Who are these like stars appearing

Author: H. T. Schenck; F. E. Cox Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #178 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Burial of the Dead Lyrics: 1 Who are these like stars appearing, These, before God's throne who stand? Each a golden crown is wearing; Who are all this glorious band? Alleluia! hark, they sing, Praising loud their heavenly King. 2 Who are these of dazzling brightness, These in God's own truth arrayed, Clad in robes of purest whiteness, Robes whose lustre ne'er shall fade, Ne'er be touched by time's rude hand? Whence come all this glorious band? 3 These are they who have contended For their Saviour's honor long, Wrestling on till life was ended, Following not the sinful throng: These, who well the fight sustained, Triumph by the Lamb have gained. 4 These are they whose hearts were riven, Sore with woe and anguish tried, Who in prayer full oft have striven With the God they glorified: Now, their painful conflict o'er, God has bid them weep no more. 5 These like priests have watched and waited, Offering up to Christ their will; Soul and body consecrated, Day and night to serve him still: Now in God's most holy place Blest they stand before His face. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS

Hark! the sound of holy voices

Author: C. Wordsworth Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #179a (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Burial of the Dead Lyrics: 1 Hark! the sound of holy voices, Chanting at the crystal sea, Alleluia, alleluia, Alleluia, Lord, to Thee; Multitude which none can number, Like the stars in glory stands, Clothed in white apparel, holding Palms of victory in their hands. 2 Patriarch, and holy prophet. Who prepared the way for Christ, King, apostle, saint, confessor, Martyr and evangelist; Saintly maiden, golden matron, Widows who have watched to prayer, Joined in holy concert, singing, To the Lord of all, are there. 3 Marching with Thy cross their banner, They have triumphed, following Thee, the Captain of salvation, Thee, their Saviour and their King; Gladly, Lord, with Thee they suffered; Gladly, Lord, with Thee they died; And by death to life immortal They were born and glorified. 4 Now they reign in heavenly glory, Now they walk in golden light, Now they drink, as from a river, Holy bliss and infinite: Love and peace they taste for ever, And all truth and knowledge see In the beatific vision Of the blessèd Trinity. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: SANCTUARY

Who are these in bright array

Montgomery Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #180a (1898) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Burial of the Dead Lyrics: 1 Who are these in bright array, This innumerable throng, Round the altar, night and day, Tuning their 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 affliction came; Now before the throne of God, Sealed with His eternal Name; Clad in raiment pure and white, Victor palms in every hand, Through their great 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 their fears, And for ever from their eyes God shall wipe away all tears.
