Author: James Montgomery Appears in 446 hymnals Topics: The Church The Future; Epiphany, Fourth Sunday; Fifth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Hark! the song of Jubilee, Loud as mighty thunders roar, Or the fullness of the sea, When it breaks upon the shore: Hallelujah! for the Lord God Omnipotent shall reign; Hallelujah! let the word Echo round the earth and main. 2 Hallelujah! hark! the sound, From the depths unto the skies. Wakes above, beneath, around, All creation's harmonies; See Jehovah's banner furled, Sheathed His sword; He speaks--'tis done; And the kingdoms of this world Are the kingdoms of His Son. 3 He shall reign from pole to pole With illimitable sway: He shall reign, when like a scroll Yonder heavens have passed away: Then the end;--beneath His rod Man's last enemy shall fall: Hallelujah! Christ in God, God in Christ is all in all. Used With Tune: MENDELSSOHN

Author: C. Wesley Appears in 3,220 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Fifth Sunday after Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Jesus, lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high; Hide me, O my Savior! 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 defenseless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ! art all I want; More than all in Thee I find; Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind! Just and holy is Thy name;, I am all unrighteousness: False and full of sin I am, Thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my 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! Used With Tune: [Jesus lover of my soul]
