Glory, glory, To the Lamb that once was slain! 3 Glory to the King of angels! Glory to the Church's King! Glory to the King of nations! Heaven and earth, your praises bring:-- Glory, glory, To the King of Glory bring! 4 Glory, blessing, praise eternal! Thus the choir of angels sings, Honor, riches, power, dominion! Thus its praise creation brings; Glory, glory, Glory to the King of kings! Amen. Topics: The Church Year Trinity Sunday-The Holy Trinity Used With Tune: ST. RAPHAEL

O'er the distant mountains breaking

Author: J.S.B. Monsell Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 113 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O’er the distant mountains breaking, Comes the reddening dawn of day; Rise, my soul, from sleep awaking, Rise, and sing, and watch, and pray; ’Tis thy Savior, On His bright returning way. 2 O Thou Long-expected, weary Waits my anxious soul for Thee, Life is dark, and earth is dreary, When Thy light I do not see; O my Savior, When wilt Thou return to me? 3 Nearer is my soul’s salvation, Spent the night, the day at hand; Keep me, in my lowly station, Watching for Thee, till I stand, O my Savior, In Thy bright, Thy promised land. 4 With my lamp well trimmed and burning, Swift to hear and slow to roam, Watching for Thy glad returning To restore me to my home. Come, my Savior, Thou hast promised, quickly come.

Speed Thy servants, Saviour, speed them

Author: T. Kelley Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 79 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Speed Thy servants, Saviour, speed them; Thou art Lord of winds and waves, They were bound, but Thou hast freed them; Now they go to free the slaves; Be Thou with them: 'Tis Thine arm alone that saves. 2 Friends and home and all forsaking, Lord, they go at Thy command, As their stay Thy promise taking, While they traverse sea and land: Oh, be with them! Lead them safely by the hand. 3 When they reach the land of strangers, And the prospect dark appears, Nothing seen but toils and dangers, Nothing felt but doubts and fears, Be Thou with them; Hear their sighs, and count their tears. 4 Where no fruit appears to cheer them, And they seem to toil in vain: Then in mercy, Lord, draw near them, Then their sinking hopes sustain: Thus supported, Let their zeal revive again. 5 In the midst of opposition, Let them trust, O Lord, in Thee; When success attends their mission, Let Thy servants humbler be; Never leave them, Till Thy face in heaven they see: 6 There to reap in joy forever Fruit that grows from seed here sown; There to be with Him, Who never Ceases to preserve His own; And with gladness Give the praise to Him alone. Amen. Topics: Missions Used With Tune: ST. RAPHAEL
