"My Father's House"
Author: Mrs. F. C. Van Alstyne Hymnal: LD1890 #570 (1890) First Line: In the house of my Father above Refrain First Line: I shall go to that home by and by Lyrics: 1 In the house of my Father above,
There are mansions provided for me,
Where my soul in the fulness of joy shall awake
From its body of sin, to be free.
Refrain:
I shall go to that home by and by,
And my Saviour will welcome me there:
He will crown me with life, he will fill me with joy,
And his garment of love I shall wear.
2 When I weary of labor and toil,
And with sorrow my heart is oppressed,
Then my Saviour comes near, and I think with delight
Of the beautiful mansions of rest. [Refrain]
3 I have friends in those mansions above;
They are waiting me now on the shore;
And I know we shall meet at the portals of light,
When a few fleeting days shall be o'er. [Refrain] Topics: The Rest of Heaven; Heaven; Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: OLIM
"My Father's House"
Who are these in bright aray
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: LD1890 #571 (1890) Lyrics: 1 Who are these in bright array,
This innumerable throng
Round the altar, night and day
Hymning one triumphant song?
"Worthy is the Lamb, once slain,
Blessing, honor, glory, power,
Wisdom, riches, to obtain,
New dominion every hour."
2 These through fiery trials trod;
These from great afflictions came;
Now, before the throne of God,
Sealed with his almighty name.
Clad in raiment pure and white,
Victor-palms in every hand,
Through their dear Redeemer's might,
More than conquerors they stand.
3 Hunger, thirst, disease unknown,
On immortal fruits they feed;
Them the Lamb, amid the throne,
Shall to living fountains lead:
Joy and gladness banish sighs
Perfect love dispel all fears
And for ever from their eyes
God shall wipe away the tears. Topics: The Rest of Heaven; Heaven; Heaven Languages: English

Author: G. Gill Hymnal: LD1890 #572 (1890) First Line: Beautiful Zion, built above Refrain First Line: Zion, Zion, lovely Zion Lyrics: 1 Beautiful Zion, built above,
Beautiful city that I love;
Beautiful gates of pearly white,
Beautiful temple God is light,
He who was slain on Calvary,
Opens those pearly gates to me.
Refrain:
Zion, Zion, lovely Zion,
Beautiful Zion, city of our God.
Zion, Zion, lovely Zion,
Beautiful Zion, city of our God.
2 Beautiful crowns on every brow,
Beautiful palms the conquerors show;
Beautiful robes the ransomed wear,
Beautiful all who enter there
Thither I press with eager feet;
There shall my rest be long and sweet. [Refrain]
3 Beautiful throne for Christ our King,
Beautiful songs the angels sing;
Beautiful rest all wanderings cease;
Beautiful home of perfect peace
There shall my eyes the Saviour see
Haste to his heavenly home with me. [Refrain] Topics: The Rest of Heaven; Heaven; Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: CORRIDOR HEIGHTS

New Year
Author: John Newton Hymnal: LD1890 #573 (1890) First Line: While, with ceaseless course, the sun Lyrics: 1 While, with ceaseless course, the sun
Hasted through the former year,
Many souls their race have run,
Nevermore to meet us here:
Fixed in an eternal state,
They have done with all below;
We a little longer wait,
But how little none can know.
2 As the winged arrow flies
Speedily the mark to find;
As the lightning from the skies
Darts, and leaves no trace behind,
Swiftly thus our fleeting days
Bear us down life's rapid stream;
Upward, Lord, our spirits raise,
All below is but a dream.
3 Thanks for mercies past receive;
Pardon of our sins renew;
Teach us henceforth how to live,
With eternity in view:
Bless thy word to young and old;
Fill us with a Saviour's love;
And, when life's short tale is told,
May we dwell with thee above! Topics: Miscellaneous; New Year; Year, Close of; New Year; Year, Close of Languages: English Tune Title: BENEVENTO

Song for Harvest
Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: LD1890 #574 (1890) First Line: Come, ye thankful people, come Lyrics: 1 Come, ye thankful people, come,
Raise the song of Harvest Home!
All is safely gathered in,
Ere the winter storms begin:
God our Maker doth provide
For our wants to be supplied:
Come to God's own temple, come,
Raise the song of Harvest Home!
2 We ourselves are God's own field,
Fruit unto his praise to yield:
Wheat and tares together sown,
Unto joy or sorrow grown:
First the blade, and then the ear,
Then the full corn shall appear:
Grant, O Harvest-Lord, that we
Wholesome grain and pure may be!
3 For the Lord our God shall come,
And shall take his harvest home:
From his field shall in that day
All offences purge away:
Give his angels charge at last
In the fire the tares to cast:
But the fruitful ears to store
In his garner evermore.
4 Then, thou Church Triumphant, come,
Raise the song of Harvest Home!
All our safely gathered in,
Free from sorrow, free from sin:
There, for ever purified,
In God's garner to abide:
Come, ten thousand angels, come,
Raise the glorious Harvest Home! Topics: Miscellaneous; Harvest; Thanksgiving; Harvest; Thanksgiving Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE

National Song
Author: Samuel F. Smith Hymnal: LD1890 #575 (1890) First Line: My country! 'tis of thee Lyrics: 1 My country! 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land of the Pilgrims' pride!
From every mountain side
Let freedom ring!
2 My native country, thee
Land of the noble, free
Thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.
3 Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees
Sweet freedom's song:
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.
4 Our father's God! to thee,
Author of liberty,
To thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by thy might,
Great God, our King! Topics: Miscellaneous; National; Peace National; National; Peace National Languages: English

Author: John R. Wreford Hymnal: LD1890 #576 (1890) First Line: Lord! while for all mankind we pray Lyrics: 1 Lord! while for all mankind we pray,
Of every clime and coast,
Oh, hear us for our native land,
The land we love the most.
2 Oh, guard our shores from every foe,
With peace our borders bless,
With prosperous times our cities crown,
Our fields with plenteousness.
3 Unite us in the sacred love
Of knowledge, truth, and thee.
And let our hills and valleys shout
The songs of liberty.
4 Here may religion, pure and mild,
Smile on our Sabbath hours;
And piety and virtue bless
The home of us and ours.
5 Lord of the nations, thus to thee
Our country we commend;
Be thou her refuge and her trust,
Her everlasting friend.

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LD1890 #577 (1890) First Line: Thee we adore, eternal Name! Lyrics: 1 Thee we adore, eternal Name!
And humbly own to thee
How feeble is our mortal frame,
What dying worms are we!
2 The year rolls round, and steals away
The breath that first it gave;
Whate'er we do, where'er we be,
We're traveling to the grave.
3 Great God! on what a slender thread
Hang everlasting things!
The eternal state of all the dead
Upon life's feeble strings!
4 Infinite joy, or endless woe,
Attends on every breath;
And yet, how unconcerned we go
Upon the brink of death!
5 Waken, O Lord, our drowsy sense,
To walk this dangerous road!
And if our souls are hurried hence,
May they be found with God. Topics: Miscellaneous; Year, Close of; Year, Close of Languages: English

New Year
Author: William Gaskell Hymnal: LD1890 #578 (1890) First Line: Our Father! through the coming year Lyrics: 1 Our Father! through the coming year
We know not what shall be;
But we would leave without a fear
Its ordering all to thee.
2 It may be we shall toil in vain
For what the world holds fair;
And all the good we thought to gain
Deceive and prove but care.
3 It may be it shall darkly blend
Our love with anxious fears,
And snatch away the valued friend,
The tried of many years.
4 It may be it shall bring us days
And nights of lingering pain;
And bid us take a farewell gaze
Of these loved haunts of men.
5 But calmly, Lord, on thee we rest;
No fears our trust shall move;
Thou knowest what for each is best,
And thou art Perfect Love. Topics: Miscelleneous; New Year; New Year Languages: English

Prayer for Seamen
Author: Mrs. Phoebe H. Brown Hymnal: LD1890 #579 (1890) First Line: We come, O Lord, before thy throne Lyrics: 1 We come, O Lord, before thy throne,
And, with united plea,
We meet and pray for those who roam
Far off upon the sea.
2 Oh, may the Holy Spirit bow
The sailor's heart to thee,
Till tears of deep repentance flow,
Like rain-drops in the sea!
3 Then may a Saviour's dying love
Pour peace into his breast,
And waft him to the port above
Of everlasting rest. Topics: Miscellaneous; Peace National; Sailors; Peace National; Sailors Languages: English
