Thine Arm, O Lord

Author: E. H. Plumptre Hymnal: NCH1929 #70 (1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old Lyrics: 1 Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old, Was strong to heal and save; It triumphed o'er disease and death, O'er darkness and the grave: To Thee they went, the blind, the dumb, The palsied and the lame, The leper with his tainted life, The sick with fevered frame. 2 And lo, Thy touch bro't life and health, Gave speech, and strength, and sight; And youth renewed and frenzy calmed Owned Thee, the Lord of Light: And now, O Lord, be near to bless, Almighty as of yore, In crowded streets, by restless couch, As by Gennesareth's shore. 3 Be Thou our great Deliv'rer still, Thou Lord of life and death; Restore and quicken, soothe and bless With Thine almighty breath. To hands that work and eyes that see Give wisdom's heav'nly lore, That whole and sick, and weak and strong, May praise Thee evermore.

The winged squadrons of the sky Look down with sad and wond'ring eyes To see th' approaching sacrifice. 4 Ride on! ride on in majesty! The last and fiercest strife is nigh; The Father on His sapphire throne Expects His own Anointed Son. 5 Ride on! ride on in majesty! In lowly pomp ride on to die; Bow Thy meek head to mortal pain, Then take, O God, Thy pow'r, and reign. Topics: Jesus Christ Triumphal Entry Languages: English Tune Title: CREATION

My God, My God, O Why Hast Thou?

Hymnal: NCH1929 #72 (1929) First Line: My God, my God, O why hast Thou Lyrics: 1 My God, my God, O why hast Thou In my distress forsaken me? O why so far from giving help, And from my agonizing plea? By day, my God, I cry in vain, By night, yet no relief I gain. 2 Reproached of men, by all despised, A worm and not a man am I; All they that see me laugh in scorn, They nod, shoot out the lip, and cry, "He trusts the Lord, let Him defend And save him since He is his friend." 3 Thou gavest life, Thou mad'st me trust When I was on my mother's breast; From birth dependent on Thy care, Thou art my God, in Thee I rest. Be not far off, for grief is nigh; There's none om whom I can rely. 4 My life like water is poured out; My bones all out of joint do part; And like a shard my strength is dried; Like wax so melted is my heart; My tongue and jaws together cling, And Thou to death my soul dost bring. 5 Like dogs the wicked close me in, Yea, they have pierced my hands and feet, And I may number all my bones; They look and stare who round me meet; My garments 'mong them they divide, And on my robe by lot decide.

Hark, the voice of love and mercy Sounds aloud from Calvary; See, it rends the rocks asunder, Shakes the earth, and veils the sky; "It is finished, It is finished," Hear the dying Savior cry. 2. "It is finished;" oh, what pleasure Do these precious words afford; Heav'nly blessings without measure, Flow to us from Christ the Lord. "It is finished, It is finished!" Saints, the dying words record. 3. Finished, all the types and shadows Of the ceremonial law! Finished all that God has promised; Death and hell no more shall awe: "It is finished, It is finished!" Saints, from hence your comfort draw. 4. Tune your harps anew, ye seraphs! Join to sing the pleasing theme; All on earth, and all in heaven Join to praise Immanuel's name: Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Glory to the bleeding Lamb. Topics: Jesus Christ Passion Languages: English Tune Title: SEGUR

Amazing pity! grace unknown! And love beyond degree! [Chorus] 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut his glories in, When Christ, the mighty Maker, died For man the creature's sin.

Beneath the Cross of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Hymnal: NCH1929 #75 (1929) Meter: Irregular First Line: Beneath the cross of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty Rock Within a weary land, A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way, From the burning of the noon-tide heat, And the burden of the day. 2 Upon that cross of Jesus Mine eye at times can see The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me; And from my smitten heart with tears, Two wonders I confess, - The wonders of His glorious love And my own worthlessness. 3 I take, O cross, thy shadow For my abiding-place; I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of His face; Content to let the world go by, To know no gain nor loss, My sinful self my only shame, My glory all the cross! Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ Cross Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CHRISTOPHER

Author: Sir John Bowring Hymnal: NCH1929 #76 (1929) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory, Tow'ring o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. 2 When the woes of life o'er-take me, Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, Never shall the cross forsake me; Lo! it glows with peace and joy. 3 When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the cross the radiance, streaming, Adds more luster to the day. 4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the cross are sanctified; Peace is there, that knows no measure, Joys that thro' all time abide. Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ Cross Languages: English Tune Title: RATHBUN
