Help us, O Lord, behold, we enter!

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #29 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals New Year First Line: Help us, O Lord, behold, we enter Lyrics: 1 Help us, O Lord, behold, we enter Upon another year to-day: In Thee our hopes and thoughts now center, Renew our courage for the way: New life, new strength, new happiness We ask of Thee, oh, hear and bless. 2 May every plan and undertaking This year be all begun with Thee, When I am sleeping or am waking, Still let me know Thou art with me; Abroad do Thou my footsteps guide, At home be ever at my side. 3 Be this a time of grace and pardon; Thy rod I take with willing mind, But suffer naught my heart to harden, And let me now Thy mercy find; In Thee alone, my God, I live, Thou only canst my sins forgive. 4 And may this year to me be holy; Thy grace so fill my every thought, That all my life be pure and lowly And truthful as a Christian's ought; So make me, while yet dwelling here, Faithful and blest from year to year. 5 Jesus, be with me and direct me; Jesus, my plans and hopes inspire; Jesus, from tempting thoughts protect me; Jesus, be all my heart's desire; Jesus, be in my thoughts all day, Nor suffer me to fall away. 6 And grant, Lord, when the year is over, That it for me in peace my close; In all things care for me, and cover My head in time of fear and woes; So may I, when my years are gone, Appear with joy before Thy trone.

Oh! how shall I receive Thee?

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #16 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals First Line: Oh! how shall I receive Thee Lyrics: 1 Oh! how shall I receive Thee, How greet Thee, Lord, aright? All nations long to see Thee, My hope, my heart's Delight! Oh, kindle, Lord, most holy, Thy lamp within my breast, To do in spirit, lowly, All that will please Thee best. 2 Thy Zion palms is strewing. And branches fresh and fair; My heart, its powers renewing, An anthem shall prepare. My souls puts off her sadness Thy glories to proclaim; With all her strength and gladness She fain would serve Thy Name. 3 I lay in fetters groaning, Thou com'st to set me free: I stood, my shame bemoaning, Thou com'st to honor me. A glory Thou dost give me, A treasure safe on high, That will not fail nor leave me As earthly riches fly. 4 Love caused Thine incarnation, Love brought Thee down to me; Thy thirst for my salvation Procured my liberty. Oh, love beyond all telling, That led Thee to embrace, In love all love excelling, Our lost and fallen race! 5 Rejoice, then, ye sad-hearted, Who sit in deepest gloom, Who mourn o'er joys departed, And tremble at your doom: He, who alone can cheer you, Is standing at the door; He brings His pity near you, And bids you weep no more.

Holy Spirit, hear us

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #54 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Pentecost Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, hear us On this sacred day. Come to us with blessing.

To His blessed promise Now in faith we cling, Comforter most Holy! Spread o'er us Thy wing. 3 Lighten Thou our darkness, Be Thyself our Light, Strengthen Thou our weakness, Spirit of all might! In our doubts give counsel, In temptation aid, Say to us in danger, "Be not ye afraid!" 4 Spirit of adoption! Make us overflow With Thy sevenfold blessing And in grace to grow; "Into Christ baptized," Grant that we may be, Day and night, dear Spirit! Perfected by Thee.

O Thou, who by a star didst guide

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #31 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Epiphany Lyrics: 1 O Thou, who by a star didst guide The wise men on their way, Until it came and stood beside The place where Jesus lay; Although by stars Thou dost not lead Thy servants now below, Thy Holy Spirit, when they need, Will show them how to go. 2 As yet we know Thee but in part; But still we trust Thy Word, That blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see the Lord. O Saviour, give us, then, Thy grace, To make us pure in heart; That we may see Thee face to face Hereafter, as Thou art.

Now Israel's hope in triumph ends

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #33 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Now Israel's hope in triumph ends, With angels' glorious song ascends A star of heavenly splendor. O'er Bethlehem it shineth bright, And people walking in its light, Shall come and homage render. Great light, Bright light, Now descendeth, Darkness endeth, Day beginneth, Light to all the world it bringeth. 2 Among us dwells in truth and grace The hidden God, who loves our race; He brought us all salvation. We now behold His majesty, The only Son's true majesty, And bow in adoration. Draw near, And hear, Every nation, Now salvation God bestoweth, And His love and mercy showeth. 3 Rejoice, my soul, and bless His Name Who to the lost and fallen came, To open heaven's portals. Rejoice that God will mercy show, The broken covenant renew With us poor sinful mortals. Now be Glory Ever given God in heaven; Peace unending Be on earth from heaven descending.

O sacred Head, now wounded

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #34 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lent Lyrics: 1 O sacred Head, now wounded, With grief and shame weighed down Now scornfully surrounded, With thorns Thine only crown! O sacred Head, what glory, What bliss, till now, was Thine! Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine. 2 How art Thou pale with anguish, With sore abuse and scorn! How does that visage languish, Which once was bright as morn! What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered, Was all for sinners' gain; Mine, mine was the transgression, But Thine the deadly pain. 3 Lo, here I fall, my Saviour, 'Tis I deserve Thy place! Look on me with Thy favor, Vouchsafe to me Thy grace. Receive me, my Redeemer; My Shepherd, make me Thine! Of every good the Fountain, Thou art the Spring of mine! 4 What language shall I borrow To thank Thee, dearest Friend, For this, Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end! Oh, make me Thine for ever, And should I fainting be, Lord, let me never, never, Outlive my love to Thee. 5 Forbid that I should leave Thee; O Jesus, leave not me; In faith may I receive Thee, When death shall set me free. When strength and comfort languish, And I must hence depart, Release me then from anguish By Thine own wounded heart.

There is a fountain filled with blood

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #36 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lent Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood, Drawn from Immanuel's veins; And sinners, plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains. 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day; And there may I, as vile as he, Wash all my sins away. 3 Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed church of God Be saved to sin no more. 4 E'er since, by faith, I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die. 5 Then in a nobler, sweeter song I'll sing Thy power to save, When this poor lisping, stammering tongue Lies silent in the grave. 6 Lord, I believe Thou hast prepared, Unworthy though I be, For me a blood-bought free reward, A golden harp for me. 7 'Tis strung and tuned for endless years, And formed by power divine To sound in God the Father's ears No other name but Thine.

Alas! and did my Saviour bleed?

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #41 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lent First Line: Alas! and did my Savior bleed? Lyrics: 1 Alas and did my Saviour bleed? And did my Sovereign die? Would He devote that sacred Head For such a worm as I? 2 Was it for crimes that I had done, He groaned upon the tree? Amazing wonder, God's own Son Is suffering there for me! 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut his glories in, When Christ the mighty Maker died For mankind's every sin. 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face, While His dear cross appears; It brings to all a boundless grace, Robs death of all its fears. 5 Help me, O Lord, that I may see The debt of love I owe; Help me to keep myself to Thee, 'Tis all that I can do.

Blest Easter day, what joy is thine!

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #43 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Easter Lyrics: 1 Blest Easter day, what joy is thine! We praise, dear Lord, Thy Name divine, For Thou hast triumphed o'er the tomb; No more we need to dread its doom. 2 That tree, on which Thou offerdst up Thy life, now bears the fruit of hope: Thy precious blood for us is shed, Now we may feed on heavenly bread. 3 We thank Thee, Jesus, that Thy hand Has freed us from sin's galling band; No more its thralldome we need fear; The year of liberty is here. 4 O Jesus Christ, God's Son elect, Our Paschal Lamb without defect, To us Thou givest strength indeed, In all our conflicts, all our need. 5 Through Thee we always shall prevail, However hell may us assail, Thou setst us free, Thy name to praise, And leadst us into heavenly ways. 6 Oh, grant, that as Thou didst arise, I, too, with joy, may heavenward rise, First from my sin, to love Thy way, Then from the grave, at the last day. 7 All praise to Thee who from death's might, From carnal lust and sin's dark plight Redeemest me, and show'st how I May reach eternal life on high.

He lives, my Jesus, still the same; Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives, I know that my Redeemer lives!

Prepare the way, O Zion!

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #13 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lyrics: 1 Prepare the way, O Zion! Ye awful deeps, rise high, Sink low, ye towering mountains, The Lord is drawing nigh: The righteous King of glory, Foretold in sacred story. Oh, blest is He that came In God the Father's Name! 2 O Zion, He approacheth, Thy Lord and King for aye! Palm-branches strew with gladness Spread garments in His way. God's promise faileth never, Hosianna sound forever! Oh, blest is He that came In God the Father's Name! 3 Fling wide thy portals, Zion, And hail Thy glorious King; His tidings of salvation To every people bring, Who, waiting yet in sadness Would sing His praise with gladness. Oh, blest is He that came In God the Father's Name! 4 He cometh not with warriors, And not with pomp and show; Yet smiteth He with terror Sin, death, and every foe. The Spirit's sword He wieldeth, Not e'en to death He yieldeth, Oh, blest is He that came In God the Father's Name. 5 Give heed, thou sinful people, Thy King and Saviour own: The kingdom which He foundeth Is not an earthly one; No power can overthrow it, Nor earthly wisdom know it. Oh, blest is He that came In God the Father's Name! 6 The throne which He ascendeth Is fixed in heaven above: His sanctified dominion Is light alone and love. With grace and peace abounding His praise be ever sounding. Oh, blest is He that came In God the Father's Name! 7 Jerusalem is fallen, And closed its temple-door; Its sacrifices ended; Its scepter is no more. Christ's kingdom never ceaseth, Its glory still increaseth. Oh, blest is He that came In God the Father's Name!

Rejoice, all ye believers

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #14 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers, And let your lights appear! The evening is advancing, The darker night is near, The Bridegroom is arising, And soon He draweth nigh. Up, pray, and watch, and wrestle,-- At midnight comes the cry. 2 The watchers on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near; Go meet Him as He cometh, With hallelujahs clear. The marriage-feast is waiting, The gates wide-open stand: Up, up, ye heirs of glory. The Bridegroom is at hand! 3 Ye saints, who here in patience Your cross and sufferings bore, Shall live and reign for ever, When sorrow is no more. Around the throne of glory The Lamb ye shall behold, In triumph cast before Him Your diadems of gold! 4 Our Hope and Expectation, O Jesus, now appear; Arise, Thou Sun so longed for, O'er this benighted sphere! With hearts and hands uplifted; We plead, O Lord, to see The day of earth's redemption, That brings us unto Thee!

Hail to the Lord's Anointed

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #15 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed, Great David's greater Son! Hail, in the time appointed, His reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, To set the captive free; To take away transgression, And rule in equity. 2 He comes with succor speedy To those who suffer wrong; To help the poor and needy, And bid the weak be strong; To give them songs for sighing; Their darkness turn to light, Whose souls, condemned and dying, Were precious in His sight. 3 He shall come down like showers Upon the fruitful earth; And love, joy, hope, like flowers, Spring in His path to birth. Before Him, on the mountains, Shall peace, the herald, go; And righteousness, in fountains, From hill to valley flow. 4 For Him shall prayer unceasing And daily vows ascend; His kingdom still increasing, A kingdom without end. The tide of time shall never His covenant remove; His Name shall stand forever; That Name to us is Love.

O'er the distant mountains breaking

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #17 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals First Line: O'er the distant mountains breaking Lyrics: 1 O'er the distant mountains breaking Comes the reddening dawn of day; Rise, my soul, from sleep awaking, Rise, and sing, and watch, and pray; 'Tis Thy Saviour, 'Tis Thy Saviour, On His bright returning way. 2 O Thou long-expected! Wear Waits my anxious soul for Thee; Life is dark, and earth is dreary, Where Thy light I do not see; O my Saviour, O my Saviour, When wilt Thou return to me? 3 Nearer is my soul's salvation, Spent the night, the day at hand; Keep me in my lowly station, Watching for Thee, till I stand, O my Saviour, O my Saviour, In Thy bright and promsied land. 4 With my lamp, well trimmed and burning, Swift to hear and slow to roam, Watching for Thy glad returning, To restore me to my home. Come, my Saviour, Come, my Saviour, Thou hast promised; quickly come.

All hail to thee, O blessed morn!

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #18 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lyrics: 1 All hail to thee, O blessed morn! To tidings, long by prophets borne, Hast Thou fulfillment given. A sacred and immortal day, When unto earth, in glorious ray, Descends the grace of heaven! Singing, Ringing, Sounds are blending, Praises sending Unto heaven For the Lord to mankind given. 2 'Tis God's own Image and, withal, The Son of Man, that mortals all May find in Him a brother. He comes with peace and love to bide On earth, the erring race to guide, And help, as could no other; Rather Gather Closer, fonder, Sheep that wander, Feed and fold them, Than let evil powers hold them. 3 He tears, like other men, will shed, Our sorrows share, and be our aid, Through His eternal power; The Lord's good will unto us show, And mingle in our cup of woe The drops of mercy's shower; Dying, Buying, Through His passion Our salvation, And to mortals Opening the heavenly portals. 4 He comes, for our redemption sent, And by His glory heaven is rent To close upon us never; Our blessed Shepherd He would be, Whom we may follow faithfully And be with Him forever; Higher, Nigher, Glory winging, Praises singing To the Father And His Son, our Lord and Brother.
