"Your Kingdom Come" -- On Bended Knee
Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer (1840-1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 102 hymnals Scripture: Malachi 3:1-4 Lyrics: 1 "Your kingdom come" -- on bended knee
the passing ages pray;
and faithful souls have yearned to see
on earth that kingdom's day.
2 But the slow watches of the night
not less to God belong,
and for the everlasting right
the silent stars are strong.
3 And lo, already on the hills
the flags of dawn appear.
Gird up your loins, ye prophet souls,
proclaim the day is near:
4 the day in whose clear-shining light
all wrong shall stand revealed,
when justice shall be throned with might,
and every heart be healed:
5 when knowledge, hand in hand with peace,
shall walk the earth abroad --
the day of perfect righteousness,
the promised day of God. Topics: Advent; Justice; Kingdom Used With Tune: IRISH

Praise the Savior, Ye Who Know Him
Author: Thomas Kelly; Bryan Jeffery Leech Meter: 8.8.8.5 Appears in 70 hymnals Scripture: Malachi 3:16 Lyrics: 1 Praise the Savior, ye who know him!
Who can tell how much we owe him?
Gladly let us render to him
all we are and have.
2 Jesus is the name that charms us;
he for conflict fits and arms us;
nothing moves and nothing harms us
while we trust in him.
3 Trust in him, ye saints, forever;
he is faithful, changing never;
neither force nor guile can sever
those he loves from him.
4 Keep us, Lord, on thee relying
whether living, whether dying:
let no bitterness or sighing
mar our trust and praise.

The Judgment
Author: Mrs. C. F. Alexander Appears in 42 hymnals Scripture: Malachi 3:2 First Line: He is coming, he is coming Lyrics: 1 He is coming, he is coming,
Not as once he came before,
Wailing infant, born in weakness
On a lowly stable floor:
But upon his cloud of glory,
In the crimson-tinted sky,
Where we see the golden sunrise
In the rosy distance lie.
2 He is coming, he is coming,
Not in pain, and shame, and woe,
With the thorn-crown on his forehead.
And the blood-drops trickling slow;
But with diadem upon him,
And the sceptre in his hand,
And the dead all ranged before him,
Raised from death, hell, sea, and land.
3 He is coming, he is coming,
Not as once he wandered through
All the hostile land of Judah,
With his followers poor and few:
But with all the holy angels
Waiting round his judgment-seat,
And the chosen twelve apostles
Sitting crowned at his feet.
4 He is coming, he is coming;
Let his lowly first estate,
And his tender love, so teach us
That in faith and hope we wait,
Till in glory eastward burning,
Our redemption draweth near;
And we see the sign in heaven
Of our Judge and Saviour dear.

My soul, there is a country
Author: Henry Vaughan, 1622-1695 Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 39 hymnals Scripture: Malachi 3:6 Lyrics: 1 My soul, there is a country
far beyond the stars,
where stands a wingèd sentry
all skilful in the wars.
2 There, above noise and danger,
sweet peace sits crowned with smiles,
and One born in a manger
commands the beauteous files.
3 He is thy gracious Friend,
and — O my soul, awake! —
did in pure love descend,
to die here for thy sake.
4 If thou canst get but thither,
there grows the flower of peace,
the rose that cannot wither,
thy fortress and thy ease.
5 Leave then thy foolish ranges,
for none can thee secure
but one who never changes,
thy God, thy life, thy cure. Topics: Creation Used With Tune: CHRISTUS DER IST MEIN LEBEN

Adore and praise and magnify,
Whose might they claim, whose love they tell,
In Mary's body comes to dwell.
2 O Mother blest! the chosen shrine
Wherein the architect divine,
Whose hand contains the earth and sky,
Has come in human form to lie:
3 Blest in the message Gabriel brought;
Blest in the work the Spirit wrought;
Most blest, to bring to human birth
The long desired of all the earth.
4 O Lord the Virgin-born, to you
Eternal praise and lays are due,
Whom with the Father we adore
And Spirit blest for evermore. Topics: Mary Mother of God; Advent; Christmas Season; Mary, Mother of God; The Annunciation of the Lord (March 25); Incarnation Used With Tune: EISENACH

Soldiers, Who Are Christ's Below
Author: J. H. Clark Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 36 hymnals Scripture: Malachi 3:6 Lyrics: 1 Soldiers, who are Christ’s below,
Strong in faith resist the foe;
Boundless is the pledged reward
Unto them who serve the Lord.
2 ’Tis no palm of fading leaves
That the conqu'ror’s hand receives;
Joys are his, serene and pure,
Light that ever shall endure.
3 Passing soon and little worth
Are the things that tempt on earth;
Heav'nward lift your soul’s regard;
God Himself is your reward.
4 Father, who the crown dost give,
Savior, by whose death we live,
Spirit, who our hearts dost raise,
Three in One, Thy name we praise.
Amen.
