These Are The Crowns That We Shall Wear
Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11061 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 These are the crowns that we shall wear
When all Thy saints are crowned;
These are the palms that we shall bear
On yonder holy ground.
2 Far off as yet, reserved in Heaven,
Above that veiling sky,
They sparkle, like the star of even,
To hope’s far piercing eye.
3 These are the robes unsoiled and white
Which we shall then put on,
When, foremost ’mong the sons of light,
We sit on yonder throne.
4 That city with the jeweled crest,
Like some new-lighted sun;
A blaze of burning amethyst—
Ten thousand orbs in one.
5 That is the city of the saints,
Where we so soon shall stand,
When we shall strike these desert-tents,
And quit this desert-sand.
6 These are the everlasting hills,
With summits bathed in day;
The slopes down which the living rills,
Soft lapsing, take their way.
7 Fair vision! how thy distant gleam
Brightens time’s saddest hue;
Far fairer than the fairest dream,
And yet so strangely true.
8 Fair vision! how thou liftest up
The drooping brow and eye;
With the calm joy of thy sure hope
Fixing our souls on high.
9 Thy light makes even the darkest page
In memory’s scroll grow fair;
Blanching the lines which tears and age
Had only deepened there.
10 With thee in view, the rugged slope
Becomes a level way,
Smoothed by the magic of thy hope,
And gladdened by thy ray.
11 With thee in view, how poor appear
The world’s most winning smiles;
Vain is the tempter’s subtlest snare,
And vain hell’s varied wiles.
12 Time’s glory fades; its beauty now
Has ceased to lure or blind;
Each gay enhancement here below
Has lost its power to bind.
13 Then welcome toil, and care and pain!
And welcome sorrow, too!
All toil is rest, all grief is gain,
With such a prize in view.
14 Come crown and throne, come robe and palm;
Burst forth, glad stream of peace!
Come, holy city of the Lamb!
Rise, Sun of righteousness!
15 When shall the clouds that veil thy rays
For ever be withdrawn?
Why dost thou tarry, day of days?
When shall thy gladness dawn? Languages: English Tune Title: MANOAH
These Are The Crowns That We Shall Wear
With Radiant Beams The Sun Arose
Author: Thomas Haweis Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11073 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 With radiant beams the sun arose
On Sodom’s fated towers;
In pleasure’s round, and false repose,
They spend the cheerful hours.
2 Lot’s warning voice they mocking heard,
Their hearts, elate with pride,
No joy withheld, no danger feared—
The prophet they deride.
3 In vain he pleads, "Fly, sinner fly…
Behold destruction near!"
"Empty enthusiast," they reply,
And ridicule his fear.
4 But sudden o’er the trembling ground,
The heav’ns tremendous lower;
And streams of fire and brimstone round,
In torrents downward pour.
5 They scream…they fly…no hope remains—
Blaspheme—in flames expire;
Lot, safe in Zoar a refuge gains—
"A brand plucked from the fire."
6 Sinner, behold—the warning take;
This moment hear and fear:
For if the righteous scarce escape,
O where wilt thou appear? Languages: English Tune Title: OLD MARTYRS
With Radiant Beams The Sun Arose
God Is A Spirit, Just And Wise
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11081 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 God is a Spirit, just and wise
He sees our inmost mind;
In vain to Heav’n we raise our cries,
And leave our souls behind.
2 Nothing but truth before His throne
With honor can appear;
The painted hypocrites are known
Through the disguise they wear.
3 Their lifted eyes salute the skies,
Their bended knees the ground;
But God abhors the sacrifice
Where not the heart is found.
4 Lord, search my thoughts, and try my ways,
And make my soul sincere;
Then shall I stand before Thy face,
And find acceptance there. Languages: English Tune Title: ARMENIA
God Is A Spirit, Just And Wise
How Should The Sons Of Adam's Race
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11097 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: How should the sons of Adam’s race Lyrics: 1 How should the sons of Adam’s race
Be pure before their God?
If He contend in righteousness,
We fall beneath His rod.
2 To vindicate my words and thoughts
I’ll make no more pretense;
Not one of all my thousand faults
Can bear a just defense.
3 Strong is His arm, His heart is wise;
What vain perfumers dare
Against their Maker’s hand to rise,
Or tempt th’unequal war?
4 Mountains by His almighty wrath
From their old seats are torn;
He shakes the earth, from south to north,
And all her pillars mourn.
5 He bids the sun forbear to rise;
Th’obedient sun forbears:
His hand with sackcloth spreads the skies,
And seals up all the stars.
6 He walks upon the stormy sea;
Flies on the stormy wind:
There’s none can trace His wondrous way,
Or His dark footsteps find. Languages: English Tune Title: ABIDING GRACE
How Should The Sons Of Adam's Race
He Comes! He Comes! To Judge The World
Author: Samuel Stennett Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11098 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: "He comes! He comes! to judge the world" Lyrics: 1 "He comes! He comes! to judge the world,"
Aloud th’archangel cries!
While thunders roll from pole to pole,
And lightnings cleave the skies.
2 Th’affrighted nations hear the sound,
And upward lift their eyes;
The slumbering tenants of the ground
In living armies rise.
3 Amid the shouts of numerous friends,
Of hosts divinely bright,
The Judge in solemn pomp descends,
Arrayed in robes of light.
4 His head and hairs are white as snow,
His eyes a fiery flame,
A radiant crown adorns His brow,
And Jesus is His name.
5 Writ on His thigh His name appears,
And scars His victories tell:
Lo! in His hand the Conqueror bears
The keys of death and hell.
6 So He ascends the judgment seat,
And, at His dread command,
Myriads of creatures round His feet
In solemn silence stand.
7 Princes and peasants here expect
Their last, their righteous doom;
The men who dared His grace reject,
And they who dared presume.
8 "Depart, ye sons of vice and sin,"
The injured Jesus cries!
While the long kindling wrath within
Flashes from both His eyes.
9 And now, in words divinely sweet,
With rapture in His face,
Aloud His sacred lips repeat
The sentence of His grace:
10 "Well done, my good and faithful sons,
The children of My love!
Receive the scepters, crowns and thrones
Prepared for you above." Languages: English Tune Title: THE WAITS' SONG
He Comes! He Comes! To Judge The World
And Did The Holy And The Just
Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11099 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And did the holy and the just,
The Sovereign of the skies,
Stoop down to wretchedness and dust,
That guilty worms might rise?
2 Yes, the Redeemer left His throne,
His radiant throne on high,
(Surprising mercy! love unknown!)
To suffer, bleed and die.
3 He took the dying traitor’s place,
And suffered in his stead;
For man (O miracle of grace!),
For man the Savior bled!
4 Dear Lord, what heavenly wonders dwell
In Thy atoning blood?
By this are sinners snatched from hell,
And rebels brought to God.
5 Jesus, my soul, adoring, bends
To love so full, so free;
And may I hope that love extends
Its sacred power to me?
6 What glad return can I impart,
For favors so divine?
O take my all—this worthless heart,
And make it only Thine. Languages: English Tune Title: SALZBURG
And Did The Holy And The Just
Jesu, At Whose Supreme Command
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11119 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesu, at whose supreme command
We thus approach to God,
Before us in Thy vesture stand,
Thy vesture dipped in blood.
2 Obedient to Thy gracious word
We break the hallowed bread,
Commemorate Thee, our dying Lord,
And trust on Thee to feed.
3 Now, Savior, now Thyself reveal,
And make Thy nature known,
Affix the sacramental seal,
And stamp us for Thine own.
4 The tokens of Thy dying love,
O let us all receive,
And feel the quickening Spirit move,
And sensibly believe.
5 The cup of blessing blest by Thee,
Let it Thy blood impart;
The bread Thy mystic body be,
And cheer each languid heart.
6 The grace which sure salvation brings
Let us herewith receive;
Satiate the hungry with good things,
The hidden manna give.
7 The living bread sent down from heaven
In us vouchsafe to be;
The flesh for all the world is given,
And all may live by Thee.
8 Now, Lord, on us Thy flesh bestow,
And let us drink Thy blood,
Till all our souls are filled below
With all the life of God. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AGNES
Jesu, At Whose Supreme Command
The Lord Unto My Lord Hath Said
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11121 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The Lord unto my Lord hath said,
"Sit Thou, in glory sit,
Till I Thine enemies have made
To bow beneath Thy feet."
2 Jesu, my Lord, mighty to save,
What can my hopes withstand,
When Thee my advocate I have
Enthroned at God’s right hand?
3 I fear nor earth, nor sin, nor hell,
And death hath lost his sting,
In vain a while Thy foes rebel,
Thou, Jesus, art my king.
4 Nature is subject to Thy word,
All power to Thee is given,
The uncontrolled almighty Lord
Of hell, and earth and Heaven.
5 And shall my sins Thy will oppose?
Jesu, Thy right maintain;
O let not Thine usurping foes
In me Thy servant reign.
6 Master, on Thee my soul is stayed,
Thou wilt not quit Thy claim;
Thou only hast my ransom paid,
And only Thine I am.
7 Come, then, and claim me for Thine own:
Savior, Thy right assert;
Come, gracious Lord, set up Thy throne,
And reign within my heart.
8 The day of Thy great power I feel,
And pant for liberty;
I loathe myself, deny my will,
And give up all for Thee.
9 I hate my sins, no longer mine,
For I renounce them, too;
My weakness with Thy strength I join,
Thy strength shall all subdue.
10 Our common foes, who Thee defied
And would not own Thy sway,
Envy and sloth, desire and pride,
And hate and anger slay.
11 Thy enemies destroy in mine,
Pronounce their speedy doom;
In vengeance speak, in brightness shine,
The man of sin consume.
12 So shall I bless Thy pleading sway,
And sitting at Thy feet
Thy laws with all my heart obey,
With all my soul submit.
13 So shall I do Thy will below,
As angels do above,
The virtue of Thy passion show,
The triumphs of Thy love.
14 Thy love the conquest more than gains,
To all I shall proclaim;
Jesus, the King, the Conqueror reigns:
Bow down to Jesu’s name.
15 To Thee shall earth and hell submit,
And every foe shall fall,
Till death expires beneath Thy feet,
And God is all in all! Languages: English Tune Title: LAFAYETTE
The Lord Unto My Lord Hath Said
Lord, At Thy Table I Behold
Author: Joseph Stennett, 1663-1713 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11124 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord, at Thy table I behold
The wonders of Thy grace;
But most of all admire that I
Should find a welcome place.
2 I, that am all defiled with sin,
A rebel to my God;
I, that have crucified His Son,
And trampled on His blood.
3 What strange, surprising grace is this,
That such a soul has room!
My Savior takes me by the hand,
My Jesus bids me come.
4 Eat, O My friends, the Savior cries,
The feast was made for you;
For you I groaned, and bled, and died,
And rose, and triumphed, too.
5 With trembling faith, and bleeding hearts,
Lord, we accept Thy love;
’Tis a rich banquet we have had,
What will it be above?
6 Ye saints below, and hosts of Heaven,
Join all your praising powers;
No theme is like redeeming love,
No Savior is like ours.
7 Had I ten thousand hearts, dear Lord,
I’d give them all to Thee;
Had I ten thousand tongues, they all
Should join the harmony. Languages: English Tune Title: DOWNS
Lord, At Thy Table I Behold
Lord, I Esteem Thy Judgments Right
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11129 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord, I esteem Thy judgments right,
And all Thy statutes just;
Thence I maintain a constant fight
With every flattering lust.
2 Thy precepts often I survey;
I keep Thy law in sight,
Through all the business of the day,
To form my actions right.
3 My heart in midnight silence cries,
"How sweet Thy comforts be!"
My thoughts in holy wonder rise,
And bring their thanks to Thee.
4 And when my spirit drinks her fill
At some good word of Thine,
Not mighty men that share the spoil
Have joys compared to mine.
