Let all thy days till life shall end, whate'er he send, be filled with praise. Languages: English Tune Title: DARWALL'S 148TH

Not to the terrors of the Lord

Hymnal: The Book of Worship #125 (1867) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Church Triumphant Lyrics: 1 Not to the terrors of the Lord, The tempest, fire, and smoke: Not to the thunder of that Word Which God on Sinai spoke; 2 But we are come to Sion’s hill, The city of our God, Where milder words declare His will, And spread His love abroad. 3 Behold th’innumerable host Of angels clothed in light: Behold the spirits of the just Whose faith is changed to sight. 4 Behold the blest assembly there Whose names are writ in heaven; And God, the Judge of all, declare Their sins, through Christ, forgiven. 5 Angels, and living saints, and dead But one communion make: All join in Christ their vital Head, And of His love partake.

Hark! the song of jubilee

Hymnal: The Book of Worship #126 (1867) Topics: The Church Triumphant Lyrics: 1 Hark! the song of jubilee, Loud as mighty thunders roar, Or the fullness of the sea, When it breaks upon the shore! 2 See, Jehovah's banner's furled; Sheathed His sword: He speaks,--'tis done! And the kingdoms of this world Are the kingdoms of His Son. 3 He shall reign from pole to pole With supreme unbounded sway; He shall reign, when, like a scroll, Yonder heavens have passed away. 4 Hallelujah! for the Lord God omnipotent shall reign; Hallelujah!--let the word Echo round the earth and main. 5 Hallelujah! hark! the sound, From the centre to the skies, Wakes above, beneath, around, All creation's harmonies. 6 Then the end--beneath His rod, Man's last enemy shall fall: Hallelujah! Christ in God, God in Christ, is All in All. Languages: English
