O Lamb of God, still keep me

Author: James G. Deck Hymnal: The Hymnal #149 (1916) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: O Lamb of God, still keep me Near to thy wounded side! 'Tis only there in safety And peace I can abide. What foes and snares surround me! What lusts and fears within! The grace that sought and found me Alone can keep me clean. 'Tis only in thee hiding, I feel my life secure; Only in thee abiding, The conflict can endure: Thine arm the victory gaineth O'er every hurtful foe; Thy love my heart sustaineth In all its care and woe. Soon shall my eyes behold thee, With rapture, face to face; One half hath not been told me Of all thy power and grace; Thy beauty, Lord, and glory, The wonders of thy love, Shall be the endless story Of all thy saints above. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CHRISTOPHER

Beneath the cross of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Hymnal: The Hymnal #150 (1916) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty rock Within a weary land; A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way, From the burning of the noontide heat, And the burden of the day. Upon the cross of Jesus Mine eyes at times can see The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me; And from my smitten heart with tears These wonders I confess: The wonders of redeeming love, And my own worthlessness. I take, O cross, thy shadow For my abiding place; I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of his face; Content to let the world go by, To know no gain nor loss, My sinful self my only shame, My glory all the cross.

In the cross of Christ I glory

Author: John Bowring Hymnal: The Hymnal #152a (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. When the woes of life o'ertake me, Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, Never shall the cross forsake me: Lo! it glows with peace and joy. When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the cross the radiance streaming, Adds new luster to the day. Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the cross are sanctified; Peace is there that knows no measure, Joys that through all time abide. In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. Languages: English Tune Title: CRUCIFIXION

When I survey the wondrous cross

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Hymnal #154 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the cross of Christ, my God: All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood. See, from his head, his hands, his feet Sorrow and love flow mingled down! Did e'er such love and sorrow meet? Or thorns compose so rich a crown? Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were an offering far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all. Languages: English Tune Title: ROCKINGHAM

Glory be to Jesus

Author: Edward Caswall Hymnal: The Hymnal #162 (1916) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: Glory be to Jesus, Who in bitter pains Poured for me the life-blood From his sacred veins! Grace and life eternal In that blood I find, Blest be his compassion Infinitely kind! Blest through endless ages Be the precious stream, Which from sin and sorrow Doth the world redeem! Abel's blood for vengeance Pleaded to the skies; But the blood of Jesus For our pardon cries. Oft as earth exulting Wafts its praise on high Angel hosts, rejoicing, Make their glad reply. Lift ye then your voices; Swell the mighty flood; Louder still and louder Praise the precious blood. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CASWALL

Behold, the Master passeth by!

Author: W. W. How Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #169a (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: 1 Behold, the Master passeth by! Oh, seest thou not His pleading eye? With low sad voice He calleth thee, "Leave this vain world, and follow Me." 2 O soul, bound down with harrowing care, Hast thou no thought for heaven to spare? From earthly toils lift up thine eye; Behold, the Master passeth by! 3 One heard Him calling long ago, And straightway left all things below, Counting his earthly gain as loss For Jesus and His blessèd cross. 4 That "follow Me" his faithful ear Seemed every day afresh to hear; Its echoes stirred his spirit still, And fired his hope, and nerved his will. 5 God gently calls us every day: Why should we then our bliss delay? He calls to heaven and endless light: Why should we love the dreary night? 6 Praise, Lord, to Thee, for Matthew's call, At which he rose and left his all: Thou, Lord, e'en now art calling me; I will leave all, and follow Thee. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ANGELUS

Jesus lives! thy terrors now

Author: Christian F. Gellert; Frances E. Cox Hymnal: The Hymnal #176 (1916) Meter: 7.8.7.8.4 Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: Jesus lives! thy terrors now Can no longer, death, appall us; Jesus lives! by this we know Thou, O grave, canst not enthrall us. Jesus lives! henceforth is death But the gate of life immortal; This shall calm our trembling breath, When we pass its gloomy portal. Jesus lives! for us he died, Then, alone to Jesus living, Pure in heart may we abide, Glory to our Savior giving. Jesus lives! our hearts know well Naught from us his love shall sever; Life, nor death, nor powers of hell Tear us from his keeping ever. Jesus lives! to him the throne Over all the world is given: May we go where he has gone, Rest and reign with him in heaven. Alleluia! Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ALBINUS

Forty days of Eastertide

Author: Jackson Mason Hymnal: The Hymnal #180 (1916) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: Forty days of Eastertide Thou didst visit oft thine own; Now by glimpses, Lord, descried, Handled now, and proved, and known: Known, most Merciful, yet veiled; Else before the awful sight Surely heart and flesh had failed, Smitten with exceeding light. Risen Master, fain would we, Sharing those unearthly days, Morn and eve, on shore and sea, Watch thy movements, mark thy ways; Catch by faith each glad surprise Of thy footsteps drawing nigh; Hear thy sudden greeting rise, "Peace be to you! It is I!" Secrets of thy kingdom learn, Read the vision open spread, Feel thy word within us burn, Know thee in the broken Bread. So thy glory's skirts beside, Gently led from grace to grace, We thy coming may abide, And adore thee face to face. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: NEWINGTON
