How Many Things Combine To Show
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How many things combine to show,
The joyful day is near at hand,
When truth shall spread and sinners know
The Savior’s name in every land.
2 When did the friends of truth unite,
With so much zeal as now they do;
To spread abroad its glorious light,
And bring its excellence to view?
3 Mark how in this auspicious time,
The promised day by prophets sung,
The people hear, of every clime,
The Gospel in their native tongue.
4 It runs, it flies through every land;
We mark its progress with delight,
And bless His name, at whose command,
A day has ris’n, so fair, so bright.
5 Nor should His people give Him rest,
Or cease their earnest cry to raise,
Until Jerusalem be blest,
And through the earth become "a praise." Used With Tune: ARIZONA Text Sources: Hymns Not Before Published (Dublin: Thomas Johnston, 1815)

God, Who in Various Methods Told
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Lyrics: 1. God, who in various methods told
His mind and will to saints of old,
Sent down His Son, with truth and grace,
To teach us in these latter days.
2. Our nation reads the written Word,
That book of life, that sure record:
The bright inheritance of Heav’n
Is by the sweet conveyance giv’n.
3. God’s kindest thoughts are here expressed,
Able to make us wise and blessed;
The doctrines are divinely true,
Fit for reproof and comfort, too.
[The last stanza would, obviously, need updating for a present day use.]
4. Ye British isles, who read His love
In long epistles from above,
(He hath not sent His sacred Word
To every land,) praise ye the Lord. Used With Tune: ARIZONA Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, Book I, 1707, number 53

Tidings of joy salute your ears,
And Heav’n pours forth its sacred light
To dissipate the gloom of night.

Wrapped in the glorious theme, the plains
Resound in their melodious strain.

Appears the desert world to bless;
May every soul their tribute bring,
And worlds unborn His glory sing. Used With Tune: ARIZONA Text Sources: A Selection of Carols, Pieces and Anthems (London: W. Kent and Company, undated, circa 1860)
