Dark Brood the Heav'ns O'er Thee
Author: Samuel F. Smith Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 29 hymnals First Line: Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee Lyrics: 1 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee,
Black clouds are gath’ring fast;
In awful power thy God has come,
Thy days of mirth are past.
2 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee,
Red flames are bursting round;
Bright lightnings flash, loud thunders roar,
How shakes the trembling ground!
3 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee,
Behold, the Judge appears;
Unnumbered millions throng around,
Raised from the dust of years.
4 Dark brood the heav’ns o’er thee,
Soon thou wilt hear thy doom;
Destruction opens wide for thee,
Thy chosen, final home.
5 Yet wait, the vision stays;
Why sinner, wilt thou die?
Dark brood the heav’ns—but mercy waits;
This hour to Jesus fly! Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE Text Sources: Sacred Lyrics by Nathan S. S. Beman (Boston: Perkins & Marvin, 1832)

It is not death to die
Author: H. A. César Malan Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 179 hymnals Lyrics: 1 It is not death to die--
To leave this weary road,
And, 'midst the brotherhood on high,
To be at home with God.
2 It is not death to close
The eye long dimmed with tears,
And wake in glorious repose
To spend eternal years.
3 It is not death to bear
The wrench that sets us free
From dungeon chain, to breathe the air
Of boundless liberty.
4 It is not death to fling
Aside this sinful dust,
And rise, on strong exulting wing,
To live among the just.
5 Jesus, Thou Prince of life,
Thy chosen cannot die:
Like Thee, they conquer in the strife,
To reign with Thee on high. Topics: The Last Things Burial and Resurrection; The Last Things Burial and Ressurection; Eternal Life; Resurrection Used With Tune: [It is not death to die]

Out of the deep I call
Author: Henry Williams Baker Appears in 57 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Out of the deep I call
To thee, O Lord, to Thee;
Before Thy throne of grace I fall;
Be merciful to me.
2 Out of the deep I cry,
The woeful deep of sin,
Of evil done in days gone by,
Of evil now within.
3 Out of the deep of fear,
And dread of coming shame,
From morning watch till night is near
I plead the precious Name.
4 Lord, there is mercy now,
As ever was, with Thee;
Before Thy throne of grace I bow;
Be merciful to me.
Amen.

Endureth evermore!

Which only God can grasp;
Which wisdom swayed all times of old,
And truth and mercy clasp.

And will uphold its seat,
And daring sinners, great or less,
Shall perish at Thy feet.

And willing made by grace,
A servant waiting here on Thee,
Till called to see Thy face. Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE Text Sources: Sion's Songs (London: Vallance & Conder, 1785)

The Lord Almighty Reigns (Psalm 93)
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: The Lord Almighty reigns Lyrics: 1 The Lord Almighty reigns
in majesty most bright,
appareled in omnipotence,
and girded round with might.

on its foundations broad;
your throne is fixed, you reign supreme,
the everlasting God.
3 The seas have lifted up
their voice in majesty,
but God on high, supreme in might,
is greater than the sea.
4 Your testimonies, Lord,
in faithfulness excel,
and holy must your servants be
who in your temple dwell.

Lord of the Harvest, Hear
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 190 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord of the harvest, hear
Thy needy servants’ cry;
Answer our faith’s effectual prayer,
And all our needs supply.
2. On Thee we humbly wait;
Our wants are in Thy view,
The harvest truly, Lord, is great;
The laborers are few.
3. Convert, and send forth more
Into Thy Church abroad,
And let them speak Thy Word of power,
As workers with their God.
4. Give the pure Gospel word,
The word of general grace;
Thee let them preach, the common Lord,
Savior of human race.
5. O let them spread Thy name,
Their mission fully prove,
Thy universal grace proclaim,
Thine all redeeming love!
6. On all mankind, forgiven,
Empower them still to call,
And tell each creature under Heaven
That Thou hast died for all. Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1742

Baited, the Question Rose
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Baited, the question rose
From somewhere in the crowd:
"Teacher, you truly know God's way;
Is paying tax allowed?"
2 Jesus perceived their trap:
"Why do you test me so?
Bring here the coin the tax requires,
And see what it will show."
3 "Whose image does it bear,
Whose names and titles tell?"
"Caesar's, of course," they smugly said
And thought they answered well.
4 "Give Caesar what is his;
God, what is God's alone."
Strong words, convincing and profound,
Like truth already known.
5 May we discern, O God,
Your daily gifts of grace;
Show us your image freshly coined
In ev'ry heart and face.
6 Help us fit tribute yield
Through prayers and hymns we raise,
But most of all by deeds of love
To give you thanks and praise. Topics: Parables / Teachings of Jesus; Ordinary Time, Twenty-Eighth Sunday A; Ordinary Time, Twenty-Ninth Sunday A Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE
