Let angels prostrate fall; Bring forth the royal diadem, And crown him Lord of all. 2 Ye chosen seed of Israel's race, Ye ransomed from the fall, Hail Him who saves you by His grace, And crown Him Lord of all. 3 Hail Him, ye heirs of David's line, Whom David Lord did call; The God incarnate, Man divine: And crown Him Lord of all. 4 Ye Gentile sinners, ne'er forget The wormwood and the gall; Go, spread your trophies at His feet And crown Him Lord of all. 5 Let every kindred, every tribe, On this terrestrial ball, To Him all majesty ascribe, And crown Him Lord of all. 6 O that with yonder sacred throng We at His feet may fall; We'll join the everlasting song, And crown Him Lord of all.

The glories of my God and King, The triumphs of His grace! 2 My gracious Master and my God, Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad The honors of Thy name. 3 Jesus, the Name that charms our fears, That bids our sorrows cease; 'Tis music in the sinner's ears, 'Tis life, and health, and peace. 4 He breaks the power of cancelled sin, He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean; His Blood availed for me. 5 Look unto Him, ye nations; own Your God, ye fallen race; Look, and be saved through faith alone, Be justified by grace. 6 See all your sins on Jesus laid; The Lamb of God was slain: His soul was once an offering made For every soul of man. 7 Glory to God, and praise, and love, Be ever, ever given; By saints below and saints above, The Church in earth and heaven.

Lamb of God! we fall before Thee

Author: Joseph Hart Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Lamb of God, we fall before Thee, Humbly trusting in Thy cross; That alone be all our glory, All things else are only dross. 2 Thee we own a perfect Savior, Only source of all that’s good. Ev'ry grace and ev'ry favor Comes to us through Jesus’ blood. 3 Jesus gives us true repentance, By His Spirit sent from heav’n; Whispers this transporting sentence: "Son thy sins are all forgiven." 4 Faith He grants us to believe it, Grateful hearts His love to prize; Want we wisdom? He must give it; Hearing ears, and seeing eyes. 5 Jesus gives us pure affections, Wills to do what He requires: Makes us follow His directions, And what He commands, inspires. 6 All our prayers, and all our praises, Rightly offered in His name,— He that dictates them is Jesus; He that answers is the same.

And shall we still be slaves

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 And shall we still be slaves, And in our fetters lie, When summoned by a voice divine T'assert our liberty? 2 Did Christ the Saviour bleed, Our freedom to obtain? And shall we trample on His blood, And glory in our chain? 3 Shall we go on to sin, Because His grace abounds; Or crucify the Lord again, And open all His wounds? 4 Forbid it, mighty God! Nor let it e'er be said That those, for whom Thy Son has died, In vice are lost and dead. Used With Tune: ST. THOMAS

Rock of Ages, cleft for me

Author: Augustus M. Toplady Appears in 2,901 hymnals Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee! Let the Water and the Blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save me, Lord, and make me pure. 2 Not the labors of my hands Can fulfil Thy Law's demands: Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears for ever flow, All for sin could not atone: Thou must save and Thou alone! 3 Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to Thy Cross I cling; Naked, come to Thee for dress; Helpless, look to Thee for grace; Foul, I to the Fountain fly; Wash me, Saviour, or I die! 4 While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyelids close in death, When I soar to worlds unknown, See Thee on Thy judgment throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee!

O boundless Love! 5 How can it be, Thou heavenly King, That Thou shouldst us to glory bring; Make slaves the partners of Thy throne, Decked with a never-fading crown? 6 Ah Lord, enlarge our scanty thought, To know the wonders Thou hast wrought; Unloose our stammering tongues, to tell Thy Love immense, unsearchable!

The Spirit's fruits are peace and love

Author: Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D. Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 The Spirit's fruits are peace and love, And purity from heav'n above; Grace, meekness, gentleness, and joy, With goodness, new-born lives employ. 2 The Spirit makes life's pathway plain, Imparts the grace that will sustain; And grace its work in those who show, Who truly to the Spirit sow. 3 They that are Christ's have crucified Their flesh with all its lusts and pride, And seek in truth what they profess, And walk the paths of holiness. 4 Lord, fill with grace our wayward heart, Nor let Thy Spirit from us part; O save us from still hidden sin, And form our nature pure within: 5 That watchful, prayerful, sober, strong, We grow the more as strifes prolong, And of the Spirit reap at last Eternal life, when strife is past.
