Ten Thousand Times Ten Thousand

Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #394 (1995) Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Scripture: Isaiah 25:6-9 Lyrics: 1 Ten thousand times ten thousand in sparkling raiment bright, the armies of the ransomed saints throng up the steeps of light! 'Tis finished, all is finished, their fight with death and sin. Fling open wide the golden gates and let the victors in! 2 What rush of halleluias fills all the earth and sky! What ringing of a thousand harps bespeaks the triumph nigh! O day, for which creation and all its tribes were made! O joy, for all its former woes a thousand fold repaid! 3 O then what raptured greetings on Canaan's happy shore; what knitting severed friendships up, where partings are no more! Then eyes with joy shall sparkle that brimmed with tears of late, no orphans left without a home, nor mourners desolate. 4 Bring near your great salvation, O Lamb for sinners slain; fill up the roll of your elect, then take your pow'r and reign! Appear, Desire of nations, your exiles long for home; show in the heav'n your promised sign; then, Prince and Savior, come.

Upward I lift mine eyes

Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #132 (1873) Scripture: Isaiah 25:4 Lyrics: 1 Upward I lift mine eyes, From God is all mine aid:-- The God who built the skies, And earth's foundations laid. God is the tower to which I fly: His grace is nigh in every hour. 2 My feet shall never slide Or fall in fatal snares; While God, my guard and guide, Defends me from my fears. Those wakeful eyes that never sleep, His children keep when dangers rise. 3 No burning heats by day, Nor blasts of evening air, Shall take my health away, If God be with me there. Thou art my sun, and thou my shade, To guard my head by night or noon. Topics: Attributes of God Providence; God our Pleasure
