Jesus, the Name high over all
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #554 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Minister's Only Business Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the Name high over all
In hell, or earth, or sky;
Angels and men before it fall,
And devils fear and fly.
2 Jesus, the Name to sinners dear--
The Name to sinners given;
It scatters all their guilty fear;
It turns their hell to heaven.
3 Jesus the pris'ner's fetters breaks,
And bruises Satan's head;
Power into strengthless souls he speaks,
And life into the dead.
4 Oh, that the world might taste and see
The riches of his grace;
The arms of love that compass me,
Would all mankind embrace.
5 His only righteousness I show--
His saving truth proclaim:
'Tis all my business here below
To cry--Behold the Lamb!
6 Happy, if with my latest breath
I may but gasp his name;
Preach him to all, and cry, in death,
Behold, behold the Lamb!
Scripture: Genesis 3:8
Jesus, the Name high over all
Savior of men, thy searching eye
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #555 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Minister's Prayer Lyrics: 1 Saviour of men, thy searching eye
Doth all my inmost thoughts descry:
Doth aught on earth my wishes raise,
Or the world's pleasures or its praise?
2 The love of Christ doth me constrain
To seek the wand'ring souls of men;
With cries, entreaties, tears, to save,
To snatch them from the gaping grave.
3 For this let men revile my name--
No cross I shun, I fear no shame;
All hail reproach, and welcome pain!
Only thy terrors, Lord, restrain.
4 My life, my blood, I here present,
If for thy truth they must be spent;
Fulfill thy sov'reign counsel, Lord!
Thy will be done, thy name adored!
5 Give me thy strength, O God of power;
Then let winds blow, or thunders roar,
Thy faithful witness will I be;
'Tis filed, I can do all through thee.
Savior of men, thy searching eye
O Shepherd of the sheep
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #563 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Death of a Minister Lyrics: 1 O Shepherd of the sheep,
High-Priest of things to come,
Who didst in grace Thy servant keep,
And take him safely home;
2 Accept our song of praise
For all his holy care,
His zeal unquench'd, through length of days,
The trials that he bare.
3 On all our Pastors pour
The Spirit of Thy grace;
That, as he won the palm of yore,
So they may run their race:
4 That, when this life is done,
They may with him adore
The ever blesséd Three in One
In bliss forevermore. Languages: English
O Shepherd of the sheep
Shepherd of Israel, bend thine ear
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #570 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Kingdom and Church of Christ Congregational. Seeking a Minister Lyrics: 1 Shepherd of Israel, bend thine ear,
Thy servants' groans indulgent hear;
Perplex'd, distress'd, to thee we cry,
And seek the guidance of thine eye.
2 Thy comprehensive view surveys
Our wandering paths, our trackless ways;
Send forth, O Lord, thy truth and light,
To guide our doubtful footsteps right.
3 With longing eyes, behold, we wait
In suppliant crowds at mercy's gate:
Our drooping hearts, O God, sustain:
Shall Israel seek thy face in vain?
4 O Lord, in ways of peace return,
Nor let thy flock neglected mourn;
May our blest eyes a shepherd see,
Dear to our souls, and dear to thee.
5 Fed by his care, our tongues shall raise
A cheerful tribute to thy praise;
Our children learn the grateful song,
And theirs the cheerful notes prolong. Scripture: Ezra 8:21
