Jerusalem the golden

I know not, ah, 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 bright with many 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 them that triumph, the song of them that feast; and they, who with their leader have fully run the race, are robed in white for ever before their Saviour's face. 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 of rest; who art, with God the Father and Spirit, ever blest.

Author: J. Montgomery (1771-1854) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #350 (1987) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Advent 4 The Annunciation Lyrics: 1 Songs of praise the angels sang, heaven with alleluias rang when creation was begun; when God spoke, and it was done. 2 Songs of praise announced the dawn when the Prince of peace was born; songs of praise arose when He captive led captivity. 3 Heaven and earth must pass away — songs of praise shall crown that day! God will make new heavens and earth — songs of praise shall hail their birth! 4 And must we alone be dumb till that glorious kingdom come? No! the church delights to raise psalms and hymns and songs of praise. 5 Saints below, with heart and voice still in songs of praise rejoice; learning here by faith and love, songs of praise to sing above. 6 Hymns of glory, songs of praise, Father, these to you we raise; Saviour, Jesus, risen Lord, with the Spirit be adored.

A safe stronghold our God is still

Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546; Thomas Carlyle, 1795-1881 Hymnal: Common Praise #366 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: Advent I Year B; Lent II Year C; Proper 4 Year A Lyrics: 1 A safe stronghold our God is still, a trusty shield and weapon; he'll keep us clear from all the ill that hath us now o'ertaken. The ancient prince of hell hath risen with purpose fell; strong mail of craft and power he weareth in this hour; on earth is not his fellow. 2 With force of arms we nothing can, full soon were we down-ridden; but for us fights the proper man, whom God himself hath bidden. Ask ye, 'Who is this same?' Christ Jesus is his name, the Lord Sabaoth's Son; he, and no other one, shall conquer in the battle. *3 And were this world all devils o'er, and watching to devour us, we lay it not to heart so sore; not they can overpower us. And let the prince of ill look grim as e'er he will, he harms us not a whit; for why? His doom is writ; a word shall quickly slay him. 4 God's word, for all their craft and force, one moment will not linger, but, spite of hell, shall have its course; 'tis written by his finger. And though they take our life, goods, honour, children, wife, yet is their profit small; these things shall vanish all: the City of God remaineth.
