Autumn, or the harvest is the end of the world

Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CCCXIII (1799) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Day of Judgment First Line: See how brown autumn spreads the field Lyrics: 1 See how brown autumn spreads the field; Mark how the whit'ning hills are turn'd; Behold them to the reapers yield, The wheat is sav'd, the tares are burn'd. 2 Thus the great Judge with glory crown'd, Descends to reap the ripen'd earth; Angelic guards attend him down, The same who sang his humble birth. 3 In sounds of glory, hear him speak; "Go search around the flaming world, Haste, call my saints, to rise and take The seats from which their foes were hurl'd. 4 "Go burn the chaff in endless fire, In flames unquench'd consume each tare; Sinners must feel my holy ire, And sink in guilt to deep despair." 5 Thus ends the harvest of the earth, Angels obey the awful voice: They save the wheat and burn the chaff, All heav'n approves the sov'reign choice.

Come, Lord Jesus

Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #DLXXIV (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Day of Judgment First Line: When shall thy lovely face be seen? Lyrics: 1 When shall thy lovely face be seen? When shall our eyes behold our God? What lengths of distance lie between, And hills of guilt? a heavy load! 2 Our months are ages of delay, And slowly every moment wears: Fly, wingèd time, and roll away These tedious rounds of sluggish years. 3 Ye heavenly gates, loose all your chains, Let the eternal pillars bow; Blest Savior, cleave the starry plains, And make the crystal mountains flow. 4 Hark, how thy saints unite their cries, And pray and wait the general doom: Come, Thou, the Soul of all of our Joys, Thou, the Desire of Nations, come. 5 Put thy bright robes of triumph on, And bless our eyes, and bless our ears, Thou absent Love, thou dear Unknown, Thou Fairest of ten thousand Fairs.
