Behold a host like mountains bright!

Author: Hans Adolf Brorson, 1694 - 1764 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #599 (1958) Tune Title: BEHOLD A HOST Lyrics: 1 Behold a host like mountains bright! Lo! who are these, arrayed in white, A glorious band, with palms in hand Around the throne of light? Lo, these are they who overcame Great tribulation in his Name, And with his Blood the Lamb of God Hath washed away their shame. Before God's face they sing and pray, Their voices blend with angels' lay, And all conspire, a joyous choir, To laud him night and day. 2 Then sing, ye conquering legions white, Let myriad voices hail his might, And praise the Lord, who by his word Hath stablished you in light. Ye, who all earthly lure did flee, Who sowed and toiled, but tears to see, With rapture bring your sheaves and sing A heavenly melody. Lift up your palms, your voices raise Through heaven's vault and endless days. To God and to the Lamb is due Eternity of praise.

Behold a host, arrayed in white

Author: H. A. Brorson Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #492 (1913) Tune Title: [Behold a host arrayed in white] Lyrics: 1 Behold a host, arrayed in white, Like thousand snow-clad mountains bright, With palms they stand--Who are this band Before the throne of light? Lo, these are they, of glorious fame, Who from the great affliction came And in the flood of Jesus' blood Are cleansed from guilt and blame; Now gathered in the holy place Their voices they in worship raise, Their anthems swell where God doth dwell, 'Mid angels' songs of praise. 2 Despised and scorned they sojourned here, But now, how glorious they appear! Those martyrs stand, a priestly band, God's throne forever near. So oft, in troubled days gone by, In anguish they would weep and sigh; At home above the God of love For aye their tears shall dry. They now enjoy their sabbath rest, The paschal banquet of the blest; The Lamb, their Lord, at festal board Himself is host and guest. 3 Then hail! ye mighty legions, yea, All hail! Now safe and blest for aye; And praise the Lord, who with His word Sustained you on the way. Ye did the joys of earth disdain, Ye toiled and sowed in tears and pain; Farewell, now bring your sheaves and sing Salvation's glad refrain. Swing high your palms, lift up your song, Yea, make it myriad voices strong: Eternally shall praise to Thee, God, and the Lamb belong!

Behold the Host

Author: C. Doving; H. A. Brorson Hymnal: Concordia #181 (1918) Tune Title: DEN STORE HVIDE FLOK First Line: Behold the host arrayed in white Lyrics: 1 Behold the host arrayed in white, Like thousand snow-clad mountains bright, With palms they stand-- Who are this band Before the throng of light? These are the ransomed throng, the same That from the tribulation came And in the flood Of Jesus' blood Are cleansed from guilt and shame, And now arrayed in robes made white They God are serving day and night, And anthems swell Where God doth dwell 'Mid angels in the height. 2 On earth despised, beneath the rod, They thro' the fire of trials trod, Now, clothed in white, They dwell in light, Are kings and priests to God; How often in the evil day They here below did weep and pray, But conflicts past, Brought home at last, God wiped their tears away; Hunger and thirst no more they know, No scorching sun doth work them woe, The Lamb them feeds, Himself them leads Where living fountains flow. 3 O happy saints! forever blest! Hail, ye who have attained your rest! Faithful to death Ye kept the faith Though ye were sore opprest; The world ye did renounce of yore, The precious seed ye weeping bore, Now reap the joy Without alloy In bliss forevermore; Lift up your voice, wave palms again, And swell the everlasting song: All glory be O God to Thee, And to the Lamb belong.
