A few More Years shall Roll

Author: Horatius Bonar Appears in 385 hymnals Topics: Church Festivals New Year Lyrics: 1 A few more years shall roll, A few more seasons come, And we shall be with those that rest, Asleep within the tomb. A few more suns shall set O'er these dark hills of time, And we shall be where suns are not, A far serener clime. 2 A few more storms shall beat On this wild, rocky shore, And we shall be where tempests cease, And surges swell no more. A few more struggles here, A few more partings o'er, A few more toils, a few more tears, And we shall weep no more. 3 'Tis but a little while, And He shall come again, Who died that we might live, who lives That we with Him may reign; Then, O my Lord, prepare My soul for that glad day; O wash me in Thy precious blood, And take my sins away!

Author: Henry Alford, 1810 - 71 Appears in 440 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Saints' Days - Minor Festivals Lyrics: 1 Ten thousand times ten thousand In sparkling raiment bright, The armies of the ransomed saints Throng up the steeps of light; 'Tis finished, all is finished, Their fight with death and sin; Fling open wide the golden gates, And let the victors in! 2 What rush of alleluias Fills all the earth and sky; What ringing of a thousand harps Bespeaks the triumph high; O day, for which creation And all its tribes were made; O joy, for all its former woes A thousand-fold repaid! A-men. 3 O then what raptured greetings On Canaan's happy shore, What knitting severed friendships up, Where partings are no more! Then eyes with joy shall sparkle That brimmed with tears of late; Orphans no longer fatherless, Nor widows desolate. 4 Bring near thy great salvation, Thou Lamb for sinners slain; Fill up the roll of thine elect, Then take thy power and reign; Appear, Desire of Nations, Thine exiles long for home; Show in the heavens thy promised sign, Thou Prince and Saviour, come! Amen. Used With Tune: ALFORD

Can we know that thou art near us, and wilt hear us? Yea, we can. 3 Yea, we know that thou rejoicest o'er each work of thine; thou didst ears and hands and voices for thy praise design; craftsman's art and music's measure for thy pleasure all combine. 4 In thy house, great God, we offer of thine own to thee; and for thine acceptance proffer all unworthily hearts and minds and hands and voices in our choicest psalmody. 5 Honour, glory, might, and merit thine shall ever be, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, blessèd Trinity.

A-men. 3 Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vain world a friend to grace To help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight, if I would reign-- Increase my courage, Lord-- I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by thy word. 5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war, Shall conquer, though they die; They see the triumph from afar, By faith they bring it nigh. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, And all thy armies shine In robes of victory through the skies, The glory shall be thine. Amen. Used With Tune: ARLINGTON
