Faith is a living power from heaven

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 74 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Faith is a living power from heaven, That grasps the promise God hath given, A confidence in Christ alone, Whose grace can not be overthrown. 2 Faith in the conscience worketh peace, And bids the mourner’s weeping cease; By faith the children’s place we claim, And give all honor to One Name. 3 Faith feels the Spirit’s kindling breath In love and hope that conquer death; Faith worketh joyfulness in God, And trust that blesses e’en the rod. 4 We thank Thee then, O God of heaven, That Thou to us this faith hast given; Preserve to us Thy Spirit's grace Till we shall see Thee face to face.

Almighty God! Thy Word is cast

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 222 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Almighty God! Thy Word is cast Like seed upon the ground; Now let the dew of Heaven descend, And righteous fruits abound, And righteous fruits abound. 2 Let not the foe of Christ and man This holy seed remove; But give it root in every heart, To bring forth fruits of love, To bring forth fruits of love. 3 Let not the world's deceitful cares The rising plant destroy; But let it yield a hundred fold The fruits of peace and joy, The fruits of peace and joy. 4 Oft as the precious seed is sown, Thy quickening grace bestow, That all whose souls the truth receive Its saving power may know, Its saving power may know.

Rescue the perishing, care for the dying

Meter: 11.10 Appears in 785 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Rescue the perishing, care for the dying, Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave; Weep o’er the erring ones, lift up the fallen, Tell them of Jesus, the mighty to save. Though they are slighting Him, still He is waiting, Waiting the penitent child to receive; Plead with them earnestly, plead with them gently: He will forgive, if they only believe. 2 Down in the human heart, crushed by the tempter, Hope that lies buried, God's grace can restore: Touched by a loving heart, wakened by kindness, Chords that were broken will vibrate once more. Rescue the perishing, duty demands it; Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide. Back to the narrow way patiently win them, Tell the poor wanderer a Saviour has died.

Blest is the man, forever blest

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 103 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blest is the man, forever blest, Whose guilt is pardoned by his God, Whose sins with sorrow are confessed, And covered with his Saviour's blood. 2 Blest is the man to whom the Lord Imputes not his iniquities, He pleads no merit of reward, And not on works, but grace relies. 3 From guile his heart and lips are free, His humble joy, his holy fear, With deep repentance well agree, And join to prove his faith sincere. 4 How glorious is that righteousness That hides and cancels all his sins! While a bright the evidence of grace Through his whole life appears and shines. Topics: Blessedness of Believers; Forgiveness of Sin; Justification Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

There's a Friend for little children

Meter: 7.6 Appears in 247 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There’s a Friend for little children Above the bright blue sky, A Friend who never changeth, Whose love will never die; Unlike our friends by nature, Who change with changing years, This Friend is always worthy The precious name He bears. 2 There’s a rest for little children, Above the bright blue sky, For those who love the Saviour, And Abba, Father, cry, A rest from every turmoil, From sin and danger free, Where every little pilgrim Shall rest eternally. 3 There’s a home for little children Above the bright blue sky, Where Jesus reigns in glory,-- A home of peace and joy; No home on earth is like it, Nor can with it compare, For every one is happy, Nor could be happier, there. 4 There’s a crown for little children Above the bright blue sky, And all who look to Jesus Shall wear it by and by; A crown of brightest glory, Which He will then bestow On all who found His favor And loved His name below. 5 There’s a song for little children Above the bright blue sky, A song that will not weary, Though sung continually; A song which even angels Can never, never sing; They know not Christ as Saviour, But worship Him as King. 6 There's a robe for little children Above the bright blue sky, And a harp of sweetest music, And a palm of victory. All, all above is treasured, And found in Christ alone; O come, dear little children, That all may be your own. Topics: Christ Friend of Children; Heaven Used With Tune: PRAISE

O Word of God incarnate

Meter: 7.6 Appears in 487 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Word of God incarnate, O Wisdom from on high, O Truth unchanged, unchanging, O Light of our dark sky! We praise thee for the radiance That from the hallowed page, A lamp unto our footsteps, Shines on from age to age. 2 The Church from her dear Master Received the gift divine, And still that light she lifteth O'er all the earth to shine. It is the golden casket Where gems of truth are stored; It is the heaven-drawn picture Of Christ, the living Word. 3 It floateth like a banner Before God's host unfurled; It shineth like a beacon Above the darkling world; It is the chart and compass That o'er life's surging sea, 'Mid mists and rocks and quicksands, Still guides, O Christ, to Thee. 4 O make Thy Church, dear Saviour, A lamp of burnished gold, To bear before the nations Thy true light as of old; O teach Thy wandering pilgrims By this their path to trace, Till, clouds and darkness ended, They see Thee face to face. Used With Tune: TO THEE, O GOD, I CRY
