Jesus! exalted far on high
Author: Thomas Cotterill Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 35 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Jesus! exalted far on high,
To whom a Name is given--
A Name surpassing every name,
That's known in earth or heaven!
2 Before whose throne shall every knee
Bow down with one accord;
Before whose throne shall every tongue
Confess that Thou art Lord:
3 Jesus, who in the form of God,
Didst equal honor claim;
Yet, to redeem our guilty souls,
Didst stoop to death and shame!
4 O may that mind in us be formed,
Which shone so bright in Thee;
An humble, meek, and lowly mind,
From pride and envy free!
5 May we to others stoop, and learn
To emulate Thy love;
So shall we bear Thine image here,
And share Thy throne above.

Jesus! exalted far on high
Author of good! To Thee we turn
Author: James Merrick Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Author of good! To Thee we turn:
Thine ever-wakeful eye
Alone can all our wants discern,
thy hand alone supply.
2 O let Thy love within us dwell,
Thy fear our footsteps guide!
That love shall vainer love expel,
That fear all fears beside.
3 And since, by passion's force subdued,
Too oft, with stubborn will,
We blindly shun the latent good,
And grasp the specious ill:
4 Not what we wish, but what we want,
Let mercy still supply:
The good, unasked, let mercy grant,
The ill, though asked, deny.

Author of good! To Thee we turn
Shine on our souls, eternal God!
Author: Philp Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 138 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Shine on our souls, eternal God!
With rays of beauty shine;
O let Thy favor crown our days,
And all their round be Thine.
2 Did we not raise our hands to Thee,
Our hands might toil in vain:
Small joy success itself could give,
If Thou Thy Love restrain.
3 With Thee let every week begin,
With Thee each day be spent,
For Thee each fleeting hour improved,
Since each by Thee is lent.
4 Thus cheer us through this toilsome road,
Till all our labors cease;
And heaven refresh our weary souls
With everlasting peace. Topics: Providence; Fifteenth Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: ARMAGH
Shine on our souls, eternal God!
