Ak, mon min Vei til Kanaan

Author: Olai Skullerud Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Longing for Heaven Lyrics: 1 Ak, mon min Vei til Kanaan Endnu er meget lang? Mon jeg kan naa det glade Land, Som snubler Gang paa Gang? Som snubler Gang paa Gang? 2 Min Fod er træt af Løvet her, Jeg staar saa tidt forsagt; Men Kanaan jeg dog har kjær, Men her maa bruges Magt, Men her maa bruges Magt. 3 Naar ene jeg paa Veien gaar, Da rinder tidt min Graad; Jeg tænker: "Mon jeg Landet naar?" Og ved mig intet Raad, Og ved mig intet Raad. 4 Mit bange Sind er ræd i Strid, Jeg er saa tidt forsagt Og tror, hvad nytter vel min Flid, Vil bort fra Bønnens Vagt, Vil bort fra Bønnens Vagt. 5 Man naar jeg smager Landets Frugt Og kjænder, den er god, Da er det mig en livets Lugt, En himmelsk Længsels Flod, En himmelsk Længsels Flod. 6 Her er ei Hvile nogen Gang; Thi Striden er saa svar; hvor var det godt, om den med Sang Hos Herren endt nu var! Hos Herren endt nu var! 7 O Kanaan, du skjønne Land! O, kunde jeg dig naa! Met Hjerte staar i Længsels Brand, O, kunde jeg dig faa! O, kunde jeg dig faa! 8 Kun fort, min Sjæl, bliv ikke træt! Du Kanaan kan naa! Kun fort, kun fort, Klenodiet Du foran ser jo staal, Du foran ser jo staal.

Joyfully, joyfully, onward we move

Appears in 322 hymnals Topics: Hope Longing for heaven Lyrics: 1 Joyfully, joyfully, onward we move, Bound to the land of bright spirits its above; Jesus, our Saviour, in mercy says, Come, Joyfully, joyfully haste to your home. Soon will our pilgrimage end here below, Soon to the presence of God we shall go, Then, if to Jesus our hearts have been given, Joyfully, joyfully, rest we in heaven. 2 Death with its arrows may soon lay us low, Safe in our Saviour, we fear not the blow; Jesus hath broken the bars of the tomb, Joyfully, joyfully, we will go home. Bright will the morn of eternity dawn. Death shall be conquered, his scepter be gone; Over the plains of sweet Canaan we'll roam, Joyfully, joyfully, safely at home.

There is a land of pure delight

Appears in 1,418 hymnals Topics: Hope Longing for heaven Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight, Where saints immortal reign; Infinite day excludes the night; And pleasures banish pain. 2 There everlasting spring abides, And never-withering flowers: Death, like a narrow sea, divides This heavenly land from ours. 3 Sweet fields, beyond the swelling flood, Stand drest in living green: So to the Jews old Canaan stood, While Jordan rolled between. 4 But timorous mortals start and shrink To cross this narrow sea, And linger, shivering, on the brink And fear to launch away. 5 Oh, could we make our doubts remove, Those gloomy doubts that rise, And view the Canaan that we love, With unbeclouded eyes! 6 Could we but climb where Moses stood, And view the landscape o'er, Not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood, Should fright us from the shore.

There is a happy land

Appears in 605 hymnals Topics: Hope Longing for heaven Lyrics: 1 There is a happy land, Far, far away, Where saints in glory stand, Bright, bright as day. Oh, how they sweetly sing, Worthy is the Saviour King, Loud let His praises ring, Praise, praise for aye! 2 Come to that happy land, Come, come away; Why will ye doubting stand, Why still delay? Oh, we shall happy be, When, from sin and sorrow free, Lord, we shall live with Thee, Blest, blest, for aye. 3 Bright, in that happy land, Beams every eye; Kept by a Father's hand, Love cannot die. Oh, then, to glory run, Be a crown and kingdom won, And, bright above the sun, We reign for aye.

O min Sjæl, du gaar og Vanker

Author: Ambr. Stub Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Longing for Heaven Lyrics: 1 O min Sjæl, du gaar og vanker Blandt de mange Verdens Ting, Samle dine vilde Tanker, Se dig oventil omkring! Ak, hvad nytter Kedars Hytter, Pilegrim, hvor er dit Hjem? Lad dit Øie Agte nøie Paa det ny Jerusalem! 2 Hele Verden gaar til Grunde Af den lille Jordens Bold, Af den store Himlens Runde Bliver intet i Behold. Agt i Tide, Du kan vide, Naar du selv af Verden gaar, At du hisset Er forvisset Om den Stad, som evig staar! 3 Sig mig dog, hvad er vel dette tabernakels jordisk' Hus? Sig mig dog, tør nogen sætte Lid paa smuldret Ler og Grus? Dette ældes, Dette fældes, O, saa maa man dog herud! Men en Bolig Evig rolig Er beredt for Lammets Brud. 4 Kast med Længsel Troens Øie Op til hin den fagre Stad, Agt paa Evighedens Høie! Trods al Satans Harm og Had, Er den fundet Fast og grundet, Murens Grundvold er saa rar, Thi af rene Ædelstene Er den glimrende og klar. 5 Stadens Porte og dens Gade er af Perler og af Guld, Hør der ere alle glade, Hør den Sang af Sødhed fuld! Hør dem kvæde I den Glæde, Som er fri for Nag og Nød, Fri for Plage, Suk og Klage, Fri for Graad og fri for Død! 6 Der er ingen Sol og Maane Paa hin evig' Himmel sat, Der er ingen Sky og Blaane, Ingen Aften, mindre Nat. Der maa være Glans og Ære, Se, den hellig' Gud er Sol! Al Ting frydes, Se, der skydes Straaler ud fra Lammets Stol! 7 O min Sjæl, du gaar og vanker Blandt de arme Verdens Ting. Samle dine vilde Tanker, Se dig oventil omkring! Herre, led mig, Og bered mig Til din Himmel, til mit Hjem! Gjør mig værdig, Gjør mig færdig Til det ny Jerusalem!
