Thousands of thousands stand around
Author: John Mason Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thousands of thousands stand around
Thy throne, O God most high;
Ten thousand times ten thousand sound
Thy praise: but who as I?
2 Enlighten with faith's light my heart,
Inflame it with love's fire;
So shall I sing and bear a part
With that celestial choir.
3 How great a being, Lord, in Thine,
Which doth all beings keep!
Thy knowledge is the only line
To sound so vast a deep.
4 Thou art a Sea without a shore,
A Sun without a sphere;
Thy time is now and evermore,
Thy place is everywhere.
5 How good art Thou, whose Goodness is
Our parent, nurse, and guide:
Whose streams do water paradise,
And all the earth beside!
6 Thy hidden wonders, God of grace!
I humbly here adore;
Show me Thy glory and Thy face,
That I may praise Thee more. Topics: God His Majesty and Greatness Used With Tune: DEDHAM
Thousands of thousands stand around
Thou, Lord, Art Love, and Everywhere
Author: James D. Burns Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 32 hymnals First Line: Thou Lord, art love, and everywhere Lyrics: 1. Thou Lord, art love, and everywhere
Thy name is brightly shown;
Beneath, on earth—Thy footstool fair;
Above, in heaven—Thy throne.
2. Thy Word is love; in lines of gold
There mercy prints its trace:
In nature we Thy steps behold,
The Gospel shows Thy face.
3. Thy ways are love; though they transcend
Our feeble range of sight,
They wind through darkness to their end
In everlasting light.
4. Thy thoughts are love, and Jesus is
The loving voice they find;
His love lights up the vast abyss
Of the eternal mind.
5. Thy chastisements are love; more deep
They stamp the seal divine;
And by a sweet compulsion keep
Our spirits nearer Thine.
6. Thy heaven is the abode of love!
O blessèd Lord, that we
May there, when time’s dim shades remove,
Be gathered home to Thee!
7. Then with Thy resting saints to fall
Adoring round Thy throne,
When all shall love Thee, Lord, and all
Shall in Thy love be one. Used With Tune: CLAPHAM Text Sources: The Vision of Prophecy: and Other Poems, second edition (Edinburgh, Scotland: Edmonston and Douglas, 1858)

O Thou Great Teacher from the Skies
Author: Thomas C. Upham Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Thou great teacher from the skies,
Who lived and died for men;
Teach us with Thee to sympathize,
And be as Thou wast then.
2. It was the glory of Thy heart,
Whate’er Thou hadst to give;
For others’ sufferings to impart,
For others’ good to live.
3. Be Thou in us a living soul;
Be Thou our spirit’s power;
Its secret thought, its life’s control,
To guide it every hour.
4. W need like Thee a spirit true,
A just and generous mind,
Which seeks, in all it has to do,
The good of all mankind. Used With Tune: GARDINER
