Who upholdest heav'n and earth; By whose truth and tender mercy I have been led on from birth, Night and sleep now pass away-- Welcome be Thy holy day. 2 For this day so fair and holy, Be Thou by my spirit blest, Through Thy Word still nearer heaven Guide my spirit toward its rest: Than the work of praise and prayer Let me know no higher care. 3 O the beauty of Thy service! O the sweetness of Thy Word! Sweeter far than honey gathered From the flower by bee or bird: Blessed all, who day and night Make Thy word their chief delight. 4 O my God, speak Thou Thine Amen! For we are Thy chosen own; Be Thy praise by all exalted, And Thy glorious name made known, Till aye we may, through grace, See and serve Thee face to face.

Speed Thy Servants

Author: T. Kelly Appears in 79 hymnals First Line: Speed thy servants, Saviour, speed them Lyrics: 1 Speed thy servants, Saviour, speed them; Thou art Lord of winds and waves: They were bound, but thou hast freed them; Now they go to free the slaves; Be thou with them, be thou with them; 'Tis thine arm alone that saves. 2 Friends and home and all forsaking, Lord, they go at thy command, As their stay thy promise taking, While they traverse sea and land O, be with them, O, be with them; Lead them safely by the hand. 2 Where no fruit appears to cheer them, And they seem to toil in vain. Then in mercy, Lord, draw near them, Then their sinking hopes sustain; Thus supported, Thus supported Bid their zeal revive again. 3 In the midst of opposition May they trust, O Lord in thee: When success attends their mission, May thy servants humble be; Never leave them, Never leave them, Till thy face in heav'n they see.

Crown him! Crown him! Crown him! Crown him! Crown the Savior, King of kings. 3 Sinners in derision crowned him, mocking thus the Savior's claim; saints and angels crowd around him, own his title, praise his name. Crown him! Crown him!
