Christian Equality

Author: H. Martineau Hymnal: BHPPD866 #182 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: All men are equal in their birth Lyrics: All men are equal in their birth, Heirs of the earth and skies; All men are equal, when that earth Fails from their dying eyes. God greets the throngs who pay their vows In courts their hands have made; And hears the worshipper who bows Beneath the plantain shade. ’Tis man alone who difference sees, And speaks of high and low; And worships those, and tramples these, While the same path they go. O, let man hasten to restore To all their rights of love! In power and wealth exult no more, In wisdom lowly move. Ye great! renounce your earth-born pride; Ye low! your shame and fear; Live, as ye worship, side by side; Your brotherhood revere. Languages: English

Praise the Lord!

Author: Montgomery Hymnal: BHPPD866 #499 (1866) First Line: All ye nations, praise the Lord Lyrics: All ye nations, praise the Lord; All ye lands, your voices raise; Heaven and earth, with loud accord, Praise the Lord, forever praise. For His truth and mercy stand, Past, and present, and to be, Like the years of His right hand, Like His own eternity. Praise Him, ye who know His love; Praise Him, from the depths beneath; Praise Him in the heights above; Praise your Maker, all that breathe! Languages: English

Charitable Judgment

Author: Scott Hymnal: BHPPD866 #288 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: All-seeing God!-'tis Thine to know Lyrics: All-seeing God! ’tis Thine to know The springs whence wrong opinions flow,— To judge, from principles within, When frailty errs, and when we sin. Who, among men, great Lord of all, Thy servant to his bar shall call? Judge him, for modes of faith, Thy foe, Or doom him to the realms of woe? Who with another’s eye can read, Or worship by another’s creed? Trusting Thy grace, we form our own, And bow to Thy commands alone. If wrong, correct; accept, if right; While, faithful, we improve our light, Condemning none, but zealous still To learn and follow all Thy will. Languages: English

Spiritual Blessings

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #217 (1866) First Line: Almighty Father! Thou hast many a blessing Lyrics: Almighty Father! Thou hast many a blessing In store for every erring child of Thine; For this I pray,—Let me, Thy grace possessing, Seek to be guided by Thy will divine. Not for earth’s treasures, for her joys the dearest, Would I my supplications raise to Thee; Not for the hopes that to my heart are nearest, But only that I give that heart to Thee. I pray that Thou wouldst guide and guard me ever; Cleanse, by Thy power, from every stain of sin; I will Thy blessing ask on each endeavor, And thus Thy promised peace my soul shall win. Languages: English

Prayer for Wisdom

Author: Montgomery Hymnal: BHPPD866 #43 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Almighty God, in humble prayer Lyrics: Almighty God, in humble prayer To Thee our souls we lift; Do Thou our waiting minds prepare For Thy most needful gift. We ask not golden streams of wealth Along our path to flow; We ask not undecaying health, Nor length of years below: We ask not honors, which an hour May bring and take away; We ask not pleasure, pomp, or power, Lest we should go astray: We ask for wisdom: Lord, impart The knowledge how to live: A wise and understanding heart To all before Thee give. The young remember Thee in youth, Before the evil days! The old be guided by Thy truth In wisdom’s pleasant ways! Languages: English

He Maketh All Things New

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #594 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Almighty Spirit, now behold Lyrics: Almighty Spirit, now behold A world by sin destroyed! Creative spirit, as of old Move on the formless void! Give Thou the word—the healing sound Shall quell the deadly strife, And earth again, like Eden crowned, Bring forth the tree of life. If sang the morning stars for joy When nature rose to view, What strains shall angel harps employ, When Thou shalt all renew! Languages: English

The Soldier of the Cross

Author: Watts Hymnal: BHPPD866 #311 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Am I a soldier of the cross Lyrics: Am I a soldier of the cross, And pledged to bear its shame? And shall I fear to own Christ’s cause, Or blush to speak his name? Must I be carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease, While others fought to win the prize, And sailed through bloody seas? Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Shall sloth and faintness win Thy peace, O Thou, the martyr’s God? The fearless heart Thou wilt sustain; Increase my courage, Lord! I’ll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by Thy word. The saints in all this glorious war Shall conquer, though they die; They see the triumph from afar, And seize it with their eye. When Thy illustrious day shall rise, And all Thy armies shine In robes of victory through the skies, The glory shall be Thine. Languages: English

The Reformers

Author: Nicoll Hymnal: BHPPD866 #426 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: An offering at the shrine of power Lyrics: An offering at the shrine of power Our hands shall never bring; A garland on the car of pomp Our hands shall never fling; Applauding in the conqueror’s path Our voices ne’er shall be; But we have hearts to honor those Who bade the world go free! Praise to the good, the pure, the great, Who made us what we are,— Who lit the flame which yet shall glow With radiance brighter far! Glory to them in coming time, And through eternity, Who burst the captive’s galling chain, And bade the world go free! Languages: English

Evening Hymn for a Child

Author: Pierpont Hymnal: BHPPD866 #372 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Another day its course hath run Lyrics: Another day its course hath run, And still, O God! Thy child is blest; For Thou hast been by day my sun, And Thou wilt be by night my rest. Sweet sleep descends, mine eyes to close; And now, while all the world is still, I give my body to repose, My spirit to my Father’s will. Languages: English

Not Lost, But Gone Before

Author: Whittier Hymnal: BHPPD866 #404 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Another hand is beckoning us Lyrics: Another hand is beckoning us, Another call is given; And glows once more with angel steps The path that leads to heaven. O, half we deemed she needed not The changing of her sphere, To give to heaven a shining one, Who walked an angel here. Unto our Father’s will alone One thought hath reconciled; That He whose love exceedeth ours Hath taken home his child. Fold her, O Father, in thine arms, And let her henceforth be A messenger of love between Our human hearts and Thee. Still let her mild rebukings stand Between us and the wrong, And her dear memory serve to make Our faith in goodness strong. Languages: English
