Dark Brood the Heav'ns O'er Thee

Author: Samuel F. Smith Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 29 hymnals First Line: Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee Lyrics: 1 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee, Black clouds are gath’ring fast; In awful power thy God has come, Thy days of mirth are past. 2 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee, Red flames are bursting round; Bright lightnings flash, loud thunders roar, How shakes the trembling ground! 3 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee, Behold, the Judge appears; Unnumbered millions throng around, Raised from the dust of years. 4 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee, Soon thou wilt hear thy doom; Destruction opens wide for thee, Thy chosen, final home. 5 Yet wait, the vision stays; Why sinner, wilt thou die? Dark brood the heav’ns—but mercy waits; This hour to Jesus fly! Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE Text Sources: Sacred Lyrics by Nathan S. S. Beman (Boston: Perkins & Marvin, 1832)

Lord of the Harvest, Hear

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 191 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord of the harvest, hear Thy needy servants’ cry; Answer our faith’s effectual prayer, And all our needs supply. 2. On Thee we humbly wait; Our wants are in Thy view, The harvest truly, Lord, is great; The laborers are few. 3. Convert, and send forth more Into Thy Church abroad, And let them speak Thy Word of power, As workers with their God. 4. Give the pure Gospel word, The word of general grace; Thee let them preach, the common Lord, Savior of human race. 5. O let them spread Thy name, Their mission fully prove, Thy universal grace proclaim, Thine all redeeming love! 6. On all mankind, forgiven, Empower them still to call, And tell each creature under Heaven That Thou hast died for all. Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1742
