Let Hearts and Tongues Unite

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3635 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Let hearts and tongues unite And loud thanksgivings raise; ’Tis duty, mingled with delight, The Savior’s name to praise. 2. To Him we owe our breath, He took us from the womb, Which else had shut us up in death, And proved an early tomb. 3. When on the breast we hung Our help was in the Lord; ’Twas He first taught our infant tongue To form the lisping word. 4. When in our blood we lay He would not let us die, Because His love had fixed a day To bring salvation nigh. 5. In childhood and in youth His eye was on us still; Though strangers to His love and truth, And prone to cross His will. 6. And since His name we knew, How gracious has He been! What dangers has He led us through, What mercies have we seen! 7. Now through another year Supported by His care; We raise our Ebenezer here, The Lord has helped thus far. 8. Our lot in future years Unable to foresee He, kindly to prevent our fears, Says, Leave it all to Me. 9. Yea, Lord, we wish to cast Our cares upon Thy breast! Help us to praise Thee for the past, And trust Thee for the rest. Languages: English Tune Title: ADVENT (Goss)

The Lord, the Sovereign King

The Lord, the sovereign king, Hath fixed His throne on high; O’er all the heavenly world He rules, And all beneath the sky. 2. Ye angels, great in might, And swift to do His will, Bless ye the Lord, whose voice ye hear, Whose pleasure ye fulfill. 3. Let the bright hosts who wait The orders of their king, And guard His churches when they pray, Join in the praise they sing. 4. While all His wondrous works Through His vast kingdom show Their maker’s glory, thou, my soul, Shalt sing His graces, too. Languages: English Tune Title: ADVENT (Goss)

No Distant Lord Have I

Brother in joy and pain, Bone of my bone was He; More intimate and closer still— He dwells Himself in me. 3. I need not journey far This dearest Friend to see; Companionship is always mine; He makes His home with me. Languages: English Tune Title: ADVENT (Goss)

When, Overwhelmed with Grief

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7334 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. When, overwhelmed with grief, My heart within me dies, Helpless, and far from all relief, To Heav’n I lift mine eyes. 2. O lead me to the rock That’s high above my head And make the covert of Thy wings My shelter and my shade. 3. Within Thy presence, Lord, For ever I’ll abide; Thou art the tower of my defense, The refuge where I hide. 4. Thou givest me the lot Of those that fear Thy name; If endless life be their reward, I shall possess the same. Languages: English Tune Title: ADVENT (Goss)

Woodford Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #72 (1894) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Not by Thy mighty hand, Thy wondrous works alone, But by the marvels of Thy Word, Thy glory, Lord, is known. 2 Forth from the eternal gates, Thine everlasting home, To sow the seed of truth below, Thou didst vouchsafe to come. 3 And still from age to age, Thou, gracious Lord hast been The bearer forth of goodly seed, The sower still unseen. 4 And Thou wilt come again, And heaven beneath Thee bow, To reap the harvest Thou hast sown, Sower and reaper Thou. 5 Watch, Lord, Thou harvest-field, With Thine unsleeping eye, The children of the kingdom keep To Thy Epihany; 6 That, when in Thy great day, The tares shall severed be, We may be surely gathered in With all Thy saints to Thee. Amen. Topics: The Holy Scriptures Languages: English Tune Title: [Not by Thy mighty hand]

Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [The cross is on our brow]
