Blest Jesus! when my soaring thoughts

Author: Ottiwell Heginbotham Hymnal: BWHT1899 #437 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Blest Jesus! when my soaring thoughts O’er all Thy graces rove, How is my soul in transport lost-- In wonder, joy, and love! 2 Not softest strains can charm mine ears, Like Thy belovèd name; Nor aught beneath the skies inspire My heart with equal flame. 3 Where’er I look, my wondering eyes Unnumbered blessings see; But what is life, with all its bliss, If once compared to Thee? 4 When nature faints, around my bed Let Thy bright glories shine; And death shall all his terrors lose In raptures so divine. Amen. Topics: Christ Preciousness of; Fellowship with God Languages: English Tune Title: ARMENIA

Brief life is here our portion

Author: John M. Neale; Bernard of Cluny Hymnal: BWHT1899 #607 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion; Brief sorrow, short-lived care; The life that knows no ending, The tearless life, is there; Oh, happy retribution! Short toil, eternal rest; For mortals, and for sinners, A mansion with the blest! 2 There grief is turned to pleasure,-- Such pleasure as below No human voice can utter, No human heart can know; And after fleshly weakness, And after this world's night, And after storm and whirlwind, Are calm and joy and light. 3 For thee, O dear, dear country! Mine eyes their vigils keep; For very love, beholding Thy happy name they weep: The mention of thy glory Is unction to the breast, And medicine in sickness, And love, and life, and rest. Amen.

Brightest and best of the sons of the morning

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: BWHT1899 #228 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness, and lend us Thine aid; Star of the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. 2 Cold on His cradle the dewdrops are shining; Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall; Angels adore Him in slumber reclining, Maker and Monarch and Saviour of all! 3 Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion, Odors of Edom, and offerings divine, Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest or gold from the mine? 4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation, Vainly with gifts would His favor secure; Richer by far is the heart's adoration, Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. 5 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness, and lend us Thine aid; Star of the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. Amen.

Brightly gleams our banner

Author: Thomas J. Potter Hymnal: BWHT1899 #407 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Brightly gleams our banner, Pointing to the sky, Waving wanderers onward To their home on high. Journeying o'er the desert, Gladly thus we pray, And with hearts united, Take our heavenward way. Refrain: Brightly gleams our banner, Pointing to the sky, Waving wanderers onward To their home on high. 2 Jesus, Lord and Master, At Thy sacred feet, Here with hearts rejoicing See Thy children meet; Often have we left Thee, Often gone astray; Keep us, mighty Saviour, In the narrow way. [Refrain] 3 All our days direct us, In the way we go; Lead us on victorious Over every foe: Bid Thine angels shield us When the storm-clouds lower; Pardon Thou and save us In the last dread hour.

Calm on the listening ear of night

Author: Edmund H. Sears Hymnal: BWHT1899 #217 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Calm on the listening ear of night Come heaven's melodious strains, Where wild Judea stretches far Her silver-mantled plains, Her silver-mantled plains. 2 Celestial choirs, from courts above, Shed sacred glories there, And angels, with their sparkling lyres, Make music on the air, Make music on the air. 3 The joyous hills of Palestine Send back the glad reply, And greet, from all their holy heights, The Day-spring from on high, The Day-spring from on high. 4 O'er the blue depths of Galilee There comes a holier calm, And Sharon waves, in solemn praise, Her silent groves of palm, Her silent groves of palm. 5 "Glory to God!" the sounding skies Aloud with anthems ring; "Peace to the earth, good will to men, From heaven's eternal King! From heaven's eternal King!" Amen. Topics: Angels; Christ First Advent; Christ Day-star; Christmas Languages: English Tune Title: NEWBOLD

Chief of sinners though I be

Author: William McComb Hymnal: BWHT1899 #500 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Chief of sinners though I be, Jesus shed His blood for me; Died that I might live on high, Died that I might never die; As the branch is to the vine, I am His and He is mine. 2 Oh, the height of Jesus' love! Higher than the heavens above, Deeper than the depths of sea, Lasting as eternity; Love that found me,--wondrous thought!-- Found me when I sought Him not! 3 Chief of sinners though I be, Christ is all in all to me; All my wants to Him are known, All my sorrows are His own; Safe with Him from earthly strife,. He sustains the hidden life. Amen. Topics: Christ All in All; Christ Love of; Courage; Trust In Christ Languages: English Tune Title: GUIDE
