Adoption

Hymnal: Laudes Domini #834 (1884) Topics: Adoption; Adoption; Adoption First Line: Not all the nobles of the earth Lyrics: 1 Not all the nobles of the earth, Who boast the honors of their birth, So high a dignity can claim, As those who bear the Christian name. 2 To them the privilege is given To be the sons and heirs of heaven; Sons of the God who reigns on high, And heirs of joy beyond the sky. 3 His will he makes them early know, And teaches their young feet to go; Whispers instruction to their minds, And on their hearts his precepts binds. 4 Their daily wants his hands supply, Their steps he guards with watchful eye; Leads them from earth to heaven above, And crowns them with eternal love.

Spirit of Adoption

Author: Berridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #81 (1844) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Adoption First Line: Well, canst thou read thy heart Lyrics: 1 Well, canst thou read thy heart, And feel the plague of sin? Does Sinai’s thunder make thee start, And conscience roar within? 2 Expect to find no balm On nature’s barren ground; All human medicines will do harm; They only skin the wound. 3 To Jesus Christ repair, And knock at mercy’s gate; His blood alone can wash thee fair, And make thy conscience sweet. 4 In season due he seals A pardon on the breast; The wounds of sin his Spirit heals, And brings the gospel-rest. 5 [So comes the peace of God, Which cheers the conscience well; And love shed in the heart abroad, More sweet than we can tell.] 6 Adopted sons perceive Their kindred to the sky; The Father’s pardoning love receive, And “Abba, Father,” cry.

Adoption

Author: Cruttenden Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #XCI (1792) Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Adoption First Line: Let others boast their ancient line Lyrics: 1 Let others boast their ancient line In long succession great; In the proud list let heroes shine, And monarchs swell the state; Descended from the King of Kings, Each saint a nobler title sings. 2 Pronounce me, gracious God, thy son, Own me an heir divine; I'll pity princes on the throne, When I can call thee mine; Scepters and crowns unenvied rise, And lose their lustre in mine eyes. 3 Content, obscure I pass my days, To all I meet unknown, And wait till thou thy child shalt raise, And seat menear thy throne. No name, no honors here I crave, Well pleas'd with those beyond the grave. 4 Jesus, my elder brother, lives, With him I too shall reign; Nor sin, nor death, while he survives, Shall make the promise vain. In him my title stands secure, And shall, while endless years endure. 5 When he, in robes divinely bright, Shall once again appear, Thou, too my soul, shalt shine in light, And his full image bear. Enough!—I wait th' appointed day, Bless'd Savior, haste, and come away! Scripture: 1 John 3:1-3 Languages: English
