Lonely and weary, by sorrow oppressed

Author: Anon. Appears in 24 hymnals Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Lonely and weary, by sorrow oppressed, Onward we hasten with longings for rest, Bidding adieu to the world with its pride, Longing to stand by Immanuel's side Though we are pilgrims, before us now rise Visions of glory rejoicing our eyes. Bright are the crowns that we hope soon to wear, Blessed the rest; O we long to be there. 2 There is the city in splendor sublime; O, how its turrets and battlements shine! Pearls are its portals, surpassingly bright, Jasper its walls, and the Lamb is its light. Pathways of gold that blest city adorn, Glittering with glory far brighter than morn; Angels stand beck'ning us onward to share Glory unfading; we long to be there. 3 Rivers are gliding 'mid unfading trees, Songs of the ransomed are borne on the breeze; Glory-gilt mountains resplendent are seen, Valleys and hills clad in Eden-like green; There shall be glory of God ever be, Filling the earth as the waves fill the sea; There shall the ransomed, immortal and fair, Evermore dwell; O, we long to be there. Used With Tune: TRIUMPH

Cheer up, ye soldiers of the cross

Author: R. F. Cottrell Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Cheer up, ye soldiers of the cross; The moment soon will come When you shall lay your armor off, And reach your blissful home. The pearly gates will wide unfold Before our conquering King, And entering hosts, with harps of gold, Triumphantly shall sing. 2 What though the warfare be severe, And enemies be strong; And painful watchings, dark and drear, The tedious night prolong; Our Captain passed this way before, And felt each cruel sting: Courage! the strife will soon be o'er, And then with joy we'll sing. 3 Many a soldier in this strife, Has nobly bled and died, Counting it joy to give his life For Him once crucified. And when our Captain comes again, Those from the dead he'll bring; And they with us, and we with them, Triumphantly will sing. 4 O, 'twill be joy, but to behold That glad immortal throng Enter and walk the streets of gold, And sing the victor's song! To see that host and hear that song, Must joy ecstatic bring; But those who will may join that throng, With them you too may sing. Used With Tune: COURAGE

I Jomfruer, I kloge

Author: Laur. Laurenti; Brorson Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: The Christian Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 I Jomfruer, I kloge, O tænder Lamper, ser, Hvor det i Verdens Kroge Nu mørknes mer og mer! Vor Brudgom op er standen Og kommer med en Fart, Op, vaager med hinanden, Nu erdet Midnat snart! 2 Hver gjøre Lampen færdig, At I kan rede staa Og vorde agtet værdig, Med Brudgommen at gaa; Thi Zions Vægtre raabe: Vor Brudgom nu er nær, O, møder ham tilhobe I Troens Frydefærd! 3 I Jomfruer, saa mange, Som ere ved Forstand, O kommer, ud at gange Imod vor Frelsermand! Ser Himlens aabne Porte Og Brylluppet bered! Han ikke langt er borte, Som hedder Zions Fred! 4 Ser op, gaar ham imøde, Han er, nu er han her! Ser Træets Topper gløde, Saa er vor sommer nær! Ser, hvor saa klart frembryder Den røde Aftensky, Som os den Dag betyder, Naar al vor Nat maa fly! 5 Bort derfor, Søvnens Taage! Hvo vaager, han er vis. Enhver, som ei vil vaage, Skal føle Vredens Ris, Fordærvelse og Plage; Thi alle Vredens kar For evig da skal smage Den Helvedpine svar. 6 Men møder ham, I Fromme, Med Fryd og Glædes Lyd! Vor Sorrigs Tid er omme, Til Klagen Afsked byd! O, ser dog Frydestunden, Som bærer Kronen from, Nu er den snart oprunden, Nu hentes Bruden hjem! 7 I, som med Jesus lider I denne Grædedal, Skal efter Sorgens Tider Faa Fryd i Himlens Sal, Med ham I skal regjere,– Hvo kan vel det forstaa?– Og evig triumfere Med Ærens Krone paa. 8 O Jesus, lad det komme Dog snart dertil engang, At alle dine Fromme Maa mode dig med Sang! Gjør, Jesus, snart en Ende Paa dines haarde Strid, Og lad min Lampe brænde Til min Forløsningstid!
