Longing for a place at the right hand of the Judge

Appears in 441 hymnals Topics: The Day of Judgment First Line: When thou my righteous judge shall come Lyrics: 1 When thou my righteous judge shall come To fetch thy ransom'd people home, Shall I among them stand? Shall such a worthless worm as I, Who sometimes am afraid to die, Be found at thy right hand? 2 I love to meet among them now, Before thy gracious feet to bow, Tho' vilest of them all; But can I bear the piercing thought? What if my name should be left out, When thou for them shalt call? 3 Prevent, prevent it by thy grace; Be thou, dear Lord, my hiding place, In this th' accepted day: Thy pardoning voice, O let me hear, To still my unbelieving fear; Nor let me fall I pray. 4 Let me among thy saints be found, Whene'er th' archangel's trump shall sound, To see thy smiling face; Then loudest of the crowd I'll sing, While heaven's resounding mansions ring With shouts of sovereign grace.

Sinners and Saints in the Wreck of Nature

Author: President Davies Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 65 hymnals Topics: The Day of Judgment First Line: How great, how terrible that God Lyrics: 1 How great, how terrible that God, Who shakes creation with his nod! He frowns—earth, sea, all nature's frame Sink in one universal flame. 2 Where now, O where shall sinners seek For shelter in the general wreck; Shall falling rocks be o'er them thrown? See rocks, like snow, desolving down. 3 In vain for mercy now they cry; In lakes of liquid fire they lie; There on the flaming billows tost, For ever—O forever lost. 4 But saints, undaunted and serene Your eyes view the dreadful scene; Your savior lives, the worlds expire, And earth and skies desolve in fire. 5 Jesus, the helpless creature's friend, To thee my all I dare commend. Thou canst preserve my feeble soul, When Lightnings blaze from pole to pole.

Lo, he cometh

Appears in 157 hymnals Topics: The Day of Judgment First Line: Lo! he cometh! countless trumpets Lyrics: 1 Lo! he cometh! countless trumpets, Blow to rise the sleeping dead; Midst ten thousand saints and angels, See their great exalted head: Hallelujah, Welcome, welcome son of God. 2 Now his merit, by the harpers, Thro' th' eternal deep resounds: Now resplendent shine his nail-prints, Every eye shall see his wounds: They who pierc'd him Shall at his appearance wail. 3 Full of joyful expectation, Saints behold the judge appear: Truth and justice go before him, Now the joyful sentence hear: Hallelujah, Welcome, welcome, judge divine. 4 "Come, ye blessed of my father, "Enter into life and joy; "Banish all your fears and sorrows, Endless praise be your employ:" Hallelujah, Welcome, welcome to the skies. 5 Now at once they rise to glory, Jesus brings them to the king; There, with all the hosts of heaven, They eternal anthems sing: Hallelujah, Boundless glory to the lamb.

Come, Lord Jesus

Author: Dr. Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: The Day of Judgment First Line: When shall thy lovely face be seen? Lyrics: 1 When shall thy lovely face be seen? When shall our eyes behold our God? What lengths of distance lie between, And hills of guilt? a heavy load! 2 Our months are ages of delay, And slowly every moment wears: Fly, wingèd time, and roll away These tedious rounds of sluggish years. 3 Ye heavenly gates, loose all your chains, Let the eternal pillars bow; Blest Savior, cleave the starry plains, And make the crystal mountains flow. 4 Hark, how thy saints unite their cries, And pray and wait the general doom: Come, Thou, the Soul of all of our Joys, Thou, the Desire of Nations, come. 5 Put thy bright robes of triumph on, And bless our eyes, and bless our ears, Thou absent Love, thou dear Unknown, Thou Fairest of ten thousand Fairs.

The Final Sentence and Misery of the Wicked

Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 307 hymnals Topics: The Day of Judgment First Line: And will the judge descend? Lyrics: 1 And will the judge descend? And must the dead arise? And not a single soul escape His all-discerning eyes? 2 And from his righteous lips Shall this dread sentence sound; And thro' the numerous guilty throng, Spread black despair around? 3 "Depart from me, accurs'd, "To everlasting flame, "For rebel angels first prepar'd, "Where mercy never came." 4 How will my heart endure The terrors of that day: When earth and heaven, before his face, Astonish'd shrink away? 5 But ere that trumpet shakes The mansions of the dead; Hark, from the gospel's cheering sound, What joyful tidings spread! 6 Ye sinners, seek his grace, Whose wrath ye cannot bear; Fly to the shelter of his cross, And find salvation there. 7 So shall that curse remove; By which the savior bled; And the last awful day shall pour his blessings on your head.

The Last Judgment

Author: Dr. S. Stennett Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 39 hymnals Topics: The Day of Judgment First Line: He comes! he comes! to judge the world Lyrics: 1 He comes! he comes! to judge the world, Aloud th' archangel cries: While thunders roll from pole to pole, And lightnings cleave the skies. 2 Th' affrighted nations hear the sound, And upward lift their eyes: The slumb'ring tenants of the ground In living armies rise. 3 Amid the shouts of numerous friends, Of hosts divinely bright, The judge in solemn pomp descends, Array'd in robes of light. 4 His head and hairs are white as snow, His eyes a fiery flame, A radiant crown adorns his brow, And Jesus is his name. 5 Writ on his thigh his name appears, And scars his victo'ies tell: Lo! in his hand the conqu'ror bears The keys of death and hell. 6 So he ascends the judgment-seat, And at his dread command, Myriads of creatures round his feet In solemn silence stand. 7 Princes and peasants here expect Their, last, their righteous doom; The men who dar'd his grace reject, And they who dar'd presume. 8 "Depart, ye sons of death and sin," The injur'd Jesus cries, While the long-kindling wrath within Flames from both his eyes. 9 And now in words divinely sweet, With rapture in his face, Aloud his sacred lips repeat The sentence of his grace: 10 "Well done, my good and faithful sons. "The children of my love; "Receive the sceptres, crowns and thrones "Prepar'd for you above."
