Prepared the trumpet’s call to greet
What Adam's Disobedience Cost
Author: Fred Pratt Green; Carol Bechtel Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What Adam’s disobedience cost,
let Holy Scripture say:
ourselves estranged, an Eden lost,
and then a judgment day: each day a judgment day.
2 An ark of mercy rode the flood,
but we, where waters swirled,
rebuilt, impatient of the good,
another fallen world: an unrepentant world.
3 A little child is Adam’s heir,
is Adam’s hope and Lord,
sing joyful carols everywhere,
that Eden is restored: in Jesus is restored.
4 Regained is Adam’s blessedness:
the angels sheathe their swords;
in joyful carols all confess
the kingdom is the Lord’s: the glory is the Lord’s!
5 Renewed, restored we look ahead
to glimpse that glorious day
when in the new Jerusalem
all griefs will pass away. “Amen. Hallelujah!” Topics: Biblical Names and Places Eden; Church Year Christmas; Fall and the Human Condition; God's Judgment; Jesus Christ King Scripture: Genesis 3:1-8 Used With Tune: DETROIT

Why should we fear the powers of Hell
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Why should we fear the powers of Hell,
Why should we be afraid?
Jesus conquer'd when he fell.
And rose our Lord and head.
2 His tortures and his dying pain,
His sorrows and his grief,
Have bursted the infernal chain,
And purchas'd our relief.
3 Death is in vict'ry swallow'd up,
Our freedom is obtain'd;
And Christ who is our life and hope,
Hath full redemption gain'd.
4 Now he has left his silent tomb,
And prov'd his mighty power;
We shall enjoy the life to come!
With him for ever more.
5 Come let us thank him for his love,
With all we can afford;
With saints on earth and hosts above,
Praise him our Mighty Lord. Topics: Easter Monday Scripture: Luke 24:13-35

A Vision of Heaven
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: O, Heaven is where no secret dread Lyrics:
O, heaven is where no secret dread
May haunt us by its power;
Where from the past no gloom is shed
Upon the present hour.
And there the living waters flow
Along the radiant shore;
The soul, now wandering here, shall know
Its burning thirst no more.
The burden of the stranger’s heart,
Which here unknown we bear,
Like the night-shadow shall depart
With our first wakening there.
And, borne on eagle’s wings afar,
Free thought shall claim its dower,
From every sphere, from every star,
Of glory and of power.
A Vision of Heaven

Guide thou, O God, the guardian hands
God hath commanded in his word
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God hath commanded in his word,
To teach the tender youth:
In the discipline of the Lord,
And knowledge of the truth.
2 Therefore the christian school is taught,
That rising youth may know,
And learn what ev'ry christian ought
In all their lives to do.
3 It is a pleasing thing to see,
Where virtue is impress'd;
And youth is taught the righteous way,
The way that makes them bless'd.
4 All pious parents do rejoice,
When christian knowledge grows;
And when their children take advice,
Such as the Lord bestows.
5 Dear children take advice and learn,
Obey the Lord's command!
And let it be your chief concern,
His word to understand.
6 God's blessing then will rest on you,
And blessed shall you be;
You shall be blest in all ye do:
Blest to eternity. Topics: Of Catechising or School

'Tis past--the dreadful stormy night
As faithful shepherds of the Lord
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As faithful shepherds of the Lord
Must we accounted be,
Who minister and teach the word
With real sincerity.
2 No more the Lord himself requests
Than to be just and true,
And ever act as for the best
As far as we do know.
3 Though we are oft reproach'd & blam'd
When we do as we ought,
But O! the truth can ne'er be sham'd
Or to dishonor brought.
4 Our thoughts and actions all are known,
To him who judgeth right;
The Lord who knows whate'er is done
Brings all things to the light.
5 O let us then with patience wait!
And watch with humble pray'r,
Till God, whose ways are just and straight,
In righteousness appear. Topics: Third Sunday in Advent For the Epistle Scripture: 1 Corinthians 4:1-5
