Holy Lamb, who Thee confess

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #232 (1917) Topics: Confession Of Christ Lyrics: 1 Holy Lamb, who Thee confess, Followers of Thy holiness, Thee they ever keep in view, Ever ask, "What shall we do?" Governed by Thy only will, All Thy words we would fulfil; Would in all Thy footsteps go, Walk as Jesus walked below. 2 While Thou didst on earth appear, Servant to Thy servants here, Mindful of Thy place above, All Thy life was prayer and love. Such our whole employment be, Works of faith and charity; Works of love on man bestowed, Secret intercourse with God. 3 Early in the temple met, Let us still our Saviour greet; Nightly to the mount repair, Join our praying Pattern there. There by wrestling faith obtain Power to work for God again, Power His image to retrieve, Power, like Thee, our Lord, to live. 4 Vessels, instruments of grace, Pass we thus our happy days 'Twixt the mount and multitude. Doing or receiving good; Glad to pray and labour on, Till our earthly course is run, Till, our sufferings ended, we Bow the head and die like Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: TICHFIELD

Forever be adored, That Name in earth and sky. In which, tho' mortal strength may fail, The saints of God at last prevail! 2 Oh, surely he was blest, With blessedness unpriced, Who taught of God, confessed The Godhead in the Christ! For of Thy Church, Lord, Thou didst own Thy saint a true foundation-stone. 3 Thrice fallen, thrice restored! The bitter lesson learnt, That heart for Thee, O Lord, With triple ardor burnt. The cross he took he laid not down Until he grasped the martyr's crown. 4 Oh bright triumphant faith! Oh courage void of fears! Oh love, most strong in death! Oh penitential tears! By these, Lord, keep us lest we fall, And make us go where Thou shalt call. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [Thou art the Christ, O Lord]

Come, ye that love the Lord

Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #22 (1917) Topics: Confession Of Christ Lyrics: 1. Come, ye that love the Lord, And let your joys be known, Join in a song with sweet accord, While ye surround His throne, Let those refuse to sing Who never knew our God; But servants of the heavenly King May speak their joys abroad. 2. The God that rules on high, That all the earth surveys, That rides upon the stormy sky, And calms the roaring seas; This awful God is ours, Our Father and our Love; He will send down His heavenly powers To carry us above. 3. There we shall see His face, And never, never sin; There, from the rivers of His grace, Drink endless pleasures in; Yea, and before we rise To that immortal state, The thoughts of such amazing bliss Should constant joys create. 4. The men of grace have found Glory begun below; Celestial fruit on earthly ground From faith and hope may grow. Then let our songs abound, And every tear be dry; We're marching through Immanuel's ground, To fairer worlds on high. Languages: English Tune Title: ASCENSION

Come all who truly bear

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #260 (1917) Topics: Confession Of Christ Lyrics: 1 Come, all who truly bear The name of Christ your Lord, His last mysterious supper share, And keep His kindest word. 2 Hereby your faith approve In Jesus crucified; "In memory of My dying love, Do this," He said, and died. 3 Then let us still profess Our Master's honoured name; Stand forth His faithful witnesses, True followers of the Lamb. 4 In proof that such we are, His saying we receive, And thus to all mankind declare We do in Christ believe. 5 Who thus our faith employ, His sufferings to record, Even now we mournfully enjoy Communion with our Lord. 6 We too with Him are dead, And shall with Him arise; The cross on which He bows His head Shall lift us to the skies.
