Great God, what do I see and hear!

Author: W. B. Collyer; J. Cotterill Appears in 299 hymnals Topics: The Christian Year Advent 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, to Thee my spirit clings, Thy boundless love declaring; One wondrous sight my comfort brings, The Judge my nature wearing. Beneath His Cross I view the day When heaven and earth shall pass away, And thus prepare to meet Him. Used With Tune: LUTHER'S HYMN

Rejoice, rejoice, believers!

Author: S. Findlater; L. Laurenti Appears in 332 hymnals Topics: The Christian Year Advent Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, believers! And let your lights appear; The evening is advancing, And darker night is near. The Bridegroom is arising, And soon He will draw nigh; Up! pray, and watch, and wrestle! At mid-night comes the cry. 2 See that your lamps are burning; Replenish them with oil; Look now for your salvation, The end of sin and toil. The watchers on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near, Go meet Him as He cometh, With alleluias clear. 3 O wise and holy virgins, Now raise your voices higher, Until in songs of triumph Ye meet the angel choir. The marriage-feast is waiting, The gates wide open stand; Up, up, ye heirs of glory! The Bridegroom is at hand. 4 Our hope and expectation, O Jesus, now appear; Arise, Thou Sun so longed for, O'er this benighted sphere! With hearts and hands uplifted, We plead, O Lord, to see The day of earth's redemption, And ever be with Thee! Used With Tune: GREENLAND
