I Know That My Redeemer Lives
Author: Samuel Medley, 1738-1799 Appears in 470 hymnals Topics: Easter 5, Year A Lyrics: 1 I know that my Redeemer lives;
What joy the blest assurance gives!
He lives, he lives, who once was dead;
He lives, my everlasting Head!
2 He lives, to bless me with his love;
He lives, to plead for me above;
He lives, my hungry soul to feed;
He lives, to help in time of need.
3 He lives, and grants me daily breath;
He lives, and I shall conquer death;
He lives, my mansion to prepare;
He lives, to bring me safely there.
4 He lives, all glory to his name;
He lives, my Savior, still the same;
What joy the blest assurance gives;
I know that my Redeemer lives! Scripture: Job 19:25 Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

Join all the glorious names
Author: I. Watts (1674-1748) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 336 hymnals Topics: Easter 5 Going to the Father Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names
of wisdom, love and power,
that ever mortals knew,
that angels ever bore;
all are too poor to speak his worth,
too poor to set my Saviour forth!
2 Great Prophet of my God,
my tongue shall bless your name;
by you the joyful news
of our salvation came:
the joyful news of sins forgiven,
of hell subdued, and peace with heaven.
3 Jesus, my great High Priest,
the Lamb of God who died!
my guilty conscience seeks
no sacrifice beside;
the power of your atoning blood
has won acceptance with my God.
4 Divine almighty Lord,
my Conqueror and my King:
your sceptre and your sword,
your reigning grace I sing:
yours is the power — and so I sit
in willing service at your feet.
5 Now let my soul arise,
and tread the tempter down:
my Captain leads me on
to conquest and a crown;
the child of God shall win the day,
though death and hell obstruct the way. Used With Tune: CROFT'S 136th

Ye choirs of new Jerusalem
Author: St Fulbert of Chartres; Robert Campbell, 1814-1868 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 68 hymnals Topics: Year C Easter 5 Lyrics: 1 Ye choirs of new Jerusalem,
your sweetest notes employ,
the Paschal victory to hymn
in strains of holy joy.
2 For Judah's Lion burst his chains,
and crushed the serpent's head;
and brought with him, from death's domains,
the long-imprisoned dead.
3 From hell's devouring jaws the prey
alone our leader bore;
his ransomed hosts pursue their way
where he hath gone before.
4 Triumphant in his glory now
his sceptre ruleth all:
earth, heav'n and hell before him bow
and at his footstool fall.
5 While joyful thus his praise we sing,
his mercy we implore,
into his palace bright to bring,
and keep us evermore.
6 All glory to the Father be,
all glory to the Son,
all glory, Holy Ghost, to thee,
while endless ages run. Scripture: Genesis 3:14-15 Used With Tune: ST FULBERT

with his true saints alone
the courts of heav'n are filled:

our hopes we place
of present grace
and joys above.
2 O then with hymns of praise
these hallowed courts shall ring;
our voices we will raise
the Three in One to sing;
and thus proclaim
in joyful song,
both loud and long,
that glorious name.
3 Here, gracious God, do thou
for evermore draw nigh;
accept each faithful vow,
and mark each suppliant sigh;
in copious show'r
on all who pray
each holy day
thy blessings pour.
4 Here may we gain from heav'n
the grace which we implore;
and may that grace, once given,
be with us evermore,
until that day
when all the blest
to endless rest
are called away. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:4-6 Used With Tune: HAREWOOD Text Sources: Latin (pre 9th century)

[2 To this temple, where we call you,
come, O Lord of hosts, and stay;
come, with all your loving-kindness;
hear your people as we pray,
and your fullest benediction
shed within these walls today.
3 Here bestow on all your servants
what they seek from you to gain;
what they gain from you, forever
with the blessed to retain;
and hereafter in your glory
evermore with you to reign.]
4 Praise and honour to the Father,
praise and honour to the Son,
praise and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
One in might and One in glory
while unending ages run.

Angel-voices ever singing
Author: Francis Pott, 1832-1909 Meter: 8.5.8.5.8.4.3 Appears in 379 hymnals Topics: Year C Easter 5 Lyrics: 1 Angel-voices ever singing
round thy throne of light,
angel-harps for ever ringing,
rest not day nor night;
thousands only live to bless thee,
and confess thee Lord of might.
2 Thou who art beyond the farthest
mortal eye can see,
can it be that thou regardest
our poor hymnody?
Yes, we know that thou art near us,
and wilt hear us constantly.
3 Yea, we know that thou rejoicest
o'er each work of thine;
thou didst ears and hands and voices
for thy praise design;
craftsman's art and music's measure
for thy pleasure all combine.
4 In thy house, great God, we offer
of thine own to thee;
and for thine acceptance proffer
all unworthily,
hearts and minds and hands and voices
in our choicest psalmody.
5 Honour, glory, might and merit
thine shall ever be,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
blessèd Trinity.
Of the best that thou hast given
earth and heaven render thee.

the joy of all below,
to whom he manifests his love
and grants his name to know.
3 To them the cross with all its shame,
with all its grace is given,
their name an everlasting name,
their joy the joy of heaven.
4 They suffer here with Christ below,
they reign with him above,
their profit and their joy to know
the mystery of his love.
5 The cross he bore is life and health,
though shame and death to him,
his people's hope, his people's wealth,
their everlasting theme. Used With Tune: ST MAGNUS

Author: John Ernest Bode, 1816-1874 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 621 hymnals Topics: Year A Easter 5 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve thee to the end;
be thou for ever near me,
my Master and my friend:
I shall not fear the battle
if thou art by my side,
not wander from the pathway
if thou wilt be my guide.
2 O let me feel thee near me:
the world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
the tempting sounds I hear;
my foes are ever near me,
around me and within;
but, Jesus, draw thou nearer,
and shield my soul from sin.
3 O let me hear thee speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
O speak and make me listen,
thou guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, thou hast promised,
to all who follow thee,
that where thou art in glory
there shall thy servant be;
and, Jesus, I have promised
to serve thee to the end:
O give me grace to follow,
my Master and my friend.
5 O let me see thy foot-marks,
and in them plant mine own;
my hope to follow duly
is in thy strength alone:
O guide me, call me, draw me,
uphold me to the end;
and then in heav'n receive me,
my Savior and my friend. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:25 Used With Tune: WOLVERCOTE

Jesu, lover of my soul
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788r Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 3,222 hymnals Topics: Year A Easter 5 Lyrics: 1 Jesu, lover of my soul,
let me to thy bosom fly,
while the gath'ring waters roll,
while the tempest still is high;
hide me, O my Saviour, hide,
till the storm of life is past;
safe into the haven guide,
O receive my soul at last.
2 Other refuge have I none,
hangs my helpless soul on thee;
leave, ah, leave me not alone,
still support and comfort me.
All my trust on thee is stayed,
all my help from thee I bring;
cover my defenceless head
with the shadow of thy wing.
3 Plenteous grace with thee is found,
grace to cleanse from ev'ry sin;
let the healing streams abound,
make and keep me pure within.
Thou of life the fountain art,
freely let me take of thee,
spring thou up within my heart,
rise to all eternity. Scripture: John 4:14 Used With Tune: HOLLINGSIDE
Jesu, lover of my soul
