When the King Comes In

Author: J. E. Landor Appears in 81 hymnals Topics: Invitation and Repentance Decision Day; Invitation and Repentance The Judgment First Line: Called to the feast by the King are we Refrain First Line: When the King comes in, brother Lyrics: 1 Called to the feast by the King are we, Sitting, perhaps, where his people be; How will it fare, friend, with thee and me When the King comes in? Refrain: When the King comes in, brother, When the King comes in! How will it fare with thee and me When the King comes in? 2 Crowns on the head where the thorns have been, Glorified he who once died for men; Splendid the vision before us then, When the King comes in. [Refrain] 3 Like lightning's flash will that instant show Things hidden long from both friend and foe; Just what we are will each neighbor know, When the King comes in. [Refrain] 4 Joyful his eye shall on each one rest Who is in white wedding garments dress'd; Ah! well for us if we stand the test, When the King comes in. [Refrain] 5 Endless the sad separation then, Bitter the cry of deluded men, Awful that moment of anguish when Christ the King comes in. [Refrain] 5 Lord, grant us all, we implore thee, grace, So to await thee, each in his place, That we may fear not to see thy face When thou comest in. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Called to the feast by the King are we]

From the pow'r of evil hide us, In the narrow pathway guide us, Nor thy smile be e'er denied us The livelong day. 3 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping; And, when we die, May we, in thy mighty keeping, All peaceful lie: When the last dread trump shall wake us, Do not thou, O God, forsake us, But to reign in glory take us With thee on high.

Sinner, prepare to meet God!

Appears in 181 hymnals Topics: Day of Judgment First Line: Sinner, art thou still secure? Lyrics: 1 Sinner, art thou still secure? Wilt thou still refuse to pray? Can thy heart or hands endure In the Lord's avenging day! 2 See, his mighty arm is bar'd! Awful terrors clothe his brow! For his judgment stand prepar'd, Thou must either break or bow. 3 At his presence nature shakes, Earth affrighted hastes to flee; Solid mountains melt like wax, What will then become of thee? 4 Who his advent may abide? You that glory in your shame, Will you find a place to hide When the world is wrapped in flame? 5 Then the rich, the great, the wise, Trembling, guilty, self-condemn'd; Must behold the wrathful eyes Of the Judge they once blasphem'd. 6 Where are now their haughty looks, Oh, their horror and despair! When they see the open'd books, And their dreadful sentence hear! 7 Lord, prepare us by thy grace! Soon we must resign our breath; And our souls be call'd to pass Through the iron gate of death. 8 Let us now our day improve, Listen to the gospel voice; Seek the things that are above; Scorn the world's pretended joys.

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Day of Judgment First Line: See how brown autumn spreads the field Lyrics: 1 See how brown autumn spreads the field; Mark how the whit'ning hills are turn'd; Behold them to the reapers yield, The wheat is sav'd, the tares are burn'd. 2 Thus the great Judge with glory crown'd, Descends to reap the ripen'd earth; Angelic guards attend him down, The same who sang his humble birth. 3 In sounds of glory, hear him speak; "Go search around the flaming world, Haste, call my saints, to rise and take The seats from which their foes were hurl'd. 4 "Go burn the chaff in endless fire, In flames unquench'd consume each tare; Sinners must feel my holy ire, And sink in guilt to deep despair." 5 Thus ends the harvest of the earth, Angels obey the awful voice: They save the wheat and burn the chaff, All heav'n approves the sov'reign choice.
