Hark! A Thrilling Voice is Sounding!

Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 133 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hark! A thrilling voice is sounding! "Christ is near," we hear the cry. "Cast away the works of darkness, All you children of the day!" 2 Startled at the solemn warning, Let the earth-bound soul arise; Christ, its sun, all sloth dispelling, Shines upon the morning skies. 3 See the Lamb, so long expected, Comes with pardon down from heav'n. Let us haste, with tears of sorrow, One and all, to be forgiv'n; 4 So, when next he comes in glory And the world is wrapped in fear, He will shield us with his mercy And with words of love draw near. 5 Honor, glory, might, dominion to the Father and the Son With the everliving Spirit While eternal ages run!

Safely through another week

Author: John Newton Appears in 1,012 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Safely through another week, God has brought us on our way: Let us now a blessing seek, Waiting in His courts to-day; Day of all the week the best, Emblem of eternal rest. 2 Mercies multiplied each hour Through the week, our praise demand; Guarded by Thy mighty power, Fed and guided by Thy hand; Though ungrateful we have been, Only made returns of sin. 3 While we pray for pardoning grace, Through the dear Redeemer's name, Show Thy reconciled face, Take away our sin and shame: From our worldly cares set free, May we rest this day in Thee. 4 Here we come Thy Name to praise; Let us feel Thy presence near: May Thy glory meet our eyes, While we in Thy house appear: Here afford us, Lord, a taste Of our everlasting feast. 5 May thy Gospel's joyful sound Conquer sinners, comfort saints; Make the fruits of grace abound, Bring relief for all complaints. Thus may all our Sabbaths prove, Till we join the Church above. Topics: Worship The Lord's Day; Easter Sunday; Eleventh Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: FREUEN WIR UNS ALL IN EIN
