All the earth at Thy request I will give Thee for Thy own; Then Thy might shall be confessed And Thy foes be overthrown; Then Thy might shall be confessed And Thy foes be overthrown. 4 Therefore, kings, be wise, give ear, Hearken, judges of the earth; Learn to serve the Lord with fear. Mingle trembling with your mirth. Kiss the Son, lest o'er our way His consuming wrath should break; But supremely blest are they Who in Christ their refuge take; But supremely blest are they Who in Christ their refuge take.

How calm and beautiful the morn

Author: Thomas Hastings Appears in 175 hymnals Topics: Christ Triumph of Lyrics: 1 How calm and beautiful the morn That gilds the sacred tomb, Where once the Crucified was borne, And veiled in midnight gloom. Oh, weep no more the Saviour slain, The Lord is risen, He lives again. 2 Ye mourning saints, dry every tear For your departed Lord: "Behold the place, He is not here," The tomb is all unbarred; The gates of death were closed in vain, The Lord is risen, He lives again. 3 How tranquil now the rising day! 'Tis Jesus still appears, A risen Lord, to chase away Your unbelieving fears: Oh, weep no more your comforts slain, The Lord is risen, He lives again. 4 And when the shades of evening fall, When life's last hour draws nigh, If Jesus shine upon the soul, How blissful then to die; Since He has risen that once was slain, Ye die in Christ to live again. Amen. Used With Tune: HASTINGS
