Through The Night Of Doubt And Sorrow

Author: B. S. Ingemann Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #143 (1927) Lyrics: 1 Thro the night of doubt and sorrow Onward goes the pilgrim band, Singing songs of expectation, Marching to the Promised Land. Clear before us, thro the darkness, Gleams and burns the guiding light. Brother clasps the hand of brother, Stepping fearless through the night. 2 One the light of God’s own presence, O’er His ransomed people shed, Chasing far the gloom and terror, Bright'ning all the path we tread: One the object of our journey, One the faith which never tires, One the earnest looking forward, One the hope our God inspires. 3 One the strain that lips of thousands Lift as from the heart of one; One the conflict, one the peril, One the march in God begun: One the gladness of rejoicing On the far eternal shore, Where the One Almighty Father Reigns in love for evermore. 4 Onward therefore, pilgrim brothers? Onward, with the cross our aid! Bear its shame, and fight its battle, Till we rest beneath its shade! Soon shall come the great awaking, Soon, the rending of the tomb, Then the scatt'ring of all shadows, And the end of toil and gloom.

Watchman, Tell Us of the Night

Author: John Bowring Hymnal: The Hymnbook #149 (1955) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Watchman, tell us of the night, What its signs of promise are: Traveler, o'er yon mountain's height, See that glory-beaming star! Watchman, doth its beauteous ray Aught of joy or hope foretell? Traveler, yes; it brings the day, Promised day of Israel. 2 Watchman, tell us of the night; Higher yet that star ascends: Traveler, blessedness and light, Peace and truth, its course portends. Watchman, will its beams alone Gild the spot that gave them birth? Traveler, ages are its own, And it bursts o'er all the earth! 3 Watchman, tell us of the night; For the morning seems to dawn: Traveler, darkness takes its flight; Doubt and terror are withdrawn. Watchman, let thy wanderings cease; Hie thee to thy quiet home. Traveler, lo, the Prince of Peace, Lo, the Son of God, is come! Amen.

Through the Night of Sin and Terror

Author: Martha F. Bellinger Hymnal: Hymns of Praise Number Two #151 (1925) First Line: Thro' the night of sin and terror Lyrics: 1 Thro’ the night of sin and terror, Thro’ grim war’s revolting gloom, Gleamed the Faith that conquers error, Breaks the clouds and cheats the tomb. Rise, O brothers, light the torches Bring to men their hearts’ desire; Conqu’ring Christians, lift the signal Light of faith’s undying fire. 2 Down the sorrow-burdened ages Since Christ spoke the mystic word, Shone a light upon time’s pages, Flick’ring light of hope deferred. Rise, O brothers, light the torches, Lift the hearts of men still high’r; Conqu’ring Christians, lift the signal Light of hope’s undying fire. 3 Build ye now the kingdom glorious, Christ’s abundant mission prove; Faith and hope once more victorious Triumph thro’ atoning love. Rise, O brothers, light the torches, Raise God’s standard high above; Conqu’ring Christians, lift the signal Light of God’s undying Love!
