Let all who truly bear

Hymnal: A Pocket Hymn Book #CCXXIII (1791) Topics: Sacramental Lyrics: 1 Let all who truly bear The bleeding Saviour's name, Their faithful hearts with us prepare, And eat the paschal lamb. Our passover was slain, At Salem's hallowed place, Yet we who in our tents remain, Shall gain his largest grace. 2 This eucharistic feast Our every want supplies, And still we by his death are blest, And share his sacrifice. By faith his flesh we eat, Who here his passion shew, And God out of his holy seat Shall all his gifts bestow. 3 Who thus our faith employ His sufferings to record, E'en now we mournfully enjoy Communion with our Lord, As tho' we every one Beneath his cross had stood, And seen him heave, and heard him groan, And felt his gushing blood. 4 O God! 'tis finish'd now! The mortal pang is past! By faith his head we see him bow, And hear him breathe his last! 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. Languages: English

Rock of Israel, cleft for me

Hymnal: A Pocket Hymn Book #CCXXIV (1791) Topics: Sacramental Lyrics: 1 Rock of Israel, cleft for me, For us, for all mankind, See, thy feeblest followers see Who call thy death to mind: Sion is the very land; Us beneath thy shade receive, Grant us in the cleft to stand, And by thy dying live. 2 In this howling wilderness, On Calvary's steep top, Made a curse our souls to bless Thou once was't lifted up; Stricken there by Moses' rod, Wounded with a deadly blow; Gushing streams of life o'erflow'd The thirsty world below. 3 Rivers of salvation still Along the desert roll, Rivers to refresh and heal The fainting sinking soul; Still the fountain of thy blood, Stands for sinners open'd wide, Now, e'en now, my Lord, and God, I wash me in thy side. 4 Now, e'en now we all plunge in, And drink the purple wave, This the antidote of sin, 'Tis this our souls shall save: With the life of Jesus fed, Lo! from strength to strength we rise, Follow'd by our Rock, and led To meet him in the skies.

Who is this that comes from far

Hymnal: A Pocket Hymn Book #CCXXVIII (1791) Topics: Sacramental Lyrics: 1 Who is this that comes from far, Clad in garments dipt in blood? Strong triumphant traveller, Is he man, or, is he God? 2 I that speak in righteousness, Son of God and man I am, Mighty to redeem your race; Jesus is your Saviour's name. 3 Wherefore are thy garments red, Dyed as in a crimson sea? They that in the wine-vat tread, Are not stain'd so much as thee. 4 I the Father's fav'rite Son, Have the dreadful wine-press trod, Borne the vengeful wrath alone, All the fiercest wrath of God.
