Nearer, my God, to Thee

Author: Sarah F. Adams Hymnal: BWHT1899 #428a (1899) Person Name: Sarah F. Adams Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! E'en though it be a cross That raiseth me; Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 2 Though like the wanderer, The sun gone down, Darkness be over me, My rest a stone: Yet in my dreams I'd be Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 3 There let the way appear, Steps unto heaven; All that Thou sendest me, In mercy given; Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 4 Then with my waking thoughts Bright with Thy praise, Out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise; So by my woes to be Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 5 Or if, on joyful wing Cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, Upward I fly, Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! Amen. Topics: Cross Bearing; Fellowship with God; Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: BETHANY

When all Thy mercies, O my God

Author: Joseph Addison Hymnal: BWHT1899 #108 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Joseph Addison Lyrics: 1 When all Thy mercies, O my God, My rising soul surveys, Transported with the view, I'm lost In wonder, love, and praise. 2 Unnumbered comforts to my soul Thy tender care bestowed, Before my infant heart conceived From whom those comforts flowed. 3 Ten thousand thousand precious gifts My daily thanks employ; Nor is the least a cheerful heart, That tastes those gifts with joy. 4 Through every period of my life Thy goodness I'll pursue; And after death, in distant worlds The glorious theme renew. 5 Through all eternity to Thee A grateful song I'll raise; But, oh, eternity's too short To utter all Thy praise. Amen. Topics: God Mercies of; God Providence of; Praise To God; Providence Languages: English Tune Title: GENEVA

When, rising from the bed of death

How are Thy servants blest, O Lord!

Author: Joseph Addison Hymnal: BWHT1899 #482 (1899) Person Name: Joseph Addison Lyrics: 1 How are Thy servants blest, O Lord! How sure is their defence! Eternal Wisdom is their guide, Their help Omnipotence, Their help Omnipotence. 2 Though by the dreadful tempest tossed High on the broken wave, They know Thou art not slow to hear, Nor impotent to save, Nor impotent to save. 3 The storm is laid, the winds retire, Obedient to Thy will; The sea, that roars at Thy command, At Thy command is still, At Thy command is still. 4 In midst of dangers, fears and death, Thy goodness I'll adore; And praise Thee for Thy mercies past, And humbly hope for more, And humbly hope for more. 5 My life, while Thou preserv'st my life, Thy sacrifice shall be; And oh, may death, when death shall come, Unite my soul to Thee! Unite my soul to Thee! Amen. Topics: Courage; Fear Dispelled; God Our Guide; Trust In God Languages: English Tune Title: SWANWICK

When, wounded sore the stricken soul

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: BWHT1899 #520 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Cecil F. Alexander Lyrics: 1 When, wounded sore the stricken soul Lies bleeding and unbound, One only hand, a piercèd hand, Can heal the sinner's wound. 2 When sorrow swells the laden breast, And tears of anguish flow, One only heart, a broken heart, Can feel the sinner's woe. 3 When penitence has wept in vain Over some foul, dark spot, One only stream, a stream of blood, Can wash away the blot. 4 'Tis Jesus' blood that washes white, His hand that brings relief, His heart that's touched with all our joys, And feeleth for our grief. 5 Lift up Thy bleeding hand, O Lord! Unseal that cleansing tide; We have no shelter from our sin But in Thy wounded side. Amen. Topics: Atonement Sufficient; Trust In Christ Languages: English Tune Title: SAVERY

Ten thousand times ten thousand

Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: BWHT1899 #351 (1899) Person Name: Henry Alford Lyrics: 1 Ten thousand times ten thousand, In sparkling raiment bright, The armies of the ransomed saints Throng up the steeps of light: 'Tis finished, all is finished, Their fight with death and sin: Fling open wide the golden gates, And let the victors in. 2 What rush of hallelujahs Fills all the earth and sky! What ringing of a thousand harps Bespeaks the triumph nigh! Oh, day, for which creation And all its tribes were made! Oh, joy, for all its former woes, A thousand fold repaid! 3 Oh, then what raptured greetings On Canaan's happy shore, What knitting severed friendships up, Where partings are no more! Then eyes with joy shall sparkle, That brimmed with tears of late, Orphans no longer fatherless, Nor widows desolate. 4 Bring near Thy great salvation, Thou Lamb for sinners slain; Fill up the roll of Thine elect, Then take Thy power, and reign; Appear, Desire of nations-- Thine exiles long for home-- Show in the heavens Thy promised sign, Thou Prince and Saviour, come! Amen. Topics: Missions Languages: English Tune Title: ALFORD

Hark! through the courts of heaven

Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: BWHT1899 #384 (1899) Person Name: Henry Alford Lyrics: 1 Hark! through the courts of heaven Angelic voices sound: He that was dead now lives again; He that was lost is found. 2 God of unfailing grace, Send down Thy Spirit now; Oh, raise the lowly soul to hope, And make the lofty bow. 3 In countries far from home, On earthly husks who feed, Back to their Father's house, O Lord, Their wandering footsteps lead. 4 Then at each soul's return, The heavenly harp shall sound; He that was dead now lives gain; He that was lost is found.

Forward! be our watchword

Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: BWHT1899 #542 (1899) Person Name: Henry Alford Lyrics: 1 Forward! be our watchword, Steps and voices joined; Seek the things before us, Not a look behind. Burns the fiery pillar At our army's head; Who shall dream of shrinking, By our captain led? Forward thro' the desert, Thro' the toil and fight; Jordan flows before us, Zion beams with light! 2 Glories upon glories Hath our God prepared, By the souls that love Him One day to be shared: Eye hath not beheld them, Ear hath never heard; Nor of these hath uttered Thought or speech a word: Forward, marching eastward Where the heaven is bright, Till the vail be lifted, Till our faith be sight! 3 To the Father's glory Loudest anthems raise; To the Son and Spirit Echo songs of praise; To the Lord Jehovah, Blessed Three in One, Be by men and angels Endless honor done. Weak are earthly praises, Dull the songs of night; Forward into triumph Forward into Light! Amen.

All is safely gathered in, Ere the winter storms begin: God our Maker doth provide For our wants to be supplied! Come to God's own temple, come, Raise the song of Harvest Home! 2 We ourselves are God's own field, Fruit unto His praise to yield; Wheat and tares together sown, Unto joy or sorrow grown; First the blade, and then the ear, Then the full corn shall appear; Grant, O Harvest-Lord, that we Wholesome grain and pure may be! 3 For the Lord our God shall come, And shall take His harvest home: From His field shall in that day All offenses purge away: Give His angels charge at last In the fire the tares to cast; But the fruitful ears to store In His garner evermore. 4 Then, thou Church Triumphant, come, Raise the song of Harvest Home! All are safely gathered in, Free from sorrow, free from sin: There forever purified, In God's garner to abide; Come, ten thousand angels, come, Raise the glorious Harvest Home! Amen.
