Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #R64 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 To him that lov'd the souls of men
and wash'd us in his blood,
to royal honours rais'd our head,
and made us priests to God;
2 to him let ev’ry tongue be praise,
and ev’ry heart be love!
all grateful honours paid on earth,
and nobler songs above!
3 Behold, on flying clouds he comes!
his saints shall bless the day;
While they that pierc'd him sadly mourn
in anguish and dismay,
4 I am the First, and I the Last;
time centres all in me;
th’ Almighty God, who was, and is,
and evermore shall be. Scripture: Revelation 5:6-14 Languages: English Tune Title: JACKSON (BYZANTIUM)
To him that lov'd the souls of men
