Praise to the Holiest in the height
Author: John Henry Newman Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 170 hymnals Lyrics:
Praise to the Holiest in the height,
And in the depth be praise;
In all his words most wonderful,
Most sure in all his ways!
O loving wisdom of our God!
When all was sin and shame,
A second Adam to the fight
And to the rescue came.
O wisest love! that flesh and blood,
Which did in Adam fail,
Should strive afresh against the foe,
Should strive and should prevail:
And that a higher gift than grace
Should flesh and blood refine;
God's Presence and his very Self,
And Essence all-divine.
O generous love! that he who smote
In Man for man the foe,
The double agony in Man
For man should undergo;
And in the garden secretly,
And on the cross on high,
Should teach his brethren, and inspire
To suffer and to die.
Praise to the Holiest in the height,
And in the depth be praise;
In all his words most wonderful,
Most sure in all his ways.

Praise to the Holiest in the height
My God, I Know, I Feel Thee Mine
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 118 hymnals First Line: My God! I know, I feel Thee mine Lyrics: 1. My God! I know, I feel Thee mine,
And will not quit my claim,
Till all I have is lost in Thine,
And all renewed I am.
2. I hold Thee with a trembling hand,
But will not let Thee go,
Till steadfastly by faith I stand,
And all Thy goodness know.
3. When shall I see the welcome hour,
That plants my God in me!
Spirit of health, and life, and power,
And perfect liberty!
4. Jesus, Thine all victorious love
Shed in my heart abroad;
Then shall my feet no longer rove,
Rooted and fixed in God.
5. Love only can the conquest win,
The strength of sin subdue,
(My own unconquerable sin)
And form my soul anew.
6. Love can bow down the stubborn neck,
The stone to flesh convert,
Soften, and melt, and pierce, and break
An adamantine heart.
7. O that in me the sacred fire
Might now begin to glow,
Burn up the dross of base desire,
And make the mountains flow!
8. O that it now from heaven might fall,
And all my sins consume!
Come, Holy Ghost, for Thee I call,
Spirit of burning, come!
9. Refining fire, go through my heart,
Illuminate my soul;
Scatter Thy life through every part,
And sanctify the whole.
10. No longer then my heart shall mourn,
While, purified by grace,
I only for His glory burn,
And always see His face.
11. My steadfast soul, from falling free,
Shall then no longer move;
But Christ be all the world to me,
And all my heart be love. Used With Tune: GERONTIUS Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1740

All praise to our redeeming Lord
Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 142 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All praise to our redeeming Lord
Who joins us by His grace,
And bids us, each to each restored,
Together seek His face.
2 He bids us build each other up;
And, gathered into one,
To our high calling's glorious hope
We hand in hand go on.
3 The gift which He on one bestows,
We all delight to prove;
The grace through every vessel flows,
In purest streams of love.
4 And if our fellowship below
In Jesus be so sweet,
What heights of rapture shall we know,
When round His throne we meet! Topics: Joy Unspeakable; Joy Unspeakable; Saints Fellowship of; Calling, the Christians ; Christian Triumph; Christian Unity; Communion Of Saints; The Christian Life Fellowship; Unity, Christian ; Soldiers of Christ; Saints Unity of Used With Tune: GERONTIUS

I am not worthy, holy Lord
Author: H. W. Baker Appears in 75 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I am not worthy, holy Lord,
That Thou shouldst come to me;
Speak but the word: one gracious word
Can set the sinner free.
2 I am not worthy; cold and bare
The lodging of my soul;
How canst Thou deign to enter there?
Lord, speak, and make me whole.
3 I am not worthy; yet, my God,
How can I say Thee nay;
Thee, Who didst give Thy Flesh and Blood
My ransom-price to pay?
4 O come! in this sweet morning hour
Feed me with food divine;
And fill with all Thy love and power
This worthless heart of mine. Topics: The Church Holy Communion Used With Tune: GERONTIUS
