Give me the wings of faith to rise

Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 525 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Time, Death, Eternity Lyrics: 1 Give me the wings of faith to rise Within the veil, and see The saints above, how great their joys, How bright their glories be. 2 Once they were mourners here below, And poured out cries and tears: They wrestled hard, as we do now, With sins, and doubts, and fears. 3 I ask them whence their victory came; They, with united breath, Ascribe their conquest to the Lamb, Their triumph to His death. 4 They marked the footsteps that He trod, His zeal inspired their breast; And, following their incarnate God, Possess the promised rest. 5 Our glorious Leader claims our praise For His own pattern given; While the long cloud of witnesses Show the same path to heaven.

Dear as thou wert, and justly dear

Author: Dale Appears in 59 hymnals Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 Dear as thou wert, and justly dear, We would not weep for thee; One thought shall check the starting tear: From sorrow thou art free. 2 And thus shall faith's consoling power The tears of love restrain: O, who that saw thy parting hour Could wish thee back again? 3 Angels shall guard thy sleeping dust, And, as thy Saviour rose, The grave again shall yield her trust, And end thy deep repose. 4 Thy Lord, before to glory gone, Shall bid thee come away; And calm and bright shall break the dawn Of heaven's eternal day.

Death and Eternity

Author: Dr. Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: Death; Death And eternity; Eternity Death and eternity First Line: My thoughts, that often mount the skies Lyrics: 1 My thoughts, that often mount the skies, Go, search the world beneath, Where nature all in ruin lies, And owns her sovereign, death. 2 The tyrant how he triumphs here*, His trophies spread around! And heaps of dust and bones appear Thro' all the hollow ground. 3 Those skulls, what ghastly figures now! How loathsome to the eyes! These are the heads we lately knew So beauteous and so wise. 4 But where the souls those deathless things, That left their dying clay? My thoughts, now stretch out all your wings, And trace eternity! 5 O that unfathomable sea! Those deeps without a shore! Where living waters gently play, Or fiery billows roar. 6 There we shall swim in heavenly bliss, Or sink in flaming waves, While the pale carcase breathless lies Among the silent graves. 7 "Prepare us, Lord, for thy right hand, "Then come the joyful day, "Come, death, and some celestial band, "To bear our souls away."

Scripture: Psalm 69:7-36
