God who madest earth and heaven

Author: Arthur Tozer Russell; Henri Alberti; John Christian Jacobi Meter: 8.7.7 Appears in 40 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God who madest earth and heaven, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Who the day and night hast given, Sun and moon and starry host, Those whose mighty hand sustains Earth and all that she contains: 2 Praise to Thee my soul shall render, Who this night hast guarded me; My omnipotent Defender, Who from ill dost set me free; Free from danger, anguish, woe, Free from the infernal foe. 3 Let the night of my transgression With night's darkness pass away: Jesus, into Thy possession I resign myself to-day. In Thy wounds I find relief From my greatest sin and grief. 4 Grant that I may rise this morning, From the lethargy of sin; So my soul, through Thy adorning, Shall be glorious within; And I at the judgment day Shall not be a cast-away. 5 Let my life and conversation Be directed by Thy Word; Lord, Thy constant preservation To thy erring child afford. No where but alone in Thee From all harm can I be free. 6 Wholly to Thy blest protection I commit my heart and mind. Mighty God! to Thy direction Wholly may I be resigned. Lord, my Shield, my Light divine, O accept, and own me Thine! 7 Lord, to me Thine angel sending, Keep me from the subtle foe; From his craft and might defending, Never let Thy wanderer go, Till my final rest be come, And Thine angel bear me home.

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus only

Meter: 8.7.7 Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1 JESUS, Jesus, Jesus only Can my heart-felt longing still; Without Him my soul is lonely, And I wish, what Jesus will. For my heart, which He hath filled, Ever cries: Lord, as Thou wilt. 2 One it is for whom I'm living, Whom I'm loving faithfully; Jesus, unto whom I'm giving What in love He gave to me. Jesus' blood hides all my guilt; Lord, O lead me as Thou wilt. 3 Seems a thing to me a treasure, Which displeasing is to Thee, Then remove such dangerous pleasure; Give instead what profits me. Let my heart by Thee be stilled, Make me Thine, Lord, as Thou wilt. 4 Grant that always I endeavor Thy good pleasure to fulfill, In me, through me, with me ever, Lord, accomplish Thou Thy will. Let me die, Lord, on Thee built, When, and where, and as Thou wilt. 5 Lord, my praise shall be unceasing, For Thou gav'st Thyself to me, And besides so many a blessing, That I sing now joyfully: Be it unto me, my Shield, As Thou wilt, Lord, as Thou wilt.

Come to Calvary's holy mountain

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.7.7 Appears in 204 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come to Calvary's holy mountain, Sinners, ruined by the Fall; Here a pure and healing fountain Flows to you, to me, to all; In a full perpetual tide, Opened when our Saviour died. 2 Come in poverty and meanness, Come defiled, without, within; From infection and uncleanness, From the leprosy of sin, Wash your robes and make them white; Ye shall walk with God in light. 3 Come in sorrow and contrition, Wounded, impotent, and blind; Here the guilty free remission, Here the troubled peace may find: Health this fountain will restore; He that drinks shall thirst no more. 4 He that drinks shall live for ever; 'Tis a soul-renewing flood: God is faithful; God will never Break His covenant in Blood, Signed when our Redeemer died, Sealed when He was glorified.

All is o'er, the pain, the sorrow

Author: John Moultrie Meter: 8.7.7 Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All is o'er, the pain, the sorrow, Human taunts and Satan's spite; Death shall be despoiled to-morrow Of the prey he grasps to-night; Yet once more, to seal his doom, Christ must sleep within the tomb. 2 Fierce and deadly was the anguish On the bitter Cross He bore; How did soul and body languish, Till the toil of death was o'er! But that toil, so fierce and dread, Bruised and crushed the serpent's head. 3 Close and still the tomb that holds Him, While in brief repose He lies: Deep the slumber that enfolds Him, Veiled awhile from mortal eyes: Slumber such as needs must be After hard-won victory. 4 We this night with plaintive voicing Chant His requiem soft and low; Loftier strains of loud rejoicing From to-morrow's harps shall flow: Death and hell at length are slain, Christ hath triumphed, Christ doth reign.

One there is above all others

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.7 Appears in 684 hymnals Lyrics: 1 One there is above all others, Well deserves the name of Friend. His is love beyond a brother's, Costly, free, and knows no end. They who once His kindness prove, Find it everlasting Love. 2 Which of all our friends, to save us, Could or would have shed his blood? But this Saviour died to have us Reconciled in Him to God: This was boundless Love indeed: Jesus is a Friend in need. 3 When He lived on earth abaséd, Friend of sinners was His name, Now, above all glory raiséd, He rejoices in the same: Still He calls them brethren, friends, And to all their wants attends. 4 O for grace our hearts to soften! Teach us, Lord, at length to love, We, alas! forget too often What a Friend we have above: But when home our souls are brought, We will love Thee as we ought.

Author: Benjamin Schmolk; Miss Winkworth Meter: 8.7.7 Appears in 150 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Open now thy gates of beauty, Zion, let me enter there, Where my soul, in joyful duty Waits for Him who answers prayer; O how blessed is this place, Filled with solace, light, and grace. 2 Yes, my God, I come before Thee. Come Thou also unto me; Where we find Thee and adore Thee, There a heaven on earth must be. To my heart O enter Thou, Let it be Thy temple now. 3 Here Thy praise is gladly chanted, Here Thy seed is duly sown: Let my soul, where it is planted, Bring forth precious sheaves alone. So that all I hear may be Fruitful unto life in me. 4 Thou my faith increase and quicken, Let me keep Thy gift divine, Howsoe'er temptations thicken, May Thy Word still o'er me shine; As my pole-star through my life, As my comfort in my strife. 5 Speak, O Lord, and I will hear Thee; Let Thy will be done indeed; May I undisturbed draw near Thee, While Thou dost Thy people feed; Here of life the fountain flows; Here is balm for all our woes.
