Children of the heavenly King
Author: John Cennick Appears in 1,184 hymnals Topics: Happiness Lyrics: 1 Children of the heavenly King,
As ye journey, sweetly sing;
Sing your Saviour's worthy praise,
Glorious in His works and ways.
2 Ye are travelling home to God,
In the way the fathers trod:
They are happy now, and ye
Soon their happiness shall see.
3 O ye banished seed be glad!
Christ our Advocate is made;
Us to save, our flesh assumes;
Brother to our souls becomes.
4 Shout, ye little flock, and blest;
You on Jesus' throne shall rest:--
There your seat is now prepared;
There your kingdom and reward.
5 Lord, submissive make us go,
Gladly leaving all below;
Only Thou our leader be,
And we still will follow Thee.
Amen. Used With Tune: BRASTED

Light's abode, celestial Salem
Author: Thomas à Kempis, c.1380-1471; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 91 hymnals Topics: Gladness / Happiness Lyrics: 1 Light's abode, celestial Salem,
vision whence true peace doth spring,
brighter than the heart can fancy,
mansion of the highest King;
oh how glorious are the praises
which of thee the prophets sing.
2 There forever and forever
hallelujah is outpoured,
for unending, for unbroken
is the feast day of the Lord;
all is pure and all is holy
that within thy walls is stored.
3 There no cloud nor passing vapour
dims the brightness of the air;
endless noonday, glorious noonday,
from the Sun of suns is there;
there no night brings rest from labour,
for unknown are toil and care.
4 Oh how glorious and resplendent,
fragile body, shalt thou be,
when endued with so much beauty,
full of health, and strong and free,
full of vigour, full of pleasure
that shall last eternally.
5 Now with gladness, now with courage,
bear the burden on thee laid,
that hereafter these thy labours
may with endless gifts be paid,
and in everlasting glory
thou with joy mayst stand arrayed.
Scripture: Psalm 92 Used With Tune: RHUDDLAN

The Difference between the Righteous and the Wicked
Appears in 51 hymnals Topics: Saints happy and Sinners cursed; Saints happy and Sinners cursed First Line: Happy the man, whose cautious feet Lyrics: 1 Happy the man, whose cautious feet
Shun the broad way where sinners go,
Who hates the place where Atheists meet,
And fears to talk as scoffers do.
2 He loves t' employ his morning light
Among the statutes of the Lord;
And spends the wakeful hours of night,
With pleasure pond'ring o'er the word.
3 He, like a plant by gentle streams,
Shall flourish in immortal green;
And Heaven will shine with kindest beams,
On every work his hands begin.
4 But sinners find their counsels cross'd;
As chaff before the tempest flies;
So shall their hopes be blown and lost,
When the last trumpet shakes the skies.
5 In vain the rebel seeks to stand
In judgment with the pious race;
The dreadful Judge with stern command
Divides him to a different place.
6 "Strait is the Way my saints have trod,
"I bless'd the path, and drew it plain;
"But you would chuse the crooked road;
"And down it leads to endless pain. Scripture: Psalm 1
The Difference between the Righteous and the Wicked
The Saint happy, the Sinner miserable
Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: Saints happy and Sinners cursed; Saints happy and Sinners cursed First Line: The man is ever blest Lyrics: 1 The man is ever blest,
Who shuns the sinners' ways,
Among their councils never stands,
Nor takes the scorner's place:
2 But makes the law of God
His study and delight,
Amidst the labours of the day,
And watches of the night.
3 He like a tree shall thrive,
With waters near the root;
Fresh as the leaf his name shall live,
His works are heavenly fruit.
4 Not so th' ungoldy race,
They no such blessings find:
Their hopes shall flee like empty chaff
Before the driving wind.
5 How will they bear to stand
Before that judgment seat,
Where all the saints at Christ's right hand
In full assembly meet?
6 He knows and he approves
The ways the righteous go:
But sinners and their works shall meet
A dreadful overthrow. Scripture: Psalm 1
The Saint happy, the Sinner miserable
All who hunger, gather gladly
Author: Sylvia G. Dunstan, 1955=1993 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 27 hymnals Topics: Gladness / Happiness Scripture: Psalm 34:8 Used With Tune: HOLY MANNA
All who hunger, gather gladly
Psalm 1
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 102 hymnals Topics: Happy saint and cursed sinner; Saints happy, and sinners cursed; Sinner cursed, and saint happy First Line: Blest is the man who shuns the place Lyrics:
Blest is the man who shuns the place
Where sinners love to meet;
Who fears to tread their wicked ways,
And hates the scoffer's seat:
But in the statutes of the Lord
Has placed his chief delight;
By day he reads or hears the word,
And meditates by night.
[He, like a plant of gen'rous kind,
By living waters set,
Safe from the storms and blasting wind,
Enjoys a peaceful state.]
Green as the leaf, and ever fair,
Shall his profession shine
While fruits of holiness appear
Like clusters on the vine.
Not so the impious and unjust;
What vain designs they form!
Their hopes are blown away like dust,
Or chaff before the storm.
Sinners in judgment shall not stand
Amongst the sons of grace,
When Christ, the Judge, at his right hand
Appoints his saints a place.
His eye beholds the path they tread,
His heart approves it well
But crooked ways of sinners lead
Down to the gates of hell.
Scripture: Psalm 1
Psalm 1
