When, rising from the bed of death
Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 258 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When, rising from the bed of death,
O’erwhelmed with guilt and fear,
I view my Maker face to face,
O how shall I appear?
If yet, while pardon may be found,
And mercy may be sought,
My heart with inward horror shrinks,
And trembles at the thought;
2 When thou, O Lord, shalt stand disclosed
In majesty severe,
And sit in judgement on my soul,
O how shall I appear?
But thou hast told the troubled mind
Who does her sins lament,
The timely tribute of her tears,
Shall endless woe prevent.
3 Then see the sorrow of my heart,
Ere yet it be too late;
And hear my Saviour’s dying groans,
To give those sorrows weight.
For never shall my soul despair
Her pardon to procure,
Who knows thine only Son has died
To make her pardon sure. Topics: The Christian Year Passiontide Used With Tune: THIRD MODE MELODY
When, rising from the bed of death
Lo, What a Glorious Sight Appeared
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 286 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo! what a glorious sight appeared
before admiring eyes:
the former things all passed away,
the former earth and skies.
From heav’n the new Jerus'lem came,
for Christ, as bride prepared.
A voice resounding from the throne
these wondrous things declared:
2 "Now God has come to dwell with men,
and moved his blest abode.
His people they shall be at last,
and he shall be their God.
His gracious hand shall wipe the tears
from ev'ry weeping eye,
for pain and grief shall be no more,
and death itself shall die."
3 The One who sat upon the throne
said, "I make all things new!
Write down the words that you have heard,
for they are firm and true.
It is all done, and by my pow'r
is paradise restored.
I am the First, and I the Last,
the one eternal Lord.
4 "Come, all who thirst! To you I will
my healing water give.
Drink from my fountain without price
and so forever live.
Blest is the man who, conquering,
his heritage has won,
for I will be his faithful God
and he shall be my son.
5 "As for the vile and faithless ones,
those who my will defy
are thrown into the burning lake,
and death itself shall die."
We, too, shall stand before the throne;
then shall our names be found
recorded in the Book of Life.
How shall our joy abound! Topics: Christ Second Coming and the Last Judgment of Scripture: Revelation 21:1-8 Used With Tune: ST. MATTHEW

As on the cross the Saviour hung
Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 172 hymnals Lyrics:
1.
'Twas on the cross the Savior hung,
And wept, and bled, and died,
He poured salvation on a wretch
that languished at his side.
His crimes with inward grief and shame,
The Penitent confessed;
Then turned his dying eyes to Christ,
And thus his prayer addressed:
2.
Jesus, thou Son and heir of heaven!
Thou spotless Lamb of God!
I see thee bathed in sweat and tears,
And weltering in thy blood.
Yet quickly from these scenes of woe
In triumph thou shalt rise;
Burst through the gloomy shades of death,
And shine above the skies
3.
Amid the glories of that world,
Dear Savior, think on me,
And in the victories of thy death,
Let me a sharer be.
His prayer the dying Jesus hears,
And instantly replies,
Today thy parting soul shall be
With me in paradise.

As on the cross the Saviour hung
Let all the earth, all time and space
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 72 hymnals Lyrics: Let all the earth, all time and space,
all people, everywhere,
come make the Lord your dwelling place,
come, try and trust God's care.
God, I’ll sing praises to your name,
and in your strength rejoice;
when your salvation is my theme,
exalted be my voice!
You give the angels charge to keep
my feet in all your ways;
they watch my pillow while I sleep,
and guard my waking days.
Their hands shall bear me, lest I fall
and dash against the stones;
are they not servants at your call,
to guard your faithful ones?
"Because you set your love on me,
I'll save you," (says the Lord);
"I'll keep your soul most willingly,
with my all-powerful word.
For those to whom my name is known,
I'll honour them in heaven;
there my salvation shall be shown,
and endless life be given."

I Want a Principle Within
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 224 hymnals Lyrics: 1. I want a principle within
of watchful, godly fear,
A sensibility of sin,
a pain to feel it near.
I want the first approach to feel
of pride or wrong desire,
To catch the wandering of my will,
and quench the kindling fire.
2. From Thee that I no more may stray,
no more Thy goodness grieve,
Grant me the filial awe, I pray,
the tender conscience give.
Quick as the apple of an eye,
O God, my conscience make;
Awake my soul when sin is nigh,
and keep it still awake.
3. Almighty God of truth and love,
to me Thy power impart;
The mountain from my soul remove,
the hardness from my heart.
O may the least omission pain
my reawakened soul,
And drive me to that blood again,
which makes the wounded whole. Used With Tune: GERALD Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1749

Eternal Spirit, God of Truth
Author: Thomas Cotterill Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 110 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Eternal Spirit, God of truth,
our contrite hearts inspire;
ignite a flame of heavenly love
and feed the pure desire.
O come to soothe the sorrowing mind
with guilt and fear oppressed;
O come to bid the dying live
and give the weary rest.
2 Subdue the power of every sin
and make our hearts your throne,
that we in singleness of heart
may worship God alone.
Then with our spirits witness bear,
O Spirit of our God,
that we are children of the Lord,
redeemed through Christ's own blood. Topics: Holy Spirit; Elements of Worship Confession Scripture: Psalm 51:10-12 Used With Tune: FOREST GREEN
