Judgment
Appears in 768 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22:17-20 First Line: Lo! he comes with clouds descending Lyrics: 1 Lo! he comes with clouds descending,
Once for favor'd sinners slain!
Thousand thousand saints attending,
Swell the triumph of his train:
Hallelujah!
Jesus now shall ever reign.
2 Every eye shall now behold him
Rob'd in dreadful majesty:
Those who set at nought and sold him,
Pierc'd, and nail'd him to the tree,
Deeply wailing
Shall the great messiah see.
3 Every island, sea, and mountain,
Heaven and earth shall flee away:
All who hate him, must confounded,
Hear the trump proclaim the day;
Come to judgment!
Come to judgment! come away!
4 Now redemption, long expected,
See in solemn pomp appear!
All his saints, by man rejected,
Now shall meet him in the air!
Hallelujah!
See the day of God appear!
5 Answer thine own bride and spirit,
Hasten, Lord, the general doom!
The new heaven and earth th' inherit,
Take thy pining exiles home:
All creation
Travels, groans, and bids thee come!
4 Yea! amen! let all adore thee,
High on thine exalted throne!
Sivior, take the power and glory:
Claim the kingdoms for thine own!
O come quickly!
Hallelujah! come, Lord, come! Topics: The Day of Judgment; The coming of the judge

The Lily of the Valley
Author: Charles W. Fry Meter: Irregular with refrain Appears in 393 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22:16 First Line: I have found a friend in Jesus Refrain First Line: He's the Lily of the Valley, Lyrics: 1 I have found a friend in Jesus, he’s everything to me,
he’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul;
the Lily of the Valley, in him alone I see
all I need to cleanse and make me fully whole.
In sorrow he’s my comfort, in trouble he’s my stay.
he tells me every care on him to roll.
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the bright and Morning Star,
he’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
2 He all my grief has taken, and all my sorrows borne;
in temptation he’s my strong and mighty tower;
I have all for him forsaken, and all my idols torn
from my heart, and now he keeps me by his power.
Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempts me sore,
Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal.
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the bright and Morning Star,
he’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
3 He will never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here,
while I live by faith and do his blessed will;
a wall of fire about me, I’ve nothing now to fear,
with his manna he my hungry soul shall fill.
Then sweeping up to glory, to see his blessed face,
where rivers of delight shall ever roll.
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the bright and Morning Star,
he’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul. Topics: The Grace of Jesus Christ In Praise of Christ Used With Tune: SALVATIONIST

O Holy City, Seen of John
Author: Walter Russell Bowie Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 89 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22 Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John,
Where Christ, the Lamb, does reign,
Within whose foursquare walls shall come
No night, nor need, nor pain,
And where the tears are wiped from eyes
That shall not weep again.
2 O shame to us who rest content
While lust and greed for gain
In street and shop and tenement
Wring gold from human pain,
And bitter lips in blind despair
Cry “Christ has died in vain!”
3 Give us, O God, the strength to build
The city that hath stood
Too long a dream, whose laws are love,
Whose ways are servanthood,
And where the sun that shines becomes
God’s grace for human good.
4 Already in the mind of God
That city rises fair.
Lo, how its splendor challenges
The souls that greatly dare,
And bids us seize the whole of life
And build its glory there.

Bright and Morning Star
Appears in 45 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22:16 First Line: Ye Worlds of Light, that roll so near Lyrics: 1 Ye Worlds of Light, that roll so near
The Saviour's Throne of shining Bliss,
O tell how mean your Glories are,
How faint, and few, compar'd with his.
2 We sing the bright and Morning-Star,
(JESUS, the Spring or Light and Love;)
See how its Rays, diffus'd from far,
Conduct us to the Realms above.
3 Its cheering Beams, spread wide abroad,
Point out the puzzled Christian's Way;
Still as he goes, he finds the Road
Enlighten'd with a constant Day.
4 [Then when the Eastern Magi brought
Their Royal Gifts, a Star appears,
Directs them to the Babe they sought,
And guides their Steps, and calms their Fears.]
5 When shall we reach the heavenly Place,
Where this bright Star will brightest shine;
Leave, far behind, these Scenes of Night,
And view a Lustre so Divine!

How Bright Appears the Morning Star
Author: William Mercer; Philipp Nicolai Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.4.8.4.8 Appears in 30 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22:16 Lyrics: 1 How bright appears the Morning Star,
with mercy beaming from afar;
the host of heaven rejoices.
O Righteous Branch, O Jesse's Rod,
the Son of Man and Son of God!
we too will lift our voices:
Jesus, Jesus, holy, holy, yet most lowly,
come, draw near us; great Immanuel, come and hear us.
2 Though circled by the hosts on high,
he deigned to cast a pitying eye
upon his helpless creature.
The whole creation's head and Lord,
by highest seraphim adored,
assumed our very nature;
Jesus, grant us, through your merit, to inherit
your salvation. Hear, O hear our supplication.
3 Rejoice, O heavens, and earth, reply;
with praise, O sinners, fill the sky
for this, his incarnation.
Incarnate God, put forth your power,
ride on, ride on, great Conqueror,
till all know your salvation.
Amen, amen! Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise be given evermore by earth and heaven.

The nations see and hail afar
the light in Judah shining.
Thou David's son of Jacob's race,

Lowly, holy, great and glorious,
thou victorious Prince of graces,
filling all the heav'nly places.
2 Now richly to my waiting heart,
O thou, my God, deign to impart
the grace of love undying.
In thy blest body let me be,
e'en as the branch is in the tree,
thy life my life supplying.
Sighing, crying, for the savor
of thy favor; resting never
till I rest in thee forever.
3 Thou, mighty Father, in thy Son
didst love me ere thou hadst begun
this ancient world's foundation.
Thy Son hath made a friend of me,
and when in spirit him I see,
I joy in tribulation.
What bliss is this! He that liveth
to me giveth life forever;
nothing me from him can sever.

Oh, for a closer walk with God
Author: William Cowper (1731-1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,367 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22:17 Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a closer walk with God,
a calm and heavenly frame,
a light to shine upon the road
that leads me to the Lamb!
2 Where is the blessedness I knew
when first I saw the Lord?
Where is the soul-refreshing view
of Jesus and his word?
3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed!
How sweet their memory still!
But they have left an aching void
the world can never fill.
4 Return, O Holy Dove! return,
sweet messenger of rest!
I hate the sins that made thee mourn,
and drove thee from my breast.
5 The dearest idol I have known,
whate'er that idol be,
help me to tear it from thy throne,
and worship only thee.
6 So shall my walk be close with God,
calm and serene my frame;
so purer light shall mark the road
that leads me to the Lamb. Topics: Our Response to Christ In Devotion; Our Response to Christ In Penitence; Holy Spirit name and images for; Penitence Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM (FENWICK)

Jerusalem the golden
Author: Bernard of Cluny (12th century); John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 910 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 21, 22 Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem the golden,
with milk and honey blessed,
beneath your contemplation
sink heart and voice oppressed:
I know not, oh, I know not
what joys await us there,
what radiancy of glory,
what bliss beyond compare.
2 They stand, those halls of Zion
all jubilant with song,
and radiant with the angels
and all the martyr throng;
the Prince is ever in them,
the daylight is serene,
the pastures of the blessèd
are decked in glorious sheen.
3 There is the throne of David;
and there, from care released,
the shout of those who triumph,
the song of those who feast;
and they who, with their Leader,
have conquered in the fight,
for ever and for ever
are clad in robes of white.
4 O sweet and blessèd country,
the home of God's elect!
O sweet and blessèd country
that eager hearts expect!
Jesus in mercy bring us
to that dear land above,
where you, with God the Father
and Spirit, reign in love. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Church Celebrates - Oneness with the Church in Heaven; Communion of Saints; Funerals general; Heaven Used With Tune: EWING
