The Star in the East anew.
Hymnal: CSSD1829 #CLXIII (1823) Meter: 11.8 First Line: See, see in the east a new glory ascends Lyrics: 1. See! see in the east a new glory ascends,
And pours its effulgence afar;
It glides on sublime, and earth's uttermost ends
Acknowledge Immanuel's star.
2. O'er the 'Jew trodden down,' as the prophets foretold,
It travels with lustre serene;
While heathens transform'd, as intent they behold,
Are singing, 'The star we have seen.'
3. Hark! from yonder bold hills how the Syrians shout,
While Comoron echoes the lay;
The German and Dane spread the tidings about,
And jubilees welcome the day.
4. From the martyr'd Abdallah see Sabet retire,
Arabian darkness he fears!
Love and zeal for a Saviour his bosom inspire,
And the christian translator appears.
5. And still, see the day-star its journey pursue,
Even Brahmans pronounce it divine;
Jehovah incarnate shall multitudes view,
And scatter their gifts at his shrine.
6. Ye Herods, in vain do you menace and rage,
And vain is hell's horrible roar;
Time, meeting with Prophecy, opens her page,
And bids all the nations adore.
7. Roll on, blessed Star, fill the world with thy light,
The saints are expecting thy rays;
Bid the latter-day morning ascend in its might,
And shine on our incense of praise.
The Star in the East anew.
Thy goodness, Lord, our souls confess

Thy goodness, Lord, our souls confess
What wondrous love is this
Hymnal: CSSD1829 #DCLXXIII (1823) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 What wondrous love is this,
O my soul, O my soul,
What wondrous love is this,
O my soul:
What wondrous love is this,
That caus'd the Lord of bliss,
To bear the dreadful curse,
For my soul, for my soul,
To bear the dreadful curse,
For my soul.
2 When I was sinking down,
Sinking down, sinking down;
When I was sinking down,
Sinking down;
When I was sinking down,
Beneath God's righteous frown,
Christ laid aside his crown,
For my soul, for my soul;
Christ laid aside his crown,
For my soul.
3 Ye winged seraphs fly,
Bear the news, bear the news,
Ye winged seraphs fly,
Bear the news,
Ye winged seraphs fly,
Like comets thro' the sky,
Fill vast eternity,
With the news, with the news,
Fill vast eternity,
With the news.
4 To God, and to the Lamb,
I will sing, I will sing,
To God, and to the Lamb,
I will sing,
To God, and to the Lamb,
And the great I AM,
While millions join the theme,
I will sing, I will sing,
While millions join the theme,
I will sing.
5 Come friends of Zion's King,
Join the praise, join the praise,
Come friends of Zion's King,
Join the praise:
Come friends of Zion's King,
With hearts, and voices sing,
And strike each tuneful string,
In his praise, in his praise;
And strike each tuneful string,
In his praise.
6 Thus while from death we're free,
We'll sing on, we'll sing on,
Thus while from death we're free,
We'll sing on;
Thus while from death we're free,
We'll sing and joyful be,
And thro' eternity,
We'll sing on, we'll sing on;
And thro' eternity,
We'll sing on.
7 And when to that bright world,
We arise, we arise,
And when to that bright world,
We arise;
When to that world we go,
Free from all pain, and woe,
We'll join the happy throng,
And sing on, and sing on,
We'll join the happy throng,
And sing on. Topics: Miscellaneous Poems Languages: English
