To the name of our salvation
Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 118 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 3:9 Lyrics: 1 To the name of our salvation
laud and honour let us pay,
which for many a generation
hid in God's foreknowledge lay,
but with holy exultation
we may sing aloud today.
2 Jesus is the name we treasure,
name beyond what words can tell,
name of gladness, name of pleasure,
ear and heart delighting well;
name of power beyond all measure,
saving us from sin and hell.
3 Jesus is the name exalted
over every other name;
in this name, whene'er assaulted
we can put our foes to shame:
strength to those who would have halted,
eyes to blind, and feet to lame.
4 Therefore we in love adoring
this most blessèd name revere,
Holy Jesus, thee imploring
so to write it in us here,
that hereafter, heavenward soaring,
we may sing with angels there. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Risen - Reign and Priesthood; Adoration Of Jesus; Conflict; Jesus Name Used With Tune: TANTUM ERGO SACRAMENTUM Text Sources: 15th century; translated Hymns Ancient and Modern, 1861

To redeem our Souls he comes
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Ephesians 3:10 Lyrics: 1 To redeem our Souls he comes,
And our earthy Man assumes;
All his Image fully bears,
All his Curse, and Sin, and Fears,
Sunk to all his Hell;
Follow'd him where e'er he fell,
Careful still for to expose
Sin to all deserved Woes.
2 Thro' his Side and pierced Heart;
Thro' each nervous tender Part,
The awaken'd Sword of God,
Bath'd in Heav'n, in Sinners Blood.
O! the Mystery,
Thro' his Body's Agony,
The Battle enter'd to his Soul,
Floods of Wrath did o'er him roll.
3 Sweat, and Blood, and streaming Wounds,
Cover him, whilst dreadful Sounds
Rend the frighted Atmosphere,
Piercing ev'ry hearing Ear:
Most confused Noise!
Now we hear the Conq'ror's Voice;
Then deep Groans and horrid Yell,
All the wild uproar of Hell.
4 See the Battle fiercer grow;
Blood in mighty Torrents flow;
Quakes the Earth, and rends the Rocks,
Nature fells tremendous Shocks,
Whilst the Sun, by Flight,
Speaks the near approach of Night;
Bury'ng all the Conq'rors Wrath
In the vanquish'd Rebels Death.
To redeem our Souls he comes
