O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Voices United #326 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Proper 5 Year C Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing
my great Redeemer's praise,
the glories of my God and king,
the triumphs of God's grace.
2 Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
that bids our sorrows cease;
'tis music in the sinner's ears,
'tis life and health and peace.
3 He speaks, and listening to his voice,
new life the dead receive,
the mournful broken hearts rejoice,
the humble poor believe.
4 Hear him, you deaf, you voiceless ones,
your tongues again employ;
you blind, behold your Saviour comes,
and leap, you lame, for joy!
5 My gracious Master and my God,
assist me to proclaim,
to spread through all the earth abroad
the honours of your name. Tune Title: AZMON
O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing
Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Voices United #333 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Proper 5 Year C Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling,
joy of heaven, to earth come down,
fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, thou art all compassion,
pure, unbounded love thou art;
visit us with thy salvation,
enter every trembling heart.
2 Come, almighty to deliver,
let us all thy life receive;
suddenly return, and never,
nevermore thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
serve thee as thy hosts above,
pray, and praise thee, without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.
3 Finish then thy new creation;
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee,
changed from glory into glory,
till in heaven we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love, and praise.

Jesus, Priceless Treasure
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Franck Hymnal: Voices United #667 (1996) Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Topics: Proper 5 Year B Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure,
source of purest pleasure,
truest friend to me;
long my heart hath panted,
till it well-nigh fainted,
thirsting after thee.
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb,
I will suffer naught to hide thee,
ask for naught beside thee.
2 In thine arms I rest me;
foes who would molest me
cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
every heart be quaking,
God dispels our fear;
sin and hell in conflict fell
with their heaviest storms assail us:
Jesus will not fail us.
3 Hence, all thoughts of sadness!
For the Lord of gladness,
Jesus, enters in:
those who love the Father,
though the storms may gather,
still have peace within;
yea, whate'er we here must bear,
still in thee lies purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless treasure! Languages: English Tune Title: JESU, MEINE FREUDE
Jesus, Priceless Treasure

with countless gifts of love,
and still is ours today.

through all our life be near us,
with ever-joyful hearts
and blessed peace to cheer us,
and keep us strong in grace,
and guide us when perplexed,
and free us from all ills
in this world and the next.

for all that has been given,
the Son, and Spirit blest
who dwell in highest heaven,
the one eternal God,
whom heaven and earth adore;
for thus it was, is now,
and shall be, evermore.

il nous a protégés
et, jusqu'au dernier jour,
il est notre berger.
2 Loué soit notre Dieu!
Que notre vie entière
tous nous vivions joyeux
sous le regard du Père;
qu'il nous tienne en sa grâce
et nous guide toujours,
nous garde du malheur
par son unique amour.
3 De ce Dieu trois fois saint
qui règne dans la gloire,
chrétiens, empressons-nous
de chanter la victoire;
c'est lui qui nous unit
et nous fait retrouver
le chemin de l'amour
et de la liberté. Languages: English; French Tune Title: NUN DANKET

There's a Wideness in God's Mercy
Author: Frederick William Faber Hymnal: Voices United #271 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Proper 5 Year A Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy
like the wideness of the sea;
there's a kindness in God's justice
which is more than liberty.
2 There is no place where earth's sorrows
are more felt than up in heaven;
there is no place where earth's failings
have such gracious judgement given.
3 There is plentiful redemption
in the blood that Christ has shed;
there is joy for all the members
in the sorrows of the Head.
4 Troubled souls, why will you scatter
like a crowd of frightened sheep?
Foolish hearts, why will you wander
from a love so true and deep?
5 For the love of God is broader
than the measures of the mind,
and the heart of the Eternal
is most wonderfully kind. Tune Title: GOTT WILL'S MACHEN
There's a Wideness in God's Mercy
In Christ There Is No East or West
Author: John Oxenham Hymnal: Voices United #606 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Proper 5 Year B Lyrics: 1 In Christ there is no east or west,
in him no south or north,
but one great family of love
throughout the whole wide earth.
2 In him shall true hearts everywhere
their high communion find;
his service is the golden cord
close binding humankind.
3 Join hands, then, peoples of the faith,
whate'er your race may be;
all children of the living God
are surely kin to me.
4 In Christ now meet both east and west,
in him meet south and north:
all Christ-like souls are one in him
throughout the whole wide earth. Tune Title: MCKEE
In Christ There Is No East or West
How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Voices United #344 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Proper 5 Year B Lyrics: 1 How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds
in a believer's ear!
It soothes the sorrows, heals the wounds,
and drives away all fear.
2 It makes the wounded spirit whole,
and calms the troubled breast;
'tis manna to the hungry soul,
and to the weary, rest.
3 Dear Name! the rock on which I build,
my shield and hiding-place,
my never-failing treasury, filled
with boundless stores of grace.
4 Jesus, my Shepherd, Brother, Friend,
my Prophet, Priest, and King,
my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End,
accept the praise I bring.
5 The effort of my heart is weak,
and cold my warmest thought;
but when I see you whom I seek,
I'll praise you as I ought.

Jesus Calls Us
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: Voices United #562 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Proper 5 Year A First Line: Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult Lyrics: 1 Jesus calls us, o'er the tumult
of our life's wild restless sea,
day by day his clear voice sounding,
saying, "Christian, follow me."
2 Long ago apostles heard it
by the Galilean lake,
turned from home and toil and kindred,
leaving all for Jesus' sake.
3 Jesus calls us from the worship
of the vain world's golden store,
from each idol that would keep us,
saying, "Christian, love me more."
4 In our joys and in our sorrows,
days of toil and hours of ease,
still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
"Christian, love me more than these."
5 Jesus calls us: by your mercies,
Saviour, may we hear your call,
give our hearts to your obedience,
serve and love you best of all. Languages: English Tune Title: GALILEE
