Forward! be our watchword

Author: H. Alford Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #596 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Forward! be our watchword, Steps and voices joined; Seek the things before us, Not a look behind: Burns the fiery pillar At our army's head; Who shall dream of shrinking, By our Captain led? Forward thro' the desert, Thro' the toil and fight! Jordan flows before us; Sion beams with light. 2 Glories upon glories Hath our God prepared, By the souls that love Him One day to be shared; Eye hath not beheld them, Ear hath never heard; Nor of these hath uttered Thought or speech a word; Forward! marching eastward Where the heaven is bright, Till the veil be lifted, Till our faith be sight. 3 Far o'er yon horizon Rise the city towers, Where our God abideth; That fair home is ours: Flash the streets with jasper, Shine the gates with gold; Flows the gladdening river Shedding joys untold. Thither, onward thither, In the Spirit's might! Pilgrims to your country, Forward into light! 4 To the eternal Father Loudest anthems raise: To the Son and Spirit Echo songs of praise: To the Lord of glory, Blessed Three in One, Be by men and angels Endless honour done. Weak are earthly praises, Dull the songs of night: Forward into triumph! Forward into light! Topics: General Processionals Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BONIFACE

Over Trackless Regions

Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8795 Meter: 11.11.11.11.11.11 First Line: Over trackless regions, from the morning land Lyrics: 1 Over trackless regions, from the morning land, Bearing costly treasures, came a seeking band— Wise men with devotion, from the morning land. Wheresoe’er the star led, in the ebon sky, Thither pressed those wise men, with uplifted eye, Following the star light in the ebon sky. 2 They would find the young king whom the star foretold; They would render homage, and their gifts unfold, Bowing low before Him, whom the star foretold. Jesu, Son of David, God’s Incarnate Word, Endless, unbegotten, by the wise adored— We would bow before Thee, God’s Incarnate Word. 3 Not without an offering would we seek our king; But with true devotion what is noblest, bring— With a gift so precious, would we seek our king. Jesu, King eternal, Son of God, divine, Man, yet still remaining of the Godhead Trine— See, our hearts we give Thee, Son of God, divine. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BONIFACE

Far o'er yon horizon

Hymnal: Voices of Praise #327 (1883) Lyrics: 1 Far o'er yon horizon Rise the city towers; Where our God abideth; That fair Home is ours: Flash the streets with jasper, Shine the gates with gold; Flows the gladdening river, Shedding joys untold. Thither, onward thither, In the Spirit's might; Pilgrims to your country, Forward into light. 2 Into God' high temple Onward as we press, Beauty spreads around us, Born of holiness; Arch, and vault, and carving, Lights of varied tone, Softened words and holy, Prayer and praise alone: Every thought upraising To our city bright, Where the tribes assemble Round the Throne of light. 3 Nought that city needeth Of these aisles of stone: Where the GODHEAD dwelleth, Temple there is none; All the Saints, that ever In these courts have stood, Are but babes, and feeding On the children's food. On through sign and token, Stars amid the night, Forward through the darkness, Forward into light. 4 To the eternal FATHER Loudest anthems raise; To the SON and SPIRIT Echo songs of praise; To the Lord of glory, Blessed THREE in ONE, Be by men and Angels Endless honours done; Weak are earthly praises; Dull the songs of night; Forward into triumph, Forward into light! Amen. Topics: Festivals Languages: English Tune Title: S. BONIFACE
