When the Lord in Glory Comes

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: RitualSong #868 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 D Topics: Gentleness Lyrics: 1 When the Lord in glory comes not the trumpets, not the drums, not the anthem, not the psalm, not the thunder, not the calm, not the shout the heavens raise, not the chorus, not the praise, not the silences sublime, not the sounds of space and time, but his voice when he appears shall be music to my ears- but his voice when he appears shall be music to my ears. 2 When the Lord is seen again not the glories of his reign, not the lightnings through the storm, not the radiance of his form, not his pomp and pow'r alone, not the splendors of his throne, not his robe and diadems, not the gold and not the gems, but his face upon my sight shall be darkness into light- but his face upon my sight shall be darkness into light. 3 When the Lord to human eyes shall bestride our narrow skies, not the child of humble birth, not the carpenter of earth, not the man by all denied, not the victim crucified, but the God who died to save, but the victor of the grave, he it is to whom I fall, Jesus Christ, my All in all- he it is to whom I fall, Jesus Christ, my All in all. Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 3:8 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. JOHN'S

Speak gently--it is better far

Author: Bates Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #706 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Speak Gently Lyrics: 1 Speak gently--it is better far To rule by love than fear; Speak gently--let no harsh word mar The good we may do here. 2 Speak gently to the young, for they Will have enough to bear; Pass through this life as best they may, 'Tis full of anxious care. 3 Speak gently to the aged one, Grieve not the careworn heart; The sands of life are nearly run-- Let them in peace depart. 4 Speak gently to the erring ones; They must have toiled in vain; Perchance unkindness made them so; Oh, win them back again! 5 Speak gently--'tis a little thing, Dropped in the heart's deep well; The good, the joy, that it may bring, Eternity shall tell.

God's gentle Chastisement; or, his tender Mercy to his People

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #180 (1786) Topics: Afflictions gentle; Afflictions gentle First Line: The Lord, how wondrous are his ways Lyrics: 1 The Lord, how wondrous are his ways! How firm his truth! how large his grace! He takes his mercy for his throne, And thence he makes his glories known. 2 Not half so high his power hath spread The starry heavens above our head, As his rich love exceeds our praise, Exceeds the highest hopes we raise. 3 Not half so far hath nature plac'd The rising morning from the west As his forgiving grace removes: The daily guilt of those he loves. 4 How slow his awful wrath to rise! On swifter wings salvation flies; And if he lets his anger burn, How soon his frowns to pity turn! 5 Amidst his wrath compassion shines; His strokes are lighter than our sins: And while his rod corrects his saints, His ear indulges their complaints. 6 So fathers their young sons chastise, With gentle hand and melting eyes: The children weep beneath the smart, And move the pity of their heart. Pause 7 The mighty God, the wise and just, Knows that our frame is feeble dust; And will no heavy loads impose Beyond the strength that he bestows. 8 He knows how soon our nature dies, Blasted by every wind that flies; Like grass we spring, and die as soon, Or morning flowers that fade at noon. 9 But his eternal love is sure To all the saints, and shall endure: From age to age his truth shall reign, Nor children's children hope in vain.
