Precious Lord, Take My Hand
While Sinners Utter Boasting Words
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 While sinners utter boasting words,
And glory in their shame;
The Lord, well pleased, an ear affords
To those who fear His name.
2 They often meet to seek His face,
And what they do or say,
Is noted in His book of grace,
Against another day.
3 For they, by faith, a day descry,
A joyfully expect,
When He, descending from the sky,
His jewels will collect.
4 Unnoticed now, because unknown,
A poor and suffering few;
He comes to claim them for His own,
And bring them forth to view.
5 With transport then, their Savior’s care
And favor they shall prove;
As tender parents guard and spare
The children of their love.
6 Assembled worlds will then discern
The saints alone are blest;
When wrath shall like an oven burn,
And vengeance strike the rest. Used With Tune: MAITLAND

Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone?
Author: Thomas Shepherd Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,239 hymnals First Line: Must Jesus bear the cross alone Lyrics:
1 Must Jesus bear the cross alone,
And all the world go free?
No, there's a cross for everyone,
And there's a cross for me.
2 How happy are the saints above,
Who once went sorr'wing here;
But now they taste unmingled love,
And joy without a tear.
3 The consecrated cross I'll bear,
Till death shall set me free,
And then go home my crown to wear,
For there's a crown for me.
4 Upon the crystal pavement, down
At Jesus' piercèd feet,
Joyful, I'll cast my golden crown,
And His dear name repeat.
Amen. Topics: Cross of the believer Scripture: Matthew 16:24 Used With Tune: MAITLAND Text Sources: Other authors also

Father, I Long, I Faint To See
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 100 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, I long, I faint to see
The place of Thine abode;
I’d leave Thine earthly courts, and flee
Up to Thy seat, my God!
2 Here I behold Thy distant face,
And ’tis a pleasing sight;
But to abide in Thine embrace
Is infinite delight.
3 I’d part with all the joys of sense
To gaze upon Thy throne;
Pleasure springs fresh for ever thence,
Unspeakable, unknown.
4 There all the heav’nly hosts are seen,
In shining ranks they move,
And drink immortal vigor in
With wonder and with love.
5 Then at Thy feet with awful fear
Th’ adoring armies fall;
With joy they shrink to nothing there,
Before th’ eternal All.
6 There I would vie with all the host
In duty and in bliss;
While "less than nothing" I could boast,
And "vanity confess."
7 The more Thy glories strike mine eyes
The humbler I shall lie;
Thus while I sink, my joys shall rise
Unmeasurably high.

He Who On Earth As Man Was Known
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 80 hymnals Lyrics: 1 He who on earth as man was known,
And bore our sins and pains;
Now, seated on th’eternal throne,
The God of glory reigns.
2 His hands the wheels of nature guide
With an unerring skill;
And countless worlds extended wide,
Obey His sovereign will.
3 While harps unnumbered sound His praise,
In yonder world above;
His saints on earth admire His ways,
And glory in His love.
4 His righteousness, to faith revealed,
Wrought out for guilty worms,
Affords a hiding place and shield,
From enemies and storms.
5 This land, through which His pilgrims go,
Is desolate and dry;
But streams of grace from Him o’erflow
Their thirst to satisfy.
6 When troubles, like a burning sun,
Beat heavy on their head;
To this almighty Rock they run,
And find a pleasing shade.
7 How glorious He! how happy they
In such a glorious friend!
Whose love secures them all the way,
And crowns them at the end. Used With Tune: MAITLAND Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779)
