Day of Wrath, O Day of Mourning
Author: William J. Irons; Thomas de Celano Meter: 8.8.8 Appears in 108 hymnals Scripture: Zephaniah 1:15-16 First Line: Day of wrath, O day of mourning Lyrics: 1 Day of wrath, O day of mourning!
See fulfilled the Prophets' warning,
Heav'n and earth in ashes burning.
2 Oh, what fear man's bosom rendeth
When from heav'n the Judge descendeth
On whose sentence all dependeth!
3 Wondrous sound the trumpet flingeth,
Thro' earth's sepulchers it ringeth,
All before the throne it bringeth.
4 Death is struck and nature quaking;
All creation is awaking,
To its Judge an answer making.
5 Lo, the book, exactly worded,
Wherein all hath been recorded;
Thence shall judgment be awarded.
6 When the Judge his seat attaineth
And each hidden deed arraigneth,
Nothing unavenged remaineth.
7 What shall I, frail man, be pleading?
Who for me be interceding
When the just are mercy needing?
8 King of majesty tremendous,
Who dost free salvation send us,
Fount of pity, then befriend us!
9 Think, good Jesus, my salvation
Cost Thy wondrous incarnation;
Leave me not to reprobation!
10 Faint and weary Thou hast sought me,
On the cross of suffering bought me;
Shall such grace be vainly brought me?
11 Righteous Judge, for sin's pollution
Grant thy gift of absolution
Ere that day of retribution!
12 Guilty, now I pour my moaning,
All my shame with anguish owning;
Spare, O God, Thy suppliant groaning!
13 From that sinful woman shriven,
From the dying thief forgiven,
Thou to me a hope hast given.
14 Worthless are my prayers and sighing;
Yet, good Lord, in grace complying,
Rescue me from fires undying!
15 With Thy favored sheep, oh, place me!
Nor among the goats abase me,
But to Thy right hand upraise me.
16 While the wicked are confounded,
Doomed to flames of woe unbounded,
Call me, with Thy saints surrounded.
17 Low I kneel with heart-submission,
See, like ashes, my contrition;
Help me in my last condition!
18 Day of sorrow, day of weeping,
When, in dust no longer sleeping,
Man awakes in Thy dread keeping!
19 To the rest Thou didst prepare me
On Thy cross; O Christ, upbear me!
Spare, O God, in mercy spare me!
Amen. Topics: The Last Things Judgment Used With Tune: DIES IRAE

That day of wrath, that dreadful day
Let all mortal flesh keep silence
Author: G. Moultrie, 18291-885 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 172 hymnals Scripture: Zephaniah 1:7 Lyrics: 1 Let all mortal flesh keep silence
and with fear and trembling stand;
ponder nothing earthly-minded,
for with blessing in his hand
Christ our God on earth descendeth,
our full homage to demand.
2 King of kings, yet born of Mary,
as of old on earth he stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
in the body and the blood.
He will give to all the faithful
his own self for heav'nly food.
3 Rank on rank the host of heaven
spreads its vanguard on the way,
as the Light of light descendeth
from the realms of endless day,
that the pow'rs of hell may vanish
as the darkness clears away.
4 At his feet the six-winged seraph;
cherubim, with sleepless eye,
veil their faces to the Presence,
as with ceaseless voice they cry,
alleluia, alleluia,
alleluia, Lord most high. Topics: Advent; Holy Communion Used With Tune: PICARDY Text Sources: Liturgy of St. James

Our thoughts must now employ;
Then let us meet him on the road
With songs of holy joy.

A maiden's offspring see;
A servant's form Christ putteth on,
To set his people free.
3 Daughter of Sion rise
To greet thine infant King;
Nor let thy stubborn heart despise
The pardon he doth bring.
4 In glory from his throne
Again will Christ descend,
And summon all who are his own
To joys that never end.
5 Let deeds of darkness fly
Before the approaching morn,
For unto sin 'tis ours to die
And serve the Virgin-born.

To Christ, who set us free;
Like tribute to the Father bring,
And Holy Ghost, to thee. Topics: The Liturgical Year Advent (Sundays and Weekdays) Used With Tune: ST. THOMAS (WILLIAMS) Text Sources: Paris Breviary, 1736
