The King Shall Come When Morning Dawns
Author: John Brownlie Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 94 hymnals Scripture: Luke 21:28 Lyrics: 1 The King shall come when morning dawns
and light triumphant breaks,
when beauty gilds the eastern hills
and life to joy awakes
2 not, as of old, a little child,
to bear and fight and die,
but crowned with glory like the sun
that lights the morning sky.
3 Oh, brighter than the rising morn
when Christ, victorious, rose
and left the lonesome place of death,
despite the rage of foes
4 oh, brighter than that glorious morn
shall dawn upon our race
the day when Christ in splendor comes
and we shall see his face.
5 The King shall come when morning dawns
and light and beauty brings.
Hail, Christ the Lord! Your people pray:
come quickly, King of kings.

Alas! what hourly dangers rise!
Author: Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 247 hymnals Scripture: Luke 21:36 Lyrics: 1 Alas! what hourly dangers rise!
What snares beset my way!
To heaven, oh, let me lift mine eyes,
And hourly watch and pray.
2 How oft my mournful thoughts complain,
And melt in flowing tears!
My weak resistance, ah, how vain!
How strong my foes and fears!
3 O gracious God! in whom I live,
My feeble efforts aid;
Help me to watch, and pray, and strive,
Though trembling and afraid.
4 Increase my faith, increase my hope,
When foes and fears prevail;
And bear my fainting spirit up,
Or soon my strength will fail.
5 Oh, keep me in thy heavenly way,
And bid the tempter flee!
And let me never, never stray
From happiness and thee. Topics: The Christian Life Trial and Patience; Dangers by the Way
Alas! what hourly dangers rise!
Lord, lead the way the Savior went
Author: W. Crosswell Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 200 hymnals Scripture: Luke 21:1-5 Lyrics: 1 Lord, lead the way the Saviour went,
By lane and cell obscure,
And let our treasures still be spent,
Like his, upon the poor.
2 Like him, through scenes of deep distress,
Who bore the world's sad weight,
We, in their gloomy loneliness,
Would see the desolate.
3 For thou hast placed us side by side
In this wide world of ill;
And that thy followers may be tried,
The poor are with us still.
4 Small are the offerings we can make;
Yet thou hast taught us, Lord,
If given for the Saviour's sake,
They lose not their reward.
Topics: Benevolence; Imitation of Christ's Kindness

A Rabbi Sat Against a Wall
Author: Daniel Charles Damon Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Luke 21:1-4 Lyrics: 1 A rabbi sat against a wall
and watched the crowd pass by,
the wealthy gave great gifts of gold,
a widow caught his eye.
2 She gave two copper coins that day,
a gift so small and slight.
A penny's worth in Palestine
was precious in her sight.
3 Our teacher called us to his side
and said her gift was small,
was greater than the lavish gifts,
because she gave her all.
4 The wealthy gave their heavy sums
from an abundant store.
The widow, in her poverty,
had given so much more. Topics: Scripture-Based Giving; Stewardship; Women Defined by Faith Used With Tune: HENSLEY
