When in the Lord Jehovah's Name

Author: Dean Alford Meter: 8.8.8.8.7 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When in the Lord Jehovah's Name, The Saviour lowly riding came, Loudest and first an infant throng Greeted His coming with their song. Hosanna in the highest! 2 We too are taught to know the Lord, To fear His Name, to read His Word; And though we simple are and young, Can praise Him with our joyful song, Hosanna in the highest! Soon shall the Lord again pass by to judgment from His throne on high; And from the saints' assembled throng Shall burst upon the world the song, Hosanna in the highest! Then may our youthful band be found With coronals of triumph crowned; Raising, the heavenly hosts among, Our chorus of eternal song, Hosanna in the highest! Amen.

Hark! upon the morning breezes

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 8.8.8.8.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: I Hark! upon the morning breezes, In the darkness, ere the waking, Music sweet the senses pleases, Soft upon the stillness breaking;— “Glory, Glory!” this the singing, Welcome to Immanuel bringing. II Shepherds at their watch beholding Angels clad in glistening whiteness, Heard the wondrous news unfolding ’Mid that dazzling scene of brightness;— “Glory, Glory!” peace, and kindness, Light is breaking on our blindness. III Glorious morn! The sun uprising, Shone upon a world rejoicing; God is with us, truth surprising; List to song the message voicing,— “Glory, Glory!” ages told it, Heavenly voices now unfold it. IV God adored, our nature wearing! Ah, such condescending meekness! Stooping to a world despairing, Full of pity for our weakness;— “Glory, Glory!” praises swelling, God hath made with man His dwelling.

Rejoice, my friends, the Lord is King

Meter: 8.8.8.8.7 Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Rejoice, my friends, the Lord is King, Let all prepare to take him in, Let Jacob rise, and Zion sing, And all the earth with praises ring, And give to Jesus glory. 2. O! may the desert land rejoice, And mourners hear the Savior's voice; While praise their every tongue employs, And all obtain immortal joys, And give to Jesus glory. 3. O! may the saints of every name Unite to praise the bleeding Lamb! May jars and discords cease to flame, And all the Savior's love proclaim, And give to Jesus glory. 4. I long to see the Christians join In union sweet, and peace divine; When every church with grace shall shine, And grow in Christ the living vine, And give to Jesus glory. 5. Come, parents, children, bond, and free, Come, who will go along with me? I'm bound fair Canaan's land to see, And shout with saints eternally, And give to Jesus glory. 6. Those beauteous fields of living green, By faith my joyful eyes have seen; Though Jordan's billows roll between, We soon shall cross the narrow stream, And give to Jesus glory. 7. A few more days of pain and woe, A few more suffering scenes below, And then to Jesus we shall go, Where everlasting pleasures flow, And there we'll give him glory. 8. That awful trumpet soon will sound, And shake the vast creation round, And call the nations under ground, And all the saints shall then be crowned, And give to Jesus glory. 9. Then shall our tears be wiped away, No more our feet shall ever stray; When we are freed from cumbrous clay We'll praise the Lord in endless day And give to Jesus glory.

Hail Thee, Savior And Atoner

Author: N. F. S. Grundtvig Meter: 8.8.8.8.7 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Hail Thee, Savior and Atoner! Lyrics: 1 Hail Thee, Savior and Atoner! Though the world Thy name dishonor, Fill'd with love my heart proposes To adorn Thy cross with roses And to offer praise to Thee. 2 Oh, what moved Thee so to love us When enthron'd with God above us That for us Thou all wouldst offer And in deep compassion suffer Even death, that we might live? 3 Love alone Thy heart was filling When to die Thy soul was willing. Rather givest Thou than takest; Hence, O Savior, Thou forsakest All, to suffer on the cross. 4 Ah, my heart in deep contrition Feels its sad and lost condition. Cold and barren like a mountain, How can it repay the fountain Of Thy love my Savior dear? 5 Yet I know that from Thy passion Flows a stream of full salvation Which can bid the mountain vanish, Which can sin and coldness banish And restore my heart to Thee. 6 Lord, with tears I pray Thee ever: Lead into my heart that river Which with grace unbounded cleanses Heart and soul of all offences And removes my guilt and shame. 7 Though all earthly things I cherish Like the flowers may fade and perish, Thou, I know, wilt stand beside me And from death and judgement hide me, Thou hast paid the wage of sin. 8 Yes, my heart believes the wonder Of Thy cross, which ages ponder. Shield me, Lord, when foes assail me, Be my staff when life shall fail me; Take me to Thy Paradise. Topics: Passion and Easter Used With Tune: [Hail Thee, Savior and Atoner]
