Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence

Author: Gerard Moultrie, 1829-85 Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #361 (1993) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Let all mortal flesh keep silence And with fear and trembling stand; Ponder nothing earthly-minded, For with blessing in his hand Christ, our God, to earth descending, Comes our homage to command. 2 King of kings, yet born of Mary, As of old on earth he stood, Lord of lords in human likeness, In the body and the blood He will give to all the faithful His own self for heav'nly food. 3 Rank on rank the host of heaven Spread its vanguard on the way As the Light from Light, descending From the realms of endless day, Comes the pow'rs of hell to vanquish As the darkness clears away. 4 At his feet the six-winged seraph, Cherubim with sleepless eye, Veil their faces to the presence As with ceaseless voice they cry: "Alleluia, alleluia! Alleluia, Lord Most High!" Topics: Redeemer; Redeemer Languages: English Tune Title: PICARDY
