Appears in 137 hymnals Scripture: John 12 Lyrics: 1 See what a living Stone the Builders did refuse; Yet God hath built his Church thereon, in Spite of envious Jews. 2 The Scribe and angry Priest reject thine only Son; Yet on this Rock shall Zion rest, as the chief Corner-Stone. 3 The Work, O Lord, is thine, and wondrous in our Eyes: This Day declares it all divine, this Day did Jesus rise. 4 This is the glorious Day that our Redeemer made; Let us rejoice, and sing and pray, let all the Church be glad. 5 Hosanna to the King of David's Royal Blood; Bless him, ye Saints; he comes to bring Salvation from your God. 6 We bless thine holy Word, which all this Grace displays; And offer on thine Altar, Lord, our Sacrifice of Praise.

When Jesus Left His Father's Throne

Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 128 hymnals Scripture: John 12:12-15 Lyrics: 1 When Jesus left his Father's throne, He chose a humble birth; Like us, unhonored and unknown, He came to dwell on earth. Like him may we be found below, In wisdom's paths of peace; Like him in grace and knowledge grow, As years and strength increase. 2 Sweet were his words and kind his look, When mothers round him pressed; Their infants in his arms he took, And on his bosom blessed. Safe from the world's alluring harms, Beneath his watchful eye, Thus in the circle of his arms May we for ever lie. 3 When Jesus into Zion rode, The children sang around; For joy they plucked the palms and strowed Their garments on the ground. Hosanna our glad voices raise, Hosanna to our King! Should we forget our Savior's praise, The stones themselves would sing. Topics: Jesus Christ; Palm/Passion Sunday Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

Your people long to greet you, my hope, my heart's delight. O Jesus, let your Word be a lamp to light my way, to show me how to please you, to guide me ev'ry day. 2 Love caused your incarnation; love brought you down to me. Your thirst for my salvation procured my liberty. Oh, love beyond all telling that led you to embrace in love, all love excelling, our lost and fallen race! 3 Rejoice, then, you sad-hearted, who sit in deepest gloom, who mourn o'er joys departed and tremble at your doom. Despair not; he is near you, he's standing at the door who best can help and cheer you and bids you weep no more. 4 Sin's debt, that fearful burden, let not your souls distress; your guilt the Lord will pardon and cover by his grace. He comes, for you procuring the peace of sin forgiv'n, his children thus securing eternal life in heav'n. 5 He comes to judge the nations, a terror to his foes, a light of consolation and blessèd hope to those who love the Lord's appearing. O glorious Sun, now come, send forth your beams most cheering, and guide us safely home. Topics: Advent Used With Tune: WIE SOLL ICH DICH EMPFANGEN Text Sources: D. M.
