How bright these glorious spirits shine!

Author: Isaac Watts; William Cameron Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 158 hymnals Lyrics: How bright these glorious spirits shine! Whence all their white array? How came they to the blissful seats Of everlasting day? Lo, these are they from sufferings great, Who came to realms of light: And in the blood of Christ have washed Those robes which shine so bright. Now with triumphal palms they stand Before the throne on high, And serve the God they love amidst The glories of the sky. His presence fills each heart with joy, Tunes every mouth to sing; By day, by night, the sacred courts With glad hosannas ring. 277 The Lamb which reigns upon the throne Shall o'er them still preside; Feed them with nourishment divine, And all their footsteps guide. 'Mong pastures green he'll lead his flock, Where living streams appear; And God the Lord from every eye Shall wipe off every tear. Topics: Holy Days All Saints Used With Tune: ROSEATE HUES

Jesus, crowned with all renown

Author: Edward White Benson Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: Jesus, crowned with all renown, Since thou the earth hast trod, Thou reignest, and by thee come down Henceforth the gifts of God. Thine is the health and thine the wealth That in our halls abound, And thine the beauty and the joy With which the years are crowned. Lord, in their change, let frost and heat, And winds and dews be given; All fostering power, all influence sweet, Breathe from the bounteous heaven. Attemper fair with gentle air The sunshine and the rain, That kindly earth with timely birth May yield her fruits again: That we may feed the poor aright, And, gathering round thy throne, Here, in the holy angels' sight, Repay thee of thine own: That we may praise thee all our days, And with the Father's Name, And with the Holy Spirit's gifts, The Savior's love proclaim. Amen. Topics: Rogation Days; Thanksgiving Day; Brotherhood and Service Used With Tune: ROSEATE HUES
