Go to the grave in all thy glorious prime
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #582 (1917) Topics: Grave, the; Grave, the; Christian Triumph; The Christian Life Time, Death, Eternity; Death Fear of removed; Death Of an Adult Lyrics: 1 Go to the grave in all thy glorious prime,
In full activity of zeal and power;
A Christian cannot die before his time;
The Lord's appointment is the servant's hour.
2 Go to the grave: at noon from labour cease;
Rest on thy sheaves, thy harvest task is done;
Come from the heat of battle, and in peace,
Soldier! go home; with thee the fight is won.
3 Go to the grave, for there thy Saviour lay
In death's embraces, ere He rose on high;
And all the ransomed, by that narrow way,
Pass to eternal life beyond the sky.
4 Go to the grave? No, take thy seat above!
Be thy pure spirit present with the Lord,
Where thou for faith and hope hast perfect love,
And open vision for the written word. Languages: English Tune Title: TOULON

Who are these like stars appearing
Author: Heinrich T. Schenk; Frances E. Cox Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #602 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Christians Triumph of Lyrics: 1 Who are these like stars appearing,
These before God's throne who stand?
Each a golden crown is wearing;
Who are all this glorious band?
Alleluia! hark, they sing,
Praising loud their heav'nly King.
2 Who are these of dazzling brightness,
These in God's own truth arrayed,
Clad in robes of purest whiteness,
Robes whose lustre ne'er shall fade,
Ne'er be touched by time's rude hand?
Whence come all this glorious band?
3 These are they who have contended
For their Saviour's honor long,
Wrestling on till life was ended,
Foll'wing not the sinful throng;
These, who well the fight sustained,
Triumph through the Lamb have gained.
4 These are they whose hearts were riven,
Sore with woe and anguish tried,
Who in prayer full oft have striven
With the God they glorified;
Now, their painful conflict o'er,
God has bid them weep no more.
5 These like priests have watched and waited,
Off'ring up to Christ their will;
Soul and body consecrated,
Day and night to serve him still:
Now in God's most holy place
Blest they stand before his face.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS OLD
Who are these like stars appearing
Jerusalem the golden
Author: Bernard of Cluny, 12th century; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #604 (1961) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Christians Triumph of Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem the golden,
With milk and honey blest,
Beneath thy contemplation
Sink heart and voice oppressed.
I know not, O 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 an angel,
And all the martyr throng.
The Prince is ever in them,
The daylight is serene;
The pastures of the blessed
Are decked in glorious sheen.
3 There is the throne of David;
And there, from care released,
The song of them that triumph,
The shout of them that feast;
And they who with their Leader
Have conquered in the fight,
For ever and for ever
Are clad in robes of white.
4 O sweet and blessed country,
The home of God's elect!
O sweet and blessed 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.
Amen. Scripture: Revelation 21:18 Languages: English Tune Title: EWING
Jerusalem the golden
Hark! the sound of holy voices
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #607 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Christians Triumph of Lyrics: 1 Hark! the sound of holy voices,
chanting at the crystal sea,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia! Lord, to thee:
Multitude, which none can number,
like the stars in glory stand
Clothed in white apparel, holding
palms of vict'ry in their hand.
2 They have come from tribulation,
and have washed their robes in blood,
Washed them in the blood of Jesus;
tried they were, and firm they stood;
Mocked, imprisoned, stoned, tormented,
sawn asunder, slain with sword,
They have conquered death and Satan
by the might of Christ the Lord.
3 Marching with thy cross their banner,
they have triumphed, following
Thee, the Captain of salvation,
thee, their Saviour and their King;
Gladly, Lord, with thee they suffered;
gladly, Lord, with thee they died;
And by death to life immortal
they were born and glorified.
4 God of God, the One-begotten,
Light of light, Emmanuel,
In whose body joined together
all the saints for ever dwell;
Pour upon us of thy fullness
that we may for evermore
God the Father, God the Son, and
God the Holy Ghost adore.
Amen. Scripture: Hebrews 11:36-37 Languages: English Tune Title: SANCTUARY
Hark! the sound of holy voices
Brief life is here our portion
Author: John M. Neale; Bernard of Cluny Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #607 (1899) Topics: Christians Triumph of Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion;
Brief sorrow, short-lived care;
The life that knows no ending,
The tearless life, is there;
Oh, happy retribution!
Short toil, eternal rest;
For mortals, and for sinners,
A mansion with the blest!
2 There grief is turned to pleasure,--
Such pleasure as below
No human voice can utter,
No human heart can know;
And after fleshly weakness,
And after this world's night,
And after storm and whirlwind,
Are calm and joy and light.
3 For thee, O dear, dear country!
Mine eyes their vigils keep;
For very love, beholding
Thy happy name they weep:
The mention of thy glory
Is unction to the breast,
And medicine in sickness,
And love, and life, and rest.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE'S, BOLTON
