Praise Him

Hymnal: Joyful Songs #102 (1875) Hymnal Title: Joyful Songs First Line: Angel bands in strains sweet sounding Lyrics: 1 Angel bands in strains sweet sounding, Anthems to the Savior raise, Hosts of heav'n his throne surrounding, Hymn the great creator's praise. Radiant orb of day adore Him, Praise Him thou who rul'st the night, Heav'n of heav'ns O bow before Him, Laud him All ye worlds of light. Ev'ry kindred tongue and nation, Him who gave you life adore; Earth and Heav'n and all creation, Praise His name for evermore. 2 Praise Him wild and restless Ocean, Praise Him monsters of the deep, Praise Him in your rude commotion, Storm that at His mandate sweep. Hills and mountains heav'nward towering, Fires that in their bosom glow, Clouds around their cliffs dark low'ring, Torrents down their steeps that flow. Ev'ry kindred tongue and nation, Him who gave you life adore; Earth and Heav'n and all creation, Praise His name for evermore. 3 Verdant fields and valleys blooming, Insect myriads own His care, Wild beasts thro' the forests roaming, Warbling tenants of the air. Kings and rulers shout his glory, People join the load acclaim, Maidens, youths and fathers hoary, Infants lisp His holy name. Ev'ry kindred tongue and nation, Him who gave you life adore; Earth and Heav'n and all creation, Praise His name for evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: [Angel bands to strains sweet sounding]

Nearer Home

Author: Alice Cary Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4505 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: O'er the hills the sun is setting Lyrics: 1. O’er the hills the sun is setting, And the eve is drawing on; Slowly drops the gentle twilight, For another day is gone; Gone for aye—its race is over, Soon the darker shades will come; Still, ’tis sweet to know at even, We are one day nearer home. 2. Worn and weary, oft the pilgrim Hails the setting of the sun; For the goal is one day nearer, And the journey nearly done; Thus we feel when o’er life’s desert, Heart and sandal-sore we roam As the twilight gathers over us, We are one day nearer home. 3. Nearer home! yes, one day nearer, To our Father’s house on high— To the green fields and the fountains Of the land beyond the sky. For the heavens grow brighter over us, And the lamps hang in the dome; And our tents are pitched still closer, For we’re one day closer home. 4. One day nearer, sings the sailor, As he glides the waters o’er, While the light is softly dying On his distant native shore; Thus the Christian on life’s ocean As his light boat cuts the foam, In the evening cries with rapture— I am one day nearer home.

O That I Could for Ever Dwell

Author: Elizabeth H. Reed Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5388 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1. O that I could for ever dwell, Delighted, at the Savior’s feet, Behold the form I love so well, And all His tender words repeat. 2. The world shut out from all my soul, And Heav’n brought in with all its bliss— O is there aught from pole to pole, One moment to compare to this! 3. This is the hidden life I prize— A life of penitential love; When most my follies I despise, And raise my highest thoughts above. 4. Thus would I live till nature fail, And all my former sins forsake; Then rise to God within the veil, And of eternal joys partake. Languages: English Tune Title: WEBER
