Christian Worship The Agony In Gethsemane. He knelt; the Saviour knelt and prayed,When but his Father’s eyeLooked, through the lonely garden’s shade,On that dread agony:The Lord of high and heavenly birthWas bowed with sorrow unto death.

Christian Worship Pastor, Thou Art From Us Taken Pastor, thou art from us takenIn the glory of thy years,As the oak, by tempests shaken,Falls ere time its verdure sears. Pale and cold we see thee lyingIn God’s temple, once so dear,And the mourner’s bitter sighingFalls unheeded on thine ear. All thy love and zeal, to […]

Christian Worship A Call To Praise. O praise ye the Lord-prepare a new song,And let all his saints in full concert join;With voices united the anthem prolong,And show forth his praises with music divine.

Christian Worship The Lord’s Day. When the worn spirit wants repose,And sighs her God to seek,How sweet to hail the evening’s closeThat ends the weary week! How sweet to hail the early dawnThat opens on the sight,When first that soul-reviving mornBeams its new rays of light! Blest day! thine hours too soon will ceaseYet, while […]
