Plunged in a gulf of dark despair
Within thy house, O Lord, our God
Author: Unknown Appears in 91 hymnals Used With Tune: MAITLAND
Within thy house, O Lord, our God
Arise And Shine, Your Light Is Come
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics:
1 Arise and shine, your light is come,
Fair islands of the West!
Awake and sing, once deaf and dumb,
Now islands of the blest.
2 Shine, for the glory of the Lord
Your coral reefs surrounds:
Sing, for the trumpet of His word
O’er all your ocean sounds.
3 Poor Africa! through thy waste sands,
Where Calvary’s fountain flows,
Deserts become Immanuel’s lands,
And blossom like the rose.
4 India, beneath the chariot wheels
Of Juggernaut o’erthrown,
Thy heart a quickening spirit feels,
A pulse beats through the stone.
5 O China! see thy quaking wall:
Foredoomed by Heav’n’s decree,
A hand is writing on it— "Fall!"
A voice goes forth— "Be free!"
6 Ye pagan tribes! of every race,
Clime, country, language, hue,
Believe, obey, be saved by grace,
The Gospel speaks to you.
7 Father of lights! Thy will be done
Here, as by saints above;
Give earth’s whole empire to Thy Son,
For He must reign in love.
8 Reign, till beneath His feet, all foes
Forever vanquished lie;
And the last judgment’s sentence close
The book of prophecy.

Arise And Shine, Your Light Is Come
How Hast Thou, Lord, From Year To Year
Author: Thomas Gibbons, 1720-1785 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How hast Thou, Lord, from year to year,
Our land with plenty crowned!
And generous fruit and golden grain
Have spread their riches round.
2 But we Thy mercies have abused
To more abounding crimes;
What heights, what daring heights in sin
Disgrace and mark our times!
3 Equal, though awful, is the doom,
That fierce descending rain
Should into inundations swell,
And crush the rising grain!
4 How just, that in the autumn’s reign,
When we had hoped to reap,
Our fields of sorrow and despair
Should lie a hideous heap!
5 But Lord, have mercy on our land,
Those floods of vengeance stay:
Dispel these glooms, and let the sun
Shine in unclouded day!
6 To Thee alone we look for help;
None else of dew or rain
Can give the world the smallest drop
Or smallest drop restrain. Used With Tune: MAITLAND
