Christ Second Advent of; Christ Bridegroom; Heavenly-Mindedness; Hope; Christian Joy; The Judgment Used With Tune: PRAISE
Rejoice, all ye believers
Come, let us sing of Jesus
Meter: 7.6 Appears in 124 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, let us sing of Jesus,
While hearts and accents blend;
Come, let us sing of Jesus,
The sinners’ only friend;
His holy soul rejoices
Amid the choirs above,
To hear our youthful voices
Exulting in His love.
2 We love to sing of Jesus,
Who wept our path along;
We love to sing of Jesus,
The tempted and the strong;
None who besought His healing,
He passed unheeded by,
And still retains His feeling
For us above the sky.
3 We love to sing of Jesus,
Who died our souls to save;
We love to sing of Jesus,
Triumphant o’er the grave;
And in the hour of danger
We’ll trust His love alone,
Who once slept in a manger,
And now sits on the throne.
4 Then let us sing of Jesus,
While yet on earth we stay,
And hope to sing of Jesus
Throughout eternal day;
For those who here confess Him,
He will in heaven confess,
And faithful hearts that bless Him
He will forever bless. Used With Tune: PRAISE
Come, let us sing of Jesus
Let me be Thine for ever
Author: Matthias Loy; Nicolaus Selnecker Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 55 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let me be Thine for ever,
My gracious God and Lord;
May I forsake Thee never,
Nor wander from Thy Word.
Preserve me from the mazes
Of error and distrust,
And I shall sing Thy praises
For ever with the just.
2 Lord Jesus! bounteous Giver
Of light and life divine,
Thou didst my soul deliver;
To Thee I all resign.
Thou hast in mercy bought me,
With blood and bitter pain;
Let me, since Thou hast sought me,
Eternal life obtain.
3 O Holy Ghost, Who pourest
Sweet peace into my heart,
And all my soul restorest,
Let not Thy grace depart,
And while His name confessing,
Whom I by faith have known,
Grant me Thy constant blessing;
Make me for aye Thine own.
Amen. Used With Tune: JEG VIL MIG HERREN LOVE

Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Meter: 7.6 Appears in 842 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
Great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
His reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
To set the captive free,
To take away transgression,
And rule in equity.
2 He comes with succor speedy
To those who suffer wrong;
To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong;
To give them songs for sighing,
Their darkness turn to light,
Whose souls, condemned and dying,
Were precious in His sight.
3 He shall descend like showers
Upon the fruitful earth,
And love, and joy, like flowers,
Spring in His path to birth;
Before Him, on the mountains,
Shall peace, the herald, go;
And righteousness, in fountains,
From hill to valley flow.
4 To Him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend,
His kingdom still increasing--
A kingdom without end.
The tide of time shall never
His covenant remove;
His name shall stand forever,--
That name to us is Love. Topics: TheChurch Year Advent; Christ Defender and Helper; Christ King Used With Tune: PRAISE

I lay my sins on Jesus
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 7.6 Appears in 558 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I lay my sins on Jesus,
The spotless Lamb of God;
He bears them all, and frees us
From the accurséd load.
I bring my guilt to Jesus,
To wash my crimson stains
White, in His Blood most precious,
Till not a spot remains.
2 I lay my wants on Jesus;
All fullness dwells in Him;
He heals all my diseases,
He doth my soul redeem.
I lay my griefs on Jesus,
My burdens and my cares;
He from them all releases,
He all my sorrows shares.
3 I long to be like Jesus,
Meek, loving, lowly, mild;
I long to be like Jesus,
The Father's holy Child;
I long to be with Jesus,
Amid the heavenly throng,
To sing with saints His praises,
To learn the angels' song.

Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians
Meter: 7.6 Appears in 29 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians,
With all your hearts, this morn!
O hear the blessed tidings,
"The Lord, the Christ, is born!"
Now brought us by the angels
That stand about God's throne:
O lovely are the voices
That make such tidings known!
2 O hearken to their singing!
This Child shall be your friend;
The Father so hath willed it,
That thus your woes should end.
The Son is freely given,
That in Him ye may have
The Father's grace and blessing,
And know He loves to save.
3 Nor deem the form too lowly
That clothes Him at this hour;
For know ye what it hideth?
'Tis God's almighty power!
Though now within the manger
So poor and weak He lies,
He is the Lord of all things,
He reigns above the skies.
4 Sin, death, and hell, and Satan
Have lost the victory;
This Child shall overthrow them,
As ye shall surely see.
Their wrath shall nought avail them;
Fear not, their reign is o'er;
This Child shall overthrow them,--
O hear, and doubt no more. Topics: TheChurch Year Christmas; Christ Humiliation of; Christian Joy Used With Tune: PRAISE
