As when the Hebrew prophet raised

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #189 (1997) Topics: Canticles and Scripture Paraphrases Lyrics: 1 As when the Hebrew prophet raised the brazen serpent high the wounded looked and straight were cured; the people ceased to die, 2 so from the Saviour on the cross a healing virtue flows; who looks to him with living faith is saved from endless woes, 3 for God gave up the Son to death, so generous was that love, that all the faithful might enjoy eternal life above. 4 Not to condemn us, or to judge, the Lamb of God appeared; no weapons in his hands are seen, nor voice of terror heard. 5 Christ came to raise our fallen state, and our lost hopes restore; faith leads us to the mercy sea, and bids us fear no more.

Come, let us to the Lord our God

Author: John Morison, 1750-1798 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #194 (1997) Topics: Canticles and Scripture Paraphrases Lyrics: 1 Come, let us to the Lord our God with contrite hearts return; our God is gracious, nor will leave the desolate to mourn. 2 God's voice commands the tempest forth and stills the stormy wave; God's arm is strong and swift to strike, but also strong to save. 3 The night of sorrow long has reigned, but dawn shall bring us light: God shall appear, and we shall rise with gladness in God's sight. 4 Then let us know, let us press on to know our God the Lord, whose coming is as sure as dawn, whose name shall be adored. 5 As dew upon the tender grass diffusing fragrance round, as rain that ushers in the spring and cheers the thirsty ground, 6 so shall God's presence bless our souls and shed a joyful light, that hallowed morn shall chase away the sorrows of the night.
