The covenant
Author: William Cowper Appears in 201 hymnals First Line: Hear what God the Lord hath spoken Lyrics: 1 Hear what God the Lord hath spoken:
O my people, faint and few,
Comfortless, afflicted, broken,
Fair abodes I build for you;
Scenes of heartfelt tribulation
Shall no more perplex your ways;
You shall name your walls "Salvation,"
And your gates shall all be "Praise."
2 There, like streams that feed the garden,
Pleasures without end shall flow;
For the Lord, your faith rewarding,
All his bounty shall bestow.
Still in undisturbed possession
Peace and righteousness shall reign;
Never shall you feel oppression,
Hear the voice of war again.
3 Ye, no more your suns descending,
Waning moon no more shall see,
But, your griefs for ever ending,
Find eternal noon in me.
God shall rise, and shining o'er you,
Change to day the gloom of night;
He, the Lord, shall be your Glory,
God, your everlasting Light. Topics: Church Beloved of God; Church Institutions of; Communion of Saints At Lord's Table Scripture: Isaiah 49:14 Used With Tune: FORMOSA

There's a light upon the mountains
Author: Dr. Henry Burton, 1840- Appears in 54 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There's a light upon the mountains
and the day is at the spring,
When our eyes shall see the beauty
and the glory of the King:
Weary was our heart with waiting,
and the night-watch seemed so long,
But His triumph-day is breaking
and we hail it with a song.
2 In the fading of the starlight
we may see the coming morn;
And the lights of men are paling
in the splendours of the dawn:
For the eastern skies are glowing
as with light of hidden fire,
And the hearts of men are stirring
with the throbs of deep desire.
3 He is breaking down the barriers,
He is casting up the way;
He is calling for His angels
to build up the gates of day:
But His angels here are human,
not the shining hosts above;
For the drum-beats of His army
are the heart-beats of our love. Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Social Service; Kingdom of Christ (See Missions) Of God Used With Tune: FALFIELD

Christ our King to heaven ascendeth
Author: J. H. Hopkins Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ our King to heaven ascendeth,
Past the blue sky's utmost bound;
Christ our King to heaven ascendeth,
Clouds of angels close him round.
Alleluia, alleluia,
Alleluia loud they cry;
Christ our King to heaven ascendeth,
Glory be to God on high!
2 Our High-Priest to heaven ascendeth,
Lo! the Lamb, as it were slain!
Our High-Priest to heaven ascendeth,
On God's throne He lives again;
Pleads His sacrifice of wonder,
Claims the fruit of all His pain;
Our High-Priest to heaven ascendeth,
Peace on earth, good-will to men.
3 Christ our Lord to heaven ascendeth,
Cloven tongues of fire appear.
Christ our Lord to heaven ascendeth,
Lo! the rushing wind is here!
Mighty armies forth with banners
Conquering and to conquer go:
Christ our Lord to heaven ascendeth,
He shall reign o'er all below.
4 Christ now reigns, the King of glory,
All His foes before Him fall;
Christ now reigns, the King of glory,
He shall triumph over all.
King of kings shall men behold Him,
Lord of lords for evermore:
Christ now reigns, the King of glory,
Bow before Him, and adore!
Amen.
