Oh Realm of Light

Author: Emily H. Miller Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Oh realm of light! whose morning star Lyrics: 1. Oh realm of light! whose morning star To Bethlehem’s manger led the way, Not yet upon our longing eyes Shines the full splendor of thy day: Yet still across the centuries fall, Both strong and sweet, our Lord’s command; And still with steadfast faith we cry, Behold, the kingdom is at hand! 2. Oh realm of Heav’n! whose dawn began With love’s divine, incarnate breath, Our hearts were slow to understand The lessons of that life and death: Yet though with stammering tongues we tell Redemption’s story, strange and sweet, The world’s Redeemer, lifted up Shall draw the nations to His feet. 3. Oh realm of peace! whose music clear Swept through Judea’s starlit skies, Still the harsh sounds of human strife Break on thy heavenly harmonies; Yet shall thy song of triumph ring In full accord, from land to land, And men with angels learn to sing, Behold, the kingdom is at hand!

O God, I Cried, No Dark Disguise

Author: Edna St. Vincent Millay Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O God, I cried, no dark disguise Can e’er hereafter hide from me Thy radiant identity, Thy radiant identity!

The winged squadrons of the sky Look down with sad and wond'ring eyes To see th' approaching sacrifice. 4 Ride on! ride on in majesty! The last and fiercest strife is nigh; The Father on His sapphire throne Expects His own Anointed Son. 5 Ride on! ride on in majesty!

Welcome The Bright Millennial Day

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Welcome the bright millennial day When former things are passed away, When earth in righteousness renewed, Blooms as at the beginning good! Wine from the mountain tops distills, And milky currents from the hills, Rivers of living water rise, Pure as their Fountain in the skies. 2 Forth issuing from Jehovah’s throne Sent by the Father and the Son, The Holy Ghost His fullness pours In glorious, everlasting showers; The King of saints resides below, His Spirit doth our vale o’erflow, Brings back the garden of the Lord, And shows us paradise restored.
