Pilgrims and strangers: homeward bound
O Holy City, Seen of John
Author: Walter Russell Bowie Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 88 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 11:16 Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John,
where Christ, the Lamb, does reign,
within whose foursquare walls shall come
no night, nor need, nor pain,
And where the tears are wiped from eyes
that shall not weep again.
2 O shame to us who rest content
while lust and greed for gain
in street and shop and tenement
wring gold from human pain,
And bitter lips in blind despair
cry “Christ has died in vain!”
3 Give us, O God, the strength to build
the city that has stayed
too long a dream, whose laws are love,
whose ways are your own ways,
And where the sun that blazes
is your grace for all our days.
4 Already in the mind of God
that city is prepared:
oh, how its splendor challenges
the souls that greatly dare,
Yes, bids us seize the whole of life
and build its glory there. Topics: Biblical Names; City of God; Justice and Peace; Realm of God; Service; Year A New Year; Year B New Year; Year B All Saints; Year C New Year; Year C Easter 5 Used With Tune: MORNING SONG

In Our Day of Thanksgiving
Author: W. H. Draper Meter: 13.12.13.11 Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 11:13 First Line: In our day of thanksgiving one psalm let us offer Lyrics: 1 In our day of thanksgiving one psalm let us offer
for the saints who before us have found their reward;
when the shadow of death fell upon them, we sorrowed,
but now we rejoice that they rest in the Lord.
2 In the morning of life, and at noon, and at even,
he called them away from our worship below;
but love, in the Wod, at the font, and on the altar
had girt them with grace for the way they should go.
3 These stones that have echoed their praises are holy,
and dear is the ground where their feet have once trod;
yet here they confessed they were strangers and pilgrims,
and still they were seeking the city of God.
4 Sing praise, then, for all who here sought and here found him,
whose journey is ended, whose perils are past;
they believed in the light; and its glory is round them
where the clouds of earth’s sorrows are lifted at last.
