Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing

Author: W. A. Muhlenberg Hymnal: CHRC1920 #51 (1920) Tune Title: AVISON First Line: Sion, the marvelous story be telling Lyrics: Chorus: Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing, Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King! 1 Sion, the marvelous story be telling, The Son of the Highest, How lowly His birth! The brightest archangel is glory excelling, He stoops to redeem thee, He reigns upon earth: [Chorus] 2 Tell how He cometh; from nation to nation The heart-cheering news let the earth echo round: How free to the faithful He offers salvation, His people with joy everlasting are crowned. [Chorus] 3 Mortals, your homage be gratefully bringing, And sweet let the gladsome hosanna arise: Ye angels, the full Alleluia be singing; One chorus resound thro' the earth and the skies. Chorus: Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing, Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King, Messiah is King, Messiah is King. Topics: The Christian Year Christmas Languages: English

Judge eternal, throned in splendour

Author: H. S. Holland Hymnal: CHRC1920 #518 (1920) Tune Title: BAMBERG Lyrics: 1 Judge eternal, throned in splendour, Lord of lords, and King of kings, With Thy living fire of judgment Purge this land of bitter things Solace all its wide dominion With the healing of Thy wings. 2 Still the weary folk are pining For the hour that brings release, And the city's crowded clangour Cries aloud for sin to cease; And the homesteads and the woodlands Plead in silence for their peace. 3 Crown, O God, Thine own endeavour; Cleave our darkness with Thy sword; Feed the faint and hungry heathen With the richness of Thy word; Cleanse the body of this nation Through the glory of the Lord.

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord

Author: J. W. Howe Hymnal: CHRC1920 #200 (1920) Tune Title: BATTLE HYMN Lyrics: 1 Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored; He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword; His truth is marching on. Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on. 2 I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps; They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps; I have read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps; His day is marching on. Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! His day is marching on. 3 I have read a fiery gospel, writ in burnished rows of steel; "As ye deal with My contemners, so with you My grace shall deal;" Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with His heel, Since God is marching on. Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Since God is marching on. 4 He has sounded forth His trumpet that shall never call retreat; He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat; O be swift, my soul, to answer Him; be jubilant, my feet! Our God is marching on. Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Our God is marching on. 5 In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born, across the sea, With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me; As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free! While God is marching on. Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! While God is marching on. Topics: Holy Days National Days Languages: English

Sweet the moments, rich in blessing

Author: W. Shirley Hymnal: CHRC1920 #103 (1920) Tune Title: BATTY Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing, Which before the Cross I spend, Life, and health, and peace possessing From the sinner's dying Friend. 2 Here I kneel in wonder, viewing Mercy poured in streams of blood; Precious drops, for pardon suing, Make and plead my peace with God. 3 Truly blessed is the station, Low before His Cross to lie, While I see divine compassion Pleading in His dying eye. 4 Here I find my hope of heaven, While upon the Lamb I gaze; Loving much, and much forgiven, Let my heart o'erflow with praise. 5 Lord, in loving contemplation Fix my heart and eyes on Thee, Till I taste Thy full salvation, And Thine unveiled glories see. 6 For Thy sorrows I adore Thee, For the griefs that wrought our peace; Gracious Saviour, I implore Thee, In my heart Thy love increase.

The saints of God! their conflict pass

Author: W. D. Maclagan Hymnal: CHRC1920 #170 (1920) Tune Title: BEATI Lyrics: 1 The saints of God! their conflict past, And life's long battle won at last. No more they need the shield or sword, They cast them down before the Lord: O happy saints for ever blest, At Jesus' feet how safe you rest! 2 The saints of God! Their wanderings done, No more their weary course they run, No more they faint, no more they fall, No foes oppress, no fears appal; O happy saints! for ever blest, In that dear home how sweet your rest! 3 The saints of God! Life's voyage o'er, Safe landed on that blissful shore, No stormy tempests now they dread, No roaring billows lift their head: O happy saints! for ever blest, In that calm haven of your rest! 4 The saints of God their vigil keep While yet their mortal bodies sleep, Till from the dust they too shall rise And soar triumphant to the skies: O happy saints! rejoice and sing: He quickly comes, your Lord and King! 5 O God of saints! To Thee we cry; O Saviour! plead for us on high; O Holy Ghost! our Guide and Friend, Grant us Thy grace till life shall end; That with all saints our rest may be In that bright Paradise with Thee!

Let saints on earth in concert sing

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: CHRC1920 #176 (1920) Tune Title: BEATITUDO Lyrics: 1 Let saints on earth in concert sing With those whose work is done; For all the servants of our King In heav'n and earth are one. 2 One family, we dwell in Him, One Church, above, beneath; Though now divided by the stream, The narrow stream of death. 3 One army of the living God, To His command we bow; Part of the host have crossed the flood, And part are crossing now. 4 E'en now to their eternal home There pass some spirits blest; While others to the margin come, Waiting their call to rest. 5 Jesus, be Thou our constant Guide; Then, when the word is given, Bid Jordan's narrow stream divide, And bring us safe to heaven.

Jerusalem, my happy home

Author: J. Montgomery Hymnal: CHRC1920 #397 (1920) Tune Title: BEATITUDO Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, my happy home, Name ever dear to me, When shall my labours have an end In joy, and peace, and thee? 2 When shall these eyes thy heaven-built walls And pearly gates behold? Thy bulwarks, with salvation strong, And streets of shining gold? 3 There happier bowers than Eden's bloom, Nor sin nor sorrow know: Blest seats! through rude and stormy scenes I onward press to you. 4 Why should I shrink from pain and woe, Or feel at death dismay? I've Cannaan's goodly land in view, And realms of endless day 5 Apostles, martyrs, prophets, there Around my Saviour stand: And soon my friends in Christ below Will join the glorious band. 6 Jerusalem, my happy home, My soul still pants for thee; Then shall my labours have an end When I thy joys shall see.

O for a heart to praise my God

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: CHRC1920 #423 (1920) Tune Title: BEATITUDO Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God, A heart from sin set free! A heart that's sprinkled with the blood So freely shed for me; 2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My dear Redeemer's throne, Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone; 3 An humble, lowly, contrite heart, Believing, true, and clean; Which neither life nor death can part From Him that dwells within. 4 A heart in every thought renewed, And full of love divine, Perfect, and right, and pure, and good, A copy, Lord, of Thine! 5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart; Come quickly from above; Write Thy new Name upon my heart, Thy new, best Name of Love.

Author: W. Cowper Hymnal: CHRC1920 #459 (1920) Tune Title: BEATITUDO Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God, A calm and heavenly frame, A light to shine upon the road That leads me to the Lamb! 2 Return, O holy Dove, return, Sweet messenger of rest; I hate the sins that made Thee mourn, And drove Thee from my breast. 3 The dearest idol I have known, Whate'er that idol be, Help me to tear it from Thy throne, And worship only Thee. 4 So shall my walk be close with God, Calm and serene my frame; So purer light shall mark the road That leads me to the Lamb.

How bright these glorious spirits shine!

Author: I. Watts; W. Cameron Hymnal: CHRC1920 #485 (1920) Tune Title: BEATITUDO Lyrics: 1 How bright these glorious spirits shine! Whence all their bright array? How came they to the blissful seats Of everlasting day? 2 Lo, these are they from suffering great, Who came to realms of light, And in the blood of Christ have washed Those robes which shine so bright. 3 Now with triumphal palms they stand Before the throne on high, And serve the God they love amidst The glories of the sky. 4 His presence fills each heart with joy, Tunes every mouth to sing; By day, by night, the sacred courts With glad hosannas ring. 5 The Lamb which reigns upon the throne Shall o'er them still preside; Feed them with nourishment divine, And all their footsteps guide. 6 'Mong pastures green He'll lead His flock, Where living streams appear; And God the Lord from every eye Shall wipe off every tear.
