Take Higher Ground

One Thousand-Million Souls
Author: L. H. Wilson Hymnal: CYBER #19381 Meter: 6.6.6.6 D First Line: One thousand-million souls! Lyrics: 1 One thousand-million souls!
In deep and dark despair,
They lie in speechless woe,
In wan and weary care.
No God, no Christ, no hope
In rayless gloom they grope,
And dying, without hope,
And dying without hope.
2 ’Mid China’s peopled plains,
Or Greenland’s frozen snow,
Where India’s temple fanes
In glittering splendors glow—
On many an ocean isle,
’Mid nature’s sweetest smile,
One night of horror reigns,
One night of horror reigns.
3 One thousand-million souls,
As hopeless wanderers die,
No gleam of light appears
Along their darkened sky.
No Christ to them made known,
No blood which doth atone,
For sins of deepest dye,
For sins of deepest dye.
4 And must they die unsought?
Die in their voiceless grief?
Die, ’mid their woes untaught?
Die like the withered leaf?
And in their hour of need
Shall none give willing heed
Or send the craved relief,
Or send the craved relief?
5 No, no, it must not be—
Rise, sluggish Church of God,
The Savior calls to thee:
"Thro’ all the earth abroad,
Go, ere the years are flown,
And there My love make known,
Wherever man hath trod,
Wherever man hath trod." Languages: English Tune Title: BRECKENRIDGE
One Thousand-Million Souls
There Are No Tears In Heaven
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: CYBER #19382 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: What if our bark o’er life’s rough wave Lyrics: 1 What if our bark o’er life’s rough wave
By adverse winds be driv’n,
And howling tempests round us rave—
There are no tears in Heav’n.
What though affliction be our lot,
Our hearts with anguish riv’n;
Still, let it never be forgot—
There are no tears in Heav’n.
2 Our sweetest joys here banish all,
And fade like hues at ev’n;
Our brightest hopes like meteors fall—
There are no tears in Heav’n.
The mourner sad, who drowned in grief,
Hath long in sorrow striven,
Shall find, at last, a sweet relief—
There are no tears in Heav’n.
3 Thou, God, our joy and rest shall be,
And sorrow far be driv’n;
And sin and death forever flee—
There are no tears in Heav’n.
There from the blooming tree of life,
The healing fruit is giv’n;
There, there shall cease the painful strife—
There are no tears in Heav’n. Languages: English Tune Title: ESCOBEDO
