Here, O My Lord, I See You Face to Face

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Voices United #459 (1996) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: liturgical Communion Songs Lyrics: 1 Here, O my Lord, I see you face to face, here would I touch and handle things unseen, here grasp with firmer hand eternal grace, and all my weariness upon you lean. 2 Here I will feed upon the bread of God, here drink with you the royal wine of heaven; here I will lay aside each earthly load, here taste afresh the calm of sin forgiven. 3 This is the hour of banquet and of song; this is the heavenly table for me spread; here let me feast, and feasting, still prolong the fellowship of living wine and bread. 4 Too soon we rise, the symbols disappear. The feast, though not the love, is past and gone: the bread and wine remove, but you are here, nearer than ever, still my shield and sun. 5 Feast after feast thus comes and passes by, yet, passing, points to that glad feast above, giving sweet foretaste of the festal joy, the Lamb’s great bridal feast of bliss and love.

Come, let us join a joyful Tune

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #LI (1791) Topics: liturgical Communion Songs Lyrics: 1 Come, let us join a joyful Tune, To our exalted Lord, Ye Saints on high around his Throne, And we around his Board. 2 While once upon this lower Ground, Weary and faint ye stood, What dear Refreshments here ye found From this immortal Food? 3 The Tree of Life, that near the Throne In Heav'n's high Garden grows, Laden with Grace, bends gently down Its ever smiling Boughs. [4 Hov'ring amongst the Leaves there stands The sweet celestial Dove; And Jesus on the Branches hangs The Banner of his Love.] [5 'Tis a young Heav'n of strange Delight While in his Shade we sit; His Fruit is pleasing to the Sight, And to the Taste as sweet. 6 New Life it spreads through dying Hearts, And cheers the drooping Mind; Vigour and Joy the Juice imparts, Without a Sting behind.] 7 Now let the flaming Weapon stand, And guard all Eden's Trees Ther's ne'er a Plant in all that Land That bears such Fruit as these. 8 Infinite Grace our Souls adore, Whose wond'rous Hand has made This living Branch of sov'reign Pow'r To raise and heal the Dead.

Come see the Pow'r of Christ our King

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #LIII (1791) Topics: liturgical Songs of Response Lyrics: 1 Come see the Pow'r of Christ our King When on the Cross the Saviour hung, His Grace a dying Thief did bring, To own him with his Heart and Tongue. 2 Our Malefactor scorn'd Christ's Name, The other did his Sin reprove; Then said by Faith to God's dear Lamb, "Remember me O Lord above." 3 What noble Faith in him appear'd, That he could trust a dying Lord! He soon the blessed Jesus heard pronounce this sweet reviving Word; 4 "Amen, this Day thy Soul shall be "With me in Paradise above." This made the dying Pris'ner free; These Words were full of boundless Love. 5 What Comfort did this Speech convey, To his poor guilty wretched Mind! When thus he heard the Saviour say, Great Peace the Criminal did find. 6 Thus Jesus Christ forgave the Thierf, And shew'd great Mercy to the Man; So in the midst of Woe and Grief, His Joy and Happiness began. 7 O how he sings the Saviour's Praise, Who took him at the very last, When he his youthful Strength and Days In Satan's Cause had spent and past! 8 Now he adores God's holy Name, And stands before the Saviours Face; And will eternally proclaim The boundless Riches of his Grace!

If you tarry till you're better, You will never come at all; Not the Righteous, Sinners Jesus came to call. 5 Agonizing in the Garden, Lo your Maker prostrate lies! On the bloody Tree behold him, Hear him cry before he dies, "It is finish'd," Sinner, will not this suffice? 6 Lo! th' incarnate God ascended, Pleads the Merit of his Blood; Venture on him, venture freely, Let no other Trust intrude: None but Jesus, Can do helpless Sinners good. 7 Saints and Angels, join'd in Concert, Sing the Praises of the Lamb, While the blissful Seats of Heaven, Sweetly Echo with his Name, Hallelujah! Sinners here may do the same. Languages: English

Disciples of Christ

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #LXVI (1791) Topics: liturgical Songs of Response Lyrics: 1 Disciples of Christ Ye Friends of the Lamb; Attend, and assist In sing his Fame: Eternal Thanksgiving The Faithful should pay, The Living, the Living, As we do this Day. 2 A Body of Clay He humbly put on. And then took away The Sin we had done; And in it endured The Wrath to us due, The Curse we incurred, Our Stripes and our Woe. 3 Not only he dy'd, But also arose; Laid Weakness aside, And over his Foes, (Sin, Death, and the Devil,) He triumph'd, and o'er This World, and all Evil, Dominion and Pow'r. 4 O merciful Lamb, Who sits on the Throne, We bow at thy Name, The Saviour we own, Deserving our Blessing, And Blessing we'll give, Without ever ceasing, So long as we live.

God of my Life, look gently down

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #LXXXV (1791) Topics: liturgical Confession Songs Lyrics: 1 God of my Life, look gently down, Behold the Pains I feel. But I am dumb before thy Throne, Nor dare dispute thy Will. 2 Diseases are thy Servants, Lord, They come at thy Command; I'll not attempt a murm'ring Word, Against thy chast'ning Hand. 3 Yet I may plead with humble Cries, Remove thy sharp Rebukes; My Strength consumes, my Spirit dies, Through thy repeated Strokes. 4 Crush'd as a Moth beneath thy Hand, We moulder to the Dust; Our feeble Pow'rs can ne'er withstand, And all our beauty's lost. [5 This mortal Life decays apace, How soon the Bubble's broke! Adam and all his num'rous Race Are Vanity and Smoke.] 6 I'm but a sojourner below, As all my Father's were; May I be well prepar'd to go, When I the Summons hear. 7 But if my Life be spar'd a while, Before my last remove, Thy Praise shall be my Buis'ness still, And I'll declare thy Love.

I am, But to thy Wounds for Refuge flee: Friend of Sinners, spotless Lamb, Thy Blood was shed for me. 2 Standing now as newly slain, To thee I lift mine Eye; Balm of all my Grief and Pain, Thy Blood is always nigh: Now as yesterday the same, Thou art, and wilt for ever be: Friend of Sinners, spotless Lamb, Thy Blood was shed for me. 3 Nothing have I, Lord to pay, Nor can thy Grace procure; Empty send me not away, For I,thou know'st am poor: Dust and Ashes is my Name, My all is Sin, and Misery: Friend of Sinners, spotless Lamb, Thy Blood was shed for me. 4 No good Word, or Work, or Thought, Bring I to buy thy Grace: Pardon I accept unbought, Thy Proffer I embrace: Coming, as at first I came, To take and not bestow on thee: Friend of Sinners, spotless Lamb, Thy Blood was shed for me. 5 Saviour from thy wounded Side, I never will depart, Here will I my Spirit hide, When I am pure in Heart, Till my Place above I claim, This only shall be all my Plea, Friend of Sinners, spotless Lamb, Thy Blood was shed for me.
