Herald! Sound the note of judgement
Hark, a Herald Voice Is Sounding
Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 133 hymnals Scripture: Luke 3:1-18 Lyrics: 1 Hark, a herald voice is sounding:
"Christ is nigh," it seems to say.
"Cast away the dreams of darkness,
O ye children of the day!"
2 Wakened by the solemn warning,
let the earth-bound soul arise;
Christ, our sun, all sloth dispelling,
shines upon the morning skies.
3 Lo, the Lamb, so long expected,
comes with pardon down from heaven;
let us all, with deep repentance,
pray that we may be forgiven,
4 that when next he comes with glory,
and the world is wrapped in fear,
with his mercy he may shield us,
and with words of love draw near.
5 Honour, glory, might, and blessing
to the Father and the Son,
with the everlasting Spirit,
while eternal ages run. Topics: Advent; John, the Baptist; Repentance Used With Tune: MERTON Text Sources: Latin (10th cent.)
Hark, a Herald Voice Is Sounding
He will gather the wheat in his garner
Author: Harriet B. M'Keever Appears in 30 hymnals Scripture: Luke 3:17 First Line: When Jesus shall gather the nations Lyrics: 1 When Jesus shall gather the nations,
Before him at last to appear,
Then how shall we stand in the Judgment,
When summoned our sentence to hear?
Chorus:
He will gather the wheat in his garner,
But the chaff will he scatter away;
Then how shall we stand in the Judgment
Of the great resurrection day?
2 Shall we hear, from the lips of the Saviour,
The words "Faithful servant, well done,"
Or, trembling with fear and with anguish,
Be banished away from his throne? [Chorus]
3 He will smile when he looks on his children,
And sees on the ransom'd his seal;
He will clothe them in heavenly beauty,
As low at his footstool they kneel. [Chorus]
4 Then let us be watching and waiting
With lamps burning steady and bright;
When the Bridegroom shall call to the wedding
O may we be ready for flight! [Chorus]
5 Thus living with hearts fixed on heaven,
In patience we wait for the time
When the days of our pilgrimage ended,
We'll bask in the presence divine. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Judgment and Second Advent Used With Tune: HE WILL GATHER THE WHEAT IN HIS GARNER
He will gather the wheat in his garner
