At the Name of Jesus
Author: Caroline Maria Noel, 1817-1877 Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 253 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 At the Name of Jesus
Every knee shall bow,
Ev'ry tongue confess him
King of glory now;
'Tis the Father's pleasure
We should call him Lord,
Who from the beginning
Was the mighty Word.
2 Humbled for a season,
To receive a Name
From the lips of sinners,
Unto whom he came,
Faithfully he bore it
Spotless to the last,
Brought it back victorious,
When through death he passed.
3 Bore it up triumphant,
With its human light,
Through all ranks of creatures,
To the central height,
To the throne of Godhead,
To the Father's breast;
Filled it with the glory
Of that perfect rest.
4 In your hearts enthrone him;
There let him subdue
All that is not holy,
All that is not true:
Crown him as your Captain
In temptation's hour;
Let his will enfold you
In its light and power.
5 Jesus, Lord and Savior,
Shall return again,
With his Father's glory
O'er the earth to reign;
For all wreaths of empire
Meet upon his brow,
And our hearts confess him
King of glory now.

Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer (1840-1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 102 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 "Your kingdom come" -- on bended knee
the passing ages pray;
and faithful souls have yearned to see
on earth that kingdom's day.

not less to God belong,
and for the everlasting right
the silent stars are strong.
3 And lo, already on the hills
the flags of dawn appear.
Gird up your loins, ye prophet souls,
proclaim the day is near:
4 the day in whose clear-shining light
all wrong shall stand revealed,
when justice shall be throned with might,
and every heart be healed:
5 when knowledge, hand in hand with peace,
shall walk the earth abroad --
the day of perfect righteousness,
the promised day of God. Topics: Advent; Justice; Kingdom Used With Tune: IRISH

To You, our King!

May well Your love declare,
From foes and fears at rest,
Protected by Your care.

For this fair land--
Gifts of Your hand--
Our thanks we pay.

Each vale and forest green,
Shine in Your Word's pure light,
And its rich fruits be seen!

Be tuned to praise
And join to raise
A grateful song.

Your great Redeemer own;
Believe, obey, rejoice,
And worship Him alone.
Cast down your pride,
Your sin deplore,
And bow before
The Crucified.

From all its rending tombs
Send forth a glorious band,
A countless throng,

Lord, send thy word, and let it fly
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72:7 Lyrics: 1 Lord, send thy word, and let it fly,
Arm'd with thy Spirit's pow'r,
Ten thousands shall confess its sway,
And bless the saving hour.

The barren wastes shall rise,
With sudden greens, and fruits array'd,
A blooming paradise.
3 True holiness shall strike its root
In each regen'rate heart;
Shall in a growth divine arise,
And heavenly fruits impart.
4 Peace, with her olives crown'd, shall stretch
Her wings from shore to shore;
No trump shall rouse the rage of war,
Nor murd'rous cannon roar.
5 Lord, for those days we wait--those days
Are in thy word foretold;
Fly swifter, sun and stars, and bring
This promis'd age of gold!
6 Amen, with joy divine, let earth's
Unnumber'd myriads cry;
Amen, with joy divine, let heaven's
Unnumber'd choirs reply. Topics: Kingdom and Church of Christ Missionary Hymn; Missionaries
Lord, send thy word, and let it fly
I hate the tempter and his charms
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 48 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics:
I hate the tempter and his charms,
I hate his flatt'ring breath;
The serpent takes a thousand forms
To cheat our souls to death.
He feeds our hopes with airy dreams,
Or kills with slavish fear;
And holds us still in wide extremes,
Presumption or despair.
Now he persuades, "How easy 'tis
To walk the road to heav'n;"
Anon he swells our sins, and cries,
"They cannot be forgiv'n."
[He bids young sinners "yet forbear
To think of God, or death;
For prayer and devotion are
But melancholy breath."
He tells the aged, "they must die,
"And 'tis too late to pray;
In vain for mercy now they cry,
For they have lost their day."]
Thus he supports his cruel throne
By mischief and deceit,
And drags the sons of Adam down
To darkness and the pit.
Almighty God, cut short his power,
Let him in darkness dwell
And that he vex the earth no more,
Confine him down to hell.
