No Track Is On The Sunny Sky

Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11750 Meter: 8.6.8.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 No track is on the sunny sky, No footprints on the air; Jesus hath gone: the face of earth Is desolate and bare. 2 The Upper Room is Heaven on earth; Within its precincts lie All that earth has of faith, or hope, Or heaven-born charity. 3 One moment—and the silentness Was breathless as the grave; The fluttered earth forgot to quake, The troubled trees to wave. 4 He comes! He comes! that mighty Breath From Heaven’s eternal shores; His uncreated freshness fills His Bride, as she adores. 5 Earth quakes before that rushing blast, Heaven echoes back the sound, And mightily the tempest wheels That Upper Room around. 6 One moment—and the Spirit hung O’er all with dread desire; Then broke upon the heads of all In cloven tongues of fire.
