Great God, what do I see and hear!
Author: Thomas Cotterill; Anon.; William B. Collyer Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 298 hymnals Topics: Christ, The Lord Jesus Lyrics: 1 Great God, what do I see and hear!
The end of things created!
The Judge of mankind doth appear
On clouds of glory seated!
The trumpet sounds; the graves restore
The dead which they contained before:
Prepare, my soul, to meet him.
2 The dead in Christ shall first arise,
At the last trumpet's sounding,
Caught up to meet him in the skies,
With joy their Lord surrounding;
No gloomy fears their souls dismay;
His presence sheds eternal day
On those prepared to meet him.
3 But sinners, filled with guilty fears,
Behold his wrath prevailing;
For they shall rise, and find their tears
And sighs are unavailing:
The day of grace is past and gone;
Trembling they stand before the throne,
All unprepared to meet him.
4 Great God, what do I see and hear!
The end of things created!
The Judge of mankind doth appear
On clouds of glory seated!
Beneath his cross I view the day
When heav'n and earth shall pass away,
And thus prepare to meet him.
Amen. Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 Used With Tune: LUTHER'S HYMN

and me to walk doth make
within the paths of righteousness,
e’en for his own name’s sake.
3 Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale,
yet will I fear no ill,
for thou art with me, and thy rod
and staff me comfort still.
4 My table thou hast furnished
in presence of my foes;
my head thou dost with oil anoint,
and my cup overflows.
5 Goodness and mercy all my life
shall surely follow me,
and in God’s house forevermore
my dwelling place shall be. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: CRIMOND Text Sources: Scripture text

from tender stem hath sprung!
Of Jesse's lineage coming
as seers of old have sung.
It came a flower bright,
amid the cold of winter,
when half-spent was the night.
2 Isaiah 'twas foretold it,
the Rose I have in mind;
with Mary we behold it,
the virgin mother kind.
To show God's love aright
of her was born a Savior,
when half-spent was the night.
3 This flow'r, whose fragrance tender
with sweetness fills the air,
dispel in glorious splendor
the darkness everywhere.
True man, yet very God,
from sin and death he saves us
and lightens every load. Scripture: Isaiah 11:1-2 Used With Tune: ES IST EIN ROS Text Sources: German carol

The counsel of His grace in me
He surely shall fulfill.

I steadfastly believe
Thou wilt return and claim me, Lord,
And to Thyself receive.

O Quickly Come, Dread Judge of All
Author: Lawrence Tuttiett Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 84 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ His Second Coming and Judgment Lyrics: 1 O quickly come, dread Judge of all;
for, awful though thine advent be,
all shadows from the truth will fall,
and falsehood die, in sight of thee:

like clouds dissolve when thou art near.
2 O quickly come, great King of all;
reign all around us and within;
let sin no more our souls enthrall,
let pain and sorrow die with sin:
O quickly come, for thou alone
canst make thy scattered people one.
3 O quickly come, true Life of all,
for death is mighty all around;
on ev'ry home his shadows fall,
on ev'ry heart his mark is found:
O quickly come, for grief and pain
can never cloud thy glorious reign.
4 O quickly come, sure Light of all,
for gloomy night broods o'er our way;
and weakly souls begin to fall
with weary watching for the day:
O quickly come, for round thy throne
no eye is blind, no night is known.

by some clear, winning word of love;

in closer, dearer company,
in work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
in trust that triumphs over wrong.
4 In hope that sends a shining ray
far down the future's broadening way,
in peace that only thou canst give,
with thee, O Master, let me live. Used With Tune: MARYTON

To do in spirit lowly
All that may please You best.

Love brought You down to me;
Your thirst for my salvation
Procured my liberty.

In love all love excelling
Our lost and fallen race.

A treasure safe on high,
That will not fail no leave me
As earthly riches fly.
My heart shall bloom forever
For You with praises new,
And from Your name shall never
Withhold the honor due.
