All hail the power of Jesus' Name!

Author: Edward Perronet Hymnal: The Hymnal #192a (1916) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics: All hail the power of Jesus' Name! Let angels prostrate fall; Bring forth the royal diadem, And crown Him Lord of all!

Man divine! And crown Him Lord of all! Ye seed of Israel's chosen race, Ye ransomed of the fall, Hail Him who saves you by His grace, And crown Him Lord of all!

To Him all majesty ascribe, And crown Him Lord of all! Languages: English Tune Title: CORONATION

Majestic sweetness sits enthroned

Author: Samuel Stennett Hymnal: The Hymnal #194 (1916) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics: Majestic sweetness sits enthroned Upon the Savior's brow; His head with radiant glories crowned, His lips with grace o'erflow. No mortal can with Him compare, Among the sons of men; Fairer is He than all the fair That fill the heavenly train. He saw me plunged in deep distress, He flew to my relief; For me He bore the shameful cross, And carried all my grief. To Him I owe my life and breath, And all the joys I have; He makes me triumph over death, And saves me from the grave. To heaven, the place of His abode, He brings my weary feet; Shows me the glories of my God, And makes my joys complete. Since from His bounty I receive Such proofs of love divine, Had I a thousand hearts to give, Lord, they should all be Thine. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HORSLEY

By Christ redeemed, in Christ restored

Author: George Rawson Hymnal: The Hymnal #335 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.4 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics: By Christ redeemed, in Christ restored, We keep the memory adored, And show the death of our dear Lord, Until he come. His Body broken in our stead Is here, in this memorial bread; And so our feeble love is fed, Until he come. His fearful drops of agony, His Life-blood shed for us we see: The wine shall tell the mystery, Until he come. And thus that dark betrayal night, With the last Advent we unite The shame, the glory, by this rite, Until he come. Until the trump of God be heard, Until the ancient graves be stirred, And with the great commanding word, The Lord shall come. 306 O blessèd hope! with this elate, Let not our hearts be desolate, But strong in faith, in patience wait, Until he come!

Jesus shall reign where'er the sun

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Hymnal #480a (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics: Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Doth his successive journeys run; His kingdom stretch from shore to shore, Till moons shall wax and wane no more. To him shall endless prayer be made, And praises throng to crown his head; His Name like sweet perfume shall rise With every morning sacrifice. People and realms of every tongue Dwell on his love with sweetest song; And infant voices shall proclaim Their early blessings on his Name. 438 Blessings abound where'er he reigns; The prisoner leaps to lose his chains, The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blest. Let every creature rise and bring Peculiar honours to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth repeat the loud Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: GALILEE

Author: Francis Pott, 1832-1909 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #37 (2000) Meter: 8.5.8.5.8.4.3 Topics: Years A, B, and C Ascension Day 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. Scripture: Daniel 7:10 Languages: English Tune Title: ANGEL VOICES

At the name of Jesus

Author: Caroline Maria Noel, 1817-1877 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #54a (2000) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Topics: Years A, B, and C Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 At the name of Jesus ev'ry knee shall bow, ev'ry tongue confess him King of glory now: 'tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord, who, from the beginning, was the mighty Word. 2 At his voice creation sprang at once to sight, all the angel faces, all the hosts of light, thrones and dominations, stars upon their way, all the heavenly orders, in their great array. 3 Humbled for a season, to receive a name from the lips of sinners unto whom he came, faithfully he bore it spotless to the last, brought it back victorious, when from death he passed: 4 Bore it up triumphant with its human light, through all ranks of creatures, to the central height, to the throne of Godhead, to the Father's breast; filled it with the glory, of that perfect rest. 5 Name him, Christians, name him, with love strong as death, but with awe and wonder and with bated breath: he is God the Saviour, he is Christ the Lord, ever to be worshipped, trusted, and adored. 6 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue all that is not holy, all that is not true: crown him as your Captain in temptation's hour; let his will enfold you in its light and power. 7 Surely, this Lord Jesus shall return again, with his Father's glory, with his angel train; for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow, and our hearts confess him King of glory now.
