Battle Hymn of the Republic

Author: Julia Ward Howe, 1819-1910 Hymnal: SOZ1981 #213 (1981) Tune Title: BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC First Line: Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord Refrain First Line: Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Lyrics: 1 Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored; He hath loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword; His truth is marching on. Refrain: Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! Glory! glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on. 2 I have seen him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps; They have builded him an altar in the evening dews and damps; I can read his righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps; His day is marching on. [Refrain] 3 He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat; He is sifting out the hearts of men before his judgment seat; O be swift, my soul, to answer him; be jubilant, my feet! Our God is marching on. [Refrain] 4 In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea, With a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me; As he died to make men holy, let us die to make men free! While God is marching on. [Refrain] Topics: Songs for Special Occasions Languages: English

Some Day

Author: C. A. T.

Refrain: I do not know how long 'twill be, Nor what the future holds for me, But this I know, if Jesus leads me, I shall get home some day. 2 Oftentimes my sky is clear, Joy abounds without a tear, Though a day so bright begun, Clouds may hide tomorrow's sun. There'll be a day that's always bright, A day that never yields to night, And in its light the streets of glory I shall behold some day. [Refrain] 3 Harder yet may be the fight, Right may often yield to might, Wickedness awhile may reign, Satan's cause may seem to gain; There is a God that rules above, With hand of pow'r and heart of love, If I am right, He'll fight my battle, I shall have peace some day. [Refrain] 4 Burdens now may crush me down, Disappointments all around, Troubles speak in mournful sigh, Sorrow through a tear-stained eye; There is a world where pleasure reigns, No mourning soul shall roam its plains, And to that land of peace and glory I want to go some day.
