On the high cliffs of Jordan with pleasure I stand

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1006 (1886) Lyrics: 1 On the high cliffs of Jordan with pleasure I stand, And view in perspective the fair promised land, The land where the ransomed with singing shall come, And enter the kingdom prepared as their home. 2 'Tis there all the nations redeemed by the Lamb, In circles most lovely, his praises proclaim; Through tempests, and sorrows, and perils, they come, To enter those mansions prepared as their home. 3 All over those peaceful and beautiful plains, The Lord, our Redeemer, in righteousness reigns; His scepter of empire he now doth assume, And kindly doth welcome his followers home. 4 How blest are those regions, the realms of repose, Through which the fair river of life gently flows! The regions ambrosial, forever in bloom; God's own habitation, the saints' happy home! Topics: Reward of Saints Tune Title: FREDERICK

Glorious things of thee are spoken

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1007 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God! He whose word cannot be broken, Formed thee for his own abode: On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, Thou mayest smile at all thy foes. 2 See! the streams of living waters, Springing from eternal love, Well supply thy sons and daughters, And all fear of want remove: Who can faint while such a river Ever flows their thirst to assuage? Grace, which, like the Lord, the Giver, Never fails from age to age. 3 Round each habitation hovering, See the cloud and fire appear For a glory and a covering, Showing that the Lord is near! Thus deriving from their banner Light by night and shade by day, Safe they feed upon the manna Which he gives them when they pray. Topics: Reward of Saints Tune Title: FREDERICK

I Would Not Live Alway

Author: William A. Mühlenberg Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3188 Meter: 11.11.11.11 First Line: I would not live alway; I ask not to stay Lyrics: 1. I would not live alway; I ask not to stay Where storm after storm rises dark o’er the way; The few lurid mornings that dawn on us here Are enough for life’s woes, full enough for its cheer. 2. I would not live alway, thus fettered by sin; Temptation without, and corruption within; E’en the rapture of pardon is mingled with fears, And the cup of thanksgiving with penitent tears. 3. I would not live alway; no, welcome the tomb: Since Jesus hath lain there, I dread not its gloom; There sweet be my rest, till He bid me arise To hail Him in triumph descending the skies. 4. Who, who would live alway, away from his God, Away from yon Heaven, that blissful abode, Where the rivers of pleasure flow o’er the bright plains, And the noontide of glory eternally reigns; 5. Where the saints of all ages in harmony meet, Their Savior and brethren, transported, to greet; While the anthems of rapture unceasingly roll, And the smile of the Lord is the feast of the soul?
