Christ Our King To Heaven Ascendeth

Author: John H. Hopkins, Jr. 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 alone is all in 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!

Author: William Augustus Muhlenberg Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 372 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Saviour, who Thy flock art feeding, With the shepherd's kindest care, All the feeble gently leading, While the lambs Thy bosom share, Now, these little ones receiving, Fold them in Thy gracious arm; There, we know, Thy Word believing, Only there secure from harm. 2 Never, from Thy pasture roving, Let them be the lion's prey; Let Thy tenderness, so loving, Keep them through life's dangerous way. Then within Thy fold eternal Let them find a resting-place, Feed in pastures ever vernal, Drink the rivers of Thy grace. Amen.

Author: J. H. Kuhlman Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Hark! the King of heav'n is calling Lyrics: 1 Hark! the King of heav'n is calling Laborers to do His work; Go, saith He, into My vineyard, Go at once, and do not shirk! In the morning hours He seeks you, When the dew is on the grass; Serve Him then with young endeavor, Ere the flush of youth shall pass. 2 Thro' the forenoon of their lifetime, Ev'ry day and ev'ry year, In His Church the Lord is calling, Calling those that will not hear. Noon and afternoon are passing, And the shadows grow apace, While so many still are standing Idle in the market place. 3 Swift the twilight is advancing, Bringing the eleventh hour; One more call, O men and women, Serve Him with your waning pow'r! Then at last the quiet evening And the sunset in the West, When the Master of the vineyard Calls the workers home to rest.
