Give to the Lord, Ye Sons of Fame

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 105 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Give to the Lord, ye sons of fame, Give to the Lord renown and power, Ascribe due honors to His name, And His eternal might adore. 2. The Lord proclaims His power aloud Over the ocean and the land; His voice divides the watery cloud, And lightnings blaze at His command. 3. He speaks, and tempest, hail and wind, Lay the wide forest bare around: The fearful hart and frightened hind Leap at the terror of the sound. 4. To Lebanon He turns His voice, And lo, the stately cedars break; The mountains tremble at the noise, The valleys roar, the deserts quake. 5. The Lord sits sovereign on the flood, The Thund’rer reigns for ever king; But makes His Church His blest abode, Where we His awful glories sing. 6. In gentler language there, the Lord, The counsels of His grace imparts; Amidst the raging storm, His Word Speaks peace and courage to our hearts.

Again the Lord's Own Day Is Here

Author: Thomas à Kempis, 1379-1471; John M. Neale Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Again the Lord’s own day is here, The day to Christian people dear, As, week by week, it bids them tell How Jesus rose from death and hell. 2. For by His flock their Lord declared His resurrection should be shared; And we who trust in Him to save With Him are risen from the grave. 3. We, one and all, of Him possessed, Are with exceeding treasures blessed, For all He did, and all He bare, He gives us as our own to share. 4. Eternal glory, rest on high, A blessèd immortality, True peace and gladness, and a throne, Are all His gifts, and all our own. 5. And therefore unto Thee we sing, O Lord of peace, eternal King; Thy love we praise, Thy name adore, Both on this day and evermore. Used With Tune: CHURCH TRIUMPHANT

Now let our faith with joy survey

Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now let our faith with joy survey The glories of the latter day; Its dawn already seems begun, Sure earnest of the rising sun. 2 The friends of truth assembled stand, A chosen, consecrated band, The emblem of the cross display, And cry aloud, "Behold the way!" 3 Behold the way to Zion’s hill, Where Israel’s God delights to dwell; He fixes there His lofty throne, And calls the sacred place His own. 4 "Behold the way!" ye heralds! cry; Spare not, but lift your voices high; Convey the sound from shore to shore, And bid the captive sigh no more. 5 Auspicious dawn! thy rising ray With joy we view, and hail the day; Thou Sun! arise, supremely bright, And fill the world with purest light.

Soon may the last glad song arise

Author: Mrs. Vokes Appears in 255 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Soon may the last glad song arise Through all the millions of the skies; That song of triumph which records That all the earth is now the Lord's. 2 Let thrones and powers and kingdoms be Obedient, mighty God, to Thee; And over land and streams and main Wave Thou the sceptre of Thy reign. 3 O that the anthem now might swell, And host to host the triumph tell, That not one rebel heart remains; But over all the Saviour reigns!

Come, Nations, Come

Author: Godfrey Thring Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Come, nations, come, and hail from far Lyrics: 1 Come, nations, come, and hail from far, Come hail the long-expected Star, For He who sprung from Jesse’s stem, This day was born in Bethlehem. 2 Come, wandering pilgrims, join the throng, And listen to the angel song, Hark! as they chant the sweet refrain, Of Peace on earth, good will toward men. 3 No voice more dear, no song more bright, Than that the angels sang the night That ushered in the joyous morn On which the Prince of Peace was born. 4 Haste with the shepherds, haste away, Haste see the place where Jesus lay, And with the angels hovering there, Sing praises in the midnight air. 5 Let Heav’n and earth in concert sing, In carols to the newborn King, Re-echoing still the sweet refrain, "Peace—peace on earth, good will toward men."
