O what their joy and their glory must be

Author: Peter Abelard, 1079-1142; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: CAH2000 #550 (2000) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Person Name: Peter Abelard, 1079-1142 Lyrics: 1 O what their joy and their glory must be, those endless sabbaths the blesséd ones see; crown for the valiant, to weary ones rest; God shall be all, and in all ever blest. 2 What are the Monarch, his court, and his throne? What are the peace and the joy that they own? O that the blest ones, who in it have share, all that they feel could as fully declare. 3 Truly Jerusalem name we that shore, 'Vision of peace', that brings joy evermore. Wish and fufilment can severed be ne'er, nor the thing prayed for come short of the prayer. 4 There, where no troubles distraction can bring, we the sweet anthems of Sion shall sing, while for thy grace, Lord, their voices of praise thy blesséd people eternally raise. 5 There dawns no sabbath, no sabbath is o'er, those sabbath-keepers have one evermore; one and unending is that triumph-song which to the angels and us shall belong. 6 Now in the meanwhile, with hearts raised on high, we for that country must yearn and must sigh; seeking Jerusalem, dear native land, through our long exile on Babylon's strand. 7 Low before him with our praises we fall, of whom, and in whom, and through whom are all; of whom, the Father; and in whom, the Son; through whom, the Spirit, with them ever One.

The spacious firmament on high

Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Hymnal: CAH2000 #665 (2000) Person Name: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high, with all the blue ethereal sky, and spangled heav'ns, a shining frame, their great Original proclaim. The unwearied sun from day to day does his Creator's pow'r display, and publishes to ev'ry land the works of an almighty hand, the works of an almighty hand. 2 Soon as the evening shades prevail the moon takes up the wondrous tale, and nightly to the list'ning earth repeats the story of her birth; whilst all the stars that round her burn, and all the planets in their turn, confirm the tidings, as they roll, and spread the truth from pole to pole, and spread the truth from pole to pole. 3 What though in solemn silence all move round the dark terrestrial ball; what though nor lit'ral voice nor sound amid their radiant orbs be found; in reason's ear they all rejoice, and utter forth a glorious voice, for ever singing as they shine, 'The hand that made us is divine, the hand that made us is divine.'
