Who are these arrayed in white
Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 155 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Time, Death, Eternity Lyrics: 1 Who are these arrayed in white,
Brighter than the noon-day sun?
Foremost of the sons of light,
Nearest the eternal throne?
These are they that bore the cross,
Nobly for their Master stood;
Sufferers in His righteous cause,
Followers of the Lamb of God.
2 Out of great distress they came,
Washed their robes by faith below
In the blood of yonder Lamb,
Blood that washes white as snow;
Therefore are they next the throne,
Serve their Maker day and night;
God resides among His own,
God doth in His saints delight.
3 More than conquerors at last,
Here they find their trials o'er;
They have all their sufferings past,
Hunger now and thirst no more;
God shall all their sorrows chase,
All their wants at once remove,
Wipe the tears from every face,
Fill up every soul with love. Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE'S, WINDSOR
Who are these arrayed in white
The Lord Our Dwelling-Place
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Afflictions For sin; Afflictions From God; Anger of God Deprecated; Anger of God Fearful; Anger of God Righteous; Bereavement; Death At Hand; Death Deprecated; God Attributes of; God Eternity of ; God Hearer of Prayer; God Immutability of; God Infinity of; Life Brevity and Uncertainty of; Life Sorrowful and Vain; Man Mortal and Frail; Old Age; Sickness From God First Line: Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling-place Lyrics: 1 Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling place
Through all the ages of our race;
Before the mountains had their birth,
Or ever Thou hadst formed the earth,
From everlasting Thou art God,
To everlasting our abode.
2 At Thy command man fades and dies
And new-born generations rise;
A thousand years are passed away,
And all to Thee are but a day;
Yea, like the watches of the night,
With Thee the ages wing their flight.
3 Man soon yields up his fleeting breath
Before this swelling tide of death;
Like transient sleep his seasons pass,
His life is like the tender grass,
Luxuriant 'neath the morning sun,
And withered ere the day is done.
4 Man in Thy anger is consumed,
and unto grief and sorrow doomed;
Before Thy clear and searching sight
Our secret sins are brought to light;
Beneath Thy wrath we pine and die,
Our life expiring like a sigh.
5 For threescore years and ten we wait,
Or fourscore years if strength be great;
But grief and toil attend life's day,
And soon our spirits fly away;
O who with true and rev'rent though
Can fear Thy anger as he ought?
Scripture: Psalm 90 Used With Tune: ST. CATHERINE

Before my face shall stand;
Secure, unmoved, I shall remain,
With Him at my right hand.
3 My inmost being thrills with joy
And gladness fills my breast;
Because on Him my trust is stayed,
My flesh in hope shall rest.
4 I know that I shall not be left
Forgotten in the grave,
And from corruption, Thou, O Lord,
Thy Holy One wilt save.
5 The path of life Thou showest me;
Of joy a boundless store
Is ever found at Thy right hand,
and pleasures evermore. Scripture: Psalm 16 Used With Tune: MAITLAND
