Blest Be Our Everlasting Lord

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 60 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Blest be our everlasting Lord, Our Father, God, and King! Thy sovereign goodness we record, Thy glorious power we sing. 2. By Thee the victory is giv’n; The majesty divine, And strength, and might, and earth, and Heav’n, And all therein, are Thine. 3. The kingdom, Lord, is Thine alone, Who dost Thy right maintain, And high on Thine eternal throne, O’er men and angels reign. 4. Riches, as seemeth good to Thee, Thou dost, and honor, give; And kings their power and dignity Out of Thy hand receive. 5. Thou hast on us the grace bestowed Thy greatness to proclaim; And therefore now thank we our God, And praise Thy glorious name. 6. Thy glorious name and nature’s powers Thou dost to us make known; And all the deity is ours, Through Thy incarnate Son. Used With Tune: ST. BERNARD (Richardson) Text Sources: Short Hymns, 1762

Ye who the Name of Jesus bear

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ye who the Name of Jesus bear, his sacred steps pursue; and let that mind which was in him be also found in you. 2 Though in the form of God he was, his only Son declar'd, nor to be equally ador'd as robb’ry did regard; 3 His greatness he for us abas'd, for us his glory vail'd; in human likeness dwelt on earth, his majesty conceal'd: 4 nor only as a man appears, but stoops a servant low; submits to death, nay, bears the cross, in all its shame and woe. 5 Hence God this gen’rous love to men with honours just hath crown'd, and rais'd the name of Jesus far above all names renown'd: 6 That at this name, with sacred awe, each humble knee should bow of hosts immortal in the skies, and nations spread below: 7 That all the prostrate pow’rs of hell might tremble at his word, and ev’ry tribe, and ev’ry tongue, confess that he is Lord. Scripture: Philippians 2:6-12 Used With Tune: ST BERNARD

Thou hast been favourable, Lord

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou hast been favourable, Lord, to thy beloved land; Jacob’s captivity thou hast recalled with mighty hand. 2 Thou pardoned thy people hast all their iniquities; thou all their trespasses and sins hast covered from thine eyes. 3 Thou hast thine anger all withdrawn, turned from thy furiousness; 4 O God of our salvation, turn and cause thy wrath to cease. 5 Shall thy displeasure thus endure against us without end? Wilt thou to generations all thine anger still extend? 6 That in thee may thy people joy, wilt thou not us revive? 7 Show us thy mercy, Lord, to us do thy salvation give. 8 I’ll hear what God the Lord will speak: to his folk he’ll speak peace, and to his saints; but let them not return to foolishness. 9 Surely to them that fear the Lord is his salvation near; that glory in our land again a dweller may appear. 10 Truth met with mercy, righteousness and peace kiss mutually: 11 truth springs from earth, and righteousness looks down from heaven high. 12 Yea, what is good the Lord shall give; our land shall yield increase: 13 justice, to set us in his steps, shall go before his face.
