Christ Is Made the Sure Foundation

Author: John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 288 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:4-10 Lyrics: 1. Christ is made the sure foundation, Christ the head and cornerstone, chosen of the Lord and precious, binding all the church in one; Holy Zion's help forever, and her confidence alone. 2. To this temple, where we call you, come, O Lord of Hosts and stay; With all your loving-kindness hear you people as they pray, and your fullest benediction shed within its walls today. 3. Grant, we pray, to all your faithful all the gifts they ask to gain; what they gain from you forever with the blessed to retain, and hereafter in your glory evermore with thee to reign. 4. Praise and honor to the Father, praise and honor to the Son, praise and honor to the Spirit, ever three and ever one; one in might and one in glory, while unending ages run!

How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1,615 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:7 Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds in a believer's ear! It soothes my sorrows, heals my wounds, and drives away my fear. It makes the wounded spirit whole, and calms the troubled breast; it satisfies the hungry soul, and gives the weary rest. 2 Dear name, the rock on which I build, my shield and hiding-place, my never-failing treasury, filled with boundless stores of grace, Jesus, my Shepherd, Brother, Friend, my Prophet, Priest, and King, my Lord, my life, my way, my end-- accept the praise I bring. 3 Weak is the effort of my heart and cold my warmest thought; but when I see you as you are, I'll praise you as I ought. Till then I would your love proclaim with every fleeting breath; and may the music of your name refresh my soul in death. Topics: Jesus Christ Physician Used With Tune: RACHEL

Church of God, Elect and Glorious

Author: James E Seddon Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 21 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:9-12 Lyrics: 1 Church of God, elect and glorious, holy nation, chosen race, called as God's own special people, royal priests and heirs of grace: know the purpose of your calling, show to all his mighty deeds; tell of love that knows no limits, grace that meets all human needs. 2 God has called you out of darkness into his most marvelous light, brought his truth to life within you, turned your blindness into sight. Let your light so shine around you that God's name is glorified, and all find fresh hope and purpose in Christ Jesus crucified. 3 Once you were an alien people, strangers to God's heart of love, but he brought you home in mercy, citizens of heaven above. Let his love flow out to others, let them feel the Father's care, that they too may know his welcome and his countless blessings share. 4 Church of God, elect and holy, be the people he intends, strong in faith and swift to answer each command your Master sends; royal priests, fulfill your calling through your sacrifice and prayer, give your lives in joyful service, sing his praise, his love declare.

Christ is All

Appears in 113 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:7 First Line: I entered once a home of care Refrain First Line: Christ is all, all in all Lyrics: 1 I entered once a home of care, For age and penury were there, Yet peace and joy withal; I asked the lonely mother whence Her helpless widowhood’s defense, She told me, "Christ was all." Chorus: Christ is all, all in all, Yes, Christ is all in all; Christ is all, all in all, Yes, Christ is all in all. 2 I stood beside a dying bed, Where lay a child with aching head, Waiting for Jesus' call; I marked his smile, 'twas sweet as May, And as his spirit passed away, He whispered, "Christ is all." [Chorus] 3 I saw the martyr at the stake, The flames could not his courage shake Nor death his soul appal, I asked him whence his strength was given, He look triumphantly to heaven, And answered, "Christ is all." [Chorus] 4 I saw the gospel herald go,-- To Afric's sand and Greenland's snow, To save from Satan's thrall, Nor home, nor life he counted dear, 'Midst wants and perils owned no fear, He felt that "Christ was all." [Chorus] 5 I dreamt that hoary time had fled, And earth and sea resigned their dead, A fire dissolved this ball: I saw the Church’s glorious throng; I heard the burden of their song,— 'Twas Christ is all in all! [Chorus] 6 Then come to Christ, oh, come to-day, The Father, Son, and Spirit say; The Bride repeats the call, For he will cleanse your guilty stains, His love will soothe your weary pains, For "Christ is all in all." [Chorus] Used With Tune: [I entered once a home of care]

Built on the Rock

Author: Nikolai F. S. Grundtvig; Carl Döving Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 73 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:5 First Line: Built on the Rock, the church shall stand Lyrics: 1 Built on the Rock, the church shall stand even when steeples are falling; Christ builds his church in every land; bells still are chiming and calling, calling the young and old to rest, calling the souls of those distressed, longing for life everlasting. 2 Not in a temple made with hands God the Almighty is dwelling; high in the heavens his temple stands, all earthly temples excelling. Yet he who dwells in heaven above chooses to live with us in love, making our bodies his temple. 3 We are God's house of living stones, built for his own habitation; he fills our hearts, his humble thrones, granting us life and salvation. Yet to this place, an earthly frame, we come with thanks to praise his name; God grants his people true blessing.

Jesus - precious to them that believe

Author: Dr. Doddridge Appears in 545 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:7 First Line: Jesus, I love thy charming name Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I love thy charming name, 'Tis music to my ear; Fain would I sound it out so loud That earth and Heaven might hear. 2 Yes thou art precious to my soul, My transport and my trust, Jewels to thee are gaudy toys, And gold is sordid dust. 3 All my capacious powers can wish In thee doth richly meet; Not to my eyes is light so dear, Nor friendship half so sweet. 4 Thy grace shall dwell upon my heart, And shed its fragrance there; The noblest balm of all its wounds, The cordial of its care. 5 I'll speak the honors of thy name, With my last laboring breath; And dying, clasp thee in my arms, The antidote of death.

God Is Here! As We His People

Author: Fred Pratt Green, b. 1903 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 47 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:9-10 Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we his people, Meet to offer praise and prayer, May we find in fuller measure What it is in Christ we share: Here, as in the world around us, All our varied skills and arts Wait the coming of his Spirit Into open minds and hearts. 2 Here are symbols to remind us Of our lifelong need of grace; Here are table, font, and pulpit; Here the cross has central place. Here in honesty of preaching, Here in silence, as in speech, Here in newness and renewal God the Spirit comes to each. 3 Here our children find a welcome In the Shepherd's flock and fold, Here, as bread and wine are taken, Christ sustains us as of old; Here the servants of the Servant Seek in worship to explore What it means in daily living To believe and to adore. 4 Lord of all, of church and kingdom, In an age of change and doubt, Keep us faithful to the gospel, Help us work your purpose out: Here, in this day's dedication, All we have to give, receive; We who cannot live without you, We adore you! We believe! Used With Tune: ABBOT'S LEIGH
