Hark! the Vesper Hymn is Stealing
Author: Thomas Moore Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 43 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hark! the vesper hymn is stealing
O’er the waters soft and clear;
Nearer yet and nearer pealing
Soft it breaks upon the ear,
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
Farther now and farther stealing
Soft it fades upon the ear.
2 Now like moonlight waves retreating
To the shore it dies along;
Now like angry surges meeting
Breaks the mingled tide of song.
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
Hark! again like waves retreating
To the shore it dies along.
3 Once again sweet voices ringing
Louder still the music swells;
While on summer breezes winging
Comes the chime of vesper bells.
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate! Amen!
On the summer breezes winging
Fades the chime of vesper bells.
Amen.

Strong, Righteous Man of Galilee

In temple court, thy cleansing rod.
On Pharisees, the scorn of God.
Robed with thy peace we follow thee,
Strong, righteous Man of Galilee.

Girt with thy strength we follow thee:
Not to revenge, but heal and pray,
To turn the cheek and tribute pay:
Girt with thy strength we follow thee,
Firm, peaceful Man of Galilee.
3 Calm, suff'ring Man of Galilee,
Clad in thy grace we follow thee:
Love at the well, share Martha’s loss,
Forgive the nails, and take the cross.
Clad in thy grace we follow thee,
Calm, suff'ring Man of Galilee.
4 God’s peaceful Man of Galilee,
Love’s triumph, we shall follow thee:
To crumble every bound'ry wall,
Build highways to the hearts of all.
Love’s triumph we shall follow thee,
God’s peaceful Man of Galilee.

Brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great Desire of nations,

Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord descending,
In His temple shall appear:

Angels, From the Realms of Glory
At Length There Dawns the Glorious Day
Author: Ozora S. Davis Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 62 hymnals Lyrics: 1 At length there dawns the glorious day
By prophets long foretold,
At length the chorus clearer grows
That shepherds heard of old.
The day of dawning brotherhood
Breaks on our eager eyes,
And human hatreds flee before
The radiant eastern skies.
2 For what are sund’ring strains of blood,
Or ancient caste and creed?
One claim unites all men in God
To serve each human need.
Then here together, brother men,
We pledge the Lord anew
Our loyal love, our stalwart faith,
Our service strong and true.
3 One common faith unites us all,
We seek one common goal;
One tender comfort broods upon
The struggling human soul.
To this clear call of brotherhood
Our hearts responsive ring;
We join the glorious new crusade
Of our great Lord and King.
Amen. Topics: World Friendship Used With Tune: ALL SAINTS NEW

Raise the song of harvest home;

Ere the winter storms begin;

For our wants to be supplied;
Come to God's own temple, come,
Raise the song of harvest home.

All the stores the gardens yield;
All the fruits in full supply,
Ripened 'neath the summer sky;
All that spring with bounteous hand
Scatters o'er the smiling land;
All that liberal autumn pours
From her rich o'erflowing stores;
3 These to thee, our God, we owe,
Source whence all our blessings flow;
And for these our souls shall raise
Grateful vows and solemn praise.
Come, then thankful people, come,
Raise the song of harvest-home;
Come to God's own temple, come,
Raise the song of harvest home.

Fairest Lord Jesus
Meter: 5.6.8.5.5.8 Appears in 574 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Fairest Lord Jesus,
Ruler of all nature,
O thou of God and man the Son;
Thee will I cherish,
Thee will I honor,
Thou, my soul's glory, joy, and crown.
2 Fair are the meadows,
Fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring:
Jesus is fairer,
Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.
3 Fair is the sunshine,
Fairer still the moonlight,
And all the twinkling starry host:
Jesus shines brighter,
Jesus shines purer,
Than all the angels heav'n can boast.
Amen.
