Church of the United Brethren in Christ (New constitution) -- Hymns; Hymns, English
5 Revive us again; fill each heart with thy love;
May each soul be rekindled with fire from above.
Wm. P. Mackay, 1866.
316 Revive Us Again. 10s & 11s.
_Rejoicing in Christ._
Rejoice and be glad the Redeemer has come!
Go look on his cradle, his cross and his tomb.
Cho.--Sound his praises, tell the story,
Of him who was slain,
Sound his praises, tell with gladness,
He liveth again.
2 Rejoice and be glad: for the blood has been shed;
Redemption is finished, the price has been paid.
3 Rejoice and be glad: for the Lamb that was slain,
O'er death is triumphant, and liveth again.
4 Rejoice and be glad: for our King is on high;
He pleadeth for us on his throne in the sky.
5 Rejoice and be glad: for he cometh again--
He cometh in glory, the Lamb that was slain.
H. Bonar, 1874.
317 Welcome Voice. S.M.
_Going on to Perfection._
I hear thy welcome voice
That calls me, Lord, to thee
For cleansing in thy precious blood
That flowed on Calvary.
Cho.--I am coming, Lord!
Coming now to thee!
Wash me, cleanse me, in the blood
That flowed on Calvary.
2 Tho' coming weak and vile,
Thou dost my strength assure;
Thou dost my vileness fully cleanse,
Till spotless all and pure.
3 'Tis Jesus calls me on
To perfect faith and love,
To perfect hope, and peace, and trust,
For earth and heaven above.
4 'Tis Jesus who confirms
The blessed work within,
By adding grace to welcomed grace,
Where reigned the power of sin.
6 And he the witness gives
To loyal hearts and free,
That every promise is fulfilled,
If faith but brings the plea.
6 All hail, atoning blood!
All hail, redeeming grace!
All hail, the gift of Christ, our Lord,
Our strength and righteousness!
Rev. L. Hartsough.
318 Welcome Voice. S.M.
_Christ the Guide and Counselor._ (688)
Jesus, my truth, my way,
My sure, unerring light,
On thee my feeble steps I stay,
Which thou wilt guide aright.
2 My wisdom and my guide,
My counselor thou art;
Oh, never let me leave thy side,
Or from thy paths depart.
3 Never will I remove
Out of thy hands my cause;
But rest in thy redeeming love,
And hang upon thy cross.
4 Oh, make me all like thee,
Before I hence remove;
Settle, confirm, and 'stablish me--
And build me up in love.
Charles Wesley.
319 Loving Kindness. L.M.
_Loving Kindness._ (699)
Awake, my soul, to joyful lays,
And sing thy great Redeemer's praise;
He justly claims a song from me,
His loving kindness, oh, how free!
2 He saw me ruined in the fall,
Yet loved me notwithstanding all;
He saved me from my lost estate--
His loving kindness, oh, how great!
3 Though numerous hosts of mighty foes--
Though earth and hell my way oppose;
He safely leads my soul along--
His loving kindness, oh, how strong!
4 When trouble, like a gloomy cloud,
Has gathered thick and thundered loud,
He near my soul has always stood--
His loving kindness, oh, how good!
S. Medley, 1787.
