The Issues of Life

Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 First Line: Dust to dust, the mortal dies Lyrics: 1 Dust to dust, the mortal dies, Both the foolish and the wise; None forever can remain, Each must leave his hoarded gain. Yet within their heart they say That their houses are for aye, That their dwelling places grand Shall for generations stand. 2 To their lands they give their name In the hope of lasting fame, But man's honor quickly flies, Like the lowly beast he dies. Tho' such folly mark their way, Men approve of what they say; Death their shepherd, they the sheep He within his fold will keep. 3 O'er them soon shall rule the just, All their beauty turn to dust; God my waiting soul shall save, He will raise me from the grave. Let no fear disturb your peace Tho' one's house and wealth increase; Death shall end his fleeting day, He shall carry naught away. 4 Though in life he wealth attained, Tho' the praise of men he gained, He shall join those gone before, Where the light shall shine no more. Crowned with honor tho' he be, Highly gifted, strong and free, If he be not truly wise, Man is like the beast that dies.

The Song of Jubilee

Author: J. Montgomery Appears in 446 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 First Line: Hark! the song of Jubilee Lyrics: 1. Hark! the song of Jubilee; Loud as mighty thunders roar, Or the fulness of the sea When it breaks upon the shore; Hallelujah! 'tis the Lord! Lo, he comes on earth to reign; Hallelujah! let the word Echo round the earth and main. 2. Hallelujah! hark! the sound Rises joyful to the skies; From above, beneath, around, Wake creation's harmonies: See Jehovah's banner furl'd, Sheath'd his sword: he speaks, 'tis done; Hallelujah! let the word Echo around the earth and main. 3. He shall reign from pole to pole With supreme, unbounded sway; He shall reign, when like a scroll Yonder heav'ns have pass'd away: Then beneath his iron rod, Man's last enemy shall fall; Hallelujah! to our God, Lo, he comes to conquer all.

The morning star

Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Schoolmates, can you tell me, why Lyrics: Question. 1 School-mates, can you tell me, why Angel-light illumed the sky, When upon the fearful night Mercy smiled in heaven's light? Answer. Eva, yes, that glorious hour Saw the Saviour's wond'rous power, When he banish'd Salem's gloom, Rose in triumph from the tomb. Question. 2 School-mates, could you feel her grief, When lone Mary sought relief, Would you not with her delight Still to watch the tardy night? Answer. Eva, yes, perfumes we'd strew, Tears would mingle with the dew; Gladness then should chase our gloom, Jesus rising from the tomb. Question. 3 School-mates, come, your Lord adore, High he lives, to die no more; Once he slept in Joseph's grave, Now he reigns, a Prince to save. Answer: Eva, yes, with glory's throng We will chant redemption's song; He hath driven death afar, Reigns he now "the morning star." Used With Tune: THE MORNING STAR
