Th' atoning work is done

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #241 (1918) Lyrics: 1 Th'atoning work is done, The Victim’s blood is shed, And Jesus now is gone His people’s cause to plead: He stands in heaven their great High Priest, And bears their names upon His breast. 2 He sprinkled with His blood The mercy-seat above; For justice had withstood The purposes of love; But justice now withstands no more, And mercy yields her boundless store. 3 No temple made with hands His place of service is; In heaven itself He stands, A heavenly priesthood His: In Him the shadows of the Law Are all fulfilled, and now withdraw. 4 And though awhile He be Hid from the eyes of men, His people look to see Their great High Priest again: In brightest glory He will come, And take His waiting people home.

Hail, Thou once despisèd Jesus!

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #242 (1918) Meter: 8.7.8.1 Lyrics: 1 Hail, Thou once despisèd Jesus! Hail, Thou Galilean King! Thou didst suffer to release us; Thou didst free salvation bring. Hail, Thou agonizing Savior, Bearer of our sin and shame! By Thy merits we find favor; Life is given through Thy name. 2 Paschal Lamb, by God appointed, All our sins on Thee were laid; By almighty love anointed, Thou hast full atonement made. All Thy people are forgiven Through the virtue of Thy blood; Open is the gate of heaven; Peace is made 'twixt man and God. 3 Jesus, hail! enthroned in glory, There forever to abide; All the heavenly host adore Thee, Seated at Thy Father's side. There for sinners Thou art pleading, There Thou dost our place prepare, Ever for us interceding, Till in glory we appear. 4 Worship, honor, power, and blessing, Thou art worthy to receive; Loudest praises, without ceasing, Meet it is for us to give. Help, ye bright angelic spirits, Bring your sweetest, noblest lays; Help to sing our Savior's merits, Help to chant Immanuel's praise. Topics: Intercession Languages: English

Hail the day that sees Him rise

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #243 (1918) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Hail the day that sees Him rise, To His throne above the skies! Christ, the Lamb for sinners given, Re-ascends His native heaven. 2 There the glorious triumph waits: Lift your heads, eternal gates; He hath conquered death and sin; Take the King of glory in! 3 Him though highest heaven receives, Still He loves the earth He leaves; Though returning to His throne, Still He calls mankind His own. 4 See, He lifts His hands above, See, He shows the prints of love. Hark! His gracious lips bestow Blessings on His church below! 5 Still for us His death He pleads; Prevalent, He intercedes; Near Himself prepares our place, Harbinger of human race. 6 There we shall with Thee remain Partners of Thy endless reign; There Thy face unclouded see, Find our heaven of heavens in Thee.

Jesus, my great High Priest

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #244 (1918) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my great High Priest, Offered His blood and died; My guilty conscience seeks No sacrifice beside. His powerful blood did once atone, And now it pleads before the throne. 2 To this dear Surety's hand Will I commit my cause; He answers and fulfills His Father's broken laws. Behold my soul at freedom set; My Surety paid the dreadful debt. 3 My Advocate appears For my defence on high; The Father bows His ears, And lays his thunder by. Not all that hell or sin can say Shall turn His heart, His love away. 4 Should all the hosts of death, And powers of hell unknown, Put their most dreadful forms Of rage and mischief on, I shall be safe, for Christ displays Superior power and guardian grace.

The counsel of His grace in me He surely shall fulfill. 4 Jesus, I hang upon Thy word: I steadfastly believe Thou wilt return, and claim me, Lord, And to Thyself receive. 5 When God is mine, and I am His, Of Paradise possessed, I taste unutterable bliss And everlasting rest.

Come O come, Thou quickening Spirit

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #246 (1918) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Come O come, Thou quickening Spirit, True God from eternity! Let us Thy blest grace inherit, And our souls be filled with Thee; Then shall spirit, life, and light Drive away our inner night. 2 Grant our hearts Thy heavenly treasure: Wisdom, counsel, purity; That in naught we may take pleasure Save in that which pleaseth Thee. Let Thy knowledge spread and grow, Working error's overthrow. 3 Lead us to our soul's salvation, Keep us in the paths of grace, Shield us from the world's temptation That might foil us in the race; When we stumble, hear our call, Work repentance for our fall. 4 Let us trust Thy witness wholly That we children are of God, Who rely upon Him solely, When they pass beneath the rod; For the Father's chastenings Bless above all earthly things. 5 Prompt us, that we come before Him Joyously with hope in view, Sigh in us, when we implore Him, Ever plead for us anew; Then our prayer shall not be vain, And our faith new strength shall gain. 6 If our soul for comfort languish, And despondency grow strong, That the heart must cry in anguish: "O my God, my God, how long!" Comfort then the aching breast, Grant us courage, patience, rest. 7 Mighty Spirit of reliance, Sure Defence in all our need! When the foe bids us defiance, Bid Thy work in us Godspeed! Grant us weapons for the strife, And with victory crown our life. 8 Guard, O God, our faith forever; Let not Satan, death or shame Ever part us from our Savior; Lord, our Refuge is Thy name. Though our flesh would fain say Nay, Be Thy Word to us still Yea. 9 And when death life's thread is rending, Then assure us yet the more, As the heirs of life unending, Of the glory there in store Which can never be expressed, But with which we shall be blest.

That we To Thee Truly living, To Thee giving Prayer unceasing, Still may be in love increasing. 2 Give to Thy Word impressive power, That in our hearts, from this good hour, As fire it may be glowing; That we confess the Father, Son, And Thee, the Spirit, Three in One, Thy glory ever showing. O stay And sway Our souls ever, That they never May forsake Thee, But by faith their refuge make Thee. 3 Thou Fountain, whence all wisdom flows, Which God on pious hearts bestows, Grant us Thy consolation, That in our pure faith's unity We faithful witnesses may be Of grace that brings salvation. Hear us, Cheer us By Thy teaching; Let our preaching And our labor Praise Thee, Lord, and bless our neighbor. 4 Left to ourselves we shall but stray; O lead us on the narrow way, With wisest counsel guide us, And give us steadfastness, that we May ever faithful prove to Thee, Whatever woes betide us. Lord, now Heal Thou All hearts broken, And betoken Thou art near us, Whom we trust to light and cheer us. 5 Thy heavenly strength sustain our heart That we may act the valiant part With Thee as our reliance; Be Thou our refuge and our shield, That we may never quit the field, Bidding all foes defiance. Descend, Defend From all errors And earth's terrors: Thy salvation Be our constant consolation. 6 O mighty Rock, O Source of life, Let Thy dear Word, 'mid doubt and strife, Be so within us burning, That we be faithful unto death, In Thy pure love and holy faith, From Thee true wisdom learning! Thy grace And peace On us shower; By Thy power Christ confessing, Let us win our Savior's blessing. 7 O gentle Dew, from heav'n now fall With power upon the hearts of all, Thy tender love instilling: That heart to heart more closely bound, Fruitful in kindly deeds be found, The law of love fulfilling; Then, Lord, Discord Shall not grieve Thee; We receive Thee; Where Thou livest, Peace, and love, and joy Thou givest. 8 Grant that our days, while life shall last, In purest holiness be passed, Be Thou our strength forever; Grant that our hearts henceforth be free From sinful lust and vanity, Which us from Thee must sever. Keep Thou Pure now From offences Heart and senses. Blessed Spirit! Let us heavenly life inherit. Topics: Pentecost Languages: English

Send, O God, a gentle shower

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #248 (1918) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Send, O God, a gentle shower, For my heart is dry as sand; Father, bathe Thy drooping flower, Water Thou Thy thirsty land; Let Thy Holy Spirit's boon O'er me from Thy heavenly throne Like abundant streams be flowing, Blessings on my heart bestowing. 2 By a human father, even Though he is by sin defiled, Only good gifts will be given Unto a beloved child; How much more dost Thou the same, For "Good Father" is Thy name! Thou wilt send to me Thy Spirit, Thy good gifts I shall inherit. 3 Jesus, who for my salvation To the Father didst ascend, Hear my earnest supplication, Unto me Thy Spirit send: Let the Comforter for aye Bide with me, my strength and stay, That in faith I may not waver, Steadfast in the truth forever. 4 Holy Ghost, Strength of the simple, O make Thine abode with me, Let me ever be Thy temple; Cheerfully I welcome Thee. Do Thou purify my heart, Cast out all things that might part Me from those sweet joys of heaven Which by Thee to faith are given. 5 With Thy gifts my heart endowing, Make it new and clean and fair; Let it in true love be glowing, Living in Thy grace fore'er; Give me courage bold and good, Sanctify my flesh and blood, Let me, trusting in Christ's merit, Worship God in truth and spirit. 6 Thus myself I will deliver, Lord, to Thee; my soul shall strive Only after heaven forever, Until there I shall arrive Where the Father, and the Son, And Thyself in heaven's high throne, I shall praise and all Thy treasures In angelic, heavenly measures.
