He Walks among the Golden Lamps

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #315 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 He walks among the golden lamps on feet like burnished bronze: his hair as snows of winter white, his eyes with fire aflame and bright his glorious robe of seamless light surpassing Solomon's. 2 And in his hand the seven stars and from his mouth a sword: his voice the thunder of the seas; all creatures bow to his decrees, who holds the everlasting keys and reigns as sov'reign Lord. 3 More radiant than the sun at noon, who was, and is to be: who was, from everlasting days; who lives, the Lord of all our ways; to him be majesty and praise for all eternity. Topics: Jesus Christ His Kingly Office; Christ Lord; Christ Praise of Scripture: Revelation 1:12-20 Languages: English Tune Title: REVELATION (Tredinnick)

He also edited a Christian magazine, Crusade, which was founded after Billy Graham's 1955 London crusade.
