Oh what their joy and their glory must be

Author: Peter Abelard, 1079-1142; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 139 hymnals Topics: City / City of God; Communion of Saints; Exile; Heaven; Hymns with Doxologies; Recessionals; Zion Lyrics: 1 Oh what their joy and their glory must be, those endless Sabbaths the blessed ones see, crowns for the valiant, to weary ones rest: God shall be all and in all ever blest. 2 Truly, "Jerusalem" name we that shore, city of peace that brings joy evermore; wish and fulfillment are not severed there, nor do things prayed for come short of the prayer. 3 There, where no troubles distraction can bring, we the sweet anthems of Zion shall sing, while for thy grace, Lord, their voices of praise thy blessed people eternally raise. 4 Now, in the meantime, with hearts raised on high, we for that country must yearn and must sigh, seeking Jerusalem, dear native land, through our long exile on Babylon's strand. 5 Low before God with our praises we fall, of whom, and in whom, and through whom are all; of whom, the Father, and through whom, the Son, in whom, the Spirit, with these ever One. Scripture: Psalm 92 Used With Tune: O QUANTA QUALIA

Evening of Life

Author: Henry F. Lyte Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Communion of Saints With God First Line: Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day Lyrics: 1 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away: Change and decay in all around I see; O thou, who changest not, abide with me! 2 Come not in terrors, as the King of kings; But kind and good, with healing in thy wings, Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea; Come, Friend of sinners, and abide with me. 3 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless, Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness; Where is Death's sting? where, Grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if thou abide with me. 4 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies; Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee: In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me! Scripture: Acts 7:59 Used With Tune: EVENTIDE

Oh, that I could forever dwell

Appears in 102 hymnals Topics: Blessedness of piety; Christians their life and experience; Communion With Christ; Happiness of fellowship with God and Christ; Love To Christ; Preciousness of Christ; Presence of Christ Lyrics: 1 Oh, that I could forever dwell, Delighted at the Saviour’s feet; Behold the form I love so well, And all His tender words repeat! 2 The world shut out from all my soul, And heaven brought in with all its bliss, Oh! is there aught, from pole to pole, One moment to compare with this? 3 This is the hidden life I prize-- A life of penitential love; When most my follies I despise, And raise my highest thoughts above; 4 When all I am I clearly see, And freely own with deepest shame; When the Redeemer's love to me Kindles within a deathless flame. 5 Thus would I live till nature fail, And all my former sins forsake; Then rise to God within the veil, And of eternal joys partake.
