Floating o'er Judea's plains

Author: Dr. A. D. Watson, 1859- Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Advent Second Coming of Christ Lyrics: 1 Floating o'er Judea's plains, And down the echoing height, Hark, the love-evangel strains Are blending with the night, Angel voices from the sky With music fill each vale and glen: "Glory be to God on high, On earth, good will to men." 2 Still is heard the shepherd's quest That rose to Bethlehem's walls, Burdened with a great unrest, The world for Christ still calls, From the vales and hills He trod, Still rings the song that ne'er shall cease: "Glory, glory be to God, To men, good will and peace." 3 Evermore that wondrous strain The door of hope unbars, Whether in the cloistered fane Or 'neath the Syrian stars, Sing the joy-notes once again, And let them echo to the sky: "Peace on earth, good will to men, Glory to God on high." 4 Angel harps, our souls inspire With grace to conquer wrong, Fill us with a deep desire To live the angel song, Till the life of love be found In every land beneath the sky, Till the whole wide world resound: "Glory to God on high." Used With Tune: SYRIAN STARS

Let ev'ry heart a fit oblation Bring unto Him with songs of praise. O contemplate in humbleness The pow'r and riches of his grace. 2 In Him we live and have our being; And all the hosts of heav'n and earth The living God, all-wise, all-seeing, Thro' His own Spirit brought to birth. His holy Name, writ in His Word, Thro' all the universe is heard. 3 The Lord who laid the earth's foundation, And for the stars their course decreed, Whose hand hath ordered all creation, Provideth for our every need; For God is Love: the Father's care His smallest child shall duly share. 4 From out the gloom mine eye descrieth The Maker's footprints in the sky; the starry chorus testifieth To His eternal majesty; While on my path each tiny flower Proclaims His glory and His power. 5 Into Thy hand, O God Almighty, My weal and woe I will entrust; My need Thou seest who takest pity On every worm that crawls the dust. In pleasure's path or sorrow's way Be Thou my Guide, O Lord, I pray. 6 And when the morning star appeareth, Thy grace, Thy glory we proclaim; When falls the dew, and evening neareth, O Lord, we call upon Thy Name. Upon Thy mercy we rely, Father, Creator, God on high. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 19 Used With Tune: WIE WEISS, WIE NAHE MIR MEIN ENDE

Who sends His heav’n-descended peace To dwell with man below."
