Through the night of doubt and sorrow

Author: Bernhard S. Ingemann; Sabine Baring-Gould Hymnal: The Hymnal #539b (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Processional Lyrics: Through the night of doubt and sorrow Onward goes the pilgrim band, Singing songs of expectation, Marching to the promised land. Clear before us through the darkness Gleams and burns the guiding light: Brother clasps the hand of brother, Stepping fearless through the night. One, the light of God's own presence, O'er his ransomed people shed, Chasing far the gloom and terror, Brightening all the path we tread: One, the object of our journey, One, the faith which never tires, One, the earnest looking forward, One, the hope our God inspires. One, the strain the lips of thousands Lift as from the heart of one; One the conflict, one the peril, One, the march in God begun: One, the gladness of rejoicing On the far eternal shore, Where the One Almighty Father Reigns in love for evermore. 500 Onward therefore, pilgrim brothers, Onward, with the cross our aid! Bear its shame, and fight its battle, Till we rest beneath its shade! Soon shall come the great awaking; Soon the rending of the tomb; Then the scattering of all shadows, And the end of toil and gloom! Tune Title: HARVARD HYMN

Onward, Christian soldiers

Author: Sabine Baring-Gould Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #541a (1899) Topics: Processional Lyrics: 1 Onward, Christian solders, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. Christ, the royal Master, Leads against the foe; Forward into battle, See His banners go. Refrain: Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. 2 Like a mighty army, Moves the Church of God; Brothers, we are treading Where the saints have trod; We are not divided, All one body we, One in hope and doctrine, One in charity. [Refrain] 3 Crowns and thrones may perish, Kingdoms rise and wane, But the Church of Jesus Constant will remain; Gates of hell can never 'Gainst the Church prevail; We have Christ's own promise, And that cannot fail. [Refrain] 4 Onward, then, ye people, Join our happy throng; Blend with ours your voices In the triumph-song; Glory, laud, and honor, Unto Christ the King; This through countless ages, Men and angels sing. [Refrain] Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GERTRUDE

I heard a sound of voices

Author: Godfrey Thring Hymnal: The Hymnal #542b (1916) Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Topics: Processional Lyrics: I heard a sound of voices Around the great white throne, With harpers harping on their harps To him that sat thereon: "Salvation, glory, honour!" I heard the song arise, As through the courts of heaven it rolled In wondrous harmonies. From every clime and kindred, And nations from afar, As serried ranks returning home In triumph from a war, I heard the saints upraising, The myriad hosts among, In praise of him who died and lives, Their one glad triumph song. 503 I saw the holy city, The New Jerusalem, Come down from heaven, a bride adorned With jeweled diadem; The flood of crystal waters Flowed down the golden street; And nations brought their honours there, And laid them at her feet. And there no sun was needed, Nor moon to shine by night, God's glory did enlighten all, The Lamb himself the light; And there his servants serve him, And, life's long battle o'er, Enthroned with him, their Savior, King, They reign for evermore. O great and glorious vision! The Lamb upon his throne; O wondrous sight for man to see! The Savior with his own: To drink the living waters And stand upon the shore, Where neither sorrow, sin, nor death Shall ever enter more. O Lamb of God who reignest! Thou bright and morning Star, Whose glory lightens that new earth Which now we see from far! O worthy Judge eternal! When thou dost bid us come, Then open wide the gates of pearl And call thy servants home. Amen. Tune Title: ALFORD

Forward! be our watchword

Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #542 (1899) Topics: Processional 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, Zion 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 vail be lifted, Till our faith be sight! 3 To the Father's glory Loudest anthems raise; To the Son and Spirit Echo songs of praise; To the Lord Jehovah, Blessed Three in One, Be by men and angels Endless honor done. Weak are earthly praises, Dull the songs of night; Forward into triumph Forward into Light! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BONIFACE

Jerusalem! high tower thy glorious walls

Author: Johann M. Meyfart; William R. Whittingham Hymnal: The Hymnal #543b (1916) Meter: 10.6.10.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Processional Lyrics: Jerusalem! high tower thy glorious walls, Would God I were in thee! Desire of thee my longing heart enthralls, Desire at home to be: Wide from the world outleaping, O'er hill, and vale, and plain, My soul's strong wing is sweeping, Thy portals to attain. O gladsome day and yet more gladsome hour! When shall that hour have come, When my rejoicing soul its own free power May use in going home? Itself to Jesus giving In trust to his own hand, To dwell among the living In that blest Fatherland. Great fastness thou of honour! thee I greet: Throw wide thy gracious gate, An entrance free to give these longing feet, At last released, though late, From wretchedness and sinning, And life's long, weary way; And now, of God's gift, winning Eternity's bright day. Unnumbered choirs before the Lamb's high throne There shout the jubilee, With loud resounding peal and sweetest tone, In blissful ecstasy: 505 A hundred thousand voices Take up the wondrous song; Eternity rejoices God's praises to prolong. Tune Title: WHITTINGHAM

Know ye not your Captain's power? 3 Let your drooping hearts be glad; March in heavenly armor clad: Fight, nor think the battle long, Victory soon shall tune your song. 4 Let not sorrow dim your eye, Soon shall every tear be dry; Let not woe your course impede, Great your strength, if great your need. 5 Onward then to battle move, More than conquerors ye shall prove; Though opposed by many a foe, Christian soldiers, onward go.
