Lift Up Thy Head, O Chrsitendom!

Author: N. F. S. Grundtvig Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #243 (1927) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 First Line: Lift up thy head, O Christendom! Lyrics: 1 Lift up thy head, O Christendom! Behold in heav'n thy blessed home For which thy heart is yearning. There is thy Joy and soul’s Delight Who soon with pow'r and glory bright Will be for thee returning. 2 And when in ev'ry land and clime Thou shalt behold His signs sublime, The sinful world appalling, Then shalt with joy thou lift thine eyes And see Him coming in the skies, While suns and stars are falling. 3 Tho' for His day thy heart must yearn, Do not forget why His return Thy Savior is delaying, And ask Him ne'er before His hour To shake the heavens with His power And judge the lost and straying. 4 O Christendom, for Sodom pray Till sighs and prayers no more can stay The judgment day impending. Then cries the Lord: “Behold I come,” And thou shalt answer: “To Thy home I am with joy ascending.” 5 Then far and wide the trumpet calls, The dead awake, death’s kingdom falls, And God’s elect assemble. The Lord ascends His royal throne And greets His faithful as His own, While hearts in gladness tremble. Topics: Comfort and Hope Languages: English Tune Title: [Lift up thy head, O Chrsitendom]

Lift up thy head, O Christendom!

Author: Nikolai Frederick Severin Grundtvig, 1783-1872; J. C. Aaberg Hymnal: Hymns and Hymnwriters of Denmark #77 (1945) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: Lift up thy head, O Christendom! Behold above the blessed home For which thy heart is yearning. There dwells the Lord, thy soul’s delight, Who soon with power and glory bright Is for His bride returning. And when in every land and clime, All shall behold His signs sublime, The guilty world appalling, Then shalt with joy thou lift thine eyes And see Him coming in the skies, While suns and stars are falling. While for His coming thou dost yearn, Forget not why His last return The Savior is delaying, And ask Him not before His hour To shake the heavens with His power, Nor judge the lost and straying. O saints of God, for Sodom pray Until your prayers no more can stay The judgment day impending. Then cries the Lord: “Behold, I come!” And ye shall answer: “To Thy home We are with joy ascending!” Then loud and clear the trumpet calls, The dead awake, death’s kingdom falls, And God’s elect assemble. The Lord ascends the judgment throne, And calls His ransomed for His own, While hearts in gladness tremble. Languages: English
