With Joy We Contemplate the Grace
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 420 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 42:3 Lyrics: 1 With joy we contemplate the grace
of our High Priest above;
his heart is made of tenderness;
it overflows with love.
2 Touched with a sympathy within,
he knows our feeble frame;
he knows what sore temptations mean,
for he has felt the same.
3 But spotless, innocent, and pure
the great Redeemer stood
while Satan's fiery darts he bore,
and did resist to blood.
4 He'll never quench the smoking flax,
but raise it to a flame;
the bruised reed he never breaks,
nor scorns the meanest name.
5 Then let our humble faith address
his mercy and his pow'r;
we shall obtain deliv'ring grace
in ev'ry needful hour.

God Is Working His Purpose Out
Author: Arthur Campbell Ainger Meter: Irregular Appears in 93 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 42:4 Lyrics: 1 God is working his purpose out
as year succeeds to year:
God is working his purpose out,
and the time is drawing near;
nearer and nearer draws the time,
the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
2 From utmost east to utmost west,
where'er the church has gone,
by the mouth of many messengers
the call of God has come:
Give ear to me, you continents;
you isles, give ear to me,
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
3 March we forth in the strength of God,
with the banner of Christ unfurled,
that the light of the glorious gospel of truth
may shine throughout the world:
fight we the fight with sorrow and sin
to set their captives free,
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
4 All we can do is done in vain
unless God blesses the deed;
vainly we hope for the harvesttide
till God gives life to the seed;
yet nearer and nearer draws the time,
the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.

Isaiah 42:1-13: Behold my Servant! see him rise
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 28 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 42:1-13 First Line: Behold my Servant! see him rise Lyrics:
Behold my Servant! see him rise
exalted in my might!
Him have I chosen, and in him
I place supreme delight.
On him, in rich effusion poured,
my Spirit shall descend;
My truths and judgments he shall show
to earth’s remotest end.
Gentle and still shall be his voice,
no threats from him proceed;
The smoking flax he shall not quench,
nor break the bruised reed.
The feeble spark to flames he’ll raise;
the weak will not despise;
Judgment he shall bring forth to truth,
and make the fallen rise.
The progress of his zeal and pow’r
shall never know decline,
Till foreign lands and distant isles
receive the law divine.
He who erected heav’ns bright arch,
and bade the planets roll,
Who peopled all the climes of earth,
and formed the human soul,
Thus saith the Lord, Thee have I raised,
my Prophet thee install;
In right I’ve raised thee, and in strength
I’ll succour whom I call.
132
I will establish with the lands
a covenant in thee,
To give the Gentile nations light,
and set the pris’ners free:
Asunder burst the gates of brass;
the iron fetters fall;
And gladsome light and liberty
are straight restored to all.
I am the Lord, and by the name
of great JEHOVAH known;
No idol shall usurp my praise,
nor mount into my throne.
Lo! former scenes, predicted once
conspicuous rise to view;
And future scenes, predicted now,
shall be accomplished too.
Sing to the Lord in joyful strains!
let earth his praise resound,
Ye who upon the ocean dwell,
and fill the isles around!
O city of the Lord! begin
the universal song;
And let the scattered villages
the cheerful notes prolong.
Let Kedar’s wilderness afar
lift up its lonely voice;
And let the tenants of the rock
with accents rude rejoice;
Till ‘midst the streams of distant lands
the islands sound his praise;
And all combined, with one accord,
JEHOVAH’s glories raise.

my only trust and Saviour of my heart,
who pain didst undergo for my poor sake;
I pray thee from our hearts all cares to take.
2 Thou art the King of mercy and of grace,
reigning omnipotent in every place:
so come, O King, and our whole being sway;
shine on us with the light of thy pure day.
3 Thou art the life by which alone we live
and all our substance and our strength receive;
comfort us by thy faith and by thy power,
nor daunt our hearts when comes the trying hour.
4 Thou hast the true and perfect gentleness,
thou hast no harshness and no bitterness:
make us to taste the sweet grace found in thee
and ever stay in thy sweet unity.
5 Our hope is in no other save in thee;
our faith is built upon thy promise free;
come, give us peace, make us so strong and sure,
that we may conquerors be and ills endure. Used With Tune: TOULON
