The Birds are Singing

Hymnal: TS21889 #72 (1889) First Line: The birds are singing on the trees Lyrics: 1 The birds are singing on the trees And flowers bedeck the ground; Amid these things so sweet and fair, Our voices may resound; This day our Lord ascended high, With solemn jubilee, Then let us join the angel choirs In glad festivity. 2 Welcome to us is Christmas morn, For then our Savior mild, In Bethlehem for us was born A dread and holy child; But oh, with Christmas carols glad, Are blent some notes of woe, To think what anguish for our sakes That heav’nly babe must know. 3 And good for us that blessed day, On which our Savior died, And shed the water and the blood From out his precious side. We thank the Lord who saved us thus, But glad we dare not be, For thinking of the crown of thorns And of the blood-stained tree. 4 Our Easter day is glad and bright And alleluias ring From all the church to welcome back Her risen Lord and King. Yet not at blessed Easter tide The triumph is complete, Our Savior lingers still on earth, Far from his father’s seat. 5 But blest Ascension day to us Brings happiness alone, We joy with our triumphant Lord, Ascending to his throne. The angels welcome him on high, With glad and solemn lay; Then let us echo back their songs This bright Ascension Day. Tune Title: [The birds are singing on the trees]

The Mercy Seat

The mercy-seat, the mercy-seat, ’Tis found beneath the mercy seat; There is a calm, a sure retreat, ’Tis found beneath the mercy seat. 2 There is a place where Jesus sheds The oil of gladness on our heads; A place than all besides more sweet; It is the blood bought mercy seat. The mercy-seat, the mercy-seat, It is the blood bought mercy seat; A place than all beside more sweet, It is the blood bought mercy seat. 3 There is a spot where spirits blend, Where friend holds fellowship with friend Tho’ sundered far, by faith they meet Around one common mercy seat. The mercy-seat, the mercy-seat, Around one common mercy seat; Tho’ sundered far, by faith they meet, Around one common mercy seat. 4 There, there on eagles’ wings we soar, And time and sense molest no more; And heav’n comes down our souls to greet, And glory crowns the mercy seat. The mercy-seat, the mercy-seat, And glory crowns the mercy seat; And heav’n comes down our souls to greet, And glory crowns the mercy seat. 5 Oh, let my hand forget her skill, My tongue be silent, cold, and still, This bounding heart forget to beat, If I forget the mercy seat. The mercy-seat, the mercy-seat, If I forget the mercy seat, This bounding heart forget to beat, If I forget the mercy seat. Tune Title: [From every stormy wind that blows]
