The mercy seat
Author: Hugh Stowell Hymnal: Laudes Domini #48 (1890) Topics: Mercy-seat; Mercy-seat First Line: From every stormy wind that blows Lyrics: 1 From every stormy wind that blows,
From every swelling tide of woes,
There is a calm, a sure retreat;
'Tis found beneath the mercy-seat.
2 There is a place where Jesus sheds
The oil of gladness on our heads,
A place than all besides more sweet;
It is the blood-bought mercy-seat.
3 There is a scene where spirits blend,
Where friend holds fellowship with friend;
Though sundered far, by faith they meet,
Around one common mercy-seat.
4 There, there, on eagle wings we soar,
And sense and skin molest no more,
And heaven comes down our souls to greet,
And glory crowns the mercy-seat!
5 Oh! let my hand forget her skill,
My tongue be silent, cold, and still,
This throbbing heart forget to beat,
If I forget the mercy-seat. Languages: English Tune Title: RETREAT

Approach, My Soul, the Mercy Seat
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #451 (2018) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Mercy Seat Lyrics: 1 Approach, my soul, the mercy seat
where Jesus answers prayer;

3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin,
by Satan sorely pressed,
by war without and fears within,

4 Be thou my shield and hiding place,
that, sheltered near thy side,
I may my fierce accuser face,
and tell him thou hast died.
5 O wondrous love! to bleed and die,
to bear the cross and shame,
that guilty sinners, such as I,
might plead thy gracious name!

My voice shall call on Thee.
And ask for strength in death to speak,
"My Saviour died for me."

The woeful deep of sin,
Of evil done in days gone by,
Of evil now within;
3 Out of the deep of fear
And dread of coming shame;
All night till morning watch is near
I plead the precious Name.
4 Lord, there is mercy now,
As ever was, with thee.
Before thy throne of grace I bow;
Be merciful to me.
Amen. Scripture: Nehemiah 9:17 Languages: English Tune Title: SOUTHWELL
Out of the deep I call
Thee we adore, eternal Lord!
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #42 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Mercy-seat Lyrics: 1 Thee we adore, eternal Lord!
We praise Thy name with one accord;
Thy saints, who here Thy goodness see,
Through all the world do worship Thee.
2 To Thee aloud all angels cry,
The heavens and all the powers on high:
Thee, holy, holy, holy King,
Lord God of hosts, they ever sing.
3 Th'apostles join the glorious throng;
The prophets swell th'immortal song;
The martyrs' noble army raise
Eternal anthems to Thy praise.
4 From day to day, O Lord, do we
Highly exalt and honor Thee;
Thy name we worship and adore,
World without end, for evermore.
5 Vouchsafe, O Lord, we humbly pray,
To keep us safe from sin this day;
Have mercy, Lord, we trust in Thee;
O let us ne'er confounded be! Languages: English Tune Title: THE OLD HUNDREDTH
Thee we adore, eternal Lord!
All hail the glorious morn
Author: John Peacock Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #266 (1899) Topics: Mercy Seat Lyrics: 1 All hail the glorious morn
That saw our Saviour rise,
With victory bright adorned,
And triumph in His eyes!
Ye saints, extol your risen Lord,
And sing His praise with sweet accord.
2 Behold the Lamb of God,
The atoning Sacrifice,
Sustains the dreadful load
Of man's iniquities;
Death, sin, and hell, our cruel foes,
All vanquished fell when Jesus rose.
3 The Conqueror ascends
In triumph to the skies:
Celestial hosts attend,
To crown His victories;
Hark! they proclaim His glorious name!
And heaven resounds Immanuel's fame.
4 Now to the throne above
Let every saint draw near;
There dwells incarnate love;
Grace sits triumphant there;
See mercy smile, e'en on that throne
Where once did wrath and justice frown.
Amen.

All hail the glorious morn

From every stormy wind that blows
How charming is the place
Author: Stennett Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #546 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Mercy-Seat Lyrics: 1 How charming is the place
Where my Redeemer God
Unveils the glories of his face,
And shed his love abroad!
2 Not the fairest palaces
To which the great resort
Are once to be compared with this,
Where Jesus holds his court.
3 Here on the mercy-set,
With radiant glory crowned,
Our joyful eyes behold thee sit
And smile on all around.
4 To thee our prayers and cries
Each humble soul presents;
Oh, listen to our broken sighs,
And grant us all our wants.
5 Give me, O Lord, a place
Within thy blest abode,
Among the children of thy grace,
The servants of my God. Scripture: Psalm 27:4-5
