of the coming of the Lord;
he is trampling out the vintage
where the grapes of wrath are stored;
he hath loosed the fateful lightning
of his terrible swift sword;
his truth is marching on.
Refrain:
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Glory! glory, hallelujah!
Our God is marching on.
2 I have seen him in the watchfires
of a hundred circling camps;
they have builded him an altar
in the evening dews and damps;
I can read his righteous sentence
by the dim and flaring lamps;
his day is marching on. [Refrain]
3 He has sounded forth the trumpet
that shall never call retreat;
he is sifting out the hearts of men
before his judgment seat;
O be swift, my soul, to answer him!
Be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on. [Refrain]
4 In the beauty of the lilies
Christ was born across the sea,
with a glory in his bosom
that transfigures you and me;
as he died to make men holy,
let us live to make men free,
while God is marching on. [Refrain]

The Loving-kindness of the Lord
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,053 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 63:7 First Line: Awake, my soul, in joyful lays Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, in joyful lays,
And sing thy great redeemer’s praise,
He justly claims a song from me,
His loving-kindness O how free!
2 He saw me ruin'd in the fall,
Yet lov'd me not withstanding all;
He sav'd me from my lost estate,
His loving-kindness O how great!
3 Tho' numerous hosts of mighty foes,
Tho' earth and hell my way oppose,
He safely leads my soul along,
His loving-kindness O how strong!
4 When trouble like a gloomy cloud,
Has gather'd thick, and thunder'd loud,
He near my soul has always stood,
His loving-kindness O how good!
5 Often I feel my sinful heart,
Prone from my Jesus to depart;
But tho' I have him oft forgot,
His loving-kindness changes not.
6 Soon shall I pass the gloomy vale,
Soon all my mortal powers must fail;
Oh! may my last expiring breath,
His loving-kindness sing in death.
7 Then let me mount and soar away,
To the bright worlds of endless day,
And sing with rapture and surprise,
His loving-kindness in the skies. Topics: God; Loving-kindness of God

Hymn 28
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 14 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 63:1-3 First Line: What mighty man, or mighty God Lyrics:
What mighty man, or mighty God,
Comes travelling in state,
Along the Idumean road,
Away from Bozrah's gate?
The glory of his robes proclaim
'Tis some victorious king:
"'Tis I, the Just, th' Almighty One,
That your salvation bring."
"Why, mighty Lord," thy saints inquire,
"Why thine apparel's red?
And all thy vesture stained like those
Who in the wine-press tread?"
"I by myself have trod the press,
And crushed my foes alone;
My wrath has struck the rebels dead,
My fury stamped them down.
"'Tis Edom's blood that dyes my robes
With joyful scarlet stains;
The triumph that my raiment wears
Sprung from their bleeding veins.
"Thus shall the nations be destroyed
That dare insult my saints;
I have an arm t' avenge their wrongs,
An ear for their complaints."

"I lift my banner," saith the Lord,
"Where Antichrist has stood;
The city of my gospel foes
Shall be a field of blood.
"My heart has studied just revenge,
And now the day appears;
The day of my redeemed is come
To wipe away their tears.
"Quite weary is my patience grown,
And bids my fury go;
Swift as the lightning it shall move,
And be as fatal too.
"I call for helpers, but in vain;
Then has my gospel none?
Well, mine own arm has might enough
To crush my foes alone.
"Slaughter and my devouring sword
Shall walk the streets around,
Babel shall reel beneath my stroke,
And stagger to the ground."
Thy honors, O victorious King!
Thine own right hand shall raise,
While we thy awful vengeance sing,
And our deliv'rer praise.

And guide into thy perfect peace,
And bring me to the promised land. Topics: The Christian System Repentance and Faith; Deprecating the Withdrawal of the Spirit

See how great a flame aspires
Christ, above all glory seated
Author: J. R. Woodford, 1820-1885 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 95 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 63:1 Lyrics: 1 Christ, above all glory seated,
King triumphant, strong to save,
dying, thou hast death defeated;
buried, thou hast spoiled the grave.
2 Thou art gone, where now is given
what no mortal might could gain,
on the eternal throne of Heaven,
in thy Father’s power to reign.
*3 There thy kingdoms all adore thee,
heaven above and earth below;
while the depths of hell before thee
trembling and defeated bow.
4 We, O Lord, with hearts adoring,
follow thee above the sky;
hear our prayers thy grace imploring,
lift our souls to thee on high.
5 So when thou again in glory
on the clouds of heaven shalt shine
we thy flock may stand before thee,
owned for evermore as thine.
6 Hail! All hail! In thee confiding,
Jesus, thee shall all adore,
in thy Father’s might abiding
with one Spirit evermore. Topics: Ascension; Easter VII Year A; Christ the King Year B Used With Tune: WYCHBOLD Text Sources: Latin, 5th century

A preparatory thought for the Lord's Supper
Author: Dr. Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 31 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 63:1-3 First Line: What heavenly Man, or lovely God Lyrics: 1 What heavenly man, or lovely God,
Comes marching downward from the skies,
Array'd in garments roll'd in blood,
With joy and pity in his eyes?
2 The Lord! the Savior! yes, 'tis he,
I know him by the smiles he wears;
Dear glorious Man that dy'd for me,
Drench'd deep in agonies and tears.
3 Lo, he reveals his shining breast,
I own those wounds and I adore,
Lo, he prepares a royal feast,
Sweet fruit of the sharp pangs he bore.
4 Whence flow these favors so divine!
Lord! why so lavish of thy blood?
Why for such earthly souls as mine!
This heavenly wine, this sacred food?
5 'Twas his own love that made him bleed,
That nail'd him to the cursed tree;
'Twas his own love this table spread
For such unworthy guests as we.
6 Then let us taste the Savior's love;
Come, faith, and feed upon the Lord;
With glad consent our lips shall move,
And sweet hosannahs crown the board.
