Your harps, ye trembling saints
Happiness approaching!
Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 226 hymnals Scripture: Romans 13:11 First Line: Awake, ye saints, and raise your eyes Lyrics: 1 Awake, ye saints, and raise your eyes
And raise your voices high;
Awake, and praise that sovereign love,
That shews salvation nigh.
2 On all the wings of time it flies,
Each moment brings it near:
Then welcome each declining day!
And each revolving year!
3 Not many years their round shall run,
Nor many mornings rise,
Ere all its glories stand reveal'd
To our admiring eyes.
4 Ye wheels of nature, speed your course;
Ye mortal powers, decay;
Fast as ye bring the night of death,
Ye bring eternal day. Topics: Heaven; Worship of Heaven, the everlasting song; Salvation approaching

God is Working His Purpose Out
Author: Arthur Campbell Ainger Meter: Irregular Appears in 93 hymnals Scripture: Romans 13:11 Lyrics: 1 God is working his purpose out
as year succeeds to year:
God is working his purpose out,
and the time is drawing near;
nearer and nearer draws the time,
the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
2 From utmost east to utmost west,
where human feet have trod,
by the mouth of many messengers
goes forth the voice of God:
"Give ear to me, you continents,
ye isles, give ear to me,"
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
3 March we forth in the strength of God,
with the banner of Christ unfurled,
that the light of the glorious gospel of truth
may shine throughout the world:
fight we the fight with sorrow and sin
to set their captives free,
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
4 All we can do is nothing worth
unless God blesses the deed;
vainly we hope for the harvest-tide
till God gives life to the seed;
yet nearer and nearer draws the time,
the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea. Topics: God His Sovereignty Used With Tune: PURPOSE

O'er earth's green fields and ocean's wave-beat shore:
How sweet the truth those blessed strains are telling,
Of that new life when sin shall be no more.
Refrain:
Angels of Jesus, angels of light,
Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night!
2 Onward we go, for still we hear them singing,
"Come, weary souls, for Jesus bids you come";
And through the dark, its echoes sweetly ringing,
The music of the gospel leads us home. [Refrain]
3 Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing,
The voice of Jesus sounds o'er land and sea;
And laden souls, by thousands meekly stealing,
Kind Shepherd, turn their weary steps to Thee. [Refrain]
4 Rest comes at length: though life be long and dreary,
The day must dawn, and darksome night be past;
Faith's journeys end in welcome to the weary,
And heaven, the heart's true home, will come at last. [Refrain]
5 Angels, sing on, your faithful watches keeping;
Sing us sweet fragments of the songs above,
Till morning's joy shall end the night of weeping,
And life's long shadows break in cloudless love. [Refrain]
Amen. Topics: Funeral Services; Life Everlasting, The; Life in Christ Life Everlasting, The Used With Tune: PILGRIMS (Smart)

true source of life, our lives sustain;
from the best bliss that earth imparts,
we turn unfilled to you again.

you rescue those who on you call:
to those yet seeking, you are good;
to those who find you, all in all.

and long to feast upon you still.
We drink from you, the fountain-head,
our thirsty souls from you we fill.
4 Our restless spirits long for you,
however may our lot be cast,
glad when your gracious smile we view,
blessed when our faith can hold you fast.
5 Jesus, forever with us stay:
make all our moments calm and bright;
chase the dark night of sin away;
shed through the world your holy light. Topics: Eucharist; Eucharist; Yearning; Bread Used With Tune: MARYTON Text Sources: Latin, 12th cent.

Savior, Blessed Savior
Author: Godfrey Thring Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 329 hymnals Scripture: Romans 13:11 Lyrics: 1 Savior, blessed Savior, listen while we sing;
hearts and voices raising praises to our King:
all we have we offer, all we hope to be,
body, soul, and spirit, all we yield to thee.
2 Nearer, ever nearer, Christ we draw to thee,
deep in adoration, bending low the knee;
thou for our redemption cam'st on earth to die;
thou, that we might follow, hast gone up on high.
3 Great and ever greater, are thy mercies here;
true and everlasting are the glories there,
where no pain nor sorrow, fear nor care, is known,
where the angel legions circle round thy throne.
4 Higher then, and higher, bear the ransomed soul,
earthly toils forgotten - Savior, to its goal;
where, in joys unthought of, saints with angels sing,
never weary, raising praises to their King.
