Behold! the mountain of the Lord
Lo! what a glorious sight appears
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 286 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo! what a glorious sight appears
To our admiring eyes!
The former seas have passes away,
The former earth and skies.
2 The God of glory down to men
Removes his blest abode;
He dwells with men; his people they,
And he his people's God.
3 His gracious hand shall wipe the tear
From ev'ry weeping eye;
And pains, and groans, and griefs, and fears,
And death itself, shall die.
4 How long, dear Saviour, O how long
Shall this bright hour delay?
Fly swifter round, ye wheels of time,
And bring the welcome day!
5 O may we stand before the Lamb,
When earth and seas are fled,
And hear the Judge pronounce our name
With blessings on our head!
Amen. Topics: Christ Second Coming and Judgment of; Christian Life The Resurrection and Life Everlasting; God Abiding Presence of; God Pity of; Heaven Anticipated Scripture: Revelation 21:1-4 Used With Tune: CREDITON Text Sources: Scottish Paraphrases,, 1751

The golden gates are lifted up
O holy city, seen of John
Author: Walter Russell Bowie, 1882-1969 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 89 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John,
where Christ, the Lamb, doth reign,
within whose four-square walls shall come
no night, nor need, nor pain,
and where the tears are wiped from eyes
that shall not weep again.
2 O shame to us who rest content
while lust and greed for gain
in street and shop and tenement
wring gold from human pain,
and bitter lips in blind despair
cry 'Christ hath died in vain!'
3 Give us, O God, the strength to build
the city that hath stood
too long a dream, whose laws are love,
whose ways are brotherhood,
and where the sun that shineth is
God’s grace for human good.
4 Already in the mind of God
that city riseth fair:
lo, how its splendour challenges
the souls that greatly dare;
yea, bids us seize the whole of life
and build its glory there. Topics: General Hymns Church/Fellowship/Mission Scripture: Revelation 21 Used With Tune: CREDITON Text Sources: Hymns of the Kingdon of God (Harper & Brothers, New York, 1910)

And now the wants are told, that brought
Author: William Bright, 1824-1901 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 49 hymnals Lyrics: 1 And now the wants are told, that brought
thy children to thy knee;
here lingering still, we ask for naught,
but simply worship thee.
2 The hope of heaven’s eternal days
absorbs not all the heart
that gives thee glory, love, and praise,
for being what thou art.
3 For thou art God, the One, the Same,
o’er all things high and bright;
and round us, when we speak thy name,
there spreads a heaven of light.
4 O wondrous peace, in thought to dwell
on excellence Divine;
to know that nought in man can tell
how fair thy beauties shine!
5 O thou, above all blessing blest,
o’er thanks exalted far,
thy very greatness is a rest
to weaklings as we are;
6 For when we feel the praise of thee
a task beyond our powers,
we say, 'a perfect God is he,
and he is fully ours.'
7 All glory to the Father be,
all glory to the Son,
all glory, Holy Ghost, to thee,
while endless ages run. Topics: Hymns for the Church Year Evening Used With Tune: CREDITON
