Bless'd be the everlasting God
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 189 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:3-5 Lyrics:
Bless’d be the everlasting God,
the Father of our Lord;
Be his abounding mercy praised,
his majesty adored.
When from the dead he raised his Son,
and called him to the sky,
He gave our souls a lively hope
that they should never die.
To an inheritance divine
he taught our hearts to rise;
’Tis uncorrupted, undefiled,
unfailing in the skies.
Saints by the pow’r of God are kept
till the salvation come:
We walk by faith as strangers here;
but Christ shall call us home.
Bless'd be the everlasting God
Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee
Author: Edward Caswall Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,021 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the very thought of thee
with sweetness fills my breast;
but sweeter far thy face to see,
and in thy presence rest.
2 No voice can sing, no heart can frame,
nor can the mind recall
a sweeter sound than thy blest name,
O Savior of us all!
3 O hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek,
to those who ask, how kind thou art,
how good to those who seek!
4 But what to those who find? Ah, this
no tongue or pen can show;
the love of Jesus, what it is
none but his loved ones know.
5 Jesus, our only joy be thou,
as thou our prize wilt be;
in thee be all our glory now,
and through eternity.

Jesus, These Eyes Have Never Seen
Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 239 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, these eyes have never seen
that radiant form of thine;
the veil of sense hangs dark between
thy blessèd face and mine.
2 I see thee not, I hear thee not,
yet art thou oft with me;
and earth hath ne'er so dear a spot
as where I meet with thee.
3 Yet, though I have not see, and still
must rest in faith alone;
I love thee, dearest Lord, and will,
unseen, but not unknown.
4 When death these mortal eyes shall seal,
and still this throbbing heart,
the rending veil shall thee reveal,
all glorious as thou art. Used With Tune: NUN DANKET ALL' (GRÄFENBERG)

How Firm a Foundation
Author: "K" Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2,121 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:7 First Line: How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
is laid for your faith in God's excellent Word!
What more can be said than to you God hath said,
to you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 "Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed,
for I am thy God, and will still give thee aid;
I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
for I will be near thee, thy troubles to bless,
and sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
my grace, all sufficient, shall be thy supply;
the flame shall not hurt thee; I only design
thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine.
5 "The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose,
I will not, I will not desert to its foes;
that soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never, no, never, no, never forsake."

If ever I loved thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.

I'll ever adore thee in heaven so bright;

Hymn 108
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 114 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:5 First Line: Now with our mortal eyes Lyrics:
Now with our mortal eyes
Have we beheld the Lord;
Yet we rejoice to hear his name,
And love him in his word.
On earth we want the sight
Of our Redeemer's face;
Yet, Lord, our inmost thoughts delight
To dwell upon thy grace.
And when we taste thy love,
Our joys divinely grow
Unspeakable, like those above,
And heav'n begins below.
