Floating o'er Judea's plains

Author: Dr. A. D. Watson, 1859- Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Advent Second Coming of Christ Lyrics: 1 Floating o'er Judea's plains, And down the echoing height, Hark, the love-evangel strains Are blending with the night, Angel voices from the sky With music fill each vale and glen: "Glory be to God on high, On earth, good will to men." 2 Still is heard the shepherd's quest That rose to Bethlehem's walls, Burdened with a great unrest, The world for Christ still calls, From the vales and hills He trod, Still rings the song that ne'er shall cease: "Glory, glory be to God, To men, good will and peace." 3 Evermore that wondrous strain The door of hope unbars, Whether in the cloistered fane Or 'neath the Syrian stars, Sing the joy-notes once again, And let them echo to the sky: "Peace on earth, good will to men, Glory to God on high." 4 Angel harps, our souls inspire With grace to conquer wrong, Fill us with a deep desire To live the angel song, Till the life of love be found In every land beneath the sky, Till the whole wide world resound: "Glory to God on high." Used With Tune: SYRIAN STARS

Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 309 hymnals Topics: Second Coming of Christ Lyrics: 1 And will the Judge descend? And must the dead arise, And not a single soul escape His all-discerning eyes? 2 How will my heart endure The terrors of that day, When earth and heaven, before His face Astonish'd shrink away? 3 But ere that trumpet shakes The mansions of the dead, Hark, from the gospel's gentle voice, What joyful tidings spread? 4 Ye sinners, seek His grace, Whose wrath ye cannot bear; Fly to the shelter of His cross, And find salvation there. 5 So shall that curse remove, By which the Saviour bled; And the last awful day shall pour His blessings on your head.

Meet us in our desert journey; give a sign that you are near: burning bushes, parted waters, food aplenty in the wild. As we look for signs and wonders, help us see you in a child. 2 God Incarnate, we are waiting for the feast day of your birth. Looking back and looking forward to the Christ's return to earth. Help us to proclaim the gospel, 'til the world is reconciled. Let us set your holy table for each woman, man, and child. 3 God the Spirit, we are waiting for your presence here and now. Humbled by our sinful weakness, at your mercy we will bow. Search our hearts and make us ready, speak in language strong and mild, help each one of us, your people, to receive you like a child.
