When we pass through yonder river

Author: Kelly Appears in 40 hymnals Topics: Termination of the Christian Warfare Lyrics: 1 When we pass through yonder river, When we reach the farther shore, There's an end of war for ever; We shall see our foes no more: All our conflicts then shall cease, Followed by eternal peace. 2 After warfare, rest is pleasant: Oh, how sweet the prospect is! Though we toil and strive at present, Let us not repine at this: Toil and pain and conflict past, All endear repose at last. 3 When we gain the heavenly regions, When we touch the heavenly shore,-- Blessed thought!--no hostile legions Can alarm or trouble more: Far beyond the reach of foes, We shall dwell in sweet repose. 4 Oh, that hope! how bright, how glorious! 'Tis his people's blessed reward; In the Saviour's strength victorious, They at length behold their Lord: In his kingdom they shall rest, In his love be fully blest.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Frederick H. Hedge Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 681 hymnals Topics: Christian warfare Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing; our helper he, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe; his craft and power are great, and armed with cruel hate, on earth is not his equal. 2 Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing; were not the right man on our side, the man of God's own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he, Lord Sabaoth his name, from age to age the same, and he must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, we will not fear, for God hath willed his truth to triumph through us. The prince of darkness grim, we tremble not for him; his rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure; one little word shall fell him. 4 That Word above all earthly pow'rs, no thanks to them, abideth; the Spirit and the gifts are ours through him who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also; the body they may kill: God's truth abideth still; his kingdom is forever. Scripture: Psalm 46 Used With Tune: EIN' FESTE BURG
