Meter: 11.11.11.11 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: The evening is glorious, oh, hear the glad song Scripture: Zechariah 14:7 Refrain First Line: The evening is glorious, hallelujah to God! Lyrics: 1 The evening is glorious, oh, hear the glad song Of saints all victorious o’er sin and the wrong! They’ve risen in triumph to reign in this life, Above sect confusion, all darkness and strife. Refrain: The evening is glorious, hallelujah to God! We’re sanctified wholly through faith in the blood; The true light now shineth, the darkness is past; Our sorrow and sighing is ended at last. 2 Though we have been scattered by sects and by creeds, Now home to Mount Zion our good Shepherd leads; The light was not clear in the dark, cloudy day, But pure evening light now reveals the true way. [Refrain] 3 The songs of the captives who have returned home— O’er Babel’s dark mountains no longer to roam— Are telling of freedom in Zion’s fair height; Oh, glory to Jesus, the evening is light! [Refrain] 4 The glory of heaven now streams from above On God’s holy remnant made perfect in love; They’re free in the Spirit, by Him they are led, And give their allegiance to Jesus, their Head. [Refrain] 5 The evening is glorious, break forth into song, Let melody carry the message along Of perfect salvation in Jesus alone, Who is our salvation and chief Corner Stone.

How Long?

Author: Sarah Doudney Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: The weary hours like shadows come and go Scripture: Zechariah 14:7 Lyrics: 1 The weary hours like shadows come and go, As still I strive, by earnest faith and pray’r, To do each day the duties that I know, And bear the cross my Saviour bids me bear. 2 But are there many weary miles to tread Before the promised home appears in sight? And are there sad and bitter tears to shed Ere we shall meet in realms of endless light? 3 Some little joy I have in doing still The humble work He bids me do for Him; A tender gladness when ‘tis mine to fill Again some empty chalice to the brim. 4 And thus the days are slowly passing here, With distant gleams of hope and glory blest; But is the hallowed moment drawing near When we shall meet again in endless rest? 5 Ah, yes, when that great light which men call Death Strikes thro’ the gloom and stills at last the strife, Then come a hush, a sigh, a fleeting breath, And we shall meet again in endless life.
