Vision in Retrospect

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,331 hymnals Scripture: Deuteronomy 32:49 First Line: On Jordan's stormy banks I stand Lyrics: 1 On Jordan's stormy banks I stand, And cast a wishful eye To Canaan's fair and happy land, Where my possessions lie. 2 O the transporting rapt'rous scene, That rises to my sight! Sweet fields array'd in living green, And rivers of delight! 3 There gen'rous fruits that never fail, On trees immortal grow; There rocks and hills, and brooks and vales, With milk and honey flow. 4 All o'er those wide extended plains Shines one eternal day; There God the Son forever reigns, And scatters night away. 5 No chilling winds, nor pois'nous breath Can reach that healthful shore; Sickness and sorrow, pain and death, Are felt and fear'd no more. 6 When shall I reach that happy place, I'll be forever blest? When shall I see my Father's face, And in his bosom rest? 7 Fill'd with delight my raptur'd soul Would here no longer stay; Tho' Jordan's waves around me roll, Fearless I'd launch away.

Victory and Triumph over temporal Enemies

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 37 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 18 First Line: We love Thee, Lord, and we adore Lyrics: 1 We love thee, Lord, and we adore, Now is thine arm reveal'd; Thou art our strength, our heav'nly tow'r, Our bulwark and our shield. 2 We fly to our eternal Rock, And find a sure defence; His holy name our lips invoke, And draw salvation thence. 3 When God our leader shines in arms, What mortal heart can bear The thunder of his loud alarms? The light'ning of his spear? 4 He rides upon the winged wind, And angels in array In millions wait to know his mind, And swift as flames obey. 5 He speaks, and at his fierce rebuke Whole armies are dismay'd; His voice, his frown, his angry look Strikes all their courage dead. 6 He forms our gen'rals for the field, With all their dreadful skill; Gives them his awful sword to wield, And makes their hearts of steel. 7 Oft has the Lord whole nations blest For his own church's sake; The pow'rs that give his people rest, Shall of his care partake.

The joyful saints thy praise shall sing, And Isr'el weep no more.
