O God, Our Help in Ages Past
How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,621 hymnals First Line: How sweet the name of Jesus sounds In a believer's ear Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
in a believer's ear!
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds,
and drives away our fear.
2 It makes the wounded spirit whole
and calms the troubled breast;
'tis manna to the hungry soul,
and to the weary, rest.
3 O Jesus, shepherd, guardian, friend,
my Prophet, Priest, and King,
my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End,
accept the praise I bring.
4 How weak the effort of my heart,
how cold my warmest thought;
but when I see you as you are,
I'll praise you as I ought.
5 Till then I would your love proclaim
with every fleeting breath;
and may the music of your name
refresh my soul in death.

How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds
Oh! thou, whose tender mercy hears
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 361 hymnals Lyrics:
1.
Oh! thou, whose tender mercy hears
Contrition's humble sigh;
Whose hand indulgent wipes the tears
From sorrow's weeping eye.
2.
See, low before thy throne of grace,
A wretched wanderer mourn;
Hast thou not bid me seek thy face?
Hast thou not said—return?
3.
And shall my guilty fears prevail
To drive me from thy feet?
Oh! let not this dear refuge fail,
This only safe retreat.
4.
Absent from thee, my Guide, my Light,
Without one cheering ray;
Through dangers, fears and gloomy night,
How desolate my way!
5.
Oh! shine on this benighted heart,
With beams of mercy shine!
And let thy healing voice impart
A taste of joys divine.
Used With Tune: THE PENITENT'S PRAYER
Oh! thou, whose tender mercy hears
All that I was, my sin, my guilt
Author: H. Bonar Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 120 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All that I was, my sin, my guilt,
My death, was all my own;
All that I am, I owe to Thee,
My gracious God, alone.
2 The evil of my former state
Was mine, and only mine;
The good in which I now rejoice
Is Thine, and only Thine.
3 The darkness of my former state,
The bondage, all was mine;
The light of life in which I walk,
The liberty, is Thine.
4 Thy grace first made me feel my sin,
It taught me to believe;
Then in believing, peace I found,
And now I live, I live.
5 All that I am, e'en here on earth,
All that I hope to be
When Jesus comes and glory dawns,
I owe it, Lord, to Thee. Topics: The Church Year Eleventh Sunday after Trinity; The Church Year Eleventh Sunday after Trinity; Grace Used With Tune: [All that I was, my sin, my guilt]

And make it always Thine,

Behold I prostrate fall;
Let every sin be crucified,
Let Christ be all in all!
3 Anoint me with Thy Spirit's grace,
Adopt me for Thine own,
That I may see Thy glorious face,
And worship at Thy throne!
4 May the dear blood once shed for me
My blest atonement prove,
That I from first to last may be
The purchase of Thy love!
5 Let every thought, and work, and word,
To Thee be ever given;
Then life shall be Thy service, Lord,
And death the gate of heaven! Topics: The Church Confirmation; The Church Confirmation; Children's Services; Consecration Used With Tune: [My God, accept my heart this day]

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,996 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross
on which the Prince of Glory died,
my richest gain I count but loss,
and pour contempt on all my pride.
2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
save in the death of Christ, my God;
all the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to his blood.
3 See, from his head, his hands, his feet,
sorrow and love flow mingled down,
Did e’er such love and sorrow meet,
or thorns compose so rich a crown?
4 Were the whole realm of nature mine,
that were an offering far too small;
love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all. Topics: Christ's Passion Scripture: Galatians 6:14 Used With Tune: HAMBURG

On this terrestrial ball,
To Him all majesty ascribe,
And crown Him, crown Him, crown Him,

We at His feet may fall!
We'll join the everlasting song,
And crown Him, crown Him, crown Him,
crown Him Lord of all. Scripture: Revelation 5:13 Used With Tune: MILES LANE

We Walk By Faith
Alas! And Did My Saviour Bleed
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2,304 hymnals First Line: Alas! And did my Savior bleed Lyrics: 1 Alas! And did my Savior bleed,
And did my Sovereign die!
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I!
2 Was it for crimes that I had done
He suffered on the tree?
Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!
3 Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut its glories in,
When Christ, the great Redeemer, died
For human creatures' sin.
4 But drops of grief can ne’er repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord, I give my self away;
’Tis all that I can do.
Scripture: Isaiah 53:3-5 Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM
Alas! And Did My Saviour Bleed
My Shepherd Will Supply My Need
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 234 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My Shepherd, you supply my need,
most holy is your name;
in pastures fresh you make me feed,
beside the living stream.
You bring my wand'ring spirit back.
when I forsake your ways;
you lead me, for your mercy's sake,
in paths of truth and grace.
2 When through the shades of death I walk,
your presence is my stay;
one word of your supporting breath
drives all my fears away.
Your hand in sight of all my foes,
does still my table spread;
my cup with Blessings overflows,
your oil anoints my head.
3 Your sure provisions gracious God
attend me all my days;
oh, may your house be my abode,
and all my work be praise.
Here would I find a settled rest,
while others go and come;
no more a stranger, nor a guest,
but like a child at home.
