I Heard a Sound of Voices

Author: Godfrey Thring Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2814 Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. I heard a sound of voices, Around the great white throne, With harpers harping on their harps To Him that sat thereon: Salvation, glory, honor! I heard the song arise, As through the courts of Heaven it rolled In wondrous harmonies. 2. From every clime and kindred, And nations from afar, As serried ranks returning home In triumph from a war, I heard the saints upraising, The myriad hosts among, In praise of Him who died and lives, Their one glad triumph song. 3. I saw the holy city, The New Jerusalem, Come down from Heav’n, a bride adorned With jeweled diadem; The flood of crystal waters Flowed down the golden street; And nations brought their honors there, And laid them at her feet. 4. And there no sun was needed, Nor moon to shine by night, God’s glory did enlighten all, The Lamb Himself the Light; And there His servants serve Him, And, life’s long battle o’er, Enthroned with Him, their Savior King, They reign forevermore. 5. O great and glorious vision, The Lamb upon His throne! O wondrous sight for man to see! The Savior with His own; To drink the living waters And stand upon the shore, Where neither sorrow, sin nor death Shall enter ever more. 6. O Lamb of God who reignest, Thou bright and morning Star! Whose glory lightens that new earth Which now we see from far; O worthy Judge eternal, When Thou dost bid us come, Then open wide the gates of pearl And call Thy servants home.

O'er Continent and Ocean

Author: John H. Holmes Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4783 Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. O’er continent and ocean, From city, field, and wood, Still speak, O Lord, Thy messengers Of peace and brotherhood. In Athens and Benares, In Rome and Galilee, They fronted kings and conquerors, And taught mankind of Thee. 2. We hear, O Lord, these voices, And hail them as Thine own, They speak as speak the winds and tides On planets far and lone. One God, the life of ages, One rule, His will above, One realm our wide humanity, One law, the law of love. 3. The tribes and nations falter In rivalries of fear; The fires of hate to ashes turn, To dust the sword and spear. Thy Word alone remaineth; That word we speak again; O’er sea and shore and continent, To all the sons of men. Languages: English Tune Title: PATMOS (Storer)
