See Israel's Gentle Shepherd Stand
Author: Joseph Scriven Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 487 hymnals Lyrics: 1 See Israel's gentle Shepherd stand,
With all engaging charms;
Hark, how He calls the tender lambs
And folds them in His arms!
2 Permit them to approach, He cries,
Nor scorn their humble name:
It was to bless such souls as these,
The Lord of angels came.
3 We bring them, Lord, with grateful hearts
And yield them up to Thee,
Joyful that we ourselves are Thine;
Thine let our children be!
Amen.

Radiant beams from Thy holy face,
With the dawn of redeeming grace,

Sing, My Tongue, The Savior's Battle
Author: Edward Caswall; Fortunatus Venantius Meter: 8.7.7.8.7.7 Appears in 41 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the Savior's battle,
Tell His triumph far and wide;
Tell aloud the wondrous story
Of His body crucified;
How upon the cross a victim,
Vanquishing in death, He died.
2 Lo, with gall His thirst He quenches,
See the thorns upon His brow;
Nails His tender flesh are rending;
See, His side is pierced now;
Whence, to cleanse the whole creation,
Streams of blood and water flow.
3 Christ, to Thee with God the Father,
And, O Holy Ghost, to Thee,
Hymn and chant and high thanksgiving,
And unwearied praises be:
Honor, glory and dominion
And eternal victory.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Passion; Processionals and Recessionals Lent Used With Tune: REGENT SQUARE

Sing Praise To God Who Reigns Above

The God of all creation,
The God of pow'r, the God of love,
The God of our salvation;
With healing balm my soul He fills
And ev'ry pain and sorrow stills:
To God all praise and glory!
2 The angel hosts Thy praises sing
Around Thy throne in heaven.
On earth and sea, O mighty King,
All praise to Thee is given.
Let all who 'neath Thy shadow dwell
In hymns of praise Thy wisdom tell:
To God all praise and glory!
3 What God hath wrought to show His might,
He evermore sustaineth.
His eye is o'er us day and night,
His mercy never waneth.
Thro'out His kingdom's wide domain
His works are right, His judgments plain:
To God all praise and glory!
4 I cried to God in my distress,
His mercy heard me calling;
My Savior saw my helplessness
And kept my feet from falling;
For this, Lord, praise and thanks to Thee!
Praise God most high, praise God with me!
To God all praise and glory!
5 Ye, who confess the Savior's name,
To God give praise and glory!
Ye who the Father's might proclaim,
To God give praise and glory!
Let idols under foot be trod!
The Lord is God! The Lord is God!
To God all praise and glory!
6 Thus, all my gladsome way along,
I'll sing aloud Thy praises,
That men may hear the grateful song
My voice unwearied raises;
Be joyful in the Lord, my heart,
Both soul and body, bear your part;
To God all praise and glory! Topics: Praise Used With Tune: SPERATUS

So Fades The Lovely, Blooming Flower
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 137 hymnals First Line: So fades the lovely, blooming flow'r Lyrics: 1 So fades the lovely, blooming flow'r;
Frail, smiling solace of an hour;
So soon our transient comforts fly,
And pleasure only blooms to die.
2 Is there no kind, no healing art
To soothe the anguish of the heart?
Spirit of grace, be ever nigh;
Thy comforts are not made to die.
3 Let gentle patience smile on pain
Till dying hope revives again;
Hope wipes the tear from sorrow's eye,
And faith points upward to the sky.
Amen.

Softly Now The Light Of Day
Author: George W. Doane Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 875 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Softly now the light of day
Fades upon my sight away;
Free from care, from labor free,
Lord, I would commune with Thee.
2 Thou, whose all-pervading eye
Naught escapes, without, within,
Pardon each infirmity,
Open fault and secret sin.
3 Soon for me the light of day
Shall forever pass away;
Then from sin and sorrow free,
Take me, Lord, to dwell with Thee.
4 Thou, who sinless, yet hast known
All of man's infirmity,
Then from Thine eternal throne,
Jesus, look with pitying eye.
Amen. Topics: Evening Used With Tune: WEBER

Soldiers Of Christ, Arise
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 893 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Soldiers of Christ, arise
And put your armor on,
Strong in the strength which God supplies
Thro' his eternal Son;
2 Strong in the Lord of Hosts
And in His mighty pow'r:
Who in the strength of Jesus trusts
Is more than conqueror.
3 Stand then in His great might,
With all His strength endued;
But take, to arm you for the fight,
The panoply of God:
4 That having all things done,
And all your conflicts past,
Ye may o'ercome thro' Christ alone
And stand entire at last.
5 From strength to strength go on;
Wrestle and fight and pray:
Tread all the powers of darkness down
And win the well-fought day.
6 Still let the Spirit cry
In all his soldiers, Come,
Till Christ the Lord descends from high
And takes the conqueror home.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Warfare Used With Tune: DOVER

Songs Of Immortal Praise Belong
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 126 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Songs of immortal praise belong
To my almighty God:
He hath my heart, and He my tongue,
To spread His name abroad,
To spread His name abroad.
2 How great the works His hands hath wrought,
How glorious in our sight!
And men in ev'ry age have sought
His wonders with delight,
His wonders with delight.
3 How most exact is nature's frame,
Th'eternal God, how wise!
His counsels never change the scheme
That His first tho'ts devise,
That His first tho'ts devise.
4 When He thro' Christ redeemed our race,
He fixed His cov'nant sure;
His precious promises of grace
To endless years endure,
To endless years endure.
5 Both time and nature, earth and skies,
His heav'nly skill proclaim;
But they alone are truly wise
Who know in Christ His name,
Who know in Christ His name. Topics: The Means of Grace God Used With Tune: LUETZEN

Songs Of Praise The Angels Sang
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 542 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Songs of praise the angels sang,
Heav'n with alleluias rang,
When Jehovah's work begun,
When He spake and it was done.
2 Songs of praise awoke the morn
When the Prince of Peace was born;
Songs of praise arose when He
Captive led captivity.
3 Heav'n and earth must pass away,
Songs of praise shall crown that day,
God will make new heav'ns and earth,
Songs of praise shall hail their birth.
4 And shall man alone be dumb
Till that glorious kingdom come?
No, the Church delights to raise
Psalms and hymns and songs of praise.
5 Saints below, with heart and voice,
Still in songs of praise rejoice;
Learning here by faith and love,
Songs of praise to sing above.
Amen. Topics: Praise; Processionals and Recessionals General Used With Tune: POSEN

And make our hearts Thy home;
Descend with all Thy gracious pow'r;
O come, great Spirit, come.

Our sinfulness and woe,
And lead us in the paths of life,
Where all the righteous go.

Like sacrificial flame;
Let ev'ry soul an off'ring be
To our Redeemer's name.

The wings of peaceful love,
And let the Church on earth become
Blest as the Church above.
