who thee by faith before the world confessed,
thy name, O Jesus, be forever blest.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
2 Thou wast their rock, their fortress, and their might;
thou, Lord, their captain in the well-fought fight;
thou in the darkness drear, their one true light.

We feebly struggle, they in glory shine.
Yet all are one in thee, for all are thine.
Alleluia! Alleluia!

steals on the ear the distant triumph song,
and hearts are brave again and arms are strong.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
5 But then there breaks a yet more glorious day:
the saints triumphant rise in bright array;
the King of glory passes on his way.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
6 From earth's wide bounds and ocean's farthest coast,
through gates of pearl stream in the countless host,
singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost:
Alleluia! Alleluia!

Deut. 30:19
Author: James Montgomery Appears in 646 hymnals Scripture: Daniel 12:2 First Line: Oh, where shall rest be found Lyrics: 1 Oh, where shall a rest be found--
Rest for the weary soul?
'Twere vain the ocean's depths to sound,
Or pierce to either pole.

The bliss for which we sigh:
'Tis not the whole of life to live,
Nor all of death to die.
3 Beyond this vale of tears
There is a life above,
Unmeasured by the flight of years;
And all that life is love.
4 There is a death whose pang
Outlasts the fleeting breath:
Oh, what eternal horrors hang
Around the second death!
5 Lord God of truth and grace!
Teach us that death to sun;
Lest we be banished from thy face,
And evermore undone. Topics: Atonement Necessary Used With Tune: SHAWMUT

To take thy ransomed people home,
Shall I among them stand?
Shall such a worthless worm as I,
Who sometimes am afraid to die,
Be found at thy right hand?
2 I love to meet thy people now,
Before thy feet with them to bow,
Though vilest of them all;
But, can I bear the piercing thought,
What if my name should be left out,
When thou for them shalt call?
3 O Lord, prevent it by thy grace,
Be thou my only hiding-place,
In this the accepted day;
Thy pardoning voice, oh, let me hear,
To still my unbelieving fear,
Nor let me fall, I pray.
4 Among thy saints let me be found.
Whene'er the archangel's trump shall sound,
To see thy smiling face;
Then loudest of the throng I'll sing.
While heaven's resounding mansions ring
With shouts of sovereign grace. Topics: Advent of Christ To Judgment; Advent of Christ To Kingdom; Book of Life; Christ Judge Used With Tune: MERIBAH

Through the night of doubt and sorrow
Author: Bernhardt Ingemann, 1789-1862; Sabine Baring-Gould, 1834-1924 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 317 hymnals Scripture: Daniel 12:2 Lyrics: 1 Through the night of doubt and sorrow
onward goes the pilgrim band,
singing songs of expectation,
marching to the promised land.
2 Clear before us through the darkness
gleams and burns the guiding light;
pilgrim clasps the hand of pilgrim,
stepping fearless through the night.
3 One the light of God's own presence
o'er his ransomed people shed,
chasing far the gloom and terror,
brightening all the path we tread:
4 One the object of our journey,
one the faith which never tires,
one the earnest looking forward,
one the hope our God inspires:
5 One the strain that lips of thousands
lift as from the heart of one;
one the conflict, one the peril,
one the march in God begun:
6 One the gladness of rejoicing
on the far eternal shore,
where the one almighty Father
reigns in love for evermore.
*7 Onward, therefore, pilgrim brothers,
onward with the cross our aid;
bear its shame, and fight its battle,
till we rest beneath its shade.
*8 Soon shall come the great awaking,
soon the rending of the tomb;
then the scattering of all shadows,
and the end of toil and gloom.
