Fountain of Never-Ceasing Grace

Author: Augustus Montague Toplady, 1740-1778 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 Fountain of never-ceasing grace, your saints' exhaustless theme, great object of immortal praise, essentially supreme; we bless you for the glorious fruits your incarnation gives, the righteousness which grace imputes, and faith alone receives. 2 In you we have a righteousness by God himself approved; our rock, our sure foundation this, which never can be moved. Our ransom by your death was paid, for all your people giv'n, the law you perfectly obeyed, that they might enter heav'n. 4 As all, when Adam sinned alone, in his transgression died, so by the righteousness of One are sinners justified; we to your merit, gracious Lord, With humblest joy submit, again to paradise restored, in you alone complete.

How Vast the Benefits Divine

Author: Augustus Montague Toplady (1740-1778) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 26 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 How vast the benefits divine which we in Christ possess! We are redeemed from guilt and shame and called to holiness. But not for works which we have done, or shall hereafter do, hath God decreed on sinful men salvation to bestow. 2 The glory, Lord, from first to last, is due to thee alone; aught to ourselves we dare not take, or rob thee of thy crown. Our glorious Surety undertook to satisfy for man, and grace was given us in him before the world began. 3 This is thy will, that in thy love we ever should abide; that earth and hell should not prevail to turn thy word aside. Not one of all the chosen race but shall to heav'n attain, partake on earth the purposed grace and then with Jesus reign.

O grace, thy victory!” Rejoice, your conquering Savior lives, He lives to die no more; And life eternal freely gives, Since He our sorrows bore. 2 Sing praises to our risen Lord; Life, immortality, And lasting bliss are now restored For all, for you and me; Believe the wondrous deed, my soul, Adore His saving Name; Rejoice, ye saints, from pole to pole His love and power proclaim. 3 The Prince of glory bowed His head, Expiring on the Cross; But now the Lord is risen indeed, Is risen and lives for us; Rejoice, and in the dust adore The Lamb for sinners slain; He liveth now and evermore, For evermore to reign.

The earth belongs to God alone

Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 9 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 The earth belongs to God alone and all that it contains; the world and its inhabitants God's steadfast love maintains. 2 The Lord who brought the world to birth laid earth's foundations sure, and firm within the surging seas established them secure. 3 Who, then, are those who shall ascend the holy hill of God? And who is fit to stand within the presence of the Lord? 4 All those whose hands and hearts are clean, with no room in their mind for worthless vanities or vows of a deceitful kind. 5 These are the people who receive a blessing from the Lord, and vindication for their ways from God, their saving God. 6 O God of Jacob, help us all who gather in this place, to seek your presence with us now: we yearn to see your face.

O God, No Longer Hold Thy Peace

Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 8 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1. O God, no longer hold Thy peace, No longer silent be; Thine enemies lift up their head To fight Thy saints and Thee. Against Thine own, whom Thou dost love, Their craft Thy foes employ; They think to cut Thy people off, Thy church they would destroy. 2. Thine ancient foes, conspiring still, With one consent agree, And they who with Thy people strive Make war, O God, on Thee. O God, who in our fathers’ time Didst smite our foes and Thine, So smite Thine enemies today Who in their pride combine. 3. Make them like dust and stubble blown Before the whirlwind dire, In terror driv’n before the storm Of Thy consuming fire. Confound them in their sin till they To Thee for pardon fly, Till in dismay they, trembling, own That Thou art God Most High. Used With Tune: ST. MATTHEW Text Sources: From The Psalter (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: The United Presbyterian Board of Publication, 1912), number 224

Thou art my Hiding-place, O Lord!

Author: Thomas Raffles Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 111 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Thou art my Hiding-place, O Lord! On Thee I fix my trust, Encouraged by Thy holy Word, A feeble child of dust. I have no argument beside, I urge no other plea; And 'tis enough my Saviour died, My Saviour died for me. 2 When storms of fierce temptation beat, And furious foes assail, My refuge is the mercy-seat, My hope within the veil. From strife of tongues and bitter words My spirit flies to Thee: Joy to my heart the thought affords, My Saviour died for me. 3 'Mid trials heavy to be borne, When mortal strength is vain, A heart with grief and anguish torn, A body racked with pain: Ah, what could give the sufferer rest, Bid every murmur flee, But this, the witness in my breast That Jesus died for me? 4 And when Thy awful voice commands This body to decay, And life, in its last lingering sands, Is ebbing fast away, Then, though it be in accents weak, And faint and tremblingly, O give me strength in death to speak, "My Saviour died for me."

O Spirit of the Living God

Author: Henry Hallam Tweedy Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 18 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 O Spirit of the living God, pure Light and Fire Divine: burn brightly in your church once more, its life and faith refine. Fill it with love and joy and power, with righteousness and peace; till Christ shall dwell in human hearts, and sin and sorrow cease. 2 Blow, Wind of God! With wisdom blow disperse and put to flight the mists of error, clouds of doubt which hide you from our sight. Burn, Winged Fire! Inspire our lips, renew in us your call to preach with zeal your great good news; God's love extends to all. 3 Teach us to utter living words of truth which all may hear, the language all can understand when love speaks loud and clear; Till every nation, age and race shall blend their creeds in one, and all together use their gifts to see your will is done. 4 So shall we know the power of Christ, the strength of love to save, so shall we rise with Christ to life which soars beyond the grave; And earth shall win true holiness, which makes your children whole, and draws us on by grace to reach creation's glorious goal!
