with me, thy sinful child.

Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence
Author: Gerard Moultrie Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 172 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 6:1-10 Lyrics: 1 Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
and with fear and trembling stand.
Ponder nothing earthly minded,
for with blessing in his hand
Christ our God to earth descending
comes, our homage to demand.

as of old on earth he stood,
Lord of heaven now incarnate
in the body and the blood,
he will give to all the faithful
his own self for heav’nly food.

streams before him on the way,
as the Light of light descending
from the realms of endless day
comes, that pow’rs of hell may vanish,
as the shadows pass away.

cherubim with sleepless eye,
veil their faces to the Presence,
as with ceaseless voice they cry,

Rise up, and give us light.
The Bridegroom is in sight.
Alleluia!
Your lamps prepare and hasten there,
that you the wedding feast may share.”
2 When we hear the heralds singing,
and in our hearts new joy is springing;
we wake, and rise up from our gloom;
for our Friend comes down all-glorious,
the strong in grace, in truth victorious;
our Star is risen, our Light is come!
Now come, O blessed One,
God's own beloved Son,
Alleluia!
Oh, hear the call! Come one, come all,
and follow to the banquet hall!
3 All the heavens and earth adore you,
and saints and angels sing before you,
with harp and cymbal's clearest tone;
gates of gleaming pearl before us
resound as angels sing in chorus
and lead us to your dazzling throne.
No eye has seen that light,
no ear the echoed might
of your glory;
but we rejoice and sing the song,
Alleluia! through ages long. Topics: Gathering; Heritage 16th-Century; Jesus Christ Second Coming of; Jesus Christ Teachings of; Praise; Reign of Christ Used With Tune: WACHET AUF Text Sources: “Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme,” Appendix to Freuden-Spiegel des ewigen Lebens, 1599
