How Beautiful the Sight
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 69 hymnals Topics: Christian Friendship; Heaven Reunion in ; Peace Ecclesiastical; Unity of Believers; The Church The Communion of Saints Lyrics: 1 How beautiful the sight
of brethren who agree
in friendship to unite,
and bonds of charity;
'tis like the precious ointment, shed
o'er all his robes, from Aaron's head.
2 'Tis like the dew that fills
the cups of Hermon's flow'rs;
or Zion's fruitful hill,
bright with the drops of show'rs,
when mingling odors breathe around,
and glory rests on all the ground.
3 For there the Lord commands
blessings, a boundless store,
from his unsparing hands,
yea, life for evermore:
thrice happy they who meet above
to spend eternity in love!
Scripture: Psalm 133 Used With Tune: ST. GODRIC

"The burden rolled away"
Author: Ellen H. Willis Appears in 109 hymnals Topics: Christians Privileges; Comfort; Communion of Saints At Lord's Table; Covenant Divine First Line: I left it all with Jesus long ago Lyrics: 1 I left it all with Jesus long ago,
All my sins I brought him and my woe;
When by faith I saw him on the tree,
Heard his small, still whisper, "'Tis for thee,"
From my heart the burden rolled away!
Happy day.
2 I leave it all with Jesus, for he knows
How to steal the bitter from life's woes;
How to gild the tear-drop with his smile,
Make the desert garden bloom awhile:
When my weakness leaneth on his might,
All seems light.
3 I leave it all with Jesus day by day;
Faith can firmly trust him, come what may.
Hope has dropped her anchor, found her rest,
In the calm sure haven of his breast;
Love esteems it heaven to abide
At his side. Scripture: Psalm 116:7 Used With Tune: SECURITY

Author: Henry Alford Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Appears in 441 hymnals Topics: Funerals; Christians Triumph of; Church Communion of Saints; Heaven Reunion in ; Life Everlasting ; Jesus Christ His Second Coming and Judgment Lyrics: 1 Ten thousand times ten thousand
in sparkling raiment bright,
the armies of the ransomed saints
throng up the steeps of light:
'tis finished, all is finished,
their fight with death and sin:
fling open wide the golden gates
and let the victors in.
2 What rush of alleluias
fills all the earth and sky!
What ringing of a thousand harps
bespeaks the triumph nigh!
O day, for which creation
and all its tribes were made;
O joy, for all its former woes
a thousand fold repaid!
3 O then what raptured greetings
on Canaan's happy shore;
what knitting severed friendships up
where partings are no more!
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle,
that brimmed with tears of late;
orphans no longer fatherless,
nor widows desolate.
4 Bring near thy great salvation,
thou Lamb for sinners slain;
fill up the roll of thine elect,
then take thy pow'r, and reign:
appear, Desire of nations,
thine exiles long for home;
show in the heav'n thy promised sign;
thou Prince and Savior, come.
Scripture: Revelation 5:11-12 Used With Tune: ALFORD

And thus his works abide.

Are swept from off the land;

Nor in the judgment stand.
