Countless Hosts Before God's Throne

Where the Lamb abideth,
And as God and Man His own
To life’s fountain guideth,
Now possess
Perfect bliss,
Which to us is wanting
And for which we’re panting.

Goodly beyond measure,
Is the lot which we shall share;
And how rich the treasure!
When we see
Bodily
Our beloved Savior,
As He is, forever.
3 May this ever blessed hope
Fill our hearts with gladness,
And ‘mid weakness bear us up,
Till from sin and sadness
We shall be
Wholly free
And above for ever
Praise our gracious Savior. Languages: English Tune Title: NASSAU

No man hath seen or heard
The joys our God prepareth
For them that love their Lord.

Thy face, Thy throne, Thy might;
With shouts shall they adore thee,
The true, eternal Light.
2 With Thee, their warfare ended,
Thy saints, from earth released,
Shall keep, with glories splendid,
Eternal holy feast.
There shall Thy sons and daughters
The tree of life partake,
Shall drink the living waters,
And bread with Thee shall break.
3 Thy constant praises sounding
Before Thy great white throne,
They all in joy abounding
Shall sing the song unknown:
Laud, honor, praise, thanksgiving
And glory ever be
To Thee, the everlasting
And blessed Trinity. Languages: English Tune Title: WIE SOLL ICH DICH EMPFANGEN
Thy Word, O God, Declareth
Brief is our journey through the years

Brief is our journey through the years
Day of judgment! Day of wonders
Author: John Newton (1725-1807) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #875 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come Lyrics: 1 Day of judgment! Day of wonders!
Hark the trumpet’s aweful sound.
Louder than a thousand thunders,
Shakes the vast creation round!
How the summons
Will the sinner’s heart confound!
2 See the judge, our nature wearing,
Clothed in majesty divine!
Ye who long for his appearing
Then shall say: This God is mine.
Gracious Saviour,
Own us in that day as thine.
3 Now the powers of nature, shaken
At his look, prepare to flee;
Souls in sin’s deep sleep must waken,
Summoned now his wrath to see;
Careless sinner,
What will then become of thee?
4 But to those who have confessed,
Loved and served the Lord below,
He will say: Come near, ye blessèd,
See the Kingdom I bestow.
You for ever
Shall my love and glory know!

And my dear Saviour has shown me the way;
Oft when I’m sad and temptations arise,
I look to my home far away.
Refrain:
My home is in Heaven, there is no parting there,
All will be happy, glorious, bright and fair;
There’ll be no sorrow, there will be no rears,
In that bright home Jar away.
2 Friends I shall see who have journeyed before
And landed safe on that beautiful shore;
I shall see Jesus, that will be my joy
In that bright home far away.
3 O who will journey to Heaven with me?
Jesus has died that we all may be free;
Come then to him who has laid up for you
A crown in that home far away.

My home is in Heaven, there is no parting there
I am bound for the promised land

And cast a wistful eye
To Canaan’s fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie.

I am bound for the promised land,
I’m bound for the promised land;
O who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land.
2 That bright, transporting, rapturous scene
That rises to my sight,
Sweet fields arrayed in living green,
And rivers of delight.
3 There generous fruits that never fail,
On trees immortal grow;
There rocky hills, and brooks and vales,
With milk and honey flow.
4 O’er all those wide extended plains
Shines one eternal day;
There God, the Son, forever reigns
And scatters night away.
5 Soon will the Lord my soul prepare
For joys beyond the sky,
Where never-ceasing music rolls,
And praises never die.

I am bound for the promised land
Servant of God, well done
Author: James Montgomery (1771-1854) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #890 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come Lyrics: 1 Servant of God, well done!
Rest from thy loved employ;
The battle fought, the victory won,
Enter thy Master’s joy.
2 The heavenly summons came,
He started up to hear;
A mortal arrow pierced his frame,
He fell, but felt no fear.
3 His spirit, with a bound,
Left its encumbering clay;
His tent, at sunrise, on the ground
A darkened ruin lay.
4 The pains of death are past,
Labour and sorrow cease;
And, life’s long warfare closed at last,
His soul is found in peace.
5 Soldier of Christ, well done!
Praise be thy new employ;
And while eternal ages run,
Rest in thy Saviour’s joy.

Servant of God, well done
While the light from Heaven is falling
Author: Lucy Milward Booth-Hellberg (1868-1953) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #893 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come First Line: Sins of years are all numbered Lyrics: 1 Sins of years are all numbered,
Blackest stains brought to light,
Broken pledges uncovered,
None escape from his sight.
Unwashed hearts are rejected,
Guilty souls rise alone,
When you stand in the light
Of his great judgment throne.
Refrain:
While the light from Heaven is falling,
Sins reproving, wants revealing,
While redeeming grace is flowing,
He can wash your sins away.
2 All the past with its chances,
All the ‘what might have been’,
Each encounter with evil
He had meant you should win;
How you’ll wish you’d gone forward,
Loving Jesus alone,
When you stand in the light
Of his great judgment throne!
3 Ransomed sinners of all kinds,
Trembling followers as well,
With their robes surely blood-washed,
They shall come forth to tell
Of the battles fought bravely,
Of the victories won,
As they stand in the light
Of his great judgment throne.

While the light from Heaven is falling
The homeland! the homeland
Author: Hugh Reginald Haweis (1838-1901) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #895 (1986) Topics: The Life to Come Lyrics: 1 The homeland! the homeland!
The land of the free-born;
There’s no night in the homeland,
But aye the fadeless morn;
I’m sighing for the homeland,
My heart is aching here;
There’s no pain in the homeland
To which I’m drawing near.
2 My Lord is in the homeland
With angels bright and fair;
There’s no sin in the homeland,
And no temptation there;
The voices of the homeland
Are ringing in my ears,
And when I think of the homeland
My eyes are filled with tears.
3 For those I love in the homeland
Are calling me away
To the rest and peace of the homeland,
And the life beyond decay;
For there’s no death in the homeland,
There is no grief above;
Christ brings us all to the homeland
Of his eternal love.

The homeland! the homeland
