The King shall come when morning dawns

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 93 hymnals Lyrics: The King shall come when morning dawns, And light triumphant breaks; When beauty gilds the eastern hills, And life to joy awakes. Not as of old a little child To bear, and fight, and die, But crowned with glory like the sun That lights the morning sky. O brighter than the rising morn When he, victorious, rose, And left the lonesome place of death, Despite the rage of foes; O brighter than that glorious morn Shall this fair morning be, When Christ, our King, in beauty comes, And we his face shall see. The King shall come when morning dawns, And earth's dark night is past; O haste the rising of that morn, The day that aye shall last; And let the endless bliss begin, By weary saints foretold, When right shall triumph over wrong, And truth shall be extolled. The King shall come when morning dawns, And light and beauty brings: Hail, Christ the Lord! Thy people pray, Come quickly, King of kings. Amen.

God's mercies I will ever sing

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God’s mercies I will ever sing; and with my mouth I shall thy faithfulness make to be known to generations all. 2 For mercy shall be built, said I, for ever to endure; thy faithfulness even in the heavens thou wilt establish sure. 3 I with my chosen one have made a covenant graciously; and to my servant whom I loved, to David sworn have I; 4 that I thy seed establish shall for ever to remain, and will to generations all thy throne build and maintain. 5 The praises of thy wonders, Lord, the heavens shall express; the assembly of the holy ones shall praise thy faithfulness. 6 For who in heaven with the Lord may once himself compare? Who is like God among the sons of those that mighty are? 7 Great fear in meeting of the saints is due unto the Lord; and he of all about him should with reverence be adored. 8 O Lord, the God of hosts, who can to thee compared be? The might One, the Lord, whose truth doth round encompass thee. 9 Even in the raging of the sea thou over it dost reign; and when the waves thereof do rise, thou stillest them again. 10 Rahab in pieces thou didst break, like one that slaughtered is; and with thy mighty arm thou hast dispersed thine enemies. 11 The heavens are thine, thou for thine own the earth dost also take; the world, and fulness of the same, thou by thy power didst make. 12 The north and south from thee alone their first beginning had; both Tabor mount and Hermon hill shall in thy name be glad. 13 Thou hast an arm that’s full of power, thy hand is great in might; and thy right hand exceedingly exalted is in height. 14 Justice and judgment of thy throne are made the dwelling-place; mercy, accompanied with truth, shall go before thy face.1 15 O greatly blessed the people are the joyful sound that know; in brightness of thy face, O Lord, they ever on shall go. 16 They in thy name shall all the day rejoice exceedingly; and in thy righteousness shall they exalted be on high. 17 Because the glory of their strength doth only stand in thee; and in thy favour shall our horn and power exalted be. 18 For to the Lord belongs our shield, that doth us safety bring: and unto Israel's Holy One the man that is our king.
