What Glorious Scenes Mine Eyes Behold

What wonders burst upon my view! When Ephraim’s records I unfold, All things appear divinely new. All things appear divinely new. 2. Good news to earth have angels borne, Which fills our souls with joy and peace. Good tidings comfort those who mourn And bring the captive full release, And bring the captive full release. 3. The scattered sheep, who once were sold In darkness o’er the mountains far, Shall now return unto their fold And there their waiting hearts prepare, And there their waiting hearts prepare. 4. Now Israel, long oppressed and grieved In ev’ry land, in ev’ry clime, Shall hear the word of God and live; This is the time, the chosen time. This is the time, the chosen time.

O God, the Eternal Father

Hymnal: LDS1985 #175 (1985) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Tune Title: ABSCHIED First Line: O God, th’Eternal Father Lyrics: 1. O God, th’Eternal Father, Who dwells amid the sky, In Jesus’ name we ask thee To bless and sanctify, If we are pure before thee, This bread and cup of wine, That we may all remember That offering divine— 2. That sacred, holy off’ring, By man least understood, To have our sins remitted And take his flesh and blood, That we may ever witness The suff’ring of thy Son, And always have his Spirit To make our hearts as one. 3. When Jesus, the Anointed, Descended from above And gave himself a ransom To win our souls with love— With no apparent beauty, That man should him desire— He was the promised Savior, To purify with fire. 4. How infinite that wisdom, The plan of holiness, That made salvation perfect And veiled the Lord in flesh, To walk upon his footstool And be like man, almost, In his exalted station, And die, or all was lost.

Praise Ye the Lord

My heart shall join In work so pleasant, so divine, Now, while the flesh is my abode, And when my soul ascends to God. 2. Praise shall employ my noblest pow’rs While immortality endures; My days of praise shall ne’er be past While life and thought and being last. 3. Why should I make a man my trust? Princes must die and turn to dust. Their breath departs; their pomp and pow’r And thoughts all vanish in an hour. 4. Happy the man whose hopes rely On Israel’s God! He made the sky And earth and seas with all their train, And none shall find his promise vain. 5. His truth forever stands secure. He saves th’oppressed; he feeds the poor; He sends the troubled conscience peace And grants the captive sweet release. 6. The Lord gives eyesight to the blind; The Lord supports the sinking mind. He helps the stranger in distress, The widow, and the fatherless. 7. He loves the Saints—he knows them well— But turns the wicked down to hell. Thy God, O Zion, ever reigns; Praise him in everlasting strains. Topics: Faith; Praise; Praise and Thanksgiving Scripture: Psalm 146 Languages: English

The Wintry Day, Descending to Its Close

Author: Orson F. Whitney, 1855–1931 Hymnal: LDS1985 #37 (1985) Tune Title: ALEX Lyrics: 1. The wintry day, descending to its close, Invites all wearied nature to repose, And shades of night are falling dense and fast, Like sable curtains closing o’er the past. Pale through the gloom the newly fallen snow Wraps in a shroud the silent earth below As tho ’twere mercy’s hand had spread the pall, A symbol of forgiveness unto all. 2. I cannot go to rest, but linger still In meditation at my windowsill, While, like the twinkling stars in heaven’s dome, Come one by one sweet memories of home. And wouldst thou ask me where my fancy roves To reproduce the happy scenes it loves, Where hope and memory together dwell And paint the pictured beauties that I tell? 3. Away beyond the prairies of the West, Where exiled Saints in solitude were blest, Where industry the seal of wealth has set Amid the peaceful vales of Deseret, Unheeding still the fiercest blasts that blow, With tops encrusted by eternal snow, The tow’ring peaks that shield the tender sod Stand, types of freedom reared by nature’s God. 4. The wilderness, that naught before would yield, Is now become a fertile, fruitful field. Where roamed at will the fearless Indian band, The templed cities of the Saints now stand. And sweet religion in its purity Invites all men to its security. There is my home, the spot I love so well, Whose worth and beauty pen nor tongue can tell.

God of Our Fathers, Known of Old

Author: Rudyard Kipling, 1865–1936 Hymnal: LDS1985 #80 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Tune Title: ALICE Lyrics: 1. God of our fathers, known of old, Lord of our far-flung battle line, Beneath whose awful hand we hold Dominion over palm and pine: Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget. 2. The tumult and the shouting dies; The captains and the kings depart. Still stands thine ancient sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heart. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget. 3. Far-called, our navies melt away; On dune and headland sinks the fire. Lo, all our pomp of yesterday Is one with Nineveh and Tyre! Judge of the nations, spare us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget.
