Christian Hymns

Christian Worship Remembrance Of Our Fathers. Great God! beneath whose piercing eyeThe world’s extended kingdoms lie;Whose favoring smile upholds them all,Whose anger smites them, and they fall; We bow before thy heavenly throne;Thy power we see, thy goodness own;But, cherished by thy milder voice,Our bosoms tremble and rejoice. Thy kindness to our fathers shown,Their children’s […]

Christian Worship The Pilgrimage Of Life. Lead us with thy gentle sway,As a willing child is led;Speed us on our forward way,As a pilgrim, Lord, is sped,Who with prayers and helps divineSeeks a consecrated shrine. We are pilgrims, and our goalIs that distant land whose bournIs the haven of the soul;Where the mourners cease to […]

Christian Worship The Christian Race. Awake, our souls, away, our fears;Let every trembling thought be gone;Awake and run the heavenly race,And put a cheerful courage on. True ’tis a strait and thorny road,And mortal spirits tire and faint;But they forget the mighty God,That feeds the strength of every saint. From thee, the overflowing spring,Our souls […]

Christian Worship Abide With Us, For It Is Towards Evening, And The Day Is Far Spent. ‘Tis gone, that bright and orbéd blaze,Fast fading from our wistful gaze;Yon mantling cloud has hid from sightThe last faint pulse of quivering light. Sun of my soul! thou Saviour dear,It is not night if thou be near:Oh may […]

Christian Worship For An Anniversary Meeting Of The Friends Of Peace. Not with the flashing steel-Not with the cannon’s peal,Or stir of drum,But in the bonds of love;Our white flag floats above,Her emblem is the dove,‘Tis thus we come. The laws of Christian light,These are our weapons bright,Our mighty shield;Christ is our leader high,And the […]

Christian Worship Hail! Source Of Light Hail! Source of light, of life, and love,And joys that never end;In whom all creatures live and move:Creator, Father, Friend. All space is with thy presence crowned:Creation owns thy care;Each spot in nature’s ample round,Proclaims that God is there. Attuned to praise be every voice;Let not one heart be […]

Christian Worship Thy Will Be Done. My Father, grant thy presence nighTo bear aloft my sinking soul,When sorrow o’er my pathway hereIn widely whelming waves doth roll.O, teach mine else unguarded heart,The clouds of gloomy doubt to shun,To bow unto thy chastening hand,And meekly say Thy will be done. Though dark to us thy ways […]

Christian Worship Day Unto Day Uttereth Speech. The heavens declare his glory,Their Maker’s skill the skies:Each day repeats the story,And night to night replies.Their silent proclamationThroughout the earth is heard;The record of creation,The page of nature’s word. There, from his bright pavilion,Like eastern bridegroom clad,Hailed by earth’s thousand million,The sun sets forth; right glad,His glorious […]

Christian Worship Public Worship Before Jehovah’s awful throne,Ye nations, bow with sacred joy;Know that the Lord is God alone;He can create, and he destroy. His sovereign power, without our aid,Made us of clay, and formed us men;And when, like wandering sheep we strayed,He brought us to his fold again. We are his people; we his […]

Christian Worship The Lord’s Day Morning. Again the Lord of life and lightAwakes the kindling ray,Unseals the eyelids of the morn,And pours increasing day. O what a night was that which wrappedThe heathen world in gloom!O what a sun which broke, this day,Triumphant from the tomb! This day be grateful homage paid,And loud hosannas sung;Let […]
