Your kingdom shall increase till all the world your glory see, and righteousness abound as the great deep profound, and fill the earth with purity.

Hallelujah to God! Lyrics: 1 In the morning of grace, when the Sun first arose, And the gospel divine put to flight all its foes, The nations rejoiced, but forsook it so soon, For the Sun in His strength was darkened at noon. Refrain: Light breaks at last! Hallelujah to God! Darkness is past, let us shout it aloud: From the mountains and hills let us gather the few Who will stand for the right, and dare to be true. 2 Long years have we dwelt in confusion and strife, And groped where contention and error were rife; But now we have found what we sought for so long, That the people of God unite in one throng. [Refrain] 3 Behold, now we see, by the evening’s fair light, As it gleams from Mount Zion in radiance bright, That the mist of confusion is passing away, As the darkness recedes at breaking of day. [Refrain] 4 We have found it at last, the one holy flock, ’Tis the church of the Lord, and it stands on the Rock; Spread the news far and wide, till it reaches each shore, That the Sun in His strength shall shine evermore.

A Vesper Song

Author: H. L. Gilmour Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Zechariah 14:7 First Line: When the golden sunset Lyrics: 1 When the golden sunset Gilds the western sky, And the lamps of evening Stud the dome on high; Something gently whispers, To my heart alone, “Hast thou been a blessing, As the hours have flown.” 2 Saviour in thy keeping, Gladly I resign All I have or hope for, To thee, Friend divine; With my heart bowed lowly, On thine altar laid, Leaving it for service, Sacrifice or aid. 3 Grant thy benediction, Ere my eyelids close, By thy watchful vision, Undisturbed repose; And when dawns the morning, Fresh with early dew, I’ll awake with praises, And my vows renew. Used With Tune: [When the golden sunset]
