All Ye Gentile Lands Awake!

Author: Johann Rist; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #346 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 First Line: All ye Gentile lands awake Lyrics: 1. All ye Gentile lands awake! Thou, O Salem, rise and shine! See the day-spring o’er you break, Heralding a morn divine, Telling, God hath called to mind Those who long in darkness pined. 2. Lo! the shadows flee away, For our Light is come at length, Brighter than all earthly day, Source of being, life and strength! Whoso on this Light would gaze Must forsake all evil ways. 3. Ah how blindly did we stray Ere shone forth this glorious Sun, Seeking each his separate way, Leaving Heaven, unsought, unwon; All our looks were earthward bent, All our strength on earth was spent. 4. Earthly were our thoughts and low, In the toils of folly caught, Tossed of Satan to and fro, Counting goodness all for naught; By the world and flesh deceived, Heaven’s true joys we disbelieved. 5. Then were hidden from our eyes All the law and grace of God; Rich and poor, the fools and wise, Wanting light to find the road Leading to the heavenly life, Wandered lost in care and strife. 6. But the glory of the Lord Hath arisen on us today; We have seen the light outpoured That must surely drive away All things that to night belong, All the sad earth’s woe and wrong. 7. Thy arising, Lord, shall fill All my thoughts in sorrow’s hour; Thy arising, Lord, shall still All my dread of death’s dark power; Through my smiles and through my tears Still Thy light, O Lord, appears. 8. Let me, Lord in peace depart From this evil world to Thee; Where Thyself sole Brightness art, Thou hast kept a place for me: In the shining city there Crowns of light Thy saints shall wear.

Hark the trumpet’s awful sound, Louder than a thousand thunders, Shakes the vast creation round! How the summons Will the sinner’s heart confound! 2 See the Lord in the glory nearing, Clothed in majesty divine, You who long for His appearing, Then shall say, “This God is mine!” Gracious Savior, Gracious Savior, Own me in that day as Thine. 3 At His call the dead awaken, Rise to life form earth and sea! All the powers of nature shaken By His looks prepare to flee. Careless sinner, Careless sinner, What will then become of thee? 4 But to those who have confessed Loved and served the Lord below, He will say, “Come near, ye blessed, See the kingdom I bestow; You forever, You forever Shall my love and glory know.” Topics: Doctrines Resurrection of the Saints Tune Title: UNSER HERRSCHER

We are free from evil's prison, Risen to a holier state; And a brighter Easter beam On our longing eyes shall stream. Topics: Easter Languages: English Tune Title: UNSER HERRSCHER
