On your far hills, long cold and gray, Has dawned the everlasting day. 4 Shores of the utmost West, Ye that have waited long, Unvisited, unblest, Break forth to swelling song; High raise the note, that Jesus died, Yet lives and reigns, the Crucified. 5 Shout, while ye journey home; Songs be in every mouth; Lo, from the North we come, From East, and West, and South. City of God, the bond are free, We come to live and reign in thee! Amen. Scripture: Psalm 2:8 Used With Tune: LITTLE CORNARD

Our souls, by love together knit

Author: Miller Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 235 hymnals Topics: The Christian Church Fellowship; Heaven begun on Earth Lyrics: 1 Our souls, by love together knit, Cemented, mixed in one, One hope, one heart, one mind, one voice, 'Tis heaven one earth begun. 2 Our hearts have often burned within, And glowed with sacred fire, While Jesus spoke, and fed, and blessed, And filled th' enlarged desire. 3 The little cloud increases still, The heavens are big with rain; We haste to catch the teeming shower, And all its moisture drain. 4 A rill, a stream, a torrent flows! But pour a mighty flood; Oh, sweep the nations, shake the earth, Till all proclaim thee God! 5 And when thou mak'st thy jewels up, And sett'st thy starry crown; When all thy sparkling gems shall shine, Proclaimed by thee thine own: 6 May we, a little band of love, We sinners, saved by grace, From glory unto glory changed, Behold thee face to face.
