And Am I Only Born to Die?

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #1 Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1. And am I only born to die? And must I suddenly comply With nature’s stern decree? What after death for me remains? Celestial joys, or hellish pains, To all eternity? 2. How then ought I on earth to live, While God prolongs the kind reprieve And props the house of clay? My sole concern, my single care, To watch, and tremble, and prepare Against the fatal day. 3. No room for mirth or trifling here, For worldly hope, or worldly fear, If life so soon is gone: If now the Judge is at the door, And all mankind must stand before The inexorable throne! 4. No matter which my thoughts employ, A moment’s misery, or joy; But O! when both shall end, Where shall I find my destined place? Shall I my everlasting days With fiends, or angels spend? 5. Nothing is worth a thought beneath But how I may escape the death That never, never dies; How make mine own election sure, And, when I fail on earth, secure A mansion in the skies. 6. Jesus, vouchsafe a pitying ray, Be Thou my guide, be Thou my way To glorious happiness; Ah, write the pardon on my heart, And whensoe’er I hence depart, Let me depart in peace.

At All Times Praise the Lord

Author: Johann S. Howson Hymnal: CYBER #2 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. At all times praise the Lord; His promises are sure; What if thou doubt? His steadfast Word Unchanging shall endure. Praise Him when skies are bright, And gladness fills thy days; Heav’n shames thee with its glorious light, And calls thee to His praise. 2. Praise Him when clouds are dark; True faith waits not to prove; Tho’ hope no bright’ning gleam may mark, His meaning still is love. Praise Him when drear and lone The shadows ’round thee fall, No eye upon Thy sins but One— Fear not, He pardons all. 3. Praise Him when home is sweet, As tho’ we ne’er should part; But pray—while kindred spirits meet— Pray for a thoughtful heart. Praise Him when far away On mountain or on sea; Each place is home to them who pray; The Father guardeth thee. 4. Praise Him when joyful songs The saints on earth unite, In sacred chorus, with the throngs Of angels in the height. At all times praise the Lord; His promises are sure; Fear not, doubt not; His steadfast Word Unchanging shall endure. Languages: English Tune Title: PASTOR BONUS

Abba, Father! We Approach Thee

Author: James Deck Hymnal: CYBER #3 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Abba, Father! We approach Thee In our Savior’s precious name; We, Thy children, here assembled, Now Thy promised blessing claim; From our sins His blood hath washed us, ’Tis through Him our souls draw nigh, And Thy Spirit, too, hath taught us, Abba, Father, thus to cry. 2. Once as prodigals we wandered In our folly far from Thee, But Thy grace, o’er sin abounding, Rescued us from misery; Thou Thy prodigals hast pardoned, Kissed us with a Father’s love, Spread the festive board, and called us, E’er to dwell with Thee above. 3. Clothed in garments of salvation, At Thy table is our place, We rejoice, and Thou rejoicest, In the riches of Thy grace; It is meet, we hear Thee saying, We should merry and be glad, I have found My once lost children, Now they live who once were dead. 4. Abba, Father! all adore Thee, All rejoice in Heav’n above, While in us they learn the wonders Of Thy wisdom, grace, and love; Soon before Thy throne assembled, All Thy children shall proclaim, Glory, everlasting glory, Be to God and to the Lamb!

Abide with me; fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide. When other helpers fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. 2.

Come not in terrors, as the King of kings, But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings, Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea— Come, friend of sinners, and thus bide with me. 5. Thou on my head in early youth didst smile; And, though rebellious and perverse meanwhile, Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee, On to the close, O Lord, abide with me. 6. I need Thy presence every passing hour. What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s power? Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me. 7. I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death’s sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me. 8. Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies. Heaven’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Tell of Thy woe, Thy victory won, When Thou didst pray: Thy will be done. 4. Abide with us, O Savior tender, That bitter day when life shall end, When to the grave we must surrender, And fear and pain our hearts shall rend. The shield of faith do Thou bestow When trembling we must meet the foe. 5.

While earth is fading from our sight, Our eyes behold the realms of light. Languages: English Tune Title: NEUMARK

Alas! By Nature How Depraved

Author: John Newton Hymnal: CYBER #14 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Alas! by nature how depraved, How prone to every ill! Our lives, to Satan, how enslaved, How obstinate our will! 2. And can such sinners be restored, Such rebels reconciled? Can grace itself the means afford To make a foe a child? 3. Yes, grace has found the wondrous means Which shall effectual prove; To cleanse us from our countless sins, And teach our hearts to love. 4. Jesus for sinners undertakes, And died that we may live; His blood a full atonement makes, And cries aloud, Forgive. 5. Yet one thing more must grace provide, To bring us home to God; Or we shall slight the Lord, who died, And trample on His blood. 6. The Holy Spirit must reveal The Savior’s work and worth; Then the hard heart begins to feel A new and heavenly birth. 7. Thus bought with blood, and born again, Redeemed, and saved, by grace Rebels, in God’s own house obtain A son’s and daughter’s place. Languages: English Tune Title: BANGOR

Author: Jean Ingelow Hymnal: CYBER #32 Meter: 10.10.10.6 First Line: And didst Thou love the race that loved not Thee? Lyrics: 1. And didst Thou love the race that loved not Thee? And didst Thou take to Heaven a human brow? Dost plead with man’s voice by the marvelous sea? Art Thou his kinsman now? 2. O God, O kinsman loved, but not enough, O Man, with eyes majestic after death, Whose feet have toiled along our pathways rough, Whose lips drawn human breath! 3. By that one likeness which is ours and Thine, By that one nature which doth hold us kin, By that high Heaven where, sinless, Thou dost shine To draw us sinners in; 4. By Thy last silence in the judgment hall, By long foreknowledge of the deadly tree, By darkness, by the wormwood and the gall, I pray Thee visit me. 5. Come, lest this heart should, cold and cast away, Die ere the guest adored she entertain— Lest eyes which never saw Thine earthly day Should miss Thy heavenly reign.

And wilt not you, when I correct, Be humbled at My feet? 6. To please themselves they oft chastise, And put their sons to pain; But you are precious in My eyes, And shall not smart in vain. 7.

Afflictions, Though They Seem Severe

Author: John Newton Hymnal: CYBER #39 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Afflictions, though they seem severe; In mercy oft are sent; They stopped the prodigal’s career, And forced him to repent. 2.

I’ll go, and tell him all I’ve done, And fall before his face Unworthy to be called his son, I’ll seek a servant’s place. 5. His father saw him coming back, He saw, and ran, and smiled; And threw his arms around the neck Of his rebellious child. 6. Father, I’ve sinned—but O forgive! I’ve heard enough, he said, “Rejoice my house, my son’s alive, For whom I mourned as dead. 7. Now let the fatted calf be slain, And spread the news around; My son was dead, but lives again, Was lost, but now is found. 8. ’Tis thus the Lord His love reveals, To call poor sinners home; More than a father’s love He feels, And welcomes all that come.

Thou madest man immortal at the first, An image of Thine own eternity; And when he fell from life, through sin accursed, And lost his right to the life giving tree, Thy love, unconquered would to him restore His life ennobled and forevermore. 4. Such was Thy love, Thou didst not even spare Thy Best-beloved, but gav’st Him for us all; To live that human life beyond compare, And dying, by His death retrieve our fall. In Him Thy love unbounded we behold, For, giving Him, Thou canst not aught withhold. 5. Thou knowest what we are, how frail and blind, Thou still rememberest that we are but dust: Like as a father pitieth, Thou art kind, Thy justice kindness, and Thy kindness just. Then hear Thy children’s prayer from Heav’n Thy throne; Father, Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done. Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 50TH
