[Ezr 9:9] O Jerusalem The Blissful
O Jerusalem the blissful, home of gladness yet untold,
Thou whose countless throngs triumphal fill with joy thy street of gold
Graven on thee, new and glorious, they the King’s own Name behold!Many are thy sons, O mother, yon august and shining band!
Gentle peace in all thy borders makes thee glad, O happy land!
Perfect is thy restoration, bright in holiness to stand.Here, a figure of the heavenly, shines our temple, worthier grown
By its richer restoration on the old foundation stone.
With a majesty and beauty to the former house unknown.Lord, we pray Thee, Master Builder, great and holy, enter in,
Fill Thy sanctuary quickly, as our hallowing rites begin,
And Thyself its Consecrator rest for evermore therein.Make Thy servants, though unworthy, temples of Thy grace to be;
Let us not in flesh or spirit prove disloyal unto Thee,
But in dedicated service praise Thy Name adoringly.Make, O royal Priest, Thine altar here henceforth a throne of light,
Ever held in highest honor, and with many a gift made bright,
Ever blessèd, ever peaceful, ever precious in Thy sight.Yea, our hearts, for these Thou judgest, as Thy cleansèd altars bless,
By Thy Spirit’s grace renew us unto perfect holiness,
And the sevenfold gifts from Heaven grant us ever to possess.Now to Thee, through endless ages, O most holy Trinity,
Highest honor, power unmeasured, everlasting glory be;
God for ever and for ever, Three in One, and One in Three.Play source: Cyberhymnal

The Church below her voice doth raise
To join the heavenly throng.Adored be He Who comes to bless
The nations with His love,
To show His truth and righteousness,
And every cloud remove.Blessèd be He Who comes to reign
In Zion’s happy land!
Jerusalem is built again,
And shall forever stand.No more His kingdom shall decay;
No more the temple fall;

Stand up and bless the Lord
Ye people of His choice;
Stand up and bless the Lord your God
With heart and soul and voice.Though high above all praise,
Above all blessing high,
Who would not fear His holy Name,
And laud and magnify?O for the living flame
From His own altar brought,
To touch our lips, our minds inspire,
And wing to heaven our thought!There, with benign regard,
Our hymns He deigns to hear;
Though unrevealed to mortal sense,
Our spirits feel Him near.God is our Strength and Song,
And His salvation ours;
Then be His love in Christ proclaimed
With all our ransomed powers.Stand up and bless the Lord;
The Lord your God adore;
Stand up and bless His glorious Name;
Henceforth forevermore.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Neh 9:6] Lord Our God Alone Is Strong, The
The Lord our God alone is strong;
His hands build not for one brief day;
His wondrous works, through ages long,
His wisdom and His power display.His mountains lift their solemn forms,
To watch in silence o’er the land;
The rolling ocean, rocked with storms,
Sleeps in the hollow of His hand.Beyond the heavens He sits alone,
The universe obeys His nod;
The lightning rifts disclose His throne,
And thunders voice the Name of God.Thou sovereign God, receive this gift
Thy willing servants offer Thee;
Accept the prayers that thousands lift,
And let these halls Thy temple be.And let those learn, who here shall meet,
True wisdom is with reverence crowned,
And science walks with humble feet
To seek the God that faith hath found.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Neh 9:10] Joy Is A Fruit That Will Not Grow
Joy is a fruit that will not grow
In nature’s barren soil;
All we can boast, till Christ we know,
Is vanity and toil.But where the Lord has planted grace;
And made His glories known;
There fruits of heavenly joy and peace
Are found, and there alone.A bleeding Savior seen by faith,
A sense of pard’ning love;
A hope that triumphs over death,
Give joys like those above.To take a glimpse within the veil,
To know that God is mine;
Are springs of joy that never fail,
Unspeakably divine!These are the joys which satisfy,
And sanctify the mind;
Which make the spirit mount on high,
And leave the world behind.No more, believers, mourn your lot,
But if you are the Lord’s;
Resign to them that know Him not,
Such joys as earth affords.Play source: Cyberhymnal

[Isa 63:1] Boundless Salvation
O boundless salvation! deep ocean of love,
O fullness of mercy, Christ brought from above,
The whole world redeeming, so rich and so free,
Now flowing for all men, now flowing for all men,
Now flowing for all men, come, roll over me!My sins they are many, their stains are so deep,
And bitter the tears of remorse that I weep;
But useless is weeping; thou great crimson sea,
Thy waters can cleanse me, thy waters can cleanse me,
Thy waters can cleanse me, come, roll over me!My tempers are fitful, my passions are strong,
They bind my poor soul and they force me to wrong;
Beneath thy blest billows deliverance I see,
O come, mighty ocean, O come, mighty ocean,
O come, mighty ocean, and roll over me!Now tossed with temptation, then haunted with fears,
My life has been joyless and useless for years;
I feel something better most surely would be
If once thy pure waters, if once thy pure waters,
If once thy pure waters would roll over me.O ocean of mercy, oft longing I’ve stood
On the brink of thy wonderful, life giving flood!
Once more I have reachèd this soul cleansing sea,
I will not go back, I will not go back,
I will not go back till it rolls over me.The tide is now flowing, I’m touching the wave,
I hear the loud call of the Mighty to Save;
My faith’s growing bolder, delivered I’ll be;
I plunge ’neath the waters, I plunge ’neath the waters,
I plunge ’neath the waters they roll over me.And now, hallelujah! the rest of my days
Shall gladly be spent in promoting His praise
Who opened His bosom to pour out this sea
Of boundless salvation, of boundless salvation,
Of boundless salvation for you and for me.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Help us, O Jesus, Thou mighty Defender,
Help when the forces of evil appear;
Help us to battle and never surrender,
Help us to conquer, and drive away fear;
Satan is cunning, the prince of deceivers,
Bringing disaster to many believers.Help us, O Jesus, in hours of temptation,
When both our faith and our courage are weak;
Teach us to look to the sign of salvation,
And near Thy cross a new armor to seek;
Then we shall conquer, if Thou wilt befriend us,
Thou wilt prevail and our faith will defend us.Help us, O Jesus, when death shall spread terror,
And our poor eyes are too feeble to see;
Cleanse us and purge us from sin and from error;
That we may blindly in faith cling to Thee;
Help us, O Jesus, we conquer in dying,
Unto the last on Thy mercy relying.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

At the gate.Multitudes hurrying

With the curst tree—
This weary prisoner—

Son of God.Is there no loveliness—

In that lone Figure which
Marks the sky?You Who would love Him, stand,
Gaze at His face;
Tarry awhile in your
Worldly race.As the swift moments fly
Through the blest week,

Let us seek.On the cross lifted up,

Scarred by that agony—
Son of Man.Thorns form Thy diadem,
Rough wood Thy throne,
To Thee Thy outstretched arms
Draw Thine own.Nails hold Thy hands and feet,
While on Thy breast
Sinketh Thy bleeding head
Sore oppressed.Loud is Thy bitter cry,
Rending the night,
As to Thy darkened eyes
Fails the light.Shadows of midnight fall,
Though it is day;
Friends and disciples stand
Far away.Loud scoffs the dying thief,
Mocking Thy woe;
Can this my Savior be
Brought so low?Yes, see the title clear,
Written above,
“Jesus of Nazareth,”
Name of love!What, O my Savior dear,
What didst Thou see,
That made Thee suffer and
Die for me?Child of My grief and pain!
From realms above,
I came to lead thee to
Life and love.For thee My blood I shed,
For thee I died;
Safe in thy faithfulness
Now abide.I saw thee wandering,
Weak and at strife;
I am the Way for thee,
Truth and life.Follow My path of pain,
Tread where I trod:
This is the way of peace
Up to God.O I will follow Thee,
Star of my soul!
Through the great dark I press
To the goal.Yes, let me know Thy grief,
Carry Thy cross,
Share in Thy sacrifice,
Gain Thy loss.Daily I’ll prove my love,
Through joy and woe;
Where Thy hands point the way,
There I go.Lead me on year by year,

Creating us that we Thy love might know,

Hast loved us with an everlasting love.Thou madest man immortal at the first,
An image of Thine own eternity;
And when he fell from life, through sin accursed,
And lost his right to the life giving tree,

Thy justice kindness, and Thy kindness just.
Then hear Thy children’s prayer from Heav’n Thy throne;
Father, Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Isa 64:6] Not For Our Sins Alone
Not for our sins alone
Thy mercy, Lord, we sue;
Let fall Thy pitying glance
On our devotions, too,
What we have done for Thee,
And what we think to do.The holiest hours we spend
In prayer upon our knees,
The times when most we deem
The songs of praise will please,
Thou Searcher of all hearts,
Forgiveness pour on these.And all the gifts we bring,
And all the vows we make,
And all the acts of love
We plan for Thy dear sake,
Into Thy pardoning thought,
O God of mercy, take.And most, when we, Thy flock,
Before Thine altar bend,
And strange, bewildering thoughts
With those sweet moments blend,
By Him Whose death we plead,
Good Lord, Thy help extend.Bow down Thine ear and hear!
Open Thine eyes and see!
Our very love is shame,
And we must come to Thee
To make it of Thy grace
What Thou wouldst have it be.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Isa 64:8] Great Master, Touch Us
In the still air the music lies unheard;
In the rough marble beauty hides unseen.
To make the music and the beauty needs
The Master’s touch, the Sculptor’s chisel keen.Great Master, touch us with Thy skillful hands;
Let not the music that is in us die;
Great Sculptor, hew and polish us, nor let
Hidden and lost, Thy form within us lie.Spare not the stroke; do with us what Thou wilt;
Let there be naught unfinished, broken, marred;
Complete Thy purpose that we may become
Thy perfect image—Thou our God and Lord.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Isa 64:8] Have Thine Own Way, Lord
Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Thou art the Potter, I am the clay.
Mold me and make me after Thy will,
While I am waiting, yielded and still.Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Search me and try me, Master, today!
Whiter than snow, Lord, wash me just now,
As in Thy presence humbly I bow.Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Wounded and weary, help me, I pray!
Power, all power, surely is Thine!
Touch me and heal me, Savior divine.Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Hold o’er my being absolute sway!
Fill with Thy Spirit ’till all shall see
Christ only, always, living in me.Play source: Cyberhymnal
Daniel 9:3-19
-
[Dan 9:3] Now Is The Healing Time Decreed
Now is the healing time decreed
For sins of heart, of word or deed,
When we in humble fear record
The wrong that we have done the Lord.Who, always merciful and good,
Has borne so long our wayward mood,
Nor cut us off unsparingly
In our so great iniquity.Therefore with fasting and with prayer,
Our secret sorrow we declare;
With all good striving seek His face,
And lowly hearted plead for grace.Cleanse us, O Lord, from every stain,
Help us the meed of praise to gain,
Till with the angels linked in love
Joyful we tread Thy courts above.Father and Son and Spirit blest,
To Thee be every prayer addrest,
Who art in threefold Name adored,
From age to age, the only Lord.Play source: Cyberhymnal
