Come, Let Us Lift Our Voices High
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 53 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Come, let us lift our voices high,
High as our joys arise,
And join the songs above the sky,
Where pleasure never dies.
2 Jesus, the God that fought and bled,
And conquered when He fell;
That rose, and at His chariot wheels
Dragged all the powers of hell.
3 Jesus, our God, invites us here
To this triumphal feast,
And brings immortal blessings down
For each redeemed guest.
4 The Lord, how glorious is His face!
How kind His smiles appear!
And oh! what melting words He says
To every humble ear.
“For you, the children of My love,
It was for you I died;
Behold My hands, behold My feet,
And look into My side!
“These are the wounds for you I bore,
The tokens of My pains,
When I came down to free your souls
From misery and chains.
“Justice unsheathed its fiery sword,
And plunged it in My heart;
Infinite pangs for you I bore,
And most tormenting smart.
“When hell, and all its spiteful powers,
Stood dreadful in My way,
To rescue those dear lives of yours,
I gave My own away.
5 “But while I bled, and groaned, and died,
I ruined Satan’s throne;
High on My cross I hung, and spied
The monster tumbling down.
6 Now you must triumph at My feast,
And taste My flesh, My blood,
And live eternal ages blest,
For ’tis immortal food.
7 Victorious God! what can we pay
For favors so divine?
We would devote our hearts away
To be for ever Thine.
8 We give Thee, Lord, our highest praise,
The tribute of our tongues;
But themes so infinite as these
Exceed our noblest songs. Used With Tune: ST. ANNE Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1709, Book III

The Rush May Rise
Author: Unknown Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: The rush may rise where waters flow Lyrics: 1 The rush may rise where waters flow,
And flags beside the stream;
But soon their verdure fades and dies
Before the scorching beam.
2 So is the sinner’s hope cut off;
Or, if it transient rise,
’Tis like the spider’s airy web,
From every breath that flies.
3 Fixed on his house, he leans; his house,
And all its props decay:
He holds it fast; but while he holds,
The tottering frame gives way.
4 Fair is his garden, to the sun
His boughs with verdure smile;
And, deeply fixed, his spreading roots
Unshaken stand a while.
5 But forth the sentence flies from Heaven,
That sweeps him from his place;
Which then denies him for its lord,
Nor owns it knew his face.
6 Lo! this the joy of wicked men,
Who Heaven’s high laws despise;
They quickly fall; and in their room,
As quickly others rise.
7 But, for the just, with gracious care,
God will His power employ;
He’ll teach their lips to sing His praise,
And fill their hearts with joy. Used With Tune: ST ANNE

Eternal Sovereign Of The Sky
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 24 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Eternal sovereign of the sky,
And Lord of all below;
We mortals to Thy majesty
Our first obedience owe.
2 Our souls adore Thy throne supreme,
And bless Thy providence,
For magistrates of meaner name,
Our glory and defense.
3 The crowns of British princes shine
With rays above the rest,
Where laws and liberties combine
To make the nation blessed.
4 Kingdoms on firm foundations stand,
While virtue finds reward;
And sinners perish from the land
By justice and the sword.
5 Let Cæsar’s due be ever paid
To Cæsar and his throne;
But consciences and souls were made
To be the Lord’s alone. Used With Tune: ST. ANNE Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1707-9, Book II

Behold What Love, That God Should Give
Author: Ernest Edwin Ryden Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Behold what love, that God should give
To us His only Son,
That all who trust in Him should live
While endless ages run.
2 Behold what love, that God should call
The sons of men His own,
Joint heirs with Christ, the Lord of all,
To an eternal throne.
3 Behold what things He hath prepared
For those who love Him here;
No eye hath seen, no ear hath shared
The glories of that sphere.
4 Thy love, O God, transcends all tho't;
How faint and weak is mine!
Help me to love Thee as I ought,
O give me love like Thine!
Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace God Used With Tune: ST. ANNE
