Awake, arise, and greet the dawning day

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: Awake, arise, and greet the dawning day, See, on the hills, the morning beams are shed; Wipe from your eyes the tears of grief away, For lo, the Christ is risen, Who was dead. Awake, arise, nor seek the empty tomb, He is not there, Who died by cruel men; But, as the sun that rises from the gloom, He hath arisen, nor sets in night again. 39 Woeful the day when sin and death assailed, Day died at noon, and hope despairing fled; Long was the night, but morning hath prevailed, Sin is o'erthrown, and death itself is dead. Awake, arise, and as the angel throng Welcomed the Christ on earth, in weakness born, Break into praise, and with triumphant song Welcome the dawning of a fairer morn.

And Is It So?

Author: John N. Darby Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: And is it so--I shall be like Thy Son? Lyrics: 1. And is it so—I shall be like Thy Son? Is this the grace which He for me has won? Father of glory (thought beyond all thought!)— In glory, to His own blest likeness brought! 2. Oh, Jesus, Lord, who loved me like to Thee? Fruit of Thy work, with Thee, too, there to see Thy glory, Lord, while endless ages roll, Myself the prize and travail of Thy soul. 3. Yet it must be: Thy love had not its rest Were Thy redeemed not with Thee fully blest. That love that gives not as the world, but shares All it possesses with its loved co-heirs. 4. Nor I alone; Thy loved ones all, complete In glory, round Thee there with joy shall meet, All like Thee, for Thy glory like Thee, Lord, Object supreme of all, by all adored. 5. The heart is satisfied; can ask no more All thought of self is now forever o’er: Christ, its un-mingled object, fills the heart In blest adoring love—the endless part. 6. Father of mercies, in Thy presence bright All this shall be unfolded in the light; Thy children all, with joy Thy counsels know Fulfilled; patient in hope, while here below. Used With Tune: EVENTIDE

Honor and Glory, Thanksgiving and Praise

Author: Anonymous; Edward A. Dayman Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Honor and glory, thanksgiving and praise, Maker of all things, to Thee we upraise; God the Almighty, the Father, the Lord; God by the angels obeyed and adored. 2. Thou art the Father of Heaven and earth; Worlds uncreated to Thee owe their birth; All the creation, Thy voice when it heard, Started to life and to light at Thy Word. 3. Onward the sun and the moon and their march Span with the rainbow the firmament’s arch; Stars yet unknown, and whose light is to come, Find in creation their place and a home. 4. Earth with the mountain, the river, the plain, Sky with the dew-drop, the wind, and the rain, Beast of the forest, wild bird of the air, All are Thy creatures, and all are Thy care. 5. Ocean the restless, and waters that swell, Lightnings that flash over flood, over fell, Own Thee the Master Almighty, and call Thee the Creator, the Father, of all. 6. Yea, Thou art Father of all, and Thy love Pity for man that is fallen doth move; Guide us in life, and protect to the last; And, at Thine Advent, Lord, pardon the past.

Joyfully, joyfully, onward I move

Author: Wm. Hunter Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 322 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Joyfully, joyfully, onward I move, Bound to the land of bright spirits above; Angelic choristers, sing as I come, Joyfully, joyfully haste to thy home! Soon, with my pilgrimage ended below, Home to the land of delight will I go; Pilgrim and stranger no more shall I roam; Joyfully, joyfully resting at home. 2 Friends, fondly cherished, have passed on before; Waiting, they watch me approaching the shore; Singing, to cheer me through death's chilling gloom, Joyfully, joyfully haste to thy home. Sounds of sweet melody fall on my ear; Harps of the blessed, your voices I hear! Rings with the harmony heaven's high dome; Joyfully, joyfully haste to thy home. 3 Death, with thy weapons of war, lay me low; Strike, king of terrors! I fear not the blow; Jesus hath broken the bars of the tomb; Joyfully, joyfully will I go home. Bright will the morn of eternity dawn, Death shall be banished, his scepter be gone; Joyfully, then, shall I witness his doom, Joyfully, joyfully, safely at home.
