Methinks I hear the trumpet sound
Methinks I See a Heavenly Light
Author: William Billings, 1746-1800 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Methinks I see a heavenly light,
An angel on the wing;
Methinks I hear an angel voice
A heavenly message bring,
A heavenly message bring.
Let all your fears be banished hence,
Glad tidings I proclaim;
For there's a saviour born today,
And Jesus is His name,
And Jesus is His name.
2. Lay down your crooks, and quit your flocks
To Bethlehem repair;
And let your wandering steps be squared
By yonder shining star,
By yonder shining star.
The royal guest you there shall find
Is not of common birth,
But second in the great I AM:
The God of heaven and earth,
The God of heaven and earth.
3. Then suddenly a heavenly host
Around the shepherds throng,
Exulting in the three-fold God
And thus address their song,
And thus address their song:
To God the Father, Christ the Son,
And Holy Ghost adored;
The first and last, the last and first,
Eternal praise afford,
Eternal praise afford. Used With Tune: SHILOH
Methinks I See a Heavenly Light
Methinks I Stand Upon The Rock
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Methinks I stand upon the rock
Where Balaam stood, and wondering look
Upon the scene below:
The tents of Jacob goodly seem,
The people happy I esteem,
Whom God has favored so.
2 The sons of Israel stand alone,
Jehovah claims them for His own,
His cause and theirs the same:
He saved them from the tyrant’s hand,
Allots to them a pleasant land,
And calls them by His name.
3 Their toils have almost reached a close,
And soon in peace they shall repose
Within the promised land:
E’en now its rising hills are seen,
Enriched with everlasting green,
Where Israel soon shall stand.
4 O Israel, who is like to thee?
A people saved, and called to be
Peculiar to the Lord!
Thy shield! He guards thee from the foe;
Thy sword! He fights thy battles, too;
Himself thy great reward!
5 Fear not, though many should oppose,
For God is stronger than thy foes,
And makes thy cause His own:
The promised land before thee lies,
Go up, and take the glorious prize
Reserved for thee alone.
6 In glory there the King appears;
He wipes away His people’s tears,
And makes their sorrows cease:
From toil and strife they there repose,
And dwell secure from all their foes,
In everlasting peace.
7 Fair emblem of a better rest,
Of which believers are possessed,
Beyond material space!
Methinks I see the distant shore,
Where sin and sorrow are no more;
And long to reach the place.
8 Nor shall I always absent be
From Him my soul desires to see,
Within the realms of light;
Ere long my Lord will rend the veil,
And not a cloud shall then conceal
His glory from my sight.
9 Sweet hope! it makes the coward brave;
It makes a freeman of the slave,
And bids the sluggard rise;
It lifts a worm of earth on high,
It gives him wings, and makes him fly
To worlds beyond the skies.
