Listen Peoples, While I Tell
Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Listen, peoples, while I tell Lyrics: 1 Listen, peoples, while I tell
What an elder race befell;
Hearken to the solemn word,
Learn obedience to the Lord.
2 Israel, erst from bondage freed,
Chosen for a holy seed,
Blessed with an unerring code,
Worshipped one eternal God!
3 He their enemies subdued,
Hearts by boundless bounties wooed,
Fed them with the finest wheat,
Milk and honey, purest treat!
4 Oft as trouble raised its cry,
Still was their protector nigh;
From His secret place He came,
Swift to rescue, slow to blame.
5 Long His pity had endured,
Long their prosperous state secured;
Till, impatient of reproof,
Impious, they disowned His truth!
6 Then, abandoned to their lust,
Sold to selfishness and dust,
Soon a ’whelming tempest came;
Swept away their place and name. Scripture: Psalm 81 Used With Tune: GUIDE Text Sources: The Psalms, Newly Paraphrased for the Service of the Sanctuary by Jospeh P. Bartrum (Boston: Russell, Osborne, & Company, 1833)

Gather Up, O Earth,Thy Dead
Author: John Bowring Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Gather up, O earth, thy dead Lyrics: 1 Gather up, O earth, thy dead,
Grass! thy peaceful pillow spread;
Add another mortal’s bed
To the bed where mortals sleep;
Where they sleep—but not to rise,
When morn’s sunlight clears the skies,
But to rest—while centuries
Their long-during watches keep.
2 Centuries shall pass away,
Earth shall hasten to decay;
Days will bring of days the Day
When the exhausted cycles end;
Then earth’s every fugitive
Shall appear—the grave shall give
Up its dead—the dead shall live,
And the eternal Judge descend.
3 Day of wonders! Day of woe!
Day of evil’s overthrow!
Day of joy! when all shall know—
Know, and see the Lord of Heaven—
Then, Oh, then, may hope appear,
Faith our fainting spirits cheer,
Love dry up the trembling tear,
Whispering sweetly, "Sins forgiven." Used With Tune: GUIDE Text Sources: A Collection of Hymns for Public and Private Worship by John Relly Beard (London: John Green, 1837)
