Mine eyes their vigils keep;

Thy happy name, they weep:
The mention of thy glory'

And medicine in sickness,
And love, and life, and rest.

O paradise of joy,
Where tears are ever banished,
And smiles have no alloy!
The cross is all thy splendor,
The Crucified thy praise;
His laud and benediction
Thy ransomed people raise.
3 Thou hast no shore, fair ocean!
Thou hast no time, bright day!
Dear fountain of refreshment
To pilgrims far away!
Upon the Rock of Ages
They raise the holy tower;
Thine is the victor's laurel
And thine the golden dower.

From the eastern mountains
Author: Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 164 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 21:4 Lyrics: 1 From the eastern mountains
pressing on they come,
wise men in their wisdom,
to his humble home;
stirred by deep devotion,
hasting from afar,
ever journeying onward,
guided by a star.
2 There their Lord and Saviour
meek and lowly lay,
wondrous light that led them
onward on their way,
ever now to lighten
nations from afar,
as they journey homeward
by that guiding star.
3 Thou who in a manger
once hast lowly lain,
who dost now in glory
o'er all kingdoms reign,
gather in the peoples,
who in lands afar
ne'er have seen the brightness
of thy guiding star.
*4 Gather in the outcasts,
all who've gone astray;
throw thy radiance o'er them,
guide them on their way:
those who never knew thee,
those who've wandered far,
guide them by the brightness
of thy guiding star.
*5 Onward through the darkness
of the lonely night,
shining still before them
with thy kindly light,
guide them, Jew and Gentile,
homeward from afar,
young and old together,
by thy guiding star.
6 Until every nation,
whether bond or free,
'neath thy star-lit banner,
Jesu, follow thee
o'er the distant mountains
to that heavenly home,
where nor sin nor sorrow
evermore shall come. Topics: Epiphany; Epiphany Used With Tune: EVELYNS
