Hark! the sound of holy voices

Appears in 238 hymnals Topics: Festivals Lyrics: 1 Hark! the sound of holy voices, Chanting o'er the crystal sea, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Lord, to Thee; Multitude, which none can number, Like the stars in glory stands, Clothes in white apparel, holding Palms of victory in their hands. 2 Patriarch, and Holy Prophet, Who prepared the way of Christ, King, Apostle, Saint, Confessor, Martyr and Evangelist, Saintly Maiden, Godly Matron, Widows who have watched to prayer, Joined in holy concert, singing To the Lord of all, are there. 3 They have come from tribulation, And have wash'd their robes in blood, Wash'd them in the blood of Jesus; Tried they were, and firm they stood; Mock'd, imprison'd, stoned, tormented, Sawn assunder, slain with sword, They have conquer'd death and Satan By the might of Christ the Lord. 4 Marching with Thy Cross their banner, They have triumph'd, following Thee, the Captain of salvation, Thee, their Saviour and their King; Gladly, Lord, with Thee they suffer'd: Gladly, Lord, with Thee they died; And by death to life immortal They were born and glorified. 5 Now they reign in heavenly glory, Now they walk in golden light, Now they drink, as from a river, Holy bliss and infinite: Love and peace they taste for ever, And all truth and knowledge see In the beatific vision Of the Blessed Trinity. Amen. Used With Tune: MOULTRIE

We are the flock he comes to feed, the sheep who by his hand were made. 3 O enter then his gates with joy, with in his courts his praise proclaim. Let thankful songs your tongues employ, O bless and magnify his name. 4 Because the LORD our God is good, his mercy is forever sure.

Give me the wings of faith to rise

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 525 hymnals Topics: The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holidays: General Lyrics: 1 Give me the wings of faith to rise Within the veil, and see The saints above, how great their joys, How bright their glories be. 2 Once they were mourning here below, And wet their couch with tears; They wrestled hard, as we do now, With sins and doubts and fears. 3 I ask them whence their victory came; They, with united breath, Ascribe their conquest to the Lamb, Their triumph to his death. 4 They marked the footsteps that he trod, His zeal inspired their breast, And, following their incarnate God, Possess the promised rest. 5 Our glorious Leader claims our praise For his own pattern given; While the long cloud of witnesses Show the same path to heaven.
