Now Let Our Cheerful Eyes Survey

Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4556 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Now let our cheerful eyes survey Our great high priest above, And celebrate His constant care, And sympathetic love. 2. Though raised to a superior throne, Where angels bow around, And high o’er all the shining train, With matchless honors crowned— 3. The names of all His saints He bears Engraven on His heart; Nor shall a name once treasured there E’er from His care depart. 4. Those characters shall fair abide Our everlasting trust, When gems, and monuments, and crowns, Are moldered down to dust. 5. So, gracious Savior! on my breast, May Thy dear name be worn, A sacred ornament and guard, To endless ages borne. Languages: English Tune Title: SOUTHWELL (Irons)

Now let our cheerful eyes survey

Author: Doddridge Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #233 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Now let our cheerful eyes survey Our great High-Priest above, And celebrate his constant care And sympathetic love. 2 Though raised to heaven's exalted throne, Where angels bow around, And high o'er all the hosts of light, With matchless honors crowned-- 3 The names of all his saints he bears, Deep graven on his heart; Nor shall the weakest Christian say That he has lost his part. 4 Those characters shall fair abide, Our everlasting trust, When gems and monuments and crowns Have moldered down to dust. 5 So, gracious Saviour, on my breast May thy loved name be worn, A sacred ornament and guard, To endless ages borne.
