Descend from heaven, immortal Dove

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 93 hymnals Topics: Christ his coming, the signs of it; Signs of Christ's coming Lyrics: Descend from heav'n, immortal Dove, Stoop down and take us on thy wings, And mount and bear us far above The reach of these inferior things: Beyond, beyond this lower sky, Up where eternal ages roll; Where solid pleasures never die, And fruits immortal feast the soul. O for a sight, a pleasing sight Of our Almighty Father's throne! There sits our Savior crowned with light, Clothed in a body like our own. Adoring saints around him stand, And thrones and powers before him fall; The God shines gracious through the man, And sheds sweet glories on them all. O what amazing joys they feel While to their golden harps they sing, And sit on every heav'nly hill, And spread the triumphs of their King! When shall the day, dear Lord, appear, That I shall mount to dwell above, And stand and bow amongst them there, And view thy face, and sing, and love? Scripture: Psalm 12

Appears in 26 hymnals Topics: Prophecies Of Jesus Christ, concerning his Coming and Government Lyrics: 1 Sing to the LORD, a new made Song; Let Earth in one assembled Throng, Her common Patron's Praise resound, Who us hath with Salvation crown'd. 2 Sing to the LORD, and bless his Name, From Day to day his Peace proclaim; To Heathen Lands his Fame rehearse, His Wonders to the Universe. 3 He's great, and greatly to be prais'd; In Majesty and Glory rais'd Above all other Deities, He only rules who made the Skies. 4 With Majesty and Honour crown'd, Beauty and Strength his Throne surround, But Pageantry and Idols all Are they, whom Gods the Heathen call. 5 Let Worship be to him restor'd, By you who have false Gods ador'd; Ascribe due Honour to his Name, That Honour he alone can claim. 6 Peace Off'rings on his Altar lay, Before his Throne your Homage pay; To worship at his sacred Court, Let all the trembling World resort. 7 Proclaim aloud, JEHOVAH reigns, Whose Pow'r the Universe sustains; Let therefore Heav'n new Joys confess, And heav'nly Rapture Earth express. 8 He banish'd Justice shall restore, Its loud Applause let Ocean roar; Its mute Inhabitants rejoice, And for his Triumph find a Voice. 9 For Joy let fertile Valleys sing, The chearful Groves their Tribute bring; The tuneful Choir of Birds awake, Their sweetest Melody to make. 10 The LORD's Approach to celebrate: Who now sets out with awful State From Heav'n, to judge the World, he's come, With Justice to reward and doom.
