How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #453 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Joel 2:32 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. Topics: Biblical Names and Places Manna; Death and Dying; Jesus Christ Name of; Missional Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PETER

By cool Siloam's shady rill
Author: Heber Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #482 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Joel 2:17 Lyrics: 1 By cool Siloam's shady rill
How sweet the lily grows;
How sweet the breath, beneath the hill,
Of Sharon's dewy rose!
2 Lo! such the child whose early feet
The paths of peace have trod,
Whose secret heart, with influence sweet,
Is upward drawn to God.
3 By cool Siloam's shady rill
The lily must decay;
The rose, that blooms beneath the hill,
Must shortly fade away.
4 And soon, too soon, the wintry hour
Of man's maturer age
Will shake the soul with sorrow's power
And stormy passion's rage.
5 O thou who givest life and breath,
We seek thy grace alone,
In childhood, manhood, age, and death,
To keep us still thine own.

Before thy feet with them to bow,
Though vilest of them all;
But, can I bear the piercing thought,
What if my name should be left out,
When thou for them shalt call?

Be thou my only hiding-place,
In this the accepted day;
Thy pardoning voice, oh, let me hear,
To still my unbelieving fear,
Nor let me fall, I pray.

Whene'er the archangel's trump shall sound,
To see thy smiling face;
Then loudest of the throng I'll sing.

With shouts of sovereign grace. Topics: Advent of Christ To Judgment; Advent of Christ To Kingdom; Book of Life; Christ Judge Languages: English Tune Title: MERIBAH

in sparkling raiment bright,
the armies of the ransomed saints
throng up the steeps of light:
"'Tis finished, all is finished!"--
their fight with death and sin;
fling open wide the golden gates,
and let the victors in!
2 What rush of Alleluias
fills all the earth and sky!
What ringing of a thousand harps
bespeaks the triumph nigh!
O day, for which creation
and all its tribes were made!
O joy, for all its former woes
a thousand fold repaid!
3 O then, what raptured greetings
on Canaan's happy shore,
what knitting severed friendships up,
where partings are no more!
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle
that brimmed with tears of late,
orphans no longer fatherless,
nor widows desolate.
4 Bring near thy great salvation,
thou Lamb for sinners slain;
fill up the roll of thine elect,
then take thy power and reign:
appear, Desire of nations,
thine exiles long for home;
show in the heav'n thy promised sign;
thou Prince and Savior, come!

At the last trumpet's sounding--
Caught up to meet him in the skies,
With joy their Lord surrounding;
No gloomy fears their souls dismay,
His presence sheds eternal day
On those prepared to meet him.
3 But sinners, filled with guilty fears,
Behold his wrath prevailing;
For they shall rise, and find their tears
And sighs are unavailing:
The day of grace is past and gone;
Trembling they stand before the throne,
All unprepared to meet him.

The end of things created!
The Judge of man I see appear,
On clouds of glory seated:
Beneath his cross I view the day
When heaven and earth shall pass away,
And thus prepared to meet him.

Great God, whose universal sway
Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #216 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Joel 2:23 Lyrics: 1 Great God, whose universal sway
The known and unknown worlds obey,
Now give the kingdom to thy Son;
Extend his power, exalt his throne.

So shall he send his influence down;
His grace on fainting souls distils,
Like heavenly dew on thirsty hills.
3 The heathen lands that lie beneath
The shades of overspreading death,
Revive at his first dawning light,
And deserts blossom at the sight.
4 The saints shall flourish in his days,
Dressed in the robes of joy and praise;
Peace, like a river, from his throne,
Shall flow to nations yet unknown. Topics: Christ Intercession and Reign; Universal Reign of Christ

nada te aparte de mi corazón.
Noche y día pienso yo en ti,
y tu presencia es luz para mí.

quiero a tu lado mi senda correr;
como tu *hijo tenme, Señor,
siempre morando en un mismo amor.

Rey de los cielos, tesoro mejor.

déjame el gozo del cielo alcanzar;
alma de mi alma, Dueño y Señor,
en vida y muerte sé tú mi visión.
