The Son of God goes forth to war
Author: Reginald Heber Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 846 hymnals Topics: Holy Days All Saints Lyrics:
The Son of God goes forth to war,
A kingly crown to gain;
His blood-red banner streams afar:
Who follows in his train?
Who best can drink his cup of woe,
Triumphant over pain;
Who patient bears his cross below,
He follows in his train.
The martyr first, whose eagle eye
Could pierce beyond the grave;
Who saw his Master in the sky,
And called on him to save.
Like him, with pardon on his tongue,
In midst of mortal pain,
He prayed for them that did the wrong:
Who follows in his train?
A glorious band, the chosen few,
On whom the Spirit came:
Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew,
And mocked the cross and flame.
They met the tyrant's brandished steel,
The lion's gory mane;
They bowed their necks the death to feel:
Who follows in their train?
A noble army, men and boys,
The matron and the maid,
Around the Savior's throne rejoice,
In robes of light arrayed.
They climbed the steep ascent of heaven
Through peril, toil, and pain:
O God, to us may grace be given
To follow in their train.
Amen.

O Day of Peace and Gladness
Author: C. Wordsworth Appears in 820 hymnals Topics: Lord's Day Lyrics: 1 O day of peace and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright;
On thee, the high and lowly
Who bow before the throne,
Sing, “Holy, holy, holy,”
To the Eternal One.
2 On thee at the creation
The light first had its birth;
On thee, for our salvation
Christ rose from depths of earth;
On thee, our Lord victorious,
The Spirit sent from heav’n;
And thus on thee most glorious,
A triple light was giv’n.
3 A day of sweet reflection
Thou art, a day of love,
A day to raise affection
From earth to things above.
New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We seek the rest remaining
In mansions of the blest.
4 Today on weary nations
The heav’nly manna falls;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams. Used With Tune: MENDEBRAS

Safely through another week
Author: John Newton Appears in 1,025 hymnals Topics: Worship The Lord's Day Lyrics: 1 Safely through another week,
God has brought us on our way:
Let us now a blessing seek,
Waiting in His courts to-day;
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest.
2 Mercies multiplied each hour
Through the week, our praise demand;
Guarded by Thy mighty power,
Fed and guided by Thy hand;
Though ungrateful we have been,
Only made returns of sin.
3 While we pray for pardoning grace,
Through the dear Redeemer's name,
Show Thy reconciled face,
Take away our sin and shame:
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in Thee.
4 Here we come Thy Name to praise;
Let us feel Thy presence near:
May Thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in Thy house appear:
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.
5 May thy Gospel's joyful sound
Conquer sinners, comfort saints;
Make the fruits of grace abound,
Bring relief for all complaints.
Thus may all our Sabbaths prove,
Till we join the Church above. Used With Tune: FREUEN WIR UNS ALL IN EIN

Christ, Whose Glory Fills the Skies
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 483 hymnals Topics: Lord's Day Evening Worship; Lord's Day Morning Worship Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Christ, the true, the only Light,
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
triumph o'er the shades of night;
Dayspring from on high, be near;
Daystar, in my heart appear.
2 Dark and cheerless is the morn
unaccompanied by thee;
joyless is the day's return
'til thy mercy's beams I see;
'til they inward light impart,
glad my eyes, and warm my heart.
3 Visit, then, this soul of mine;
pierce the gloom of sin and grief;
fill me, Radiancy divine;
scatter all my unbelief;
more and more thyself display,
shining to the perfect day. Scripture: Proverbs 4:18 Used With Tune: LUX PRIMA

Ljos yver Grav, Som oss Livsvoni gav
Author: Blix Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: First Easter Day High Mass Lyrics: 1 Ljos yver Grav,
Som oss Livsvoni gav,
Rann med Guds Son ifraa Daude.
Solrenning klaar
Som den vænaste Vaar
Steig yver Gravstader aude.
Ljoset og Livet fyr alle Mann
Straalande upp med vaar Frelsar rann.
2 Engelen kvad
Yver daudstille Stad:
Krist er med Siger uppstaden!
Sigrande vel
Yver Ormen fraa Hel
Bøtte han Brotet og Skaden.
Syndi er sonad og Saaret grødt,
Livet av Daude er atter født.
3 Kristus stod upp
Som det Livstre i Knupp,
Somi all Æra skal bløma.
Skapande Liv
Han alt Drepande driv,
Dauden fyr honom maa røma.
So ved det Livstre til Herrens Pris
Eingong me livna i Paradis.
4 Menneskjeson,
Du til livande Von
Ved di Uppreisning oss fødde!
Liv gjenom Grav
Ved din Dauade du gav,
Daa fyre BrOder du blødde.
Alle, som livande paa deg tru,
Døyande skal i ditt Ljos faa bu.
5 Trøyst i vaar Trong
Som ein Sumar med Song
Ut fraa din Gravstad lat lysa!
Ævelivs Von
Gjenom Trengsla og Tjon
Lat dine Truande hysa!
So me alt her uti Daudens Land
Smak den Sæla, du til oss vann!
6 Ljos yver Grav,
Fall som Solskin paa Hav,
Naar me fraa Verdi skal fara!
Lys oss i land
Til den livsæle Strand,
Fram til det Liv, som skal vara,
So me ved Ljoset fraa Paaskedag
Sæle kann liva i Englelag!
Ljos yver Grav, Som oss Livsvoni gav
