Sweet Place
Author: Samuel Crossman Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: Sweet place; sweet place alone Refrain First Line: O happy place! Lyrics: 1. Sweet place; sweet place alone!
The court of God most high,
The heaven of heavens, the throne
Of spotless majesty!
Refrain
O happy place!
When shall I be, my God, with Thee,
To see Thy face?
2. The stranger homeward bends,
And sigheth for his rest:
Heaven is my home, my friends
Lodge there in Abraham’s breast. [Refrain]
3. Earth’s but a sorry tent,
Pitched but a few frail days,
A short leased tenement;
Heaven’s still my song, my praise. [Refrain]
4. No tears from any eyes
Drop in that holy choir:
But death itself there dies,
And sighs themselves expire. [Refrain]
5. There should temptations cease,
My frailties there should end.
There should I rest in peace
In the arms of my best friend. [Refrain]
6. Jerusalem on high
My song and city is,
My home whene’er I die,
The center of my bliss. [Refrain]
7. Thy walls, sweet city! thine
With pearls are garnished,
Thy gates with praises shine,
Thy streets with gold are spread. [Refrain]
8. No sun by day shines there,
No moon by silent night.
O no! these needless are;
The Lamb’s the city’s light. [Refrain]
9. There dwells my Lord, my king,
Judged here unfit to live;
There angels to Him sing,
And lowly homage give. [Refrain]
10. The patriarchs of old
There from their travels cease:
The prophets there behold
Their longed for Prince of Peace. [Refrain]
11. The Lamb’s apostles there
I might with joy behold:
The harpers I might hear
Harping on harps of gold. [Refrain]
12. The bleeding martyrs, they
Within those courts are found;
All clothed in pure array,
Their scars with glory crowned. [Refrain]
13. Ah me! ah me! that I
In Kedar’s tents here stay;
No place like this on high;
Thither, Lord! guide my way. [Refrain] Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148TH Text Sources: The Young Man's Meditation, 1664

Upward I Lift Mine Eyes
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 242 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Upward I lift mine eyes,
From God is all my aid;
The God that built the skies,
And earth and nature made;
God is the tower to which I fly;
His grace is nigh in every hour.
2 My feet shall never slide
And fall in fatal snares,
Since God, my guard and guide,
Defends me from my fears.
Those wakeful eyes that never sleep
Shall Israel keep when dangers rise.
3 No burning heats by day,
Nor blasts of evening air,
Shall take my health away,
If God be with me there.
Thou art my sun, and Thou my shade,
To guard my head by night or noon.
4 Hast Thou not giv’n Thy word
To save my soul from death?
And I can trust my Lord
To keep my mortal breath.
I’ll go and come, nor fear to die,
Till from on high Thou call me home. Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148TH Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719

O Death, Where Is Thy Sting?
Author: Stephen Popovich Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O death where is thy sting? Lyrics: 1 O death where is thy sting?
Where grave, thy victory?
O keys of hell, why change
Ye hands at Calvary?
Lo, on that hill
God’s wrath was placed,
Our sins erased,
And death made nil.
2 O sinner, set thy faith
On Him who bore thy curse;
The venom of that sting
Abideth on the earth.
But Christ arose
To be our way,
And sole escape,
From sin’s grim woe.
3 O saint, turn not behind—
Reach forth to things ahead;
Thy faith has made thee whole
And raised thee from the dead,
To be as one
With what awaits
Past Heaven’s gate
When ends have come.
4 O Lord, for Thee we watch,
Unto that blessèd day,
When whate’er form we take
Shall see Thee face to face;
For Thy great pow’r
Will resurrect
All Thine elect;
O wondrous hour! Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148TH
O Death, Where Is Thy Sting?
