Eternal Father, Thou hast said
Author: Dr. R. Palmer, 1808-1887 Appears in 74 hymnals Topics: Church Triumphant Lyrics: 1 Eternal Father, Thou hast said,
That Christ all glory shall obtain;
That He who once a sufferer bled
Shall o'er the world a conqueror reign.
2 We wait Thy triumph, Saviour King;
Long ages have prepared Thy way;
Now all abroad Thy banner fling,
Set time's great battle in array.
3 Thy hosts are mustered to the field;
"The Cross! the Cross!" the battle-call:
The old grim towers of darkness yield,
And soon shall totter to their fall.
4 On mountain-tops the watch-fires glow,
Where scattered wide the watchmen stand;
Voice echoes voice, and onward flow
The joyous shouts from land to land.
5 O fill Thy Church with faith and power!
Bid her long night of weeping cease;
To groaning nations haste the hour
Of life and freedom, light and peace.
6 Come, Spirit, make Thy wonders known,
Fulfil the Father's high decree;
Then earth, the might of hell o'erthrown,
Shall keep her last great jubilee. Used With Tune: WALTON

All calm and courage, faith and hope;

As each and all shall need,
To rise like incense, each to Thee,
In noble thought and deed.
3 And hasten, Lord, that perfect day
When pain and death shall cease,
And Thy just rule shall fill the earth
With health, and light, and peace;
4 When ever blue the sky shall gleam,
And ever green the sod;
And man's rude work deface no more
The Paradise of God.

Risen from the tomb,
Lovingly He greets us,
Scatters fear and gloom;
Let His Church with gladness
Hymns of triumph sing,
For her Lord now liveth;
Death hath lost its sting. [Refrain]

Glorious Prince of life!

Aid us in our strife;
Make us more than conquerors,
Through Thy deathless love;
Bring us safe through Jordan
To Thy home above. [Refrain]

With milk and honey blest,
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,
Conjubilant with song
And bright with many an angel
And all the martyr throng.
The prince is ever in them;
The daylight is serene;
The pastures of the blessed
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,
Forever and forever
Are clad in robes of white.
4 Oh, sweet and blessed country
That eager hearts expect!
In mercy, Jesus, bring us
To that dear land of rest!
You are, with God the Father
And Spirit, ever blest. Used With Tune: EWING
Jerusalem the Golden
Blessed city, heavenly Salem
Author: John Mason Neale Appears in 77 hymnals Topics: The Church Triumphant Lyrics:
Blessed city, heavenly Salem,
Vision dear of peace and love,
Who of living stones art builded
In the height of heav'n above,
And, with angel hosts encircled,
As a bride dost earthward move;
463
From celestial realms descending,
Bridal glory round thee shed,
Meet for him whose love espoused thee,
To thy Lord shalt thou be led;
All thy streets and all thy bulwarks
Of pure gold are fashionèd.
Bright thy gates of pearl are shining,
They are open evermore;
And by virtue of his merits
Thither faithful souls do soar,
Who, for Christ's dear Name, in this world
Pain and tribulation bore.
Many a blow and biting sculpture
Polished well those stones elect,
In their places now compacted
By the heavenly Architect,
Who therewith hath willed for ever
That his palace should be decked.
Laud and honour to the Father,
Laud and honour to the Son,
Laud and honour to the Spirit,
Ever Three, and ever One,
Consubstantial, Co-eternal,
While unending ages run.
Amen.

Castillo fuerte es nuestro Dios
Author: Juan Bautista Cabrera, 1837-1916; Martín Lutero Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 42 hymnals Topics: The Church Triumphant Lyrics: 1 Castillo fuerte nuestro Dios,
Defensa y buen escudo;
Con su poder nos librará
En este trance agudo.
Con furia y con afán
Acósanos Satán;
Por armas deja ver
Astucia y gran poder:
Cual él no hay en la tierra.
2 Nuestro valor es nada aquí,
Con él todo es perdido;
Mas por nosotros pugnará
De Dios el escogido.
¿Sabéis quién es? Jesús,
El que venció en la cruz,
Señor de Sabaot,
Y pues Él sólo es Dios,
Él triunfa en la batalla.
3 Aun si están demonios mil
Prontos a devorarnos,
No temeremos, porque Dios
Sabrá aún prosperarnos.
Que muestre su vigor
Satán, y su furor
Dañarnos no podrá;
Pues condenado es ya
Por la Palabra santa.
4 Sin destruirla dejarán,
Aún mal de su grado,
Esta Palabra del Señor;
Él lucha a nuestro lado.
Que lleven con furor
Los bienes, vida, honor,
Los hijos, la mujer
Todo ha de perecer:
De Dios el reino queda.
