Watchman, Tell Us of the Night

Author: John Bowring (1792-1872) Hymnal: Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal #592 (1985) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Watchman, tell us of the night what its signs of promise are. Traveler, o’er yon mountain’s height, see that glory beaming star. Watchman, does its beauteous ray aught of joy or hope foretell? Traveler, yes; it brings the day, promised day of Israel. 2 Watchman, tell us of the night, higher yet that star ascends. Traveler, blessedness and light, peace and truth its course portends. Watchman, will its beams alone gild the spot that gave them birth? Traveler, ages are its own; See it bursts o’er all the earth. 3 Watchman, tell us of the night, for the morning seems to dawn. Traveler, darkness takes its flight, doubt and terror are withdrawn. Watchman, let your wanderings cease; hasten to your quiet home. Traveler, lo, the Prince of Peace, lo, the Son of God is come!

Holy, Holy, Holy Lord (Cullinan)

Author: R. Michael Cullinan Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2527 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D First Line: Holy, holy, holy Lord Lyrics: 1. Holy, holy, holy Lord God in Heav’n—on earth adored; Holy Father, Holy Son, Holy Spirit, with Them One. Lord, Creator of all things, God of prophets, priests and kings: When th’appointed time had come, You sent us Your only Son. 2. Send upon our gifts this day Blessings from Your throne, we pray. May Your Spirit be outpoured At this entrance of the Lord. Let this bread and wine become Flesh and Blood of Your dear Son, That we may united be With our Lord eternally. 3. On the night He was betrayed, As the evening sun did fade, Our Lord Jesus Christ took bread, Giving thanks, blessed it and said: This, My Body, is for you, And My Blood—the Cov’nant New. Eat and drink this sacrament; My gift is your nourishment. 4. Jesus Christ, incarnate One, Son of God and Mary’s son, We recall Your humble birth: King of Heav’n and Lord of earth! We recall Your pain and grief, Endless anguish, no relief, When upon that tree You died For the Church, Your chosen Bride. 5. But no grave, the Lord, could hold; Hence the stone away was rolled, When the resurrected Lord Rose so that He might award Victory over death and grave To those whom He came to save. Now in heaven He shall reign ’Til we see Him come again. 6. Send to us Your Spirit, Lord; By His presence be outpoured Grace on grace and love on love— Every blessing from above. Bless Your Church on earth; preserve All her leaders as they serve. Be with all for whom we pray As we intercede this day. 7. Our hearts, longing from within, Ache for freedom from our sin. In Your mercy, hear our cry To be with Your saints on high. God our Father and the Son And the Spirit, with Them One: You we honor and adore With our praises evermore.

Jesus, Lover of My Soul

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3357 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1. Jesus, lover of my soul, let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, while the tempest still is high. Hide me, O my Savior, hide, till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide; O receive my soul at last. 2. Other refuge have I none, hangs my helpless soul on Thee; Leave, ah! leave me not alone, still support and comfort me. All my trust on Thee is stayed, all my help from Thee I bring; Cover my defenseless head with the shadow of Thy wing. 3. Wilt Thou not regard my call? Wilt Thou not accept my prayer? Lo! I sink, I faint, I fall— Lo! on Thee I cast my care; Reach me out Thy gracious hand! While I of Thy strength receive, Hoping against hope I stand, dying, and behold, I live. 4. Thou, O Christ, art all I want, more than all in Thee I find; Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is Thy name, I am all unrighteousness; False and full of sin I am; Thou art full of truth and grace. 5. Plenteous grace with Thee is found, grace to cover all my sin; Let the healing streams abound; make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the fountain art, freely let me take of Thee; Spring Thou up within my heart; rise to all eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERYSTWYTH (Parry)

Wherefore Do the Nations Rage?

Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns to the Living God #2 (2023) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D First Line: Wherefore do the nations rage Lyrics: 1 Wherefore do the nations rage and the people vainly dream that in triumph they can wage war against the King supreme? Christ His Son a scoff they make, and the rulers plotting, say: "Their dominion let us break, let us cast their yoke away." 2 But the Lord will scorn them all, calm He sits enthroned on high; soon His wrath will on them fall, sore displeased He will reply: "Yet according to My will I have set My King to reign, and on Zion's holy hill My Anointed I maintain." 3 This His word shall be made known, This Jehovah's firm decree: Thou art My beloved Son, yea I have begotten Thee. All the earth at Thy request I will give Thee for Thy own; then Thy might shall be confessed and Thy foes be overthrown." 4 Therefore, kings, be wise, give ear; hearken, judges of the earth; learn to serve the Lord with fear, mingle trembling with your mirth. Kiss the Son, lest o'er our way His consuming wrath should break; but supremely blest are they Who in Christ their refuge take.

Hear My Words, O LORD

Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #5 (2018) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D First Line: Hear my words, O LORD my God Lyrics: 1 Hear my words, O LORD my God; listen to my sighs and groans. Hear my cry, my king, my God, I will pray to you alone. When the morning comes, O LORD, you shall hear my pleading cries; I will watch when comes the dawn; I will bring my sacrifice. 2 Surely you are not a God who in evil takes delight; evil shall not dwell with you, nor the proud stand in your sight. Evildoers, LORD, you hate; lying ones will you lay waste. Men who murder and deceive, God, the LORD, abhors and hates. 3 But in your great love will I come into your house of grace. Rev'rent, I will worship there, bowing toward your holy place. Guide me safely, O my LORD, in your perfect righteousness; since my enemies are near, make straight paths before my face. 4 Not one word they say is true; from their heart destruction comes; and their throats are open graves, yet they flatter with their tongues. Make them bear their guilt, O God; let them by their counsels fall; snare them in the schemes they plan, for against you they rebel. 5 Let all those who flee to you find their refuge and be glad. Let them ever sing for joy, ever them protection spread. Those who truly love your name magnify you with their praise. You will bless the righteous, LORD, shielding him with all your grace.
