City of God, how broad and far
Author: Samuel Johnson, 1822-1882 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 169 hymnals Topics: The Temple The People of God Lyrics: 1 City of God, how broad and far
outspread your walls sublime!
The true your chartered freemen are
of every age and clime:
2 One holy Church, one army strong,
one steadfast, high intent;
one working band, one harvest-song,
one King omnipotent.
3 How purely has your speech come down
from man's primeval youth!
How grandly has your empire grown
of freedom, love, and truth!
4 How gleam your watch-fires through the night
with never-fainting ray!
How rise your towers, serene and bright,
to meet the dawning day!
5 In vain the surge's angry shock,
in vain the drifting sands:
unharmed upon the eternal Rock
the eternal city stands. Used With Tune: RICHMOND Text Sources: Altered by Compilers

Songs of praise the angels sang
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 547 hymnals Topics: The Temple Praise 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 awoke the morn
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 shall human voice 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 Borne upon their final breath,
songs of praise shall conquer death;
then, amidst eternal joy,
songs of praise their powers employ. Used With Tune: NORTHAMPTON
Songs of praise the angels sang
