Author: Mrs. A. R. Cousin, 1824-1906 Appears in 329 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The sands of time are sinking; The dawn of heaven breaks; The summer morn I've sighed for, The fair sweet morn awakes. Dark, dark hath been the midnight But dayspring is at hand, And glory glory dwelleth In Immanuel's land. 2 O Christ! He is the fountain, The deep sweet well of love! The streams on earth I've tasted, More deep I'll drink above: There to an ocean fulness His mercy doth expand, And glory glory dwelleth In Immanuel's land. 3 With mercy and with judgment My web of time He wove, And aye the dews of sorrow Were lustred by His love; I'll bless the hand that guided, I'll bless the heart that planned, When throned where glory dwelleth In Immanuel's land. 4 I've wrestled on towards heaven, 'Gainst storm and wind and tide; Now, like a weary traveller That leaneth on his guide, Amid the shades of evening, While sinks life's lingering sand, I hail the glory dawning In Immanuel's land.

Come Unto me, Ye Weary

Author: William C. Dix Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 260 hymnals First Line: "Come unto Me, ye weary Lyrics: 1. "Come unto Me, ye weary, And I will give you rest." O blessed voice of Jesus, Which comes to hearts oppressed! It tells of benediction, Of pardon, grace, and peace, Of joy that hath no ending, Of love which cannot cease. 2. "Come unto Me, ye wand'rers, And I will give you light." O loving voice of Jesus, Which comes to cheer the night! Our hearts were filled with sadness, And we had lost our way; But He has brought us gladness, And songs at break of day. 3. "Come unto Me, ye fainting, And I will give you life." O peaceful voice of Jesus, Which comes to end our strife! The foe is stern and eager, The fight is fierce and long; But Thou hast made us mighty, And stronger than the strong. 4. "And whosoever cometh, I will not cast him out." O patient voice of Jesus, Which drives away our doubt, Which calls us--very sinners, Unworthy though we be Of love so free and boundless-- To come, dear Lord, to Thee.

How Blest Are They Whose Trespass

Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How blest are they whose trespass has freely been forgiven, whose sins are wholly covered before the sight of heaven. Blest they to whom the LORD God does not impute their sin, who have a guileless spirit, whose heart is true within. 2 While I kept guilty silence, my strength was spent with grief: your hand was heavy on me; my soul found no relief. But when I owned my trespass and did not hide my sin, then you forgave my guilt, LORD, restored my life within. 3 So let the godly seek you in times when you are near; no whelming floods shall reach them or cause their hearts to fear. O LORD, you are my refuge, you are my hiding place, and you surround me always with songs of saving grace. 4 "I graciously will teach you the way that you should go, and, with my eye upon you, help you my counsel know. Then do not be unruly or slow to understand; be not perverse, but willing to heed my wise command." 5 The sorrows of the wicked increase from year to year, but those who trust the LORD God know love instead of fear. Then in the LORD be joyful, in song lift up your voice; be glad in God, you righteous: rejoice, O saints, rejoice!
