Author: J. H. Saxton Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. See the gold upon the hills, See the opal in the sky; Trembling dawn each valley fills, Christ’s own morning draweth nigh. 2. His the kingdom, His the crown, His the ages yet to be; All the lands of fair renown, And the islands of the sea. 3. All the hungers of the race, All the wounds from which men cry: All are met in Jesus’ grace; He doth heal and satisfy. 4. None are strangers to His care, Royal gifts for all are free; All mankind His brethren are, And the world His Galilee. 5. Victor He, when conquerors fail, King o’er all, when monarchs die; He shall through the earth prevail, Win the last long victory. 6. His the gold upon the hills, His the light across the sea; His the purpose that fulfills, His the day that is to be. Used With Tune: SHERBORNE (Mendelssohn)

Bless, O Lord, The Opening Year

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 50 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Bless, O Lord, the opening year, To each soul assembled here: Clothe Thy Word with power divine, Make us willing to be Thine. 2 Shepherd of Thy blood-bought sheep! Teach the stony heart to weep; Let the blind have eyes to see, See themselves, and look on Thee! 3 Let the minds of all our youth Feel the force of sacred truth; While the Gospel call they hear, May they learn to love and fear. 4 Show them what their ways have been, Show the desert of their sin; Then Thy dying love reveal, This shall melt a heart of steel. 5 Where Thou hast Thy work begun, Give new strength the race to run; Scatter darkness, doubts and fears, Wipe away the mourners’ tears. 6 Bless us all both old and young; Call forth praise from every tongue: Let the whole assembly prove All Thy power, and all Thy love.
