O Happy Day, When Saints Shall Meet
Author: John Barnard, 1681-1770 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 40 hymnals First Line: O! Happy day, when saints shall meet Lyrics: 1 O! Happy day, when saints shall meet
To part no more—the thought is sweet;
No more to feel the rending smart,
Oft felt below, when Christians part.
2 O happy place I still must say,
Where all but love is done away;
All cause of parting there is past;
Their social feast will ever last.
3 Such union here is sought in vain,
As there, in every heart, will reign;
There separations can’t compel
The saints to bid the sad farewell.
4 On earth, when friends together meet,
And find the passing moments sweet;
Time’s rapid motions soon compel,
With grief to say, "Dear friends, farewell."
5 The shepherd feels the smarting shock,
Of parting from his weeping flock;
His feelings for them, none can tell,
When forced to say, "My friends, farewell."
6 The happy season soon will come,
When saints shall meet in Heaven, their home;
Eternally with Christ to dwell,
Nor ever hear the sound, "Farewell." Used With Tune: MARYTON Text Sources: A New Selection of Seven Hundred Evangelical Hymns by John Dobell (Morristown, NJ: Peter A. Johnson, 1810)

The Great Archangel's Trump
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 60 hymnals First Line: The great archangel's trump shall sound Lyrics: 1. The great archangel’s trump shall sound,
While twice ten thousand thunders roar
Tear up the graves, and cleave the ground,
And make the greedy sea restore.
2. The greedy sea shall yield her dead,
The earth no more her slain conceal;
Sinners shall lift their guilty head,
And shrink to see a yawning hell.
3. But we, who now our Lord confess,
And faithful to the end endure,
Shall stand in Jesus’ righteousness,
Stand, as the Rock of ages, sure.
4. We, while the stars from heaven shall fall,
And mountains are on mountains hurled,
Shall stand unmoved amidst them all,
And smile to see a burning world.
5. The earth, and all the works therein,
Dissolve, by raging flames destroyed,
While we survey the awful scene,
And mount above the fiery void.
6. By faith we now transcend the skies,
And on that ruined world look down;
By love above all height we rise,
And share the everlasting throne. Used With Tune: MARYTON Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1749

Almighty Father, hear our cry
The heavens declare Thy glory, Lord
Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 592 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The heavens declare Thy glory, Lord,
In every star Thy wisdom shines;
But, when our eyes behold Thy word,
We read Thy name in fairer lines.
2 The rolling sun, the changing light,
And night and day Thy power confess;
But the blest volume Thou hast writ
Reveals Thy justice and Thy grace.
3 Sun, moon, and stars convey Thy praise
Round the whole earth, and never stand;
So when Thy truth began its race,
It touched and glanced on every land.
4 Nor shall Thy spreading gospel rest
Till through the world Thy truth has run;
Till Christ has all the nations blest,
That see the light or feel the sun.
5 Great Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Bless the dark world with heavenly light;
Thy gospel makes the simple wise;
Thy laws are pure, Thy judgments right.
