Awake, My Soul, to Joyful Lays
Author: Samuel Medley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,073 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Awake, my soul, to joyful lays,
And sing thy great Redeemer’s praise;
He justly claims a song from me—
His lovingkindness, O how free!
Lovingkindness, lovingkindness,
His lovingkindness, O how free!
2. He saw me ruined in the fall,
Yet loved me notwithstanding all;
He saved me from my lost estate—
His lovingkindness, O how great!
Lovingkindness, lovingkindness,
His lovingkindness, O how great!
3. Though numerous hosts of mighty foes,
Though earth and hell my way oppose,
He safely leads my soul along—
His lovingkindness, O how strong!
Lovingkindness, lovingkindness,
His lovingkindness, O how strong!
4. When trouble, like a gloomy cloud,
Has gathered thick and thundered loud,
He near my soul has always stood—
His lovingkindness, O how good!
Lovingkindness, lovingkindness,
His lovingkindness, O how good!
5. Often I feel my sinful heart
Prone from my Jesus to depart;
But though I have him oft forgot,
His lovingkindness changes not.
Lovingkindness, lovingkindness,
His lovingkindness changes not.
6. Soon I shall pass the gloomy vale,
Soon all my mortal powers must fail;
O! may my last expiring breath
His lovingkindness sing in death.
Lovingkindness, lovingkindness,
His lovingkindness sing in death.
7. Then let me mount and soar away
To the bright world of endless day;
And sing with raptures and surprise,
His lovingkindness in the skies.
Lovingkindness, lovingkindness,
His lovingkindness in the skies. Used With Tune: LOVING-KINDNESS Text Sources: J. H. Meyer's Collection of Hymns for Lady Huntingdon's Chapel (London: 1782)

The heavenly mansion
Appears in 750 hymnals First Line: The heavenly home is bright and fair Lyrics: 1 The heavenly home is bright and fair,
Nor death nor sighing visits there;
Its glittering towers the sun outshine--
That heavenly mansion shall be mine,
That heavenly mansion, heavenly mansion,
That heavenly mansion shall be mine.
2 My Father's house is built on high,
Above the arched and starry sky;
When from this earthly prison free
That heavenly mansion mine shall be.
3 While here, a stranger far from home,
Affliction's waves may round me foam;
Although like Laz'rus, sick and poor,
My heavenly mansion is secure.
4 I envy not the rich and great,
Their pomp of wealth and pride of state;
My Father is a richer King--
That heavenly mansion still I sing.
5 Let others seek a home below,
Which flames devour, or waves o'erflow;
Be mine the happier lot to own
A heavenly mansion near the throne.
6 Then, fail this earth, let stars decline,
And sun and moon refuse to shine;
All nature sink, and cease to be,
That heavenly mansion stands for me. Used With Tune: THE HEAVENLY MANSION

Author: George B. Cheever Appears in 21 hymnals Refrain First Line: Loving-kindness, loving-kindness Lyrics: 1 Thy loving-kindness, Lord, I sing,
Of grace and life the sacred spring—
In blood o’erflowing, rich and free,
In loving-kindness shed for me.
Refrain:
Loving-kindness, loving-kindness,
His loving-kindness, oh, how free!
2 I to Thy mercy seat repair,
And find Thy loving-kindness there;
And when to Thy sweet Word I go,
Thy loving-kindness there I know. [Refrain]
3 Each evening from the world apart,
Thy loving-kindness cheers my heart;
And when the day salutes my eyes,
Thy loving-kindness doth arise. [Refrain]
4 Lord, from the moment of my birth,
I’ve nothing known but love on earth;
By day, by night, where’er I be,
Thy loving-kindness follows me. [Refrain]
5 From daily sin and daily woe,
Thy loving-kindness saves me now;
And I will praise, for sins forgiven,
Thy loving-kindness, all, in Heaven. [Refrain] Used With Tune: LOVING-KINDNESS Text Sources: Christian Melodies, 1851
