The Chariot
The Lord's Knocking
Author: Herbert Kynaston Meter: 11.12.11.12 Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: The night is far spent, and the day is at hand Lyrics: 1 The night is far spent, and the day is at hand,
There are signs in the heaven, and signs on the land,
In the wavering earth, and the drought of the sea—
But He stands and He knocks, sinner, nearer to thee.
2 His night winds but whisper until the day break
To the Bride, for in slumber her heart is awake:
He must knock at the sleep where the revelers toss
With the dint of the nails and the shock of the cross.
3 Look out at the casement, see how He appears,
Still weeping for thee all Gethsemane’s tears;
Ere they plait Him earth’s thorns, in its solitude crowned,
With the drops of the night and the dew of the ground.
4 Will you wait? Will you slumber until He is gone?
Till the beam of the timber cry out to the stone?
Till He shout at thy sepulcher, tear it apart,
And knock at the dust, Who would speak to thy heart? Used With Tune: CHARIOT Text Sources: Occasional Hymns (London: R. Clay, Son & Taylor, 1862)
The Lord's Knocking
The Saviour is coming, O children of light!
Author: W. H. Littlejohn Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 The Saviour is coming, O children of light!
With hosts of the angels, the angels of might,
Adown the bright azure, with banners of flame,
He'll come soon in triumph his loved ones to claim.
2 The trumpet long sounding, with notes loud and shrill,
The dead will awaken in valley and hill.
The touch of the Master we all soon shall feel;
He'll make us immortal, while glad anthems peal.
3 Away toward the city, the city of gold,
We'll mount with the Master, in numbers untold.
He'll deck every forehead with coronet bright,
He'll robe each believer in garments of white.
4 Through heaven's high portals we'll enter at last,
With shouts of rejoicing, our sorrows all past.
Along the bright river, the river of life,
We'll wander together, our souls free from strife.
5 With harps and with voices we'll join in the song
Of Moses, the faithful, and Jesus, the strong,
Then shout, O ye children, ye children of light,
The Saviour is coming: he's almost in sight! Topics: Second Advent Executive Judgment Used With Tune: CHARIOT
The Saviour is coming, O children of light!
