Author: Mary A. Lathbury, 1841-1913 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #221 First Line: Arise, all souls, arise! The watch is past Lyrics: 1. Arise, all souls, arise! The watch is past; A glory breaks above the cloud at last. There comes a rushing mighty wind again! The breath of God is still the life of men; The day ascending fills the waiting skies, All souls, arise! 2. It comes the breath of God through all the skies! To live, to breathe with Him, all souls, arise! Open the windows toward the shining East; Call in the guests, and spread a wider feast, The Lord pours forth as sacramental wine His breath divine! 3. It comes a larger life, a deeper breath; Arise, all souls, arise, and conquer death! Spread forth the feast, the dew and manna fall And angels whisper, Drink ye of it all; Drink of His truth, and feed upon His love, With saints above! 4. Arise, all souls, arise, to meet your Guest! His light flames from the East unto the West. The Lord of earth and Heaven is at the door, He comes to break His bread to all His poor; Arise and serve with Him, His moment flies; All souls arise!

Mary A. Lathbury

1841 - 1913 Person Name: Mary A. Lathbury, 1841-1913 Author of "Arise, All Souls, Arise" in The Cyber Hymnal Lathbury, Mary Ann, was born in Manchester, Ontario County, New York, Aug. 10, 1841. Miss Lathbury writes somewhat extensively for the American religious periodical press, and is well and favourably known (see the Century Magazine, Jan., 1885, p. 342). Of her hymns which have come into common use we have:— 1. Break Thou the bread of life. Communion with God. A "Study Song" for the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle, written in the summer of 1880. It is in Horder's (Eng.) Congregational Hymns, 1884. 2. Day is dying in the west. Evening. "Written at the request of the Rev. John H. Vincent, D.D., in the summer of 1880. It was a "Vesper Song," and has been frequently used in the responsive services of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle." It is in the Laudes Domini, N. Y., 1884. For these details we are indebted to S. W. Duffield's English Hymns, &c, N. Y., 1886. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) ================== Lathbury, Mary A., p. 640, i. Another hymn by this writer is, "Lift up, lift up thy voice with singing." [Praise to Christ), in Sankey's Sacred Songs & Solos, 1878. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
