Behold the glories of the Lamb
Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #R65 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Behold the glories of the Lamb
amidst his Father’s throne;
prepare new honours for his name,
and songs before unknown.
2 Lo! elders worship at his feet;
the church adores around,
with vials full of odours rich,
and harps of sweetest sound.
3 These odours are the pray’rs of saints,
these sounds the hymns they raise;
God bends his ear to their requests,
he loves to hear their praise.
4 Who shall the Father’s record search,
and hidden things reveal?
Behold the Son that record takes,
and opens ev’ry seal.
5 Hark how th’ adoring hosts above
with songs surround the throne!
ten thousand thousand are their tongues;
but all their hearts are one.
6 Worthy the Lamb that dy'd, they cry,
to be exalted thus;
Worthy the Lamb, let us reply,
for he was slain for us.
7 To him be pow’r divine ascrib'd,
and endless blessings paid;
salvation, glory, joy, remain
for ever on his head!
8 Thou hast redeem'd us with thy blood,
and set the pris’ners free;
thou mad’st us kings and priests to God,
and we shall reign with thee.
9 From ev’ry kindred, ev’ry tongue,
thou brought’st thy chosen race;
and distant lands and isles have shar'd
the riches of thy grace.
10 Let all that dwell above the sky,
or on the earth below,
with fields, and floods, and ocean’s shores,
to thee their homage show.
11 To Him who sits upon the throne,
the God whom we adore,
and to the Lamb that once was slain,
be glory evermore.

Two Brothers Freely Cast Their Lot
Author: John H. Newman Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6504 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Two brothers freely cast their lot
With David’s royal Son;
The cost of conquest counting not,
They deem the battle won.
2. Brothers in heart, they hope to gain
An undivided joy,
That man may one with man remain,
As boy was one with boy.
3. Christ heard; and willed that James should fall
First prey of Satan’s rage;
John linger out his fellows all,
And die in bloodless age.
4. Now they join hands once more above
Before the Conqueror’s throne!
Thus God grants prayer; but in His love
Makes times and ways His own.
5. All glory to the Father be,
All glory to the Son,
All glory, Holy Ghost, to Thee
While endless ages run. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MAGNUS
Two Brothers Freely Cast Their Lot
Great is the Lord, and greatly he
Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #P48 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Great is the Lord, and greatly he
is to be praised still,
Within the city of our God,
upon his holy hill.
2 Mount Zion stands most beautiful,
the joy of all the land;
the city of the mighty King
upon the north doth stand.
3 The Lord within her palaces
is for a refuge known.
4 For, lo, the kings that gathered were
together by have gone.
5 But when they did behold the same,
they wondering would not stay;
but, being troubled at the sight,
they thence did haste away.
6 Great terror there took hold on them,
with fear possessed they were;
their grief came like a woman’s pain,
when she a child doth bear.
7 Thou Tarshish ships with east wind break’st:
8 as we have heard it told,
so, in the city of the Lord,
our eyes did it behold;
In our God’s city, which his hand
for ever stablish will.
9 We of thy loving-kindness thought,
Lord, in thy temple still.
10 O God, according to thy name,
through all the earth’s thy praise;
and thy right hand, O God, is full
of righteousness always.
11 Because thy judgements are made known,
let Zion mount rejoice;
of Judah let the daughters all
send forth a cheerful voice.
12 Walk about Zion, and go round;
the high towers thereof tell:
13 consider ye her palaces,
and mark her bulwarks well;
That ye may tell posterity.
14 For this God doth abide
our God for evermore; he will
even unto death us guide. Scripture: Psalm 48 Languages: English Tune Title: ST MAGNUS (NOTTINGHAM)

The Head That Once Was Crowned
Author: Thomas Kelly, 1769-1854 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #173 (1978) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: The head that once was crowned with thorns Lyrics: 1 The head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now;
A royal diadem adorns
The mighty victor's brow.
2 The highest place that heav'n affords
Is his by sov'reign right,
The King of kings, and Lord of lords,
And heav'n's eternal light.
3 The joy of all who dwell above,
The joy of all below
To whom he manifests his love,
And grants his name to know;
4 To them the cross, with all its shame,
With all its grace, is giv'n;
Their name, an everlasting name,
Their joy, the joy of heav'n.
5 They suffer with their Lord below:
They reign with him above;
Their profit and their joy to know
The myst'ry of his love.
6 The cross he bore is life and health,
Though shame and death to him;
His people's hope, his people's wealth,
Their everlasting theme!

The Head that Once was Crowned with Thorns
To Thee, whose temple is all space
Author: Alexander Pope Hymnal: Hymns of the Kingdom of God #338 (1910) Lyrics: 1 To Thee, whose temple is all space,
Whose altar earth, sea, skies,
One chorus let all beings raise,
All nature’s incense rise.
2 If I am right, Thy grace impart
Still in the right to stay;
If I am wrong, O teach my heart
To find that better way.
3 What conscience dictates to be done,
Or warns me not to do,
This teach me more than hell to shun
That more than heaven pursue.
4 Save me alike from foolish pride,
Or impious discontent
At aught Thy wisdom hath denied,
Or aught Thy goodness lent.
5 Teach me to feel another’s woe,
To hide the fault I see;
That mercy I to others show,
That mercy show to me.
6 This day be bread and peace my lot;
All else beneath the sun
Thou know’st if best bestowed or not,
And let Thy will be done.
