To Thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise

Author: William Chatterton Dix Hymnal: LHTC1918 #483 (1917) Tune Title: BISHOPGARTH Lyrics: 1 To Thee, O Lord, our hearts we raise In hymns of adoration, To Thee bring sacrifice of praise With shouts of exultation: Bright robes of gold the fields adorn, The hills with joy are ringing, The valleys stand so thick with corn That even they are singing. 2 And now, on this our festal day, Thy bounteous hand confessing, Upon Thine altar, Lord, we lay The first-fruits of Thy blessing: By Thee the souls of men are fed With gifts of grace supernal; Thou, Who dost give us daily bread, Give us the Bread Eternal. 3 We bear the burden of the day, And often toil seems dreary; But labor ends with sunset ray, And rest is for the weary; May we, the angel-reaping o'er, Stand at the last accepted, Christ's golden sheaves for evermore, To garners bright elected. 4 Oh, blessèd is that land of God, Where saints abide for ever; Where golden fields spread fair and broad, Where flows the crystal river: The strains of all its holy throng With ours to-day are blending; Thrice blessèd is that harvest-song Which never hath an ending. Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons Harvest Languages: English

Angels holy

Author: John Stuart Blackie Hymnal: LHTC1918 #280 (1917) Meter: 4.4.7.8.8.7 Tune Title: BLACKIE Lyrics: 1 Angels holy, High and lowly, Sing the praises of the Lord! Earth and sky, all living nature, Man, the stamp of thy Creator, Praise ye, praise ye, God the Lord! 2 Ocean hoary, Tell His glory, Cliffs, where tumbling seas have roared! Pulse of waters blithely beating, Wave advancing, wave retreating, Praise ye, praise ye, God the Lord! 3 Rock and highland, Wood and island, Crag where eagle’s pride hath soared, Mighty mountains, purple-breasted, Peaks cloud-cleaving, snowy-crested, Praise ye, praise ye, God the Lord! 4 Rolling river, Praise Him ever, From the mountain’s deep vein poured; Silver fountain, clearly gushing, Troubled torrent, madly rushing, Praise ye, praise ye, God the Lord! 5 Praise Him ever, Bounteous Giver! Praise Him, Father, Friend and Lord! Each glad soul its free course winging, Each blithe voice its free song singing, Praise the great and mighty Lord! Amen.

I was made a Christian

Author: John Samuel Jones Hymnal: LHTC1918 #552 (1917) Tune Title: BOHEMIA Lyrics: 1 I was made a Christian When my name was given, One of God’s dear children And an heir of heaven. In the name of Christian I will glory now, Evermore remember My baptismal vow. 2 I must, like a Christian Shun all evil ways, Keep the faith of Jesus, Serve Him all my days. Called to be a Christian, I will praise the Lord, Seek for His assistance So to keep my word. 3 All a Christian’s blessings I will claim for mine; Holy work and worship, Fellowship divine. Father, Son, and Spirit, Give me grace, that I, Still may live a Christian, And a Christian die. Amen. Topics: Hymns for Children Languages: English

Jesus, and shall it ever be

Author: Joseph Grigg; Benjamin Francis Hymnal: LHTC1918 #71 (1917) Tune Title: BRESLAU Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be, A mortal man, ashamed of Thee? Ashamed of Thee, Whom angels praise, Whose glories shine through endless days? 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far Let evening blush to own a star; He sheds the beams of light divine O’er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon Let midnight be ashamed of noon: ’Tis midnight with my soul, till He, Bright Morning Star, bid darkness flee. 4 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heaven depend! No; when I blush, be this my shame, That I no more revere His Name. 5 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may When I’ve no guilt to wash away. No tear to wipe, no good to crave, No fears to quell, no soul to save. 6 Till then--nor is the boasting vain-- Till then I boast a Saviour slain! And O, may this my glory be, That Christ is not ashamed of me. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Lent Languages: English

When I survey the wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LHTC1918 #97a (1917) Tune Title: BRESLAU Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous Cross On which the Prince of Glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the Death of Christ, my God; All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to His Blood. 3 See, from His head, His hands, His feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down! Did e'er such love and sorrow meet, Or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a tribute far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Holy Week Languages: English

O how sweet To be for such a slumber meet; With holy confidence to sing That death hath lost his venomed sting. 3 Asleep in Jesus! peaceful rest, Whose waking is supremely blest; No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour That manifests the Saviour's power. 4 Asleep in Jesus! O, for me May such a blissful refuge be! Securely shall my ashes lie, Waiting the summons from on high. Amen. Topics: The Life Everlasting Death Languages: English

Author: William A. Muhlenberg Hymnal: LHTC1918 #174 (1917) Tune Title: BROCKLESBY Lyrics: 1 Saviour, Who Thy flock art feeding With the Shepherd's kindest care, All the feeble gently leading, While the lambs Thy bosom share; 2 Now, these little ones receiving, Fold them in Thy gracious arm; There, we know, Thy Word believing, Only there secure from harm. 3 Never, from Thy pasture roving, Let them be the lion's prey; Let Thy tenderness, so loving, Keep them all life's dangerous way. 4 Then, within Thy fold eternal Let them find a resting-place, Feed in pastures ever vernal, Drink the rivers of Thy grace.
