Lo, what a glorious sight appears

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 292 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo, what a glorious sight appears To our believing eyes! The earth and seas are passed away, And the old rolling skies. 2 From the third heaven, where God resides, That holy, happy place, The New Jerusalem comes down, Adorned with shining grace. 3 Attending angels shout for joy, And the bright armies sing; Ye saints, behold the sacred seat Of your descending King! 4 The God of glory down to men Removes his blest abode; Men are the objects of his love, And he their gracious God. 5 His own soft hand shall wipe the tears From every weeping eye; And pains, and groans, and griefs, and fears, And death itself, shall die. 6 How bright the vision! O, how long Shall this glad hour delay? Fly swifter round, ye wheels of time, And bring the welcome day! Topics: Reward of Saints Used With Tune: ST. PETER

Come, Happy Souls, Approach Your God

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 170 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, happy souls, approach your God With new melodious songs; Come, render to Almighty grace The tribute of your tongues. 2 So strange, so boundless was the love That pitied dying men, The Father sent His equal Son To give them life again. 3 Thy hands, dear Jesus, were not armed With a revenging rod. No hard commission to perform The vengeance of a God. 4 But all was mercy, all was mild, And wrath forsook the throne, When Christ on the kind errand came, And brought salvation down. 5 Here, sinners, you may heal your wounds, And wipe your sorrows dry: Trust in the mighty Savior’s name, And you shall never die.
