The Son of God goes forth to war

Author: Bishop Reginald Heber Hymnal: The Hymnal #271a (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Processionals Lyrics: 1 The Son of God goes forth to war, A kingly crown to gain; His blood-red banner streams afar: Who follows in His train? Who best can drink his cup of woe, Triumphant over pain, Who patient bears his cross below, He follows in His train. 2 The martyr first, whose eagle eye Could pierce beyond the grave, Who saw his Master in the sky, And called on Him to save: Like Him, with pardon on his tongue In midst of mortal pain, He prayed for them that did the wrong: Who follows in His train? 3 A glorious band, the chosen few On whom the Spirit came, Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew, And mocked the cross and flame: They met the tyrant's brandished steel, The lion's gory mane; They bowed their necks the death to feel: Who follows in their train? 4 A noble army, men and boys, The matron and the maid, Around the Saviour's throne rejoice, In robes of light arrayed: They climbed the steep ascent of heaven Through peril, toil, and pain: O God, to us may grace be given To follow in their train!

Crown him with many crowns

Author: Matthew Bridges, 1800-1893; Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #274 (1997) Topics: Processionals Lyrics: 1 Crown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon the throne: hark, how the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own! Awake, my soul, and sing of him who died to be your Saviour and your matchless King through all eternity. 2 Crown him the Son of God, before the worlds began; let all who tread where he has trod, crown him the Son of Man, who every grief has known that wrings the human breast, and takes and bears them for his own, that all in him may rest. 3 Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed o’er the grave, and rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save. His glories now we sing who died and rose on high, Who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die. 4 Crown him the Lord of peace whose kingdom is at hand; from pole to pole let warfare cease and Christ rule every land! A city stands on high; Christ's glory it displays, and there the nations "Holy" cry in joyful hymns of praise. 5 Crown him the Lord of years, the Source, the End of time, Creator of the rolling spheres in majesty sublime. All hail, Redeemer, hail, for you have died for me; your praise shall never, never fail through all eternity! Scripture: Isaiah 53:4 Languages: English Tune Title: DIADEMATA

All Depends On Our Possessing

Author: Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #280 (1930) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Processionals and Recessionals General Lyrics: 1 All depends on our possessing God's abundant grace and blessing; Earthly treasures quickly wane. He whose hope on God is founded Has a wealth of joy unbounded, And His heart will firm remain. 2 He Who hitherto has fed me And to verdant pastures led me Is and ever shall be mine; He whose love has wisely schooled me, And whose hand has gently ruled me, Will not leave me now to pine. 3 Many spend their lives in fretting Over trifles, or regretting Things not destined to remain; I shall strive to win a treasure That will bring me lasting pleasure And a joy that ne'er shall wane. 4 Well He knows what best to grant me, Things that pain or that enchant me; All events must have their day. What to do I may not tell Him, Nor to grant my wish compel Him; When He speaks, I will obey. 5 If on earth my days He lengthen, He my weary soul will strengthen In the years that now look dim; Earthly things are ever going, Like a river onward flowing; But I rest in peace on Him.
