As when the weary traveler gains
Author: Newton Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 205 hymnals Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:8 Lyrics: 1 As when the weary traveler gains
The height of some o'erlooking hill,
His heart revives, if, 'cross the plains,
He eyes his home, though distant still.
2 So when the Christian pilgrim views,
By faith, his mansion in the skies,
The sight his fainting strength renews,
And wings his speed to reach the prize.
3 'Tis there, he says, I am to dwell
With Jesus in the realms of day;
Then shall I bid my cares farewell,
And he will wipe my tears away.

Rest from your loved employ:
the battle fought, the victory won,
enter your Master's joy.

labor and sorrow cease;
and life's long warfare closed at last,
your soul is found in peace.

soul of the just, set free;
blessed by your memory,
and blessed your bright example be.
4 Now, toil and conflict o'er,
go, take with saints your place;
but go as each has gone before,
a sinner saved by grace.

Praise be your new employ,
and, while eternal ages run,
rest in your Savior's joy. Topics: Death and Life to Come; Christian vocation; Death of Believers; Funeral and memorial service Used With Tune: ST. MICHAEL

O What Their Joy and Their Glory Must Be
Author: Peter Abelard (1079-1142); John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 137 hymnals Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:6-8 Lyrics: 1 O what their joy and their glory must be,
those endless sabbaths the blessed ones see:
crown for the valiant, to weary ones rest:
God shall be all and in all ever blest.
2 What are the monarch, the court, and the throne?
What are the peace and the joy that they own?
O that the blest ones, who in it have share,
all that they feel could as fully declare!
3 Truly Jerusalem name we that shore,
vision of peace, that brings joy evermore;
wish and fulfillment can be severed ne'er,
nor the thing prayed for come short of the prayer.
4 There, where no troubles distraction can bring,
we the sweet anthems of Sion shall sing,
while for thy grace, Lord, their voices of praise
thy blessed people eternally raise.
5 Now, in the meantime, with hearts raised on high,
we for that country must yearn and must sigh,
seeking Jerusalem, dear native land,
through our long exile on Babylon's strand.
6 Low before God with our praises we fall,
of whom, and in whom, and through whom are all;
praise to the Father, and praise to the Son,
praise to the Spirit, with them ever one. Topics: Communion of Saints Used With Tune: O QUANTA QUALIA

O Little Flock, Fear Not the Foe
Author: Jacob Fabricius, 1593-1654; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-78 Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 106 hymnals Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:18 Lyrics: 1 O little flock, fear not the foe
Who madly seeks your overthrow;
Dread not his rage and pow'r.
And though your courage sometimes faints,
His seeming triumph o'er God's saints
Lasts but a little hour.
2 Be of good cheer; your cause belongs
To Him who can avenge your wrongs;
Leave it to Him, our Lord.
Though hidden yet from mortal eyes,
His Gideon shall for you arise,
Uphold you and His Word.
3 As true as God's own Word is true,
Not earth nor hell's satanic crew
Against us shall prevail.
Their might? A joke, a mere facade!
God is with us and we with God—
Our vict'ry cannot fail.
4 Amen, Lord Jesus, grant our prayer;
Great Captain, now Thine arm make bare,
Fight for us once again!
So shall Thy saints and martyrs raise
A mighty chorus to Thy praise
Forevermore. Amen.
