No One Loves You So

Author: Alfred Barratt Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: Are the burdens you carry too heavy to bear? Refrain First Line: There is no one who loves you like Jesus Lyrics: 1. Are the burdens you carry too heavy to bear? Does the weight of your sin fill your heart with despair? Go to Jesus for aid, He will answer your prayer; There is no one who loves you so. Refrain There is no one who loves you like Jesus, No one who loves you so; For the cross you lay down He will give you a crown; There is no one who loves you so. 2. Do you think in your sorrow you suffer alone? All your grief and your sadness to Him are made known; He hath never forsaken or turned from His own; There is no one who loves you so. [Refrain] 3. He alone can redeem you from darkness and woe; He will wash all your sins till they’re white as the snow, And His wonderful grace you may constantly know; There is no one who loves you so. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Are the burdens you carry too heavy to bear?]

A voice comes o’er the waters, A voice both loud and clear, Come over here and help us, We’re bound in slavish fear!

Come over and help us today. 2. Our idols cannot help us; We only deeper fall; And dimmer grows our vision, When on their names we call, We look and wait and wonder If someone o’er the sea Will hasten to relieve us, Will come and set us free. [Refrain] 3. We hear that o’er the waters A glorious light doth shine, A light sent down from heaven, Oh, send that light divine! We hear that one called Jesus Can save us from our sin; We want to hear his footsteps, We want to let Him in.

A Crowd Fills The Court Of The Temple

Author: Frederic W. Goadby Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A crowd fills the court of the temple, A sound as of praise stirs the air, Jerusalem thrills with emotion, The Lord of the temple is there! In vain is the priestly displeasure To silence the anthems that ring; Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna! The children all joyfully sing. 2 And if in this temple of worship, Where now we are met in His name, The Lord should appear in His beauty, Himself His own Gospel proclaim, What anthems of grateful devotion Around Him would echo and ring; Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna! The children would joyfully sing. 3 Lord! make each young heart Thine own temple, Reveal Thy sweet presence within, Illumine our minds by Thy coming, Expel every longing for sin: And when in our souls we adore Thee, How pure the glad praise we shall bring! Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna! The children will joyfully sing. 4 And when in that temple of glory, Where falls never shadow of night, Where sorrow and sin never sadden, And Thou shalt Thyself be the light; When round Thee the ransomed are thronging, High Heav’n with their praises will ring, Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna! Thy children for ever will sing. Used With Tune: LYSTRA Text Sources: The School Hymnal by W. R. Stevenson (London: E. Marlborough & Company, 1880)

A Dread Hath Come on Me

Author: Simon Dach; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.6.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. A dread hath come on me, I know not where to flee, My pow’rs can naught avail me; My trembling limbs grow weak, My lips refuse to speak, My heart and senses fail me. 2. For thinking on that sound That once shall pierce the ground And make its slumb’rers tremble, Arise! the day of doom Is come at last—is come! Before the judge assemble! 3. Ah God! no tempest’s shock That cleaves the solid rock Could make my spirit shiver As doth that awful tone; Were my heart steel or stone ’Twould hear that voice and quiver. 4. I eat, or wake, or sleep, I talk, or smile, or weep, Yet still that voice of thunder Is sounding through my heart— Forget not what thou art, The doom thou liest under! 5. For daily do I see How many deaths there be, How swiftly all things wither; How sickness fills the grave, Or fire, or sword, or wave Is sweeping thousands thither. 6. My turn will soon be here, The end is drawing near, I hear its warning plainly; Death knocketh at my door And tells me all is o’er, And I would fly him vainly. 7. Ah! who in this my strait Will be mine advocate? Will all things leave me friendless? My wealth and power are dust, This judge is ever just, His righteous doom is endless. 8. Lord Jesus Christ! ’tis Thou Alone canst help me now, But ’twas for this Thou camest, To save us in this hour— Then show Thy mercy’s power, For they are safe Thou claimest. 9. Speak Thou for me! Thou art The refuge of my heart; With gladness let me hear Thee; Bid me to Thee ascend, Where praise shall never end, And love shall aye be near Thee.

All is fulfilled—my heart, record

Author: Johann E. Schmidt, 1670-1745; Arthur T. Russell Meter: 8.8.9.9.10.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 All is fulfilled—my heart, record The dying words of thy dear Lord. When He those bitter pains sustainèd, Which on the cross thy life obtainèd, He who did all things well, Then bowed His head, Exclaiming, "It is finishèd." 2 All is fulfilled—the cross hath wrought Whate’er the Law and prophets taught. Where all the strength of nature failèd, There Jesu’s wounds for all availèd. That which before the worlds Heav’n counselèd, Now through His death is finishèd. 3 All is fulfilled—all satisfied: The Father lays His wrath aside; Our peace is made, and justice stillèd, Since God’s own Son hath all fulfillèd. What then shall wake the heart To anxious dread? Believe now, "It is finishèd." 4 All is fulfilled—I am made free Possessed of true felicity: Now Jesus sin and death subdueth, And us with life and grace reneweth; So when to dissolution Worlds are led, This stays us—"It is finishèd."
