The Homeland

Author: Hugh R. Haweis Hymnal: Christ in Song #855 (1908) Topics: Special Selections Solos; Special Selections Choir or Quartet First Line: The Homeland! O the Homeland! Lyrics: 1. The Homeland! O the Homeland! The land of the freeborn! There's no night in the Homeland, But aye the fadeless morn; I'm sighing for the Homeland, My heart is aching here; There is no pain in the Homeland To which I'm drawing near; There is no pain in the Homeland To which I'm drawing near. 2. My Lord is in the Homeland, With angels bright and fair; There's no sin in the Homeland, And no temptation there; The music of the Homeland Is ringing in my ears; And when I think of the Homeland My eyes are filled with tears; And when I think of the Homeland My eyes are filled with tears. 3. The dwellers in the Homeland Are beck'ning me to come, Where neither death nor sorrow Invades their holy home; O dear, dear native country! O rest and peace above! Christ bring us all to the Homeland Of Thy redeeming love; Christ bring us all to the Homeland Of Thy redeeming love. Languages: English Tune Title: [The Homeland! O the Homeland!]

The Crowning Day

Author: El. Nathan Hymnal: Christ in Song #857 (1908) Topics: Special Selections Solos; Special Selections Choir or Quartet First Line: Our Lord is now rejected Lyrics: 1. Our Lord is now rejected, And by the world disowned, By the many still neglected, And by the few enthroned, But soon He'll come in glory, The hour is drawing nigh, For the crowning day is coming by and by. Oh, the crowning day is coming, Is coming by and by, When our Lord shall come in "power," And "glory" from on high, Oh, the glorious night will gladden, Each waiting watchful eye, In the crowning day that's coming by and by. 2. The heav'ns shall glow with splendor, But brighter far than they The saints shall shine in glory, As Christ shall them array, The beauty of the Saviour, Shall dazzle ev'ry eye, In the crowning day that's coming by and by. Oh, the crowning day is coming, Is coming by and by, When our Lord shall come in "power," And "glory" from on high, Oh, the glorious night will gladden, Each waiting watchful eye, In the crowning day that's coming by and by. 3. Our pain shall then be over, We'll sin and sigh no more, Behind us all of sorrow, And naught but joy before, A joy in our Redeemer, As we to Him are nigh, In the crowning day that's coming by and by. Oh, the crowning day is coming, Is coming by and by, When our Lord shall come in "power," And "glory" from on high, Oh, the glorious night will gladden, Each waiting watchful eye, In the crowning day that's coming by and by. 4. Let all that look for, hasten The coming joyful day, By earnest consecration, To walk the narrow way, By gath'ring in the lost ones, For whom our Lord did die, For the crowning day that's coming by and by. Oh, the crowning day is coming, Is coming by and by, When our Lord shall come in "power," And "glory" from on high, Oh, the glorious night will gladden, Each waiting watchful eye, In the crowning day that's coming by and by.

Psalm 68 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.144 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Mercies common and special First Line: Let God arise in all his might Lyrics: Let God arise in all his might, And put the troops of hell to flight, As smoke that sought to cloud the skies Before the rising tempest flies. [He comes arrayed in burning flames Justice and Vengeance are his names: Behold his fainting foes expire, Like melting wax before the fire.] He rides and thunders through the sky; His name, Jehovah, sounds on high Sing to his name, ye sons of grace; Ye saints, rejoice before his face. The widow and the fatherless Fly to his aid in sharp distress; In him the poor and helpless find A Judge that's just, a Father kind. He breaks the captive's heavy chain, And prisoners see the light again; But rebels that dispute his will Shall dwell in chains and darkness still. Kingdoms and thrones to God belong; Crown him, ye nations, in your song: His wondrous names and powers rehearse; His honors shall enrich your verse. He shakes the heav'ns with loud alarms; How terrible is God in arms! In Isr'el are his mercies known, Isr'el is his peculiar throne. Proclaim him King, pronounce him blest; He's your defence, your joy, your rest: When terrors rise and nations faint, God is the strength of every saint. Scripture: Psalm 68:1-6 Languages: English

Psalm 68 Part 2

Not Sinai's mountain could appear More glorious when the Lord was there; While he pronounced his dreadful law, And struck the chosen tribes with awe. How bright the triumph none can tell, When the rebellious powers of hell, That thousand souls had captive made, Were all in chains like captives led. Raised by his Father to the throne, He sent the promised Spirit down With gifts and grace for rebel men, That God might dwell on earth again. Scripture: Psalm 68:17-18 Languages: English
