The Sands of Time Are Sinking
Author: Anne Ross Cousin Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.5 Appears in 311 hymnals Refrain First Line: and glory, glory dwelleth in Immanuel's land Lyrics: 1 The sands of time are sinking;
the dawn of heaven breaks;
the summer morn I've sighed for,
the fair, sweet morn, awakes.
Dark, dark, hath been the midnight,
but dayspring is at hand,
and glory, glory dwelleth
in Emmanuel's land.
2 The King there in his beauty
without a veil is seen;
it were a well-spent journey
though sev'n deaths lay between!
The Lamb, with his fair army,
doth on Mount Zion stand,
and glory, glory dwelleth
in Emmanuel's land.
3 With mercy and with judgment
my web of time he wove,
and aye the dews of sorrow
were lustered by his love;
I'll bless the hand that guided;
I'll bless the heart that planned;
and glory, glory dwelleth
in Emmanuel's land. Scripture: Psalm 101:1 Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN Text Sources: Samuel Rutherford, 1600-1661 (based on sayings of)

Author: Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878; Johann Franck, 1618-1677 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 37 hymnals First Line: O Light of Gentle nations Lyrics: 1 O Light of Gentile nations,
O Savior from above,
Drawn by your Spirit's leading,
We come with joy and love
To enter now your holy temple
And wait with watchful mind,
As Simeon once had waited
His Savior God to find.
2 Yes, Lord, your servants meet you
In ev'ry holy place
Where your true Word has promised
That we should see your face.
And still today you grant us,
Who gather round you here,
In arms of faith to bear you,
As did that aged seer.
3 Let us, O Lord, be faithful
Like Simeon to the end,
So that his prayer exultant
May from our hearts ascend:
"O Lord, now let your servant
Depart in peace, I pray,
Since I have seen my Savior,
Have here beheld his day." Topics: Presentation of the Lord; Holy Family B Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN

I Want a Principle Within
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 224 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I want a principle within
Of watchful, godly fear,
A sensibility of sin,
A pain to feel it near.
Help me the first approach to feel
Of pride or wrong desire;
To catch the wandering of my will,
And quench the kindling fire.
2 From Thee that I no more may stray,
No more Thy goodness grieve,
Grant me the filial awe, I pray,
The tender conscience give.
Quick as the apple of an eye,
O God, my conscience make!
Awake my soul when sin is nigh,
And keep it still awake.
3 Almighty God of truth and love,
To me Thy pow'r impart;
The burden from my soul remove,
The hardness from my heart.
O may the least omission pain
My reawakened soul,
And drive me to that blood again,
Which makes the wounded whole.
Amen. Topics: Conscience; Renewal Personal Scripture: Acts 24:16 Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN
I Want a Principle Within
O Young and Fearless Prophet
Author: S. Ralph Harlow Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 37 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O young and fearless Prophet
of ancient Galilee,
your life is still a summons
to serve humanity;
to make our thoughts and actions
less prone to please the crowd,
to stand with humble courage
for truth with hearts uncowed.
2 We marvel at the purpose
that held you to your course
while ever on the hilltop
before you loomed the cross;
your steadfast face set forward
where love and duty shone,
while we betray so quickly
and leave you there alone.
3 O help us stand unswerving
against war's bloody way,
where hate and lust and falsehood
hold back Christ's holy sway;
forbid false love of country
that keeps us from your call,
you lift above the nations
the unity of all.
4 Stir up in us a protest
against our greed for wealth,
while others starve and hunger
and plead for work and health;
where homes with little children
cry out for lack of bread,
who live their years sore burdened
beneath a gloomy dread.
5 O young and fearless Prophet,
we need your presence here,
amid our pride and glory
to see your face appear;
once more to hear your challenge
above our noisy day,
again to lead us forward
along God's holy way. Topics: God's World Justice and Righteousness; Discipleship; God: Righteousness; Jesus Christ: Presence; Justice; Righteousness; Hunger Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN
