Father, how wide thy glory shines!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: BWHT1899 #130 (1899) Tune Title: ABRIDGE Lyrics: 1 Father, how wide Thy glory shines! How high Thy wonders rise! Known through the earth by thousand signs, By thousands through the skies. 2 Those mighty orbs proclaim Thy power, Their motions speak Thy skill, And on the wings of every hour We read Thy patience still. 3 When sinners break the Father's low, The dying Son atones; Oh! the dear mysteries of His cross! The triumph of His groans! 4 Now the full glories of the Lamb Adorn the heavenly plains; Sweet cherubs learn Immanuel's name, And try their choicest strains. 5 Oh, may I bear some humble part In that immortal song! Wonder and joy shall tune my heart, And love command my tongue. Amen.

While a bright evidence of grace Through his whole life appears and shines! Amen. Topics: Christians Blessedness of; Faith Blessedness of; Righteousness Blessings of Languages: English

Ten thousand times ten thousand

Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: BWHT1899 #351 (1899) Tune Title: 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

If Jesus be my Friend, If God doth love me well, What matters all my foes intend, Tho' strong they be and fell. Refrain: If God be on my side, If Jesus be my Friend, I'm sure He always will provide, And guide me to the end. 2 Here I can firmly rest, I dare to boast of this That God the Highest and the Best My Friend and Father is. From dangerous snares He saves Where'er He bids me go, He checks the storms and calms the waves, Nor lets aught work me woe. [Refrain] 3 I rest upon the ground Of Jesus and His blood, For 'tis through Him that I have found The True Eternal Good. Nought have I of mine own, Nought in the life I lead, What Christ hath given me, that alone Is worth all love indeed. [Refrain] Amen.
