And Is It So?

Author: John N. Darby Hymnal: CYBER #171 Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: And is it so--I shall be like Thy Son? Lyrics: 1. And is it so—I shall be like Thy Son? Is this the grace which He for me has won? Father of glory (thought beyond all thought!)— In glory, to His own blest likeness brought! 2. Oh, Jesus, Lord, who loved me like to Thee? Fruit of Thy work, with Thee, too, there to see Thy glory, Lord, while endless ages roll, Myself the prize and travail of Thy soul. 3. Yet it must be: Thy love had not its rest Were Thy redeemed not with Thee fully blest. That love that gives not as the world, but shares All it possesses with its loved co-heirs. 4. Nor I alone; Thy loved ones all, complete In glory, round Thee there with joy shall meet, All like Thee, for Thy glory like Thee, Lord, Object supreme of all, by all adored. 5. The heart is satisfied; can ask no more All thought of self is now forever o’er: Christ, its un-mingled object, fills the heart In blest adoring love—the endless part. 6. Father of mercies, in Thy presence bright All this shall be unfolded in the light; Thy children all, with joy Thy counsels know Fulfilled; patient in hope, while here below.

Awake, O Lord, As in the Time of Old!

Author: Henry Twells Hymnal: CYBER #205 Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: Awake, O Lord, as in the time of old Lyrics: 1. Awake, O Lord, as in the time of old! Come, Holy Spirit, in Thy power and might; For lack of Thee our hearts are strangely cold, Our minds but blindly groping towards the light. 2. Doubts are abroad: make Thou these doubts to cease! Fears are within: set Thou these fears at rest! Strife is among us: melt that strife to peace! Change marches onward: may all change blest! 3. Make us to be what we profess to be; Let prayer be prayer, and praise be heartfelt praise; From unreality, O set us free, And let our words be echoed by our ways. 4. Turn us, good Lord, and so shall we be turned: Let every passion grieving Thee be stilled: Then shall our race be won, our guerdon earned, Our Master looked on, and our joy fulfilled.

All Praise Be to God

Author: Robert S. Bridges Hymnal: CYBER #208 Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: All praise be to God, whom all things obey Lyrics: 1. All praise be to God, whom all things obey, From angels and men for ever and aye: Who sendeth on earth the powers of His throne, His providence good and love to make known. 2. His angels are they of countenance fair, The arm of His strength, His hand of kind care: His message of peace to us they reveal, His wisdom most high they seal or unseal. 3. By martyrs of old they stood in the flame, And bade them not flinch, but call on God’s name. Thro’ torment, thro’ shame, thro’ darkness of death They led without fear the sires of our faith. 4. They stand with the few, they fight for the free, God’s reign to advance o’er land and o’er sea: And when the brave die or fall in the fight, Their spirits they bear to rest in God’s sight. 5. For patience and toil a crown they prepare; They found for the meek a kingdom full fair; No famine nor plague ’gainst them doth prevail; Their bread cannot lack, their cruse cannot fail. 6. We pray Thee, who art Thy angels’ reward, Thy flock to defend forget not, O Lord; But prosper their aid, that us they may bring To see the true face of Jesus, our King.

Again Returns the Day of Holy Rest

Author: William Mason Hymnal: CYBER #213 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1. Again returns the day of holy rest Which, when He made the world, Jehovah blessed; When, like His own, He bade our labors cease, And all be piety, and all be peace. 2. Let us devote this consecrated day To learn His will, and all we learn obey; So shall He hear, when fervently we raise Our supplications and our songs of praise. 3. Father in Heaven, in whom our hopes confide, Whose power defends us, and whose precepts guide, In life our Guardian, and in death our Friend, Glory supreme be Thine till time shall end.

Blest are the pure in heart; they’ll see God in Heav’n. 3. Blest, men of peace; they will God’s sons be named. Blest, those who suffer slander and much shame. Blest, faithful ones, enduring for your Lord. Rejoice, be glad, for great is your reward. 4. I see my need and humbly seek Your face. Show me Your mercy; all my cares erase. Keep my heart pure; I long for righteousness. I know that as Your child I’m fully blest. Languages: English Tune Title: MAORI

By Babel's Riverside

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: CYBER #702 Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: By Babel's riverside we sat in tears Lyrics: 1. By Babel’s riverside we sat in tears, Remembering Zion’s pride in former years, While on the weeping willows there were hung The harps our grief had silenced and unstrung. 2. For they who led us there a captive throng Required that we prepare for them a song; Yea, there our captors asked for mirth and praise, Required a song of Zion’s happy days. 3. O how shall we thus sing at their command Songs of the Lord, our king, in this strange land? O Zion, if I e’er forget thy woe, Let my right hand its skill no longer know. 4. Yea, let my tongue, I pray, all silent be, If I do not alway remember thee; If I prefer not thee, though in thy grief, Above all other joys my very chief.

Come In, O Come!

Author: Handley C. G. Moule Hymnal: CYBER #943 Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: Come in, O come! the door stands open now Lyrics: 1. Come in, O come! the door stands open now; I knew Thy voice, Lord Jesus, it was Thou; The sun has set long since, the storms begin; ’Tis time for Thee, my Savior, O come in! 2. Alas, ill ordered shows the dreary room; The household stuff lies heaped amidst the gloom, The table empty stands, the couch undressed; Ah, what a welcome for th’Eternal Guest! 3. Yet welcome, and tonight this doleful scene Is e’en itself my cause to hail Thee in; This dark confusion e’en at once demands Thine own bright presence, Lord, and ord’ring hands. 4. I seek no more to alter things, or mend, Before the coming of so great a Friend; All were at best unseemly, and ’twere ill Beyond all else to keep Thee waiting still. 5. Come, not to find, but make this troubled heart A dwelling worthy of Thee as Thou art; To chase the gloom, the terror, and the sin: Come, all Thyself, yea come, Lord Jesus, in!

Christ of the Upward Way

Christ of the upward way, my guide divine, Where Thou hast set Thy feet, may I place mine; And move and march wherever Thou hast trod, Keeping face forward up the hill of God. 2. Give me the heart to hear Thy voice and will, That without fault or fear I may fulfill Thy purpose with a glad and holy zest, Like one who would not bring less than his best. 3. Give me the eye to see each chance to serve, Then send me strength to rise with steady nerve, And leap at once with kind and helpful deed, To the sure succor of a soul in need. 4. Give me the good stout arm to shield the right, And wield Thy sword of truth with all my might, That, in the warfare I must wage for Thee, More than a victor I may ever be. 5. Christ of the upward way, my guide divine, Where Thou hast set Thy feet, may I place mine; And when Thy last call comes, serene and clear, Calm may my answer be, Lord, I am here.

Come Ye Yourselves Apart

Author: Edward H. Bickersteth, Jr. Hymnal: CYBER #1144 Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: Come ye yourselves apart and rest awhile Lyrics: 1. Come ye yourselves apart and rest awhile; Weary, I know it, of the press and throng, Wipe from your brow the sweat and dust of toil, And in My quiet strength again be strong. 2. Come ye aside from all the world holds dear, For converse which the world has never known, Alone with Me and with My Father here, With Me and with My Father not alone. 3. Come, tell Me all that ye have said and done, Your victories and failures, hopes and fears. I know how hardly souls are wooed and won: My choicest wreaths are always wet with tears. 4. Come ye and rest: the journey is too great, And ye will faint beside the way and sink: The Bread of Life is here for you to eat, And here for you the Wine of Love to drink. 5. Then, fresh from converse with your Lord, return And work till daylight softens into ev’n; The brief hours are not lost in which ye learn More of your Master and His rest in Heav’n.

Hosanna! welcome to our hearts! for here Thou hast a temple, too, as Zion dear; O enter in, dear Lord, unbar the door; And in that temple dwell forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: WOODLANDS
