Who reigns enthroned above;

At whose supreme command
From earth we rise, and seek the joys
At his right hand.

To heav'n ascend:
I shall behold God's face,
I shall his power adore,
And sing the wonders of his grace
For evermore.
3 There dwells the Lord, our King,
The Lord, our Righteousness,
Triumphant o'er the world and sin,
The Prince of Peace;
On Zion's sacred height
His kingdom he maintains,
And, glorious with the saints in light,
For ever reigns.
4 The God who reigns on high
The great archangels sing,
And "Holy, Holy, Holy," cry,
"Almighty King!
Who was, and is, the same,
For all eternity,
Immortal Father, great I AM,
All glory be." Topics: Lent 3,Year C; Ordinary Time 32, Year C; Lenten Season; Funeral; Gathering; Grace; Heaven; Kingdom; Praise; Saints; Trust Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI

The One Church
Author: Bernhardt S. Ingemann; Sabine Baring-Gould Hymnal: Timeless Truths #988 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: John 17:21 First Line: Through the night of doubt and sorrow Lyrics: Through the night of doubt and sorrowOnward goes the pilgrim band,Singing songs of expectation,Marching to the promised land.Clear before us through the darknessGleams and burns the guiding light:Brother clasps the hand of brother,Stepping fearless through the night.One the light of God’s own presence,O’er His ransomed people shed,Chasing far the gloom and terror,Bright’ning all the path we tread.One the object of our journey,One the faith which never tires,One the earnest looking forward,One the hope our God inspires.One the strain that lips of thousandsLift as from the heart of one;One the conflict, one the perilOne the march in God begun.One the gladness of rejoicingOn the far eternal shore,Where the one almighty FatherReigns in love forevermore.Onward, therefore, pilgrim brothers,Onward, with the cross our aid!Bear its shame, and fight its battle,Till we rest beneath its shade.Soon shall come the great awaking,Soon the rending of the tomb;Then the scatt’ring of all shadows,And the end of toil and gloom.

Far from these narrow scenes of night
Author: Steele Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #953 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: John 17:24 Lyrics: 1 Far from these narrow scenes of night,
Unbounded glories rise,
And realms of joy and pure delight,
Unknown to mortal eyes.
2 Fair, distant land! could mortal eyes
But half its charms explore,
How would our spirits long to rise,
And dwell on earth no more!
3 No cloud those blissful regions know,--
Realms ever bright and fair;
For sin, the source of mortal woe,
Can never enter there.
4 Oh, may the heavenly prospect fire
Our hearts with ardent love,
Till wings of faith and strong desire
Bear every thought above.
5 Prepare us, Lord, by grace divine,
For thy bright courts on high;
Then bid our spirits rise and join
The chorus of the sky. Topics: Heaven; Glories of Heaven

Author: John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: RitualSong #778 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Scripture: John 17:21 Lyrics: 1 Christ is made the sure foundation,
Christ the head and cornerstone;
Chosen of the Lord, and precious,
Binding all the Church in one;
Holy Zion's help for ever,
And our confidence alone.
2 To this temple where we call you,
Come, O Lord of hosts, today;
With your wonted loving kindness
Hear your servants as they pray,
And your fullest benediction
Shed in all its bright array.
3 Here vouchsafe to all your servants
What they ask of you to gain;
What they gain from you for ever
With the blessed to retain,
And hereafter in your glory
Evermore with you to reign.
4 Laud and honor to the Father,
Laud and honor to the Son,
Laud and honor to the Spirit,
Ever three and ever One,
One in might and One in glory,
While unending ages run.
