Is Not This the Land of Beulah?

Author: William Hunter Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Appears in 202 hymnals Matching Instances: 89 First Line: I am dwelling on the mountain Lyrics: 1 I am dwelling on the mountain, Where the golden sunlight gleams O’er a land whose wondrous beauty Far exceeds my fondest dreams; Where the air is pure, ethereal, Laden with the breath of flow’rs, They are blooming by the fountain, ’Neath the amaranthine bow’rs. Refrain: Is not this the land of Beulah? Blessed, blessed land of light, Where the flowers bloom forever, And the sun is always bright! 2 I can see far down the mountain, Where I wandered weary years, Often hindered in my journey By the ghosts of doubts and fears; Broken vows and disappointments Thickly sprinkled all the way, But the Spirit led, unerring, To the land I hold today. [Refrain] 3 I am drinking at the fountain, Where I ever would abide; For I’ve tasted life’s pure river, And my soul is satisfied; There’s no thirsting for life’s pleasures, Nor adorning, rich and gay, For I’ve found a richer treasure, One that fadeth not away. [Refrain] 4 Tell me not of heavy crosses, Nor of burdens hard to bear, For I’ve found this great salvation Makes each burden light appear; And I love to follow Jesus, Gladly counting all but dross, Worldly honors all forsaking For the glory of the cross. [Refrain] 5 Oh, the cross has wondrous glory! Oft I’ve proved this to be true; When I’m in the way so narrow, I can see a pathway through; And how sweetly Jesus whispers: “Take the cross, thou need’st not fear, For I’ve tried the way before thee,” And the glory lingers near. [Refrain] Scripture: Isaiah 62:4 Used With Tune: WATCHMAN

Brewer Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Appears in 81 hymnals Matching Instances: 30 First Line: Watchman, tell me, does the morning Lyrics: 1 Watchman, tell me, does the morning Of fair Zion’s glory dawn; Have the signs that mark His coming Yet upon thy pathway shone? Pilgrim, yes, arise, look round thee, Light is breaking in the skies; Spurn the unbelief that bound thee, Morning dawns, arise, arise! 2 Pilgrim, in that golden city, Seated in the jasper throne, Zion’s King, arrayed in beauty, Reigns in peace from zone to zone; There, on verdant hills and mountains, Where the golden sunbeams play, Purling streams and crystal fountains Sparkle in th’ eternal day. 3 Pilgrim, see, the light is beaming Brighter still upon thy way; Signs through all the earth are gleaming, Omens of the coming day, When the last loud trumpet, sounding, Shall awake from earth and sea All the saints of God now sleeping, Clad in immortality! 4 Watchman, lo, the land we’re nearing With its vernal fruits and flow’rs! On just yonder, oh, how cheering! Bloom forever Eden’s bow’rs; Hark, the choral strains are ringing, Wafted on the balmy air! See the millions, hear them singing! Soon the pilgrims will be there.

God is Able

Author: M. W. Knapp Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 First Line: "God is able" to deliver Refrain First Line: "God is able," God has promised Lyrics: 1 “God is able” to deliver, All our sins He will forgive, Blotting them all out forever, When repentant we believe. “God is able” to baptize us With the Holy Spirit now, Cleansing from inbred corruption, As we at His altar bow. Chorus: “God is able,” God has promised; On His word my soul relies; He delivers, Hallelujah! Fully saves and sanctifies. 2 “God is able,” He has promised All His grace to make abound, Giving strength for ev’ry conflict, All our tempters to confound. “God is able,” He has spoken, What He says, that He will do; For His word “cannot be broken;” He is faithful, He is true. [Chorus] 3 “God is able,” He can heal us, Bear our sicknesses away, Touch us with His balm of blessing, As we call on Him today. “God is able” out of trial Vict’ry to His own to bring; So that in the “fiery furnace” We can shout and laugh and sing. [Chorus] 4 “God is able,” Kept from falling, Pure and spotless we may be, And before His throne eternal Meet and spend eternity. “God is able,” Satan, hear it! In His might we shall prevail, On His promises relying, We can never, never fail. [Chorus] Used With Tune: ["God is able" to deliver]

Gracious Father, guard thy children

Author: Anon. Appears in 11 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Gracious Father, guard thy children From the foe's destructive power; Save, O save them, Lord from falling In this dark and trying hour. Thou wilt surely prove thy people, All our graces must be tried; But thy word illumes our pathway, And in God we still confide. 2 We are in the time of waiting; Soon we shall behold our Lord, Wafted far away from sorrow, To receive our rich reward. Keep us, Lord, till thine appearing, Pure, unspotted from the world; Let thy Holy Spirit cheer us Till thy banner is unfurled. 3 With what joyful exultation Shall the saints thy banner see, When the Lord for whom we've waited Shall proclaim the Jubilee! Freedom from this world's pollutions; Freedom from all sin and pain; Freedom from the wiles of Satan, And from death's destructive reign.
