Quiet communion

Author: Ray Palmer Appears in 78 hymnals Topics: Christ Sun First Line: Stealing from the world away Lyrics: 1 Stealing from the world away, We are come to seek thy face; Kindly meet us, Lord, we pray, Grant us thy reviving grace. 2 Yonder stars that gild the sky Shine but with a borrowed light; We, unless thy light be nigh, Wander, wrapt in gloomy night. 3 Sun of Righteousness! dispel All our darkness, doubts, and fears; May thy light within us dwell, Till eternal day appears. 4 Warm our hearts in prayer and praise, Lift our every thought above; Hear the grateful songs we raise, Fill us with thy perfect love.

I know not, O I know not what joys await us there, what radiancy of glory, what bliss beyond compare. 2 They stand, those halls of Sion, conjubilant with song, and bright with many an angel, and all the martyr throng; the Prince is ever with them, the daylight is serene, the pastures of the blessèd are decked in glorious sheen. 3 There is the throne of David; and there, from care released, the shout of them that triumph, the song of them that feast; and they, who with their leader have conquered in the fight, for ever and for ever are clad in robes of white. 4 O sweet and blessèd country, the home of God's elect! O sweet and blessèd country that eager hearts expect! Jesu, in mercy bring us to that dear land of rest; who art, with God the Father and Spirit, ever blest. Scripture: Revelation 21:1-18 Used With Tune: EWING

Bright the vision that delighted

Author: Richard Mant (1776-1848) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 49 hymnals Topics: All Saints' (Sun)day Year A Lyrics: 1 Bright the vision that delighted once the sight of Judah's seer; sweet the countless tongues united to entrance the prophet's ear. 2 Round the Lord in glory seated cherubim and seraphim filled his temple, and repeated each to each the alternate hymn: 3 'Lord, thy glory fills the heaven; earth is with its fullness stored; unto thee be glory given, holy, holy, holy, Lord.' 4 Heaven is still with glory ringing, earth takes up the angels' cry, 'Holy, holy, holy,' singing, 'Lord of hosts, the Lord most high.' 5 With his seraph train before him, with his holy church below, thus unite we to adore him, bid we thus our anthem flow: 6 'Lord, thy glory fills the heaven; earth is with its fullness stored; unto thee be glory given, holy, holy, holy, Lord.' Scripture: Isaiah 6 Used With Tune: LAUS DEO (REDHEAD NO. 46)

The Love that Clothes Itself in Light

Author: Alan Gaunt Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Sun Lyrics: 1 The Love that clothes itself in light, stands naked now, despised, betrayed, receiving blows to face and head from hands that Love itself has made. 2 The Love that lifts the stars and sun, collapses, spent, beneath the cross; the Love that fills the universe, goes on to death and total loss. 3 Love, helpless, comes to Calvary, rejected, scorned and crucified; Love hangs in shame, and dies alone, but Love abased, is glorified. 4 Extinguished with the sun at noon, Love's light transcends all history; Love, wrapped in linen, Love entombed, still wraps all heaven in mystery. 5 Though Love is lost, Love finds us here; though Love is absent, Love remains; where Love is finished, Love begins; where Love is dead, Love lives and reigns!

The Heavenly King Must Come

Author: Henry Arthur Martin Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Names and Office of Christ Sun First Line: The heav'nly King must come Lyrics: 1 The heav'nly King must come His desert realm to see; Must leave His own eternal home And all His majesty. 2 And lo! before Him sent His herald who must cry And never spare, "Repent, repent! Your King, your God, is nigh!" 3 He, when his work is done, Must see his light decay, Must hail with joy the brighter Sun, The glorious King of day. 4 O Lord, O King, O Sun, Whose messenger he came, Baptize us all, most holy One, In Thy refining flame. 5 Give us Thy grace, that we All evil may forsake, May boldly speak the truth for Thee, The lowest place may take. 6 So, when Thou com'st again, Thy realm redeemed to see, Thy steps shall find 'mid hearts of men A way made straight for Thee. Amen. Used With Tune: FRANCONIA
