'What means this glory round our feet'
Do Flesh And Nature Dread To Die?
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Do flesh and nature dread to die?
And timorous thoughts our minds enslave?
But grace can raise our hopes on high,
And quell the terrors of the grave.
2 Do we not dwell in clouds below,
And little know the God we love?
Why should we like this twilight so,
When ’tis all noon in worlds above?
3 When we put off this fleshly load,
We’re from a thousand mischiefs free,
For ever present with our God,
Where we have longed and wished to be.
4 No more shall pride or passion rise,
Or envy fret, or malice roar,
Or sorrow mourn, with downcast eyes,
And sin defile our eyes no more.
5 ’Tis best, ’tis infinitely best,
To go where tempters cannot come,
Where saints and angels, ever blest,
Dwell and enjoy their heavenly home.
6 O for a visit from my God,
To drive my fears of death away,
And help me through this darksome road,
To realms of everlasting day! Used With Tune: ALSTONE Text Sources: Sermons, 1721-27
Do Flesh And Nature Dread To Die?
By Various Maxims, Forms And rules
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 36 hymnals Lyrics: 1 By various maxims, forms and rules,
That pass for wisdom in the schools,
I strove my passion to restrain;
But all my efforts proved in vain.
2 But since the Savior I have known
My rules are all reduced to one:
To keep my Lord, by faith, in view;
This strength supplies, and motives too.
3 I see Him lead a suffering life,
So patient midst reproach and strife;
And from His pattern courage take
To bear, and suffer, for His sake.
4 Upon the cross I see Him bleed,
And by the fight from guilt am freed;
This sight destroys the life of sin,
And quickens heav’nly life within.
5 To look to Jesus as He rose
Confirms my faith, disarms my foes;
I Satan shame and overcome,
By pointing to my Savior’s tomb.
6 Exalted on His glorious throne,
I see Him make my cause His own;
Then all my anxious cares subside,
For Jesus lives, and will provide.
7 I see Him look with pity down,
And hold in view the conqueror’s crown;
If pressed with griefs and cares before,
My soul revives, and asks no more.
8 By faith I see the hour at hand
When in His presence I shall stand;
Then it will be my endless bliss,
To see Him where, and as He is. Used With Tune: ALSTONE Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London, W. Oliver, 1779), Book 1

The Starry Firmament on High
Author: Robert Grant, 1770-1838 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 79 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The starry firmament on high,
And all the glories of the sky,
Yet shine not to Thy praise, O Lord,
So brightly as Thy written Word.
2. The hopes that holy Word supplies,
Its truths divine and precepts wise,
In each a heavenly beam I see,
And every beam conducts to Thee.
3. Almighty Lord, the sun shall fail,
The moon forget her nightly tale,
And deepest silence hush on high,
The radiant chorus of the sky.
4. But, fixed, for everlasting years,
Unmoved amid the wreck of spheres,
Thy Word shall shine in cloudless day,
When Heaven and earth have passed away. Used With Tune: ALSTONE
The Starry Firmament on High
With loving hearts, O Lord, we bring
Author: Dr. A. D. Watson, 1859- Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 With loving hearts, O Lord, we bring
The fragrant incense of the flowers,
And on the altar of our King
We consecrate our noblest powers.
2 The lily's pure and simple dress,
The daisy's innocence so fair,
Are emblems of Thy holiness,
The sweet reminders of Thy care.
3 The birds Thy matchless glory sing,
The fields are white with waving corn,
The breezes heavenly incense bring
From all the fertile valleys borne.
4 The earth is breathing back to thee
The odours of the perfect flowers;
May all our lives as fruitful be
Amid the sunshine and the showers.
5 Thy gracious power on us bestow
To do Thy will and love Thy word,
Till we in fuller measure show
The joy and beauty of the Lord. Topics: Seasons and Occasions Used With Tune: ALSTONE
