Jesus, My Advocate Above
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 62 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. Jesus, my advocate above,
My friend before the throne of love,
If now for me prevails Thy prayer,
If now I find Thee pleading there,
If Thou the secret wish convey,
And sweetly prompt my heart to pray;
Hear, and my weak petitions join,
Almighty advocate, to Thine.
2. Fain would I know my utmost ill,
And groan my nature’s weight to feel,
To feel the clouds that round me roll,
The night that hangs upon my soul,
The darkness of my carnal mind,
My will perverse, my passions blind,
Scattered o’er all the earth abroad,
Immeasurably far from God.
3. Jesus, my heart’s desire obtain!
My earnest suit present, and gain;
My fullness of corruption show,
The knowledge of myself bestow;
A deeper displacence at sin,
A sharper sense of hell within,
A stronger struggling to get free,
A keener appetite for Thee.
4. O sovereign love, to Thee I cry,
Give me Thyself, or else I die!
Save me from death, from hell set free,
Death, hell, are but the want of Thee.
Quickened by Thy imparted flame,
Saved, when possessed of Thee, I am;
My life, my only heaven Thou art,
O might I feel Thee in my heart! Used With Tune: DOVERSDALE Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1739 ("Try Me, O God, and Seek the Ground of My Heart")

O Lord, Thou Art My God and King (2)
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 36 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: O Lord, Thou art my God and king Lyrics: 1. O Lord, Thou art my God and king;
Thee will I magnify and praise:
I will Thee bless, and gladly sing
Unto Thy holy name always.
2. Each day I rise I will Thee bless,
And praise Thy name time without end.
Much to be praised, and great God is;
His greatness none can comprehend.
3. Race shall Thy works praise unto race,
The mighty acts show done by Thee.
I will speak of the glorious grace,
And honor of Thy majesty;
4. Thy wondrous works I will record.
By men the might shall be extolled
Of all Thy dreadful acts, O Lord:
And I Thy greatness will unfold.
5. They utter shall abundantly
The memory of Thy goodness great;
And shall sing praises cheerfully,
Whilst they Thy righteousness relate.
6. The Lord our God is gracious,
Compassionate is He also;
In mercy He is plenteous,
But unto wrath and anger slow.
7. Good unto all men is the Lord:
O’er all His works His mercy is.
Thy works all praise to Thee afford:
Thy saints, O Lord, Thy name shall bless.
8. The glory of Thy kingdom show
Shall they, and of Thy power tell:
That so men’s sons His deeds may know,
His kingdom’s grace that doth excel.
9. Thy kingdom hath none end at all,
It doth through ages all remain.
The Lord upholdeth all that fall,
The cast-down raiseth up again.
10. The eyes of all things, Lord, attend,
And on Thee wait that here do live,
And Thou, in season due, dost send
Sufficient food them to relieve.
11. Yea, Thou Thine hand dost open wide,
And every thing dost satisfy
That lives, and doth on earth abide,
Of Thy great liberality.
12. The Lord is just in His ways all,
And holy in His works each one.
He’s near to all that on Him call,
Who call in truth on Him alone.
13. God will the just desire fulfill
Of such as do Him fear and dread:
Their cry regard, and hear He will,
And save them in the time of need.
14. The Lord preserves all, more and less,
That bear to Him a loving heart:
But workers all of wickedness
Destroy will He, and clean subvert.
15. Therefore my mouth and lips I’ll frame
To speak the praises of the Lord:
To magnify His holy name
For ever let all flesh accord. Used With Tune: DOVERSDALE Text Sources: Scottish Psalter/cite>, 1650

Why, Herod, Why The Godhead Fear?
Author: Caelius Sedulius, 5th Century; Richard Mant Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Why, Herod, why the Godhead fear Lyrics: 1 Why, Herod, why the Godhead fear,
When told Judea’s king was near?
Not earthly crowns away to bear
He came, but heav’nly to confer.
2 Led by the star, which ruled their sight,
To seek and find the Lord of Light,
The Magi spread their gifts abroad,
And prostrate own the present God.
3 The present God the heav’ns proclaim,
When to the laver pure He came,
The spotless Lamb; and on Him bore
Our sins, who knew not sin before.
4 The God the blushing waters own
By mighty sign, unheard, unknown;
When the pure spring, poured forth in wine,
Confessed the present power divine.
5 Now unto Him, th’incarnate Son,
Whose glory to the world was shown,
With God the Father glory be,
And, holy Comforter, with Thee! Used With Tune: DOVERSDALE Text Sources: Tr.: Ancient Hymns from the Roman Breviary (London, J. G. & F. Rivington, 1837)
