Author: Joel Blomqvist Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Tänk uti din ungdoms dagar På din skapare och Gud! O, "min son, gif mig ditt hjärta," Lyder än din Herres bud. Om och världen dig behagar, Då hon vänligt mot dig ler, Hennes fröjd förbyts i smärta, Hon till sist dig öfverger. 2 Säll den yngling, som ej nöjer Sig med världens falska fröjd, Som vid hennes usla brunnar Aldrig känner sig förnöjd. Lycklig den sig tidigt böjer Ödmjukt för sin Gud och hör Ordet, som han oss förkunnar, Tror det och därefter gör. Topics: Väckelse och Inbjudning; Invitation Used With Tune: AUSTRIA

Looking For Our Lord And Savior

Author: Richard W. Adams Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Looking for our Lord and Savior, Coming on the clouds of Heav’n, Clad in power and shining glory, Come to end the reign of sin. Long foretold by prophets, seers: First the tribulation ends, Then the sun and moon will darken, And the stars shall fall from Heav’n. 2 All the heavens’ powers are shaken, And appears the sign on high, That the Son of Man, returning, Once again to earth draws nigh. All the tribes of earth now mourning, As they hear the trumpet blast, And they look on Him they piercèd, Weeping bitter tears at last. 3 First He sends His reaper angels To uproot and bind the weeds, Set in bundles for the furnace, As befits their evil deeds. Sown by Satan’s evil malice, Children of the wicked one, They refused to bend the knee, And to bow to God’s own Son. 4 Then shall all the righteous shine forth In their Father’s kingdom grand; See them gathered from the four winds And the earth’s remotest land, His elect from every nation, All the saints Heav’n’s borders hold, All the children of the kingdom, Gathered to the Shepherd’s fold. 5 So He severs just from wicked, Rebels casts into the fire; From the furnace hear the wailing, Gnashing teeth upon the pyre. All with ears, now hear the lesson: Day and hour, no one knows; So be ready for the harvest, Be the wheat that golden grows. Used With Tune: AUSTRIA

In the name which earth and heaven

Author: Rev. J. Ellerton Meter: 8.7 D Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In the name which earth and heaven, Ever worship, praise, and fear, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Shall a house be builded here: Here with prayer its deep foundations, In the faith of Christ, we lay, Trusting by His help to crown it, With the top-stone in its day. 2 Here as in their due succession Stone on stone the workmen place, Thus, we pray, unseen but surely, Jesu, build us up in grace; Till, within these walls completed, We complete in Thee are found; And to Thee, the one Foundation, Strong and living stones, are bound. 3 Fair shall be Thine earthly temple: Here the careless passer-by Shall bethink him, in its beauty, Of the holier House on high; Weary hearts and troubled spirits Here shall find a still retreat; Sinful souls shall bring their burden Here to the Absolver's feet. 4 Yet with truer, nobler beauty, Lord, we pray, this house adorn, Where Thy Bride, Thy Church redeemèd, Robes her for her marriage morn; Clothed in garments of salvation, Rich with gems of heavenly grace, Spouse of Christ, arrayed and waiting Till she may behold His face. 5 Here in due and solemn order May her ceaseless prayer arise; Here may strains of holy gladness Lift her heart above the skies; Here the word of life be spoken; Here the child of God be sealed; Here the Bread of Heaven be broken, "Till He come," Himself revealed. 6 Praise to Thee, O Master-Builder, Maker of the earth and skies; Praise to Thee, in Whom Thy temple Fitly framed, together lies; Praise to Thee, eternal Spirit, Binding all that lives in one: Till our earthly praise be ended, And the eternal song begun! Amen. Topics: Laying of a Corner-Stone Used With Tune: [In the name which earth and heaven]

God, Who Stretched the Spangled Heavens

Author: Catherine Cameron Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 46 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God, who stretched the spangled heavens, infinite in time and place, flung the suns in burning radiance through the silent fields of space, we your children, in your likeness, share inventive powers with you. Great Creator, still creating, show us what we yet may do. 2 Proudly rise our modern cities, stately buildings, row on row; yet their windows, blank, unfeeling, stare on canyoned streets below, where the lonely drift unnoticed in the city's ebb and flow, lost to purpose and to meaning, scarcely caring where they go. 3 We have ventured worlds undreamed of since the childhood of our race; known the ecstasy of winging through untraveled realms of space; probed the secrets of the atom, yielding unimagined power, facing us with life’s destruction or our most triumphant hour. 4 As each far horizon beckons, may it challenge us anew, children of creative purpose, serving others, honoring you. May our dreams prove rich with promise, each endeavor well begun. Great Creator, give us guidance till our goals and yours are one. Used With Tune: AUSTRIA
