Now be the God of Israel bless'd

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #520 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christ his death and resurrection Lyrics: Now be the God of Isr'el blessed, Who makes his truth appear; His mighty hand fulfils his word, And all the oaths he sware. Now he bedews old David's root With blessings from the skies; He makes the Branch of Promise grow, The promised Horn arise. [John wns the prophet of the Lord, To go before his face; The herald which our Savior God Sent to prepare his ways. He makes the great salvation known, He speaks of pardoned sins; While grace divine, and heav'nly love, In its own glory shines. "Behold the Lamb of God," he cnes. "That takes our guilt away; I saw the Spirit o'er his head, On his baptizing day.] "Be every vale exalted high, Sink every mountain low; The proud must stoop, and humble souls Shall his salvation know. "The heathen realms with Isr'el's land Shall join in sweet accord And all that's born of man shall see The glory of the Lord. "Behold the Morning Star arise, Ye that in darkness sit; He marks the path that leads to peace, And guides our doubtful feet." Scripture: Luke 1:68 Languages: English

'Twas the commission of the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #525 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ his death and resurrection Lyrics: 'Twas the commission of our Lord, "Go teach the nations, and baptize:" The nations have received the word Since he ascended to the skies. He sits upon th' eternal hills, With grace and pardon in his hands; And sends his cov'nant with the seals, To bless the distant British lands. "Repent, and be baptized," he saith, For the remission of your sins:" And thus our sense assists our faith, And shows us what his gospel means. Our souls he washes in his blood, As water makes the body clean; And the good Spirit from our God Descends like purifying rain. Thus we engage ourselves to thee, And seal our cov'nant with the Lord; O may the great eternal Three In heav'n our solemn vows record! Scripture: Matthew 28:19 Languages: English

When the last trumpet's awful voice

Author: William Cameron Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #939 (1886) Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 When the last trumpet's awful voice This rending earth shall shake, When opening graves shall yield their charge, And dust to life awake, 2 Those bodies that corrupted fell, Shall incorrupt arise, And mortal forms shall spring to life Immortal in the skies. 3 Behold, what heavenly prophets sung Is now at last fulfilled; And Death yields up his ancient reign, And, vanquished, quits the field. 4 Let Faith exalt her joyful voice, And now in triumph sing: O Grave, where is thy victory? And where, O Death, thy sting? Tune Title: CHINA

When downward to the darksome tomb

Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #944 (1886) Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 When downward to the darksome tomb I thoughtful turn my eyes, Frail nature trembles at the gloom, And anxious fears arise. 2 Why shrinks my soul? In death's embrace Once Jesus captive slept; And angels, hovering o'er the place, His lowly pillow kept. 3 Thus shall they guard my sleeping dust, And as the Saviour rose, The grave again shall yield her trust, And end my deep repose. 4 My Lord, before to glory gone, Shall bid me come away, And calm and bright shall break the dawn Of heaven's eternal day. 5 Then let my faith each fear dispel, And gild with light the grave; To him my loftiest praises swell, Who died from death to save.

O! blest are they that mourn

Author: F. E. Belden Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #949 (1886) Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 O! blest are they that mourn, Their comfort will I be; For sorrows deep I oft have borne, With none to comfort me. 2 I've stood beside the grave, I weep with those that weep For I have felt death's chilling wave, And crossed its waters deep. 3 I have the keys of death, To me they have been given; I'll call again the fleeting breath, When portals dark are riven. 4 How blessed here to mourn, And there be comforted When Christ shall call again his own, And bring them from the dead!
