Come, Ye Thankful People, Come

Author: Henry Alford Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 753 hymnals Topics: God Creator; Judgment; Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 Come, ye thankful people, come; raise the song of harvest home. All is safely gathered in ere the winter storms begin. God, our maker, does provide for our wants to be supplied; come to God's own temple, come, raise the song of harvest home. 2 All the world is God's own field, fruit unto his praise to yield, wheat and tares together sown, unto joy or sorrows grown. First the blade, and then the ear, then the full corn shall appear, Lord of harvest, grant that we wholesome grain and pure may be. 3 For the Lord our God shall come and shall take his harvest home, from his field shall in that day all offenses purge away, give his angels charge at last in the fire the tares to cast, but the fruitful ears to store in his garner evermore. 4 Even so, Lord, quickly come to your final harvest home, gather all your people in, free from sorrow, free from sin, there, forever purified, in your presence to abide. Come, with all your angels, come, raise the glorious harvest home. Scripture: Matthew 13:36-43 Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE'S, WINDSOR

Great God, what do I see and hear!

Author: William Bengo Collyer Appears in 300 hymnals Topics: Day of Wrath; Judgment; Resurrection of Men; Wrath Of God Lyrics: 1 Great God, what do I see and hear! The end of things created! The Judge of man I see appear, On clouds of glory seated. The trumpet sounds; the graves restore The dead which they contained before: Prepare, my soul, to meet Him. 2 The dead in Christ shall first arise, At the last trumpet's sounding, Caught up to meet Him in the skies, With joy their Lord surrounding: No gloomy fears their souls dismay; His presence sheds eternal day On those prepared to meet Him. 3 But sinners, filled with guilty fears, Behold His wrath prevailing, For they shall rise, and find their tears And sighs are unavailing: The day of grace is past and gone; Trembling, they stand before the throne, All unprepared to meet Him. 4 O Christ, Who diedst and yet dost live, To me impart Thy merit; My pardon seal, my sins forgive, And cleanse me by Thy Spirit. Beneath Thy cross I view the day When heaven and earth shall pass away, And thus prepare to meet Thee. Amen. Used With Tune: LUTHER'S HYMN

Day of Wrath

Author: Thomas of Celano; W. J. Irons, 1812-83 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 109 hymnals Topics: Judgment Day First Line: Day of wrath, O day of mourning Lyrics: 1 Day of wrath, O day of mourning! See fulfilled the prophet's warning: Heav'n and earth in ashes burning. Wondrous sound the trumpet flingeth, Through earth's sepulchers it ringeth, All before the throne it bringeth. O what fear man's bosom rendeth When from heav'n the Judge descendeth On whose sentence all dependeth. 2 Death is struck and nature quaking; All creation is awaking, To its Judge an answer making. Lo, the book, exactly worded, Wherein all hath been recorded; Thence shall judgment be awarded. When the Judge His seat attaineth, And each hidden deed arraigneth, Nothing unavenged remaineth. 3 What shall I, frail man, be pleading, Who for me be interceding When the just are mercy needing? King of Majesty tremendous, Who dost free salvation send us, Fount of pity, then befriend us! Righteous Judge, for sin's pollution Grant Thy gift of absolution Ere the Day of Retribution. 4 Faint and weary Thou hast sought me, On the cross of suff'ring bought me; Shall such grace be vainly brought me? Think, good Jesus, my salvation Caused Thy wondrous incarnation; Leave me not to sin's damnation! Guilty now I pour my moaning, All my shame with anguish owning: Hear, O Christ, Thy servant's groaning! 5 Bows my heart in meek submission, Strewn with ashes of contrition; Help me in my last condition! Worthless are my prayers and sighing; Yet, Good Lord, in grace complying, Rescue me from fires undying. Thou the sinful woman savedst; Thou the dying thief forgavest; Thus to me true hope vouchsafest! 6 With Thy favored sheep then place me, Nor among the goats abase me, But to Thy right hand upraise me. While the wicked are confounded, Doomed to flames of woe unbounded, Call me, with Thy saints surrounded. To the rest Thou didst prepare me On Thy cross; O Christ, upbear me! Spare, O God, in mercy spare me. Used With Tune: DIES IRAE Text Sources: 13th Cent. Sequence
