Open wide the gate of heaven

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: Open wide the gate of heaven, Let the glorious Victor in, 50 For to Him alone 'tis given, Who hath quelled the boast of sin-- To ascend the azure height, Girt with an all-conquering might. Night and darkness flew before Him, Sin and death before Him fell; Angel hosts in bliss, adore Him! Who hath spoiled the depths of hell, And ascends the azure height, Girt with an all-conquering might. Ah, the mocking and deriding, Ah, the Cross on which He hung, And the night, God's presence hiding, While the darts of hell were flung,-- Now He mounts the azure height, Girt with an all-conquering might. Hail Him now, His task completed, All He strove for man to win; Victor, Who the foe defeated-- Death, and hell, and vaunting sin, For He mounts the azure height, Girt with an all-conquering might. Jesus, Lord of life undying! From the throne where Thou art set, Heed Thy followers who are sighing, But can ne'er Thy love forget, And beyond the azure height, Raise them by Thy saving might,

As The Hart, With Eager Looks

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 83 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As the hart, with eager looks, Panteth for the water-brooks, So my soul, athirst for Thee, Pants the living God to see; When, O when, with filial fear, Lord, shall I to Thee draw near? 2 Tears my food by night, by day, Grief consumes my strength away; While his craft the tempter plies, "Where is now thy God?" he cries; This would sink me to despair, But I pour soul in prayer. 3 For in happier times I went, Where the multitudes frequent; I, with them, was wont to bring Homage to Thy courts, my King: I, with them, was wont to raise Festal hymns on holy days. 4 Why art thou cast down, my soul? God, thy God, shall make thee whole; Why art thou disquieted? God shall lift thy fallen head; And His countenance benign Be the saving health of thine.

Lord, Thy Children Guide and Keep

Author: William W. How Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 47 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord, Thy children guide and keep, As with feeble steps they press On the pathway rough and steep Through the weary wilderness. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. 2. There are stony ways to tread; Give the strength we sorely lack. There are tangled paths to thread; Light us, lest we miss the track. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. 3. There are sandy wastes that lie Cold and sunless, vast and drear, Where the feeble faint and die; Grant us grace to persevere. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. 4. There are soft and flowery glades Decked with golden fruited trees, Sunny slopes and scented shades; Keep us, Lord, from slothful ease. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. 5. Upward still to purer heights! Onward yet to scenes more blest, Calmer regions, clearer lights, Till we reach the promised rests Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way.

Father, Glorify Thy Son

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Father, glorify Thy Son, Answering His all powerful prayer; Send the Intercessor down— Send that other Comforter, Whom believingly we claim, Whom we ask in Jesus’ name. 2. Then by faith we know and feel Him, the Spirit of truth and grace; With us He vouchsafes to dwell, With us while unseen He stays; All our help and good, we own, Freely flows from Him alone. 3. Wilt Thou not the promise seal, Good and faithful as Thou art, Send the Comforter to dwell Every moment in our heart? Yes, Thou wilt the grace bestow; Christ hath said it shall be so.
