I heard the voice of Jesus say

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Church Book #106 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say, Come unto me and rest; Lay down, thou weary one, lay down Thy head upon my breast. I came to Jesus as I was, Weary, and worn, and sad; I found in Him a resting-place, And He has made me glad. 2 I heard the voice of Jesus say, Behold, I freely give The living water; thirsty one, Stoop down, and drink, and live. I came to Jesus and I drank Of that life-giving stream; My thirst was quenched, my soul revived, And now I live in Him. 3 I heard the voice of Jesus say, I am this dark world’s Light; Look unto Me, thy morn shall rise, And all thy day be bright. I looked to Jesus, and I found In Him, my Star, my Sun; And in that Light of life I’ll walk, Till traveling days are done. Languages: English Tune Title: VOX DILECTI

Lord, with glowing heart I'd praise Thee

Author: Francis Scott Key Hymnal: Church Book #108 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Lord, with glowing heart I'd praise Thee For the bliss Thy love bestows, For the pardoning grace that saves me, And the peace that from it flows. Help, O God, my weak endeavor; This dull soul to rapture raise: Thou must light the flame, or never Can my love be warmed to praise. 2 Praise, my soul, the God that sought thee, Wretched wanderer, far astray; Found thee lost, and kindly brought thee From the paths of death away. Praise, with love's devoutest feeling, Him who saw Thy guilt-born fear, And the light of hope revealing, Bade the blood-stained Cross appear. 3 Lord, this bosom's ardent feeling Vainly would my lips express: Low before Thy footstool kneeling, Deign Thy suppliant's prayer to bless. Let thy grace, my soul's chief treasure, Love's pure flame within me raise: And, since words can never measure, Let my life show forth Thy praise. Languages: English Tune Title: ADORATION

God moves in a mysterious way

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #175 (1908) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform; He plants His footsteps in the sea, And rides upon the storm. 2 Deep in unfathomable mines Of never-failing skill He treasures up His bright designs, And works His sov'reign will. 3 Ye fearful saints! fresh courage take: The clouds ye so much dread Are big with mercy, and shall break In blessings on your head. 4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust Him for His grace; Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. 5 His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding ev'ry hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower. 6 Blind unbelief is sure to err, And scan His work in vain; God is his own interpreter, And He will make it plain.

Thou little flock, be not afraid

Author: Johann Michael Altenburg; Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #197 (1908) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Thou little flock, be not afraid, Tho' foes against thee stand arrayed, And ready to destroy thee, Although thy ruin they prepare, And fill thee oft with anxious care: They shall not long annoy thee. 2 Thy cause is God's; this comfort thee, And His, not thine, the vengeance be: Let Him perform His pleasure; The needful help thou shalt obtain, Thee and His word He will sustain, Through Christ, His own dear Treasure. 3 As God is God, and true His word, Fierce Satan and his hellish herd, The world and all their powers, Shall reap but shame beneath His rod: God is with us, and we with God: The vict'ry must be ours.

O for a thousand tongues to sing

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #217 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing My great Redeemer's praise! The glories of my God and King, The triumphs of His grace! 2 My gracious Master and my God, Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad The honors of Thy name. 3 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. 4 He breaks the power of cancelled sin, He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean; His Blood availed for me. 5 Look unto Him, ye nations; own Your God, ye fallen race; Look, and be saved through faith alone, Be justified by grace. 6 See all your sins on Jesus laid; The Lamb of God was slain: His soul was once an offering made For every soul of man. 7 Glory to God, and praise, and love, Be ever, ever given; By saints below and saints above, The Church in earth and heaven.

One there is above all others

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Church Book #220 (1890) Meter: 8.7.7 Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 One there is above all others, Well deserves the name of Friend. His is love beyond a brother's, Costly, free, and knows no end. They who once His kindness prove, Find it everlasting Love. 2 Which of all our friends, to save us, Could or would have shed his blood? But this Saviour died to have us Reconciled in Him to God: This was boundless Love indeed: Jesus is a Friend in need. 3 When He lived on earth abaséd, Friend of sinners was His name, Now, above all glory raiséd, He rejoices in the same: Still He calls them brethren, friends, And to all their wants attends. 4 O for grace our hearts to soften! Teach us, Lord, at length to love, We, alas! forget too often What a Friend we have above: But when home our souls are brought, We will love Thee as we ought.

Holy Ghost, with light divine

Author: Andrew Reed Hymnal: Church Book #257 (1890) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, with light divine, Shine upon this heart of mine! Chase the shades of night away, Turn the darkness into day. 2 Let me see my Saviour's face, Let me all His beauties trace; Show those glorious truths to me, Which are only known to Thee. 3 Holy Spirit, with power divine, Cleanse this guilty heart of mine: In Thy mercy pity me, From sin's bondage set me free. 4 Holy Spirit, with joy divine Cheer this saddened heart of mine; Yield a sacred, settled peace, Let it grow and still increase. 5 Holy Spirit, all divine, Dwell within this heart of mine; Cast down every idol throne, Reign supreme, and reign alone. 6 See, to Thee I yield my heart; Shed Thy life through every part. A pure temple I would be, Wholly dedicate to Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: GAUNTLETT

Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness

Author: Nicolaus Ludwig, Count von Zinzendorf; John Wesley Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #258 (1908) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness My beauty are, my glorious dress; 'Midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed, With joy shall I lift up my head. 2 When from the dust of death I rise To take my mansion in the skies, E'en then shall this be all my plea— "Jesus hath lived, hath died for me." 3 Bold shall I stand in that great day, For who aught to my charge shall lay? Fully, through Thee, absolved I am From sin and fear, from guilt and shame. 4 This spotless robe the same appears When ruined nature sinks in years; No age can change its glorious hue, The robe of Christ is ever new. 5 And when the dead shall hear Thy voice, Thy banished children shall rejoice; Their beauty this, their glorious dress, Jesus, the Lord our righteousness.
