Jesus, and shall it ever be

Author: Joseph Grigg Hymnal: SDAH1886 #101 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be, A mortal man ashamed of thee? Ashamed of thee, whom angels praise, Whose glories shine through endless days? 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far Let evening blush to own a star; He sheds the beams of light divine O'er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon Let midnight be ashamed of noon; 'Twas midnight with my soul till he, Bright Morning Star, bade darkness flee. 4 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heaven depend! No; when I blush, be this my shame That I no more revere his name. 5 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may When I've no guilt to wash away; No tear to wipe, no good to crave, No fears to quell, no soul to save. 6 Till then,--nor is my boasting vain,-- Till then I boast a Saviour slain; And O, may this my glory be, That Christ is not ashamed of me!

Jesus, my love, my chief delight

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #102 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my love, my chief delight, For thee I long, for thee I pray, Amid the shadows of the night, Amid the business of the day. 2 When shall I see thy smiling face, That face which I have often seen? Arise, thou Sun of Righteousness, Scatter the clouds that intervene. 3 Thou art the glorious Gift of God To sinners weary and distressed; The first of all his gifts bestowed, And certain pledge of all the rest. 4 Since I can say this gift of mine, I'll tread the world beneath my feet, No more at poverty repine, Nor envy the rich sinner's state. 5 The precious jewel I will keep, And lodge it deep within my heart; At home, abroad, awake, asleep, It never shall from thence depart.

O Thou, my soul, forget no more

Author: Krishna Pal Hymnal: SDAH1886 #103 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O Thou, my soul, forget no more The Friend who all thy sorrows bore; Let every idol be forgot, But, O my soul, forget him not. 2 Eternal truth and mercy shine In him, and he himself is thine; And canst thou, then, with sin beset, Such charms, such matchless charms, forget? 3 O no! till life itself depart, His name shall cheer and warm my heart; And, lisping this, from earth I'll rise, And join the chorus of the skies. 4 Then through eternity I'll sing The matchless love of Christ, my King; And finding there no end of days, So shall I find no end of praise.

Come, let us sing the song of songs

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: SDAH1886 #104 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Come, let us sing the song of songs, The angels first began the strain, The homage which to Christ belongs: "Worthy the Lamb, for he was slain!" 2 Slain to redeem us by his blood, To cleanse from every sinful stain, And make us kings and priests to God: Worthy the Lamb, for he was slain!" 3 To him who suffered on the tree, Our souls, at his soul's price, to gain, Blessing, and praise, and glory be: "Worthy the Lamb, for he was slain!" 4 To him enthroned by filial right All power in heaven and earth proclaim, Honor, and majesty, and might: "Worthy the Lamb, for he was slain!" 5 Long as we live, and when we die, And while in heaven with him we reign, This song our song of songs shall be: "Worthy the Lamb, for he was slain!"

What equal honors shall we bring

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #105 (1886) Lyrics: 1 What honors shall we bring To thee, O Lord our God, the Lamb, When all the notes that angels sing Are far inferior to thy name? 2 Worthy is he that once was slain, The Prince of peace that groaned and died, Worthy to rise, and live, and reign, At his almighty Father's side. 3 Blessings forever on the Lamb, Who bore the curse for wretched men; Let angels sound his sacred name, Let every creature say, Amen!

When strangers stand and hear me tell

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #106 (1886) Lyrics: 1 When strangers stand and hear me tell What beauties in my Saviour dwell, Where he is gone fain would know, That they may seek and love him too. 2 O may my spirit daily rise On wings of faith above the skies, Till I shall make my last remove, To dwell forever with my love. 3 In Paradise, within the gates, A higher entertainment waits, Fruits new and old laid up in store, There we shall hunger nevermore.

Nature with open volume stands

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #107 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Nature with open volume stands To spread her Maker's praise abroad, And every labor of his hands Shows something worthy of a God; 2 But in the grace that rescues man His brighter form of glory shines; Here on the cross 'tis fairest drawn In precious blood and crimson lines. 3 O, the sweet wonders of that cross, Where Christ, the Saviour, loved and died! The noblest life my spirit draws From his dear wounds and bleeding side. 4 I would forever speak his name In tones to mortal ears unknown, With angels join to praise the Lamb, And worship at his Father's throne.

Jesus, thou joy of loving hearts

Author: Bernard of Clairvaux Hymnal: SDAH1886 #108 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Jesus , thou joy of loving hearts! Thou fount of life! thou light of men! From the best bliss that earth imparts, We turn unfilled to thee again. 2 Thy truth unchanged has ever stood; Thou savest those that on thee call; To them that seek thee, thou art good, To them that find thee, all in all. 3 We taste thee, O thou Living Bread, And long to feast upon thee still; We drink of thee, the Fountain-head, And thirst our souls from thee to fill! 4 Our restless spirits yearn for thee, Where'er our changeful lot is cast; Glad, when they gracious smile we see, Blest, when our faith can hold thee fast. 5 O Jesus, ever with us stay; Make all our moments calm and bright; Chase the dark night of sin away, Shed o'er the world thy holy light!

O that I could forever dwell

Author: Andrew Reed Hymnal: SDAH1886 #109 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O that I could forever dwell Delighted at my Saviour's feet, Behold the form I love so well, And all his tender words repeat! 2 The world shut out from all my soul, And heaven brought in with all its bliss, O, is there aught, from pole to pole, One moment to compare with this? 3 This is the hidden life I prize, A life of penitential love; When most my follies I despise, And raise my highest thoughts above; 4 When all I am I clearly see, And freely own, with deepest shame; When the Redeemer's love to me Kindles within a deathless flame. 5 Thus would I live till nature fail, And all my former sins forsake; Then rise to God within the vail, And of eternal joys partake.

Awake, my soul, in joyful lays

Author: Samuel Medley Hymnal: SDAH1886 #110 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, in joyful lays, And sing thy great Redeemer's praise; He justly claims a song from me, His loving kindness, O, how free! 2 He saw me ruined in the fall, Yet loved me, notwithstanding all; He saved me from my lost estate: His loving-kindness, O, how great! 3 Though numerous hosts of mighty foes, Though earth and hell my way oppose, He safely leads my soul along: His loving-kindness, O, how strong! 4 When trouble, like a gloomy cloud, Has gathered thick and thundered loud, He near my soul has always stood: His loving-kindness, O, how good! 5 And when earth's rightful King shall come To take his ransomed people home, I'll sing upon that blissful shore His loving-kindness evermore.
