We shall sleep, but not for ever

Appears in 65 hymnals Topics: Hope Longing for heaven First Line: We shall sleep but not forever Refrain First Line: We shall sleep, but not forever Lyrics: 1 We shall sleep but not for ever, There will be a glorious dawn; We shall meet to part--no never, On the resurrection morn! From the deepest caves of ocean, From the desert and the plain, From the valley and the mountain, Countless throngs shall rise again. Chorus: We shall sleep, but not for ever, There will be a glorious dawn; We shall meet to part--no, never, On the resurrection morn! 2 When we see a precious blossom That we tended with such care Rudely taken from our bosom, How our aching hearts despair! Round its little grave we linger, Till the setting sun is low, Feeling all our hopes have perished With the flower we cherished so. [Chorus] 3 We shall sleep, but not for ever, In the lone and silent grave; Blessed be the Lord that taketh, Blessed be the Lord that gave. In the bright eternal city Death can never, never come! In His own good time He'll call us From our rest to home, sweet home. [Chorus]

I will sing you a song of that beautiful land

Appears in 341 hymnals Topics: Hope Longing for heaven Lyrics: 1 I will sing you a song of that beautiful land, The far away home of the soul, Where no storms ever beat on the glittering strand, While the years of eternity roll. 2 Oh, that home of the soul in my visions and dreams, Its bright, jasper walls I can see; Till I fancy but thinly the veil intervenes Between the fair city and me. 3 That unchangeable home is for you and for me, Where Jesus of Nazareth stands, The King of all kingdoms for ever is He, And He holdeth our crowns in His hands. 4 Oh, how sweet it will be in that beautiful land, So free from all sorrow and pain; With songs on our lips and with harps in our hands, To meet one another again.

In Thee my soul is satisfied, My darkness turns to light, And joyful meditations fill The watches of the night. 3 My Saviour, 'neath Thy shelt'ring wings My soul delights to dwell; Still closer to Thy side I press, For near Thee all is well. My soul shall conquer ev'ry foe, Upholden by Thy hand; Thy people shall rejoice in God, Thy saints in glory stand. Scripture: Psalm 63 Used With Tune: THE GREEN HILL

Hvordan takker vi vor Herre

Author: Brorson Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Hope and Longing for the Heavenly Lyrics: 1 Hvordan takke vi vor Herre, For han gav sin Søn herned? Mange skjønne lidt, desværre, Paa saa stor en Kjærlighed; Deres onde Syndelyst Dække de med Naadens Trøst, Vil af Jesu intet lære, Og dog sande Kristne være. 2 Vistnok ingen Sjæl fordømmes, Naar man paa sin Jesum tror, Naadens Kilde aldrig tømmes, Naaden er og bliver stor; Men det er en afsagt Dom, Siden Jesus til os kom, Skal man sig fra Synden vende, Eller ogsaa evig brænde. 3 At du vil i dine Lyster Fare fort, som du er van, Og dig dog ved Jesum trøster, Gaar i Evighed ei an. Kjære Hjerte, Et af To: Enten udi Bøn og Tro Syndens Vei at fly og hade, Eller lide Sjæleskade. 4 Lyset er i Verden kommet; Veed du ogsaa om du tror? Har du nogen Tid fornummet, At din Jesus i dig bor? Har hans Naade-Straalers Kraft I din Sjæl sin Virkning havt? Kan du i dit Hjerte finde, At der er et Lys derinde? 5 Hvordan gaar man dog og drømmer Udi saadan vigtig Sag, Og i Sikkerhed forsømmer Naadens dyrbare Dag! Det er Tid at sanse vel, Og at sorge for din Sjæl; Det et Tid at forkomme Herrens store Vredes Domme. 6 Gud, som Lyset lod opklare Udi Naadens blide Aar, Vil og ingenlunde spare Den, som dette Lys forsmaar. Vil du vende Ryggen til, Gud dig fra sig støde vil; Den, som ei vil Lyset kjende, Han skal sig paa Lyset brænde. 7 Lad din Naades Glans oprinde, Søde Jesu, at jeg maa Derved altid Veien finde, Som jeg bør at vandre paa! Vær min Formand, at jeg ei Kommer paa den brede Vei, Eller fra dit Fodspor viger, Til jeg ind i Himlen stiger!

A lowly station in Thy house Were dearer to my heart Than in the tents of wickedness to claim the chiefest part. 3 A sun and shield is God, the Lord, To lighten and defend; The Lord to such as look to Him Will grace and glory send; To those that walk in righteousness No good will He deny; The Lord of Hosts, how blest are they Who on Thy grace rely.
