Forever with the Lord!

Hymnal: BW1870 #588 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Forever with the Lord! Amen! so let it be; Life from the dead is in that word, 'Tis immortality. 2 Here in the body pent, Absent from Him I roam, Yet nightly pitch my moving tent A day's march nearer home. 3 My Father's house on high, Home of my soul! how near At times to faith's foreseeing eye Thy golden gates appear! 4 Ah, then my spirit faints To reach the land I love, The bright inheritance of saints, Jerusalem above! 5 Forever with the Lord! Father, it is Thy will, The promise of that faithful word, E'en here to me fulfil. 6 Knowing as I am known, How shall I love that word, And oft repeat before the throne, "Forever with the Lord!"

Who are these in bright array

Hymnal: BW1870 #581 (1870) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Who are these in bright array, This innumerable throng, Round the altar night and day, Tuning one triumphant song? "Worthy is the Lamb, once slain, Blessing, honor, glory, power, Wisdom, riches, to obtain New dominion ev'ry hour." 2 These through fiery trials trod; These from great affliction came; Now, before the throne of God, Seal'd with His eternal name, Clad in raiment pure and white, Victor palms in ev'ry 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 amidst the throne, Shall to living fountains lead. Joy and gladness banish sighs; Perfect love dispels all fears; And forever from their eyes, God shall wipe away their tears. Topics: Eternity; Heaven Bliss of; Victory Languages: English

And let this feeble body fail

Hymnal: BW1870 #342 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 And let this feeble body fail, And let it faint and die; My soul shall quit the mournful vale And soar to worlds on high: Shall join the disembodied saints, And find its long-sought rest, That only bliss for which it pants In the Redeemer's breast. 2 In hope of that immortal crown, I now the cross sustain, And gladly wonder up and down, And smile at toil and pain. I suffer on my threescore years Till my deliverer come, And wipe away his servant's tears, And take his exile home. 3 Oh, what hath Jesus bought for me! Before my ravish'd eyes Rivers of life divine I see, And trees of paradise! I see a world of spirits bright Who taste the pleasures there! They all are robed in spotless white, And conq'ring palms they bear. 4 Oh, what are all my suff'rings here If, Lord, Thou count me meet, With that enraptured host t'appear, And worship at Thy feet! Give joy or grief, give ease or pain, Take life or friends away: But let me find them all again In that eternal day.

By cool Siloam's shady rill

Hymnal: BW1870 #507 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 By cool Siloam's shady rill How sweet the lily grows; How sweet the breath beneath the hill Of Sharon's dewy rose; And such the child whose early feet The paths of peace have trod, Whose secret heart with influence sweet, Is upward drawn to God. 3 By cool Siloam's shady rill, The lily must decay' The rose that blooms beneath the hill Must shortly fade away; And soon, too soon, the wintry hour Of man's maturer age May shake the soul with sorrow's power, And stormy passion's rage. 3 O Thou, whose infant feet was found With heavenly rays to shine,, Whose years, with changeless virtue crown'd, Were all alike divine-- Dependent on thy bounteous breath, We seek Thy grace alone; In childhood, manhood, and in death, To keep us still Thine own.
