Who Are These, Like Stars Appearing?

Author: Heinrich Theobald Schenk Hymnal: HOoS1926 #630 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 First Line: Who are these, like stars appearing Lyrics: 1 Who are these, like stars appearing, These before God's throne who stand? Each a golden crown is wearing; Who are all this glorious band? Alleluia! hark they sing, Praising loud their heav'nly King. 2 Who are these of dazzling brightness, These in God's own truth arrayed, Clad in robes of purest whiteness, Robes whose lustre ne'er shall fade, Ne'er be touched by time's rude hand? Whence comes all this glorious band? 3 These are they who have contended For their Saviour's honor long, Wrestling on till life was ended, Following not the sinful throng; These, who well the fight sustained, Triumph through the Lamb have gained. 4 These are they whose hearts were riven, Sore with woe and anguish tried, Who in prayer full oft have striven With the God they glorified: Now, their painful conflict o'er, God has bid them weep no more. 5 These, like priests, have watched and waited, Offering up to Christ their will. Soul and body consecrated, Day and night to serve Him still. Now in God's most holy place Blest they stand before His face. Amen.

Strait Is the Gate to All That Come

Author: Carolina Vilhelmina (Sandell) Berg, (1832-1903); Augustus Nelson Hymnal: HOoS1926 #631 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Strait is the gate to all that come, And narrow is the way Which leads unto the heav’nly home, Where yet is room for thee, Where yet is room for thee. 2 In heaven, where God His own shall take, There’s also room for thee. In Jesus’ Name, for Jesus’ sake, The gates shall opened be, The gates shall opened be. 3 Where thousands stand arrayed in white, Whom God His own declared, There yet is room and life and light, By grace for thee prepared, By grace for thee prepared. 4 In Jesus’ heart there’s room, I know, And in His heaven of bliss. He in His gospel tells me so, Thanks be to God for this! Thanks be to God for this! 5 Thanks be to God, that even I May in that city dwell, Where peace shall reign eternally, And all with me be well! And all with me be well! Amen. Topics: Last Things Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: ORTONVILLE

I Love to Hear the Story

I am both weak and sinful, But this I surely know, The Lord came down to save me, Because He loved me so. 2 I’m glad my blessèd Saviour Was once a child like me, To show how pure and holy His little ones might be; And if I try to follow His footsteps here below, He never will forsake me, Because He loves me so. 3 To tell His love and mercy My sweetest songs I’ll raise; And though I cannot see Him, I know He hears my praise; For He has kindly promised That even I may go To sing among His angels, Because He loves me so.

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil Frances (Humphreys) Alexander Hymnal: HOoS1926 #633 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city Stood a lowly cattle-shed Where a mother laid her Baby In a manger for His bed; Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little Child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven, Who is God and Lord of all, And His shelter was a stable, And His cradle was a stall; With the poorest of the earth Was our holy Saviour's birth. 3 Not in that poor lowly stable, With the oxen standing by, We shall see Him, but in heaven, Set at God's right hand on high; When like stars His children, crowned, All in white shall wait around.

Refrain: Hosanna, Hosanna, To David's royal Son, Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna. 2 And since the Lord retaineth His love for children still, Though now as King He reigneth On Zion's heavenly hill; We'll flock around His banner, Who sits upon the throne, And cry aloud, hosanna To David's royal Son.

No! while our hearts are tender, They, too, shall be the Lord's. [Refrain] Amen. Topics: Children's Hymns Scripture: Matthew 21:16 Languages: English Tune Title: PALM SUNDAY
