Christ All and in All

Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #566 (1844) Topics: Christ All and In All First Line: Ye famishing, naked, and poor Lyrics: 1 Ye famishing, naked, and poor, Distressèd, tormented, forlorn, In Christ is a suitable store, For all that unto him will come; He’s Bread, and the Bread of Life too; Well suited the hungry to fill; Nor one that unto him shall go, But what will approve the Bread well. 2 Yes, he is the true paschal Lamb, Of which all his Israel must eat; Not sodden, but roast in the flame Of Sinai’s most horrible heat. This, this is the true fatted calf The Father gave orders to kill, That prodigals might have enough When feasting on fair Zion’s hill. 3 [The Wine of the Kingdom is Christ, Provided for beggars distressed! Which makes broken hearts to rejoice, When with it the soul is refreshed. He’s Water to cleanse and to heal; The thirsty are welcome to drink; A River that never can fail; A Fountain that never can sink. 4 It always is full to the brim, Of water of life and of peace; From which blessings flow like a stream, As free as the sun runs its race. He’s marrow and fatness as well, A fulness of every good; Nor Gabriel is able to tell, The blessings that in him are stored.] Languages: English

Rejoice, and let Christ be thy song

Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #565 (1844) Topics: Christ All and In All Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, and let Christ be thy song, For he is thy All and in All; He leads my soul safely along, In spite of the world, sin, or thrall; Though poor in myself, yet in him I’ve riches immense and divine; Nor can I be brought guilty in, For Jesus, my Lord, paid the fine. 2 Once I was enveloped in debt, My poor mind was burdened with sin, And strove hard to make matters straight, That I the Lord’s favour might win! But ah! my soul laboured in vain, And only the debt did increase, Which greatly increasèd my pain, And filled me with shame and disgrace. 3 I looked to the law for some help, And hoped it some mercy would show; But O, my soul trembled, and felt The law could but doom me to woe, I saw it too just to forgive; Too holy at sin to connive; Then speechless I stood, as if dead, Nor did I expect a reprieve. 4 But while I stood trembling with fear, The Saviour of sinners came in, Who smiled, and said, “Be of good cheer, I surely will save thee from sin; I’m Jesus, the First and the Last; Thy debts have been chargèd on me – The future, the present, the past – And thou shalt for ever go free.” Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 1:10 Languages: English

He must give it; Hearing ears, and seeing eyes.] 3 [Jesus gives us pure affections, Wills to do what he requires; Makes us follow his directions, And what he commands inspires. All our prayers and all our praises, Rightly offered in his name, He that dictates them is Jesus; He that answers is the same.] 4 When we live on Jesus’ merit, Then we worship God aright, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Then we savingly unite. Hear the whole conclusion of it; Great or good, whate’er we call, God, or King, or Priest, or Prophet, Jesus Christ is All in All. Languages: English

Dependance on Christ alone

Author: Hart Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #182 (1844) Topics: Christ All and In All First Line: If ever it could come to pass Lyrics: 1 If ever it could come to pass, That sheep of Christ might fall away, My fickle, feeble soul, alas! Would fall a thousand times a day; Were not thy love as firm as free, Thou soon would’st take it, Lord, from me. 2 I on thy promises depend; At least I to depend desire; That thou wilt love me to the end, Be with me in temptation’s fire; Wilt for me work, and in me too, And guide me right and bring me through. 3 No other stay have I beside; If these can alter, I must fall; I look to thee to be supplied With life, with will, with power, with all. Rich souls may glory in their store, But Jesus will relieve the poor. Languages: English

Repeat it again, and publish abroad The love of your Saviour; what theme’s so complete? He’ll leave you? No, never! his love is too great. Languages: English

There’s nothing here deserves my joys; There’s nothing like my God.] 3 [In vain the bright, the burning sun Scatters his feeble light; ’Tis thy sweet beams create my noon; If thou withdraw, ’tis night.] 4 [And whilst upon my restless bed, Amongst the shades I roll, If my Redeemer shows his head, ’Tis morning with my soul.] 5 To thee we owe our wealth, and friends, And health, and safe abode; Thanks to thy name for meaner things, But they are not my God. 6 [How vain a toy is glittering wealth, If once compared to thee! Or what’s my safety or my health, Or all my friends to me?] 7 [Were I possessor of the earth, And called the stars my own, Without thy graces and thyself, I were a wretch undone!] 8 Let others stretch their arms like seas, And grasp in all the shore; Grant me the visits of thy face, And I desire no more.
