A growing kingdom

Author: Arthur C. Coxe Hymnal: Laudes Domini #487 (1888) Scripture: Daniel 12:4 First Line: Oh, where are the kings and empires now Lyrics: 1 Oh, where are kings and empires now, Of old that went and came? But, Lord, thy church is praying yet, A thousand years the same. 2 We mark her goodly battlements, And her foundations strong; We hear within the solemn voice Of her unending song. 3 For not like kingdoms of the world Thy holy church, O God! Though earthquake shocks are threatening her, And tempests are abroad;-- 4 Unshaken as eternal hills, Immovable she stands, A mountain that shall fill the earth, A house not made by hands.

Prepare to meet God

Author: William B. Collyer Hymnal: Laudes Domini #580 (1888) Scripture: Daniel 12:2 First Line: Great God, what do I see and hear! Lyrics: 1 Great God, what do I see and hear! The end of things created! The Judge of man I see appear, On clouds of glory seated: The trumpet sounds; the graves restore The dead which they contained before; Prepare, my soul, to meet him. 2 The dead in Christ shall first arise, At the last trumpet's sounding-- Caught up to meet him in the skies, With joy their Lord surrounding; No gloomy fears their souls dismay, His presence sheds eternal day On those prepared to meet him. 3 But sinners, filled with guilty fears, Behold his wrath prevailing; For they shall rise, and find their tears And sighs are unavailing: The day of grace is past and gone; Trembling they stand before the throne, All unprepared to meet him. 4 Great God! what do I see and hear! The end of things created! The Judge of man I see appear, On clouds of glory seated: Beneath his cross I view the day When heaven and earth shall pass away, And thus prepared to meet him.

Psalm 119

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Laudes Domini #142 (1888) Scripture: Daniel 12:4 First Line: The Spirit breathes upon the Word Lyrics: 1 The Spirit breathes upon the word, And brings the truth to sight; Precepts and promises afford A sanctifying light. 2 A glory gilds the sacred page, Majestic, like the sun; It gives a light to every age;-- It gives, but borrows none. 3 The hand, that gave it, still supplies The gracious light and heat; Its truths upon the nations rise,-- They rise, but never set. 4 Let everlasting thanks be thine, For such a bright display, As makes a world of darkness shine With beams of heavenly day. 5 My soul rejoices to pursue The steps of him I love, Till glory breaks upon my view, In brighter worlds above.
