Psalm 27: The Goodness of the Lord
Longing after unseen pleasures
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 165 hymnals Topics: Heaven Longed for First Line: O could our thoughts and wishes fly Lyrics: 1 O could our thoughts and wishes fly
Above these gloomy shades,
To those bright worlds beyond the sky,
Which sorrow ne'er invades!
2 There joys unseen by mortal eyes,
Or reason's feeble ray,
In ever blooming prospects rise,
Unconscious of decay.
3 Lord, send a beam of light divine,
To guide our upward aim!
With one reviving touch of thine,
Our languid hearts inflame.
4 Then shall, on faith's sublimest wing,
Our ardent wishes rise
To those bright scenes, where pleasures spring
Immortal in the skies.
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:18
Longing after unseen pleasures
Hvordan takker vi vor Herre
Author: Brorson Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Hope and Longing for the Heavenly Lyrics: 1 Hvordan takke vi vor Herre,
For han gav sin Søn herned?
Mange skjønne lidt, desværre,
Paa saa stor en Kjærlighed;
Deres onde Syndelyst
Dække de med Naadens Trøst,
Vil af Jesu intet lære,
Og dog sande Kristne være.
2 Vistnok ingen Sjæl fordømmes,
Naar man paa sin Jesum tror,
Naadens Kilde aldrig tømmes,
Naaden er og bliver stor;
Men det er en afsagt Dom,
Siden Jesus til os kom,
Skal man sig fra Synden vende,
Eller ogsaa evig brænde.
3 At du vil i dine Lyster
Fare fort, som du er van,
Og dig dog ved Jesum trøster,
Gaar i Evighed ei an.
Kjære Hjerte, Et af To:
Enten udi Bøn og Tro
Syndens Vei at fly og hade,
Eller lide Sjæleskade.
4 Lyset er i Verden kommet;
Veed du ogsaa om du tror?
Har du nogen Tid fornummet,
At din Jesus i dig bor?
Har hans Naade-Straalers Kraft
I din Sjæl sin Virkning havt?
Kan du i dit Hjerte finde,
At der er et Lys derinde?
5 Hvordan gaar man dog og drømmer
Udi saadan vigtig Sag,
Og i Sikkerhed forsømmer
Naadens dyrbare Dag!
Det er Tid at sanse vel,
Og at sorge for din Sjæl;
Det et Tid at forkomme
Herrens store Vredes Domme.
6 Gud, som Lyset lod opklare
Udi Naadens blide Aar,
Vil og ingenlunde spare
Den, som dette Lys forsmaar.
Vil du vende Ryggen til,
Gud dig fra sig støde vil;
Den, som ei vil Lyset kjende,
Han skal sig paa Lyset brænde.
7 Lad din Naades Glans oprinde,
Søde Jesu, at jeg maa
Derved altid Veien finde,
Som jeg bør at vandre paa!
Vær min Formand, at jeg ei
Kommer paa den brede Vei,
Eller fra dit Fodspor viger,
Til jeg ind i Himlen stiger!
Hvordan takker vi vor Herre
I Dag skal alting sjunge
Author: H. A. Brorson Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Hope and Longing for the Heavenly; Hope and Longing for the Heavenly; Hope and Longing for the Heavenly Lyrics: 1 I Dag skal alting sjunge,
Hvad Hjerte har og Tunge,
Basun og Salter frem!
Se, se hvor Jesus farer
Med Serafimers Skarer
Igjennem Skyen hjem!
2 O, se den Engle-Vrimlen
Omkring Guds Stol i Himlen
Ved Lyden af hans Trin!
Den Gamle udaf Dage
Selv reiser sig at tage
Imod sin Benjamin.
3 Sid hos min høire Side!
Sid, siger han, du Blide,
Al Verdens Liv og Sol!
Guds Hær med Lovsangs Toner
Og alle Ældstes Kroner
Sank ned for Lammets Stol.
4 Hvad gjør du her tilbage?
Far efter ham! du tage
Som Duen Flugt, min Aand!
Far hen, at se den søde
Guds Søn, som for dig døde,
Med Almagts Spir i Haand!
I Dag skal alting sjunge

Our fathers' God to Thee;
Let my petitions reach Thy ear,
My prayer accepted be;
O God our shield, look Thou on us,
Reveal Thyself in grace,
And let Thy own anointed one
Behold Thee face to face.
2 A single day within Thy courts,
Where I Thy beauty see,
Is better than a thousand days,
My God, apart from Thee.
A lowly station in Thy house
Were dearer to my heart
Than in the tents of wickedness
to claim the chiefest part.
3 A sun and shield is God, the Lord,
To lighten and defend;
The Lord to such as look to Him
Will grace and glory send;
To those that walk in righteousness
No good will He deny;
The Lord of Hosts, how blest are they
Who on Thy grace rely. Scripture: Psalm 84 Used With Tune: AUDITE AUDIENTES ME

On Jordan's stormy banks I stand
Author: Samuel Stennett Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1,466 hymnals Topics: Heaven Longings for Lyrics: 1 On Jordan's stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie.
Oh, the transporting, rapturous scene,
That rises to my sight!
Sweet fields arrayed in living green,
And rivers of delight.
2 All o'er those wide-extended plains
Shines one eternal day;
There God the Son forever reigns,
And scatters night away.
No chilling winds nor poisonous breath
Can reach that healthful shore;
Sickness and sorrow, pain and death,
Are felt and feared no more.
3 When I shall reach that happy place,
And be forever blest?
When shall I see my Father's face,
And in His bosom rest?
Filled with delight, my raptured soul
Would here no longer stay;
Though Jordan's waves around me roll,
Fearless I'd launch away.
Amen. Used With Tune: HAGUE
On Jordan's stormy banks I stand
Rise, my soul, and stretch thy wings
Author: Robert Seagrave Appears in 813 hymnals Topics: Heaven Longings for Lyrics: 1 Rise, my soul, and stretch thy wings,
Thy better portion trace;
Rise from transitory things,
Toward heaven, thy native place:
Sun and moon, and stars decay,
Time shall soon this earth remove;
Rise, my soul, and haste away
To seats prepared above.
2 Rivers to the ocean run,
Nor stay in all their course;
Fire ascending seeks the sun,--
Both speed them to their source:
To a soul that's born of God,
Pants to view His glorious face,
Upward tends to His abode,
To rest in His embrace.
3 Cease, ye pilgrims, cease to mourn,
Press onward to the prize;
Soony our Saviour will return
Triumphant in the skies:
But a season, and you know
Happy entrance will be given,
All our sorrows left below,
And earth exchanged for heaven.
Amen. Used With Tune: AMSTERDAM
Rise, my soul, and stretch thy wings
