Another day, a day of grace

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Day of grace; Grace and glory day of Lyrics: Another day, a day of grace Is given us from on high; The sun rejoicing runs his race Of glory round the sky. We love to hail him on the way, With healing in his wings, For every time he brings a day, A day of grace he brings;-- Of grace to weary ones, who sleep As homeless Jacob slept; Of grace to penitents, who weep As fallen Peter wept;-- 120 Grace, such as humble Mary moved To choose the better part, Saul's slaughter-breathing zeal reproved, And open'd Lydia's heart. Such grace be ours, howe'er the past Have well or ill been spent; To-day,--since this may be our last,-- To-day let us repent. Now young and old, now great and small, Seek we our Saviour's face, That we henceforth this day may call A day indeed of grace.

The days and years of time are fled

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Day of grace after Judgment Lyrics: The days and years of time are fled, Sun, moon, and stars have shone their last; The earth and sea gave up their dead, Then vanished at the archangel's blast; All secret things have been reveal'd, Judgment is pass'd, the sentence seal'd, And man to all eternity What he is now henceforth must be. From Adam to his youngest heir, Not one escaped the muster-roll, Each, as if he alone were there, Stood up, and won or lost his soul; These from the Judge's presence go Down into everlasting woe; Vengeance hath barr'd the gates of hell, The scenes within no tongue can tell. But lo! far off the righteous pass To glory from the King's right hand; In silence, on the sea of glass, Heaven's numbers without number stand, While He who bore the cross lays down His priestly robe and victor crown; The mediatorial reign complete, All things are put beneath His feet. Then every eye in Him shall see, (While thrones and powers before Him fall,) The fulness of the Deity, Where God Himself is all in all: 237 O how eternity will ring With the first note the ransom'd sing! While in that strain all voices blend, Which once begun shall never end. In that unutterable song, Shall I employ immortal breath? Or, with the wicked borne along, For ever die "the second death?" Jesus! my life, my light Thou art; Thy word is in my month, my heart; Lord, I believe,--my spirit save From sinking lower than the grave.

I hear a voice that comes from far

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 44 hymnals Topics: Day of grace; Grace day of Lyrics: 1 I hear a voice that comes from far, From Calvary it sounds abroad; It soothes my soul, and calms my fear; It speaks of pardon bought with blood. 2 And is it true that many fly The sound that bids my soul rejoice, And rather choose in sin to die, Than turn an ear to mercy’s voice? 3 Alas for those!the day is near When mercy will be heard no more; Then will they ask, in vain, to hear The voice they would not hear before. 4 With such, I own, I once appear'd, But now I know how great their loss; For sweeter sounds were never heard Than mercy utters from the cross.

There is a time, we know not when

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 85 hymnals Topics: Day of grace; Grace day of Lyrics: 1 There is a time, we know not when, A point, we know not where, That marks the destiny of men To glory or despair. 2 There is a line, by us unseen, That crosses every path; The hidden boundary between God's patience and His wrath. 3 Oh, where is this mysterious bourn, By which our path is cross'd? Beyond which, God Himself hath sworn, That he who goes is lost. 4 How far may we go on in sin? How long will God forbear? Where does hope end, and where begin The confines of despair? 5 An answer from the skies is sent: "Ye that from God depart, While it is called to-day, repent And harden not your heart."
