Isaiah 28:1--31:9

• [Isa 28:16] Christ Is Made The Sure Foundation

  Christ is made the sure Foundation, Christ the Head and Cornerstone; Chosen of the Lord, and precious, Binding all the Church in one, Holy Zion’s Help forever, And her Confidence alone. All that dedicated city, Dearly loved of God on high, In exultant jubilation, Pours perpetual melody, God the One in Three adoring In glad hymns eternally. To this temple, where we call Thee, Come, O Lord of Hosts, today; With Thy wonted lovingkindness Hear Thy servants as they pray. And Thy fullest benediction Shed within its walls alway. Here vouchsafe to all Thy servants What they ask of Thee to gain; What they gain from Thee forever With the blessèd to retain, And hereafter in Thy glory Evermore with Thee to reign. Laud and honor to the Father, Laud and honor to the Son, Laud and honor to the Spirit, Ever Three and ever One; Consubstantial, co-eternal, While unending ages run.

• [Isa 28:16] Christ, Of All My Hopes The Ground

  Christ, of all my hopes the Ground; Christ, the Spring of all my joy; Still in Thee may I be found, Still for Thee my powers employ, Still for Thee my powers employ. Let Thy love my heart inflame; Keep Thy fear before my sight; Be Thy praise my highest aim; Be Thy smile my chief delight, Be Thy smile my chief delight. When affliction clouds my sky, And the wintry tempests blow, Let Thy mercy beaming eye Sweetly cheer the night of woe. Sweetly cheer the night of woe. When new triumphs of Thy Name Swell the raptured songs above, May I feel a kindred flame, Full of zeal, and full of love! Full of zeal, and full of love! Life’s best joy, to see Thy praise Fly on wings of Gospel light, Leading on millennial days, Scattering all the shades of night! Scattering all the shades of night! Fountain of overflowing grace, Freely from Thy fullness give; Till I close my earthly race, May I prove it “Christ to live!” May I prove it “Christ to live!” When, with wasting sickness worn, Sinking to the grave I lie, Or, by sudden anguish torn, Startled nature dreads to die, Startled nature dreads to die. Jesus, my redeeming Lord, Be Thou then in mercy near! Let Thy smile of love afford Full relief from all my fear, Full relief from all my fear. Firmly trusting in Thy blood, Nothing shall my heart confound; Safely I shall pass the flood, Safely reach Emmanuel’s ground, Safely reach Emmanuel’s ground. When I touch the blessèd shore, Back the closing waves shall roll; Death’s dark stream shall never more Part from Thee my ravished soul, Part from Thee my ravished soul. Thus, O thus, an entrance give To the land of cloudless sky; Having known it “Christ to live,” Let me know it “gain to die,” Let me know it “gain to die.”

  My heart was oppressed with the load of my sin, And it bent with the weight of its woe; At a touch of His hand all the burden fell off, Do you wonder my loving Him so? Refrain My Savior is precious to me, My Savior is precious to me, And the more He is known by His loved and His own, More precious He’s certain to be. Then He filled me with peace that the world knoweth not, That is with me wherever I go; ’Tis the very same calm that is filling His heart, Do you wonder my loving Him so? Refrain Then He shelters, and blesses, and watches o’er me, Be my pathway the high or the low; I am safe, for His arm is protecting His child, Do you wonder my loving Him so? Refrain Oh, will you not love Him who first lovèd you? Just respond, and His sweetness you’ll know; And never again will you want other love, Nor will wonder my loving Him so. Refrain

• [Isa 28:16] O Lord Of Hosts, Whose Glory Fills

  O Lord of hosts, whose glory fills The bounds of the eternal hills, And yet vouchsafes, in Christian lands, To dwell in temples made with hands; Grant that all we, who here today Rejoicing this foundation lay, May be in very deed Thine own. Built on the precious Cornerstone. Endue the creatures with Thy grace, That shall adorn Thy dwelling place; The beauty of the oak and pine, The gold and silver, make them Thine. To Thee they all belong; to Thee The treasures of the earth and sea; And when we bring them to Thy throne, We but present Thee with Thine own. Endue the hearts that guide with skill, Preserve the hands that work from ill, That we, who these foundations lay, May raise the topstone in its day. Both now and ever, Lord, protect The temple of Thine own elect; Be Thou in them, and they in Thee, O ever blessèd Trinity!

• [Isa 28:16] On This Stone Now Laid With Prayer

  On this stone now laid with prayer, Let Thy church rise, strong and fair; Ever, Lord, Thy Name be known, Where we lay this cornerstone. Let Thy holy Child, who came Man from error to reclaim, And for sinners to atone, With Thee, bless this cornerstone. Let the Spirit from above, That once hovered like a dove O’er the Jordan, hither flown Hover o’er this cornerstone. In the sinner’s troubled breast, In the heart by care oppressed, Let the seeds of truth be sown, Where we’ve laid this cornerstone. Open wide, O God, Thy door, For the outcast and the poor, Who can call no house their own, Where we lay this cornerstone. By wise master builders squared, Here be living stones prepared For the temple near Thy throne, Jesus Christ its Cornerstone.

• [Isa 30:19] How Far From Home?

  How far from home? I asked, as on I bent my steps—the watchman spake: “The long, dark night is almost gone, The morning soon will break. Then weep no more, but speed thy flight, With Hope’s bright star thy guiding ray, Till thou shalt reach the realms of light, In everlasting day.” I asked the warrior on the field; This was his soul inspiring song: “With courage bold, the sword I’ll wield, The battle is not long. Then weep no more, but well endure The conflict, till thy work is done; For this we know, the prize is sure, When victory is won.” I asked again; earth, sea and sun Seemed, with one voice, to make reply: “Time’s wasting sands are nearly run, Eternity is nigh. Then weep no more—with warning tones, Portentous sights are thickening round, The whole creation, waiting, groans, To hear the trumpet sound.” Not far from home! O blessèd thought! The traveler’s lonely heart to cheer; Which oft a healing balm has brought, And dried the mourner’s tear. Then weep no more, since we shall meet Where weary footsteps never roam— Our trials past, our joys complete, Safe in our Father’s home.

• [Isa 30:29] Song Of Heaven And Homeland, A

  Sometimes I hear strange music, Like none e’er heard before, Come floating softly earthward As thro’ Heav’n’s open door: It seems like angel voices, In strains of joy and love, That swell the mighty chorus Around the throne above. Refrain O sweet, celestial music, Heard from a land afar— The song of Heav’n and Homeland, Thro’ doors God leaves ajar! Now soft, and low, and restful, It floods my soul with peace, As if God’s benediction Bade all earth’s troubles cease. Then, grander than the voices Of wind, and wave, and sea— It fills the dome of Heaven With glorious harmony. Refrain This music haunts me ever, Like something heard in dreams— It seems to catch the cadence Of heav’nly winds and streams. My heart is filled with rapture, To think, some day to come, I’ll sing it with the angels— The song of Heav’n and home. Refrain
