The Prince of Peace

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 356 hymnals Topics: Millennium; Millennium First Line: Light of those whose dreary dwelling Lyrics: 1 Light of those whose dreary dwelling Borders on the shades of death! Rise on us, thy love revealing, Dissipate the clouds beneath: Thou of heaven and earth Creator, In our deepest darkness rise, Scattering all the night of nature, Pouring day upon our eyes. 2 Still we wait for thine appearing; Life and joy thy beams impart, Chasing all our fears, and cheering Every poor benighted heart: Come and manifest thy favor To the ransomed, helpless race; Come, thou glorious God and Saviour! Come, and bring the gospel grace. 3 Save us, in thy great compassion, O thou mild, pacific Prince! Give the knowledge of salvation, Give the pardon of our sins; By thine all-sufficient merit, Every burdened soul release; Every weary, wandering spirit, Guide into thy perfect peace. Used With Tune: MIDDLETON

Come, Ye Children of the Lord

Author: James H. Wallis, 1861–1940 Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Millennium Lyrics: 1. Come, ye children of the Lord, Let us sing with one accord. Let us raise a joyful strain To our Lord who soon will reign On this earth when it shall be Cleansed from all iniquity, When all men from sin will cease, And will live in love and peace. 2. Oh, how joyful it will be When our Savior we shall see! When in splendor he’ll descend, Then all wickedness will end. Oh, what songs we then will sing To our Savior, Lord, and King! Oh, what love will then bear sway When our fears shall flee away! 3. All arrayed in spotless white, We will dwell ’mid truth and light. We will sing the songs of praise; We will shout in joyous lays. Earth shall then be cleansed from sin. Ev’ry living thing therein Shall in love and beauty dwell; Then with joy each heart will swell.

Jesus shall reign where'er the sun

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,821 hymnals Topics: Millennium Lyrics: 1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Does his successive journeys run; His kingdom stretch from shore to shore, Till moons shall wax and wane no more. 2 People and realms of ev'ry tongue Dwell on His love with grateful song; And with united hearts proclaim That grace and truth by Jesus came. 3 Blessings abound where'er He reigns: The pris'ner leaps to loose his chains, The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blest. 4 Where He displays His healing power, The sting of death is known no more: In Him the sons of Adam boast More blessings than their father lost.

Isaiah 21:11

Author: John Bowring Appears in 870 hymnals Topics: Millennium; Millennium First Line: Watchman, tell us of the night Lyrics: 1 Watchman, tell us of the night, What its signs of promise are. Traveler, o'er yon mountain's height, See that glory-beaming star! Watchman, does its beauteous ray Aught of joy or hope foretell! Traveler, yes: it brings the day, Promised day of Israel. 2 Watchman, tell us of the night: Higher yet that star ascends. Traveler, blessedness and light, Peace and truth, its course portends. Watchman, will its beams alone Gild the spot that gave them birth? Traveler, ages are its own; See! it bursts o'er all the earth! 3 Watchman, tell us of the night, For the morning seems to dawn. Traveler, darkness takes its flight, Doubt and terror are withdrawn. Watchman, let thy wanderings cease; Hie thee to thy quiet home. Traveler, lo! the Prince of Peace, Lo! the Son of God is come!

Author: James Montgomery Appears in 447 hymnals Topics: Millennium; Millennium First Line: Hark! the song of jubilee Lyrics: 1 Hark! the song of jubilee, Loud as mighty thunders roar, Or the fullness of the sea, When it breaks upon the shore! Hallelujah! for the Lord God omnipotent shall reign! Hallelujah! let the word Echo round the earth and main. 2 Hallelujah! hark, the sound, From the depths unto the skies, Wakes above, beneath, around, All creation's harmonies! See Jehovah's banners furled! Sheathed his sword! he speaks 'tis done! And the kingdoms of this world Are the kingdoms of his Son! 3 He shall reign from pole to pole, With illimitable sway; He shall reign, when like a scroll Yonder heavens have passed away. Then the end: beneath his rod Man's last enemy shall fall: Hallelujah! Christ in God, God in Christ, is all in all!
