On Jordan's Stormy Banks I Stand

Author: Samuel Stennett Appears in 1,325 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand, And cast a wishful eye To Canaan’s fair and happy land, To Canaan’s fair and happy land, Where my possessions lie. 2 O the transporting, rapturous scene, That rises to my sight. Sweet fields array’d in living green, Sweet fields array’d in living green, And rivers of delight. 3 All o’er those wide extended plains Shines one eternal day; There God, the Son, forever reigns, There God, the Son, forever reigns, And scatters night away. 4 No chilling winds, nor poisonous breath Can reach that healthful shore; Sickness and sorrow, pain and death, Sickness and sorrow, pain and death, Are felt and feared no more. 5 When shall I reach that happy place, And be forever blest? When shall I see my Father’s face, When shall I see my Father’s face, And in His bosom rest? Topics: Heaven Used With Tune: TAPPAN

There is an hour of peaceful rest

Author: William Bingham Tappan Appears in 565 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 There is an hour of peaceful rest, To mourning wand’rers giv'n: There is a joy for souls distressed, A balm for ev'ry wounded breast, ’Tis found above in heav'n. 2 There is a soft, a downy bed, 'Tis fair as breath of even; A couch for weary mortals spread, Where they may rest the aching head, And find repose in heaven. 3 There is a home for weary souls, By sin and sorrow driven; When tossed on life’s tempestuous shoals, Where storms arise and ocean rolls, And all is drear but heaven. 4 There, faith lifts up her cheerful eye, To brighter prospects given; And views the tempest passing by, The ev'ning shadows quickly fly, And all serene in heaven. 5 There fragrant flow'rs immortal bloom, And joys supreme are given; There, joys divine disperse the gloom: Beyond the confines of the tomb Appears the dawn of heaven.

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 209 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 There is a house not made with hands, Eternal and on high; And here my spirit waiting stands, And here my spirit waiting stands, Till God shall bid it fly. 2 Shortly this prison of my clay Must be dissolved and fall, Then, O my soul! with joy obey Then, O my soul! with joy obey Thy Heavenly Father's call. 3 'Tis He, by His almighty grace, That forms thee fit for heaven, And as an earnest of the place, And as an earnest of the place, Has His own Spirit given. 4 We walk by faith of joys to come, Faith lives upon His word; But while the body is our home, But while the body is our home, We're absent from the Lord. Amen. Topics: Death Anticipated; Fellowship with God Used With Tune: TAPPAN
