Arise, ye mourning saints, arise!
Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: SDAH1886 #799 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Arise, ye mourning saints, arise!
The Lord our Leader is;
The foe before his banner flies,
And victory is his.
2 We follow thee, our Guard and Guide,
Our Saviour, and our King;
We follow thee, through grace supplied
From heaven's eternal spring.
3 We soon shall see the promised day
When all our toils shall cease;
When we shall cast our arms away,
And dwell in endless peace.
4 This blessed hope supports us here;
It makes our burdens light;
'Twill serve our drooping hearts to cheer,
Till faith shall end in sight:
5 Till, of the glorious prize possessed,
We hear of war no more;
And ever with our Leader rest,
On yonder peaceful shore. Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Tune Title: CHOPIN
Arise, ye mourning saints, arise!
As drowsy earth is dreaming still
Author: R. F. Cottrell Hymnal: SDAH1886 #789 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As drowsy earth is dreaming still
Of coming good and golden days,
An angel voice the heavens thrill:
Fear God, ye people, give him praise;
2 The long-appointed Judgment hour
Is come at last; worship ye him
Who by his own almighty power
Made heaven, earth, sea, and gushing stream.
3 Another cry the earth doth greet,
The second angel's voice divine:
Great Babel's fall is now complete;
Nations are drunken with her wine.
4 Now the third angel's voice resounds,
A final, fearful, warning voice
Against false worship; and propounds
God's word and worship for men's choice.
5 Here saints in patience waiting stand,
Through faith obedient to God's will,
Fulfilling each divine command
Till called to stand on Zion's hill. Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Tune Title: HARTEL
As drowsy earth is dreaming still
As Jesus died, and rose again
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #895 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As Jesus died, and rose again
Victorious from the dead;
So his disciples rise and reign
With their triumphant Head.
2 The time draws nigh, when from the clouds
Christ shall with shouts descend;
And the last trumpet's awful voice
The heavens and earth shall rend.
3 The saints of God, from death set free,
With joy shall mount on high;
The heavenly hosts, with praises loud,
Shall meet them in the sky.
4 Together to their Father's house
With joyful hearts they go;
And dwell forever with the Lord,
Beyond the reach of woe. Topics: Second Advent Executive Judgment Tune Title: GRANDEUR
As Jesus died, and rose again
As oft, with worn and weary feet
Author: James Edmeston Hymnal: SDAH1886 #706 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As oft, with worn and weary feet,
We tread earth's rugged valley o'er,
The thought, how comforting and sweet,
Christ trod this very path before!
Our wants and weaknesses he knows
From life's first dawning till its close.
2 Do sickness, feebleness, or pain,
Or sorrow in our path appear?
The recollection will remain,
More deeply did he suffer here:
His life, how truly sad and brief,
Filled up with suffering and with grief!
3 If Satan tempts our hearts to stray,
And whispers evil things within,
So did he, in the desert way,
Assail our Lord with thoughts of sin,
When worn, and in a feeble hour,
The tempter came with all his power.
4 Just such as I, this earth he trod,
With every human ill but sin;
And, though indeed the Son of God,
As I am now, so he has been:
My God, my Saviour! look on me
With pity, love, and sympathy
Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Tune Title: YOAKLEY
As oft, with worn and weary feet
As pants the wearied hart for cooling springs
Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #100 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As pants the wearied hart for cooling springs,
That sinks exhausted in the summer's chase,
So pants my soul for thee, great King of kings,
So thirst to reach thy sacred dwelling-place,
2 Lord, thy sure mercies, ever in my sight,
My tender shall gladden through the tedious day;
And 'midst the dark and gloomy shades of night,
To thee, my God, I'll tune the grateful lay.
3 Why faith, my soul? why doubt Jehovah's aid?
Thy God the God of mercy still shall prove;
Within his courts thy thanks shall yet be paid;
Unquestioned be his faithfulness and love. Topics: Worship Attributes and Providence of God Tune Title: MENDELSSOHN
As pants the wearied hart for cooling springs
As the hart, with eager looks
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: SDAH1886 #481 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As the hart, with eager looks,
Panteth for the water-brooks,
So my soul, athirst for thee,
Pants the living God to see;
2 Why art thou cast down, my soul?
God, thy God, shall make thee whole;
Why art thou disquieted?
God shall lift thy fallen head.
3 When, O, when, with filial fear,
Lord, to thee my soul draws near,
Let thy countenance benign
Be the saving health of mine. Topics: The Christian Hymns for Social Worship Tune Title: DURHAM
As the hart, with eager looks
As the sweet flower which scents the morn
Author: John W. Cunningham Hymnal: SDAH1886 #928 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As the sweet flower that scents the morn,
But withers in the rising day,
Thus lovely was this infant's dawn,
Thus swiftly fled its life away.
2 It died ere its expanding soul
Had ever burned with wrong desires,
Had ever spurned high Heaven's control,
Or ever quenched its sacred fires.
3 It died to sin, it died to cares,
But for a moment felt the rod:
O mourner, such the Lord declares,
Such are the children of our God. Topics: Death and Resurrection Tune Title: MALVERN
As the sweet flower which scents the morn
As through this changing world we roam
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: SDAH1886 #623 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As through this changing world we roam
From infancy to age,
Heaven is the Christian pilgrim's home,
His rest at every stage;
Thither his raptured thoughts ascend,
Eternal joys to share;
There his adoring spirit bends,
While here he kneels in prayer.
2 From earth his freed affections rise
To fix on things above,
Where all his hope of glory lies,
And love is perfect love;
Ah! there may we our treasure place,
There let our hearts be found,
That sill where sin abounded, grace
May more and more abound. Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Tune Title: COURAGE
As through this changing world we roam
As time rolls on amid earth's gloom profound
Author: R. F. Cottrell Hymnal: SDAH1886 #251 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As time rolls on amid earth's gloom profound,
And wearing toil presents a ceaseless round,
'Tis good to have some way-marks on our road,
To cheer our hearts, and lift our thoughts to God.
2 The Sabbath to this end divinely blest,
Not only gives the body timely rest,
But by its influence helps our minds to raise
And tune our hearts to our Creator's praise.
3 Then hail the glad memorial of our King!
Let us give thanks, and join his praise to sing;
And learning now to celebrate his praise,
So shall we sing of him through endless days. Topics: Worship The Sabbath Tune Title: FREEPORT
As time rolls on amid earth's gloom profound
As when in silence vernal showers
Author: John Rippon Hymnal: SDAH1886 #142 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As when in silence vernal showers
Descend and cheer the fainting flowers,
So, in the secrecy of love,
Falls the sweet influence from above.
2 That heavenly influence let me find
In holy silence of the mind;
While every grace maintains its bloom,
Diffusing wide its rich perfume.
3 Nor let these blessings be confined
To me, but poured on all mankind,
Till earth's wild wastes in verdure rise,
And blooming Eden bless our eyes.
Topics: Worship Holy Spirit Tune Title: MENDON
As when in silence vernal showers
As with gladness men of old
Author: William C. Dix Hymnal: SDAH1886 #299 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old
Did the guiding star behold;
As with joy they hailed its light,
Leading onward, beaming bright;
So, most gracious Lord, may we
Evermore be led to thee.
2 As with joyful steps they sped
To that lowly manger-bed,
There to bend the knee before
Him whom heaven and earth adore;
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek the mercy-seat.
3 As they offered gifts most rare
At that manger rude and bare;
So may we with holy joy,
Pure, and free from sin's alloy,
All our costliest treasures bring,
Christ, to thee, our heavenly King.
4 Blessed Saviour, every day
Keep us in the narrow way;
And, when earthly things are past,
Bring our ransomed souls at last
Where they need no star to guide,
Where no clouds thy glory hide. Topics: Christ First Advent Tune Title: DIX
As with gladness men of old
Ask for the Guide Book, search the blessed Guide Book
Author: F. E. B. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1309 (1886) First Line: Ask for the Guide Book, the Bible from heav'n Lyrics: 1 Ask for the Guide Book, the Bible from heav'n;
For our salvation the pages were giv'n;
If of a truth you are seeking the way,
Ask for the Guide Book, believer, and obey.
Chorus:
Ask for the Guide Book, search the blessed Guide Book;
Read it, heed it, on your upward way;
Ask for the Guide Book, search the blessed Guide Book;
Read your Bible every day.
2 Heed not the voices that bid you remain,
Heed not the false guides who seek only gain;
Ask for the Guide Book, its teachings are true,
Heeding it daily will carry you through. [Chorus]
3 Thousands are trav'ling in death's downward way;
Few walk the path that is narrow today:
One ends in darkness, and one ends in light,
One is the wrong way, and one is the right. [Chorus]
4 Though you may teach that the Saviour has died,
Claim to be just, and appear sanctified,
Still, if the law of the Lord you deny,
"Vain your profession," the Lord will reply [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Scriptures, Law, Sabbath Scripture: John 16:13 Tune Title: ASK FOR THE GUIDE BOOK
Ask for the Guide Book, search the blessed Guide Book
Ask for the old paths, by the prophets trod
Author: F. E. B. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1310 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Ask for the old paths, by the prophets trod;
Ask for the old paths, leading up to God;
If you are trav'ling in a pathway new,
'Tis not the Bible that's guiding you.
Chorus:
Ask for the old paths, walk in the old paths;
Christ and the prophets trod the way before:
Ask for the old paths, walk in the old paths,
Leading away to the better shore.
2 Christ and the prophets traveled hand in hand;
Heeding the Bible, we with them must stand;
But when we walk with custom for a guide,
How soon to error we turn aside! [Chorus]
3 Then, being honest, search, and you shall find
Christ by his teaching proves the law divine;
He by the prophets showed his gospel true;
So law and gospel we offer you. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Scriptures, Law, Sabbath Scripture: Jeremiah 6:16 Tune Title: ASK FOR THE OLD PATHS
Ask for the old paths, by the prophets trod
Come, O come
Author: F. E. Belden Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1243 (1886) First Line: Ask not to be excused Lyrics: 1 Ask not to be excused,
There's earnest work to do;
Stand ready to be used
Where God may station you.
His invitation kind
To thee has oft been giv'n;
Accept, and thou shalt find
'Tis sweet to work for Heav'n.
Refrain:
Come, O come,
Ask not to be excused;
Come, O come,
Stand ready to be used.
Ask not to be excused,
This answer may be giv'n:
Thou hast my love abused,
Thou art excused from heav'n.
2 Ask not to be excused,
The Master calls today;
Too long hast thou refused,
Now hasten to obey.
The harvest fields are white,
The laborers are few;
Let this be thy delight,
The Master's work to do. [Refrain]
3 Ask not to be excused,
There's danger in delay;
That wondrous love abused,
Forever turns away.
While Mercy gently pleads
And points the way to heav'n,
While Jesus intercedes,
O come and be forgiv'n. [Refrain]

Asleep in Jesus! blessed sleep

To be for such a slumber meet!
With holy confidence to rest
In hope of being ever blest.

That manifests the Saviour's power.

Then burst the fetters of the tomb,
And wake in full, immortal bloom. Topics: Death and Resurrection Tune Title: REST

We will greet each other by the crystal sea;
When the Lord himself from heaven to his glory bids them come,
What gath'ring of the faithful that will be!
Chorus:
What a gath'ring, gath'ring,
At the sounding of the glorious jubilee!
What a gath'ring, gath'ring,
What a gath'ring of the faithful that will be!

We shall gather, and the saved and ransomed see;
Then to meet again together, on the bright, celestial shore,
What a gath'ring of the faithful that will be! [Chorus]
3 At the great and final Judgment, when the hidden comes to light,
When the Lord in all his glory we shall see;
At the bidding of our Saviour, "Come, ye blessed, to my right,"
What a gath'ring of the faithful that will be! [Chorus]

In triumphant strains the glorious jubilee;
Then to meet and join to sing the song of Moses and the Lamb,
What a gath'ring of the faithful that will be! [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Judgment and Second Advent Scripture: Psalm 1:5 Tune Title: WHAT A GATHERING THAT WILL BE!

At thy command, O Lord, our hope
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1097 (1886) Lyrics: 1 At thy command, O Lord, our hope,
We come around thy table here;
We break the bread, we bless the cup,
That show thy death, till thou appear.
2 Our faith adores thy bleeding love,
And trusts for life in One that died;
We hope for heavenly crowns above
From a Redeemer crucified.
3 Let the vain world pronounce it shame,
And cast their scandals on thy cause!
We come to boast our Saviour's name,
And make our triumph in his cross.
4 With joy we tell the scoffing age,
He that was dead hath left the tomb;
He lives above their utmost rage,
And we are waiting till he come. Topics: The Church Lord's Supper Tune Title: ZEPHYR

Author of Good! to thee I turn
Author: James Merrick Hymnal: SDAH1886 #758 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Author of Good! to thee I turn:
Thy ever wakeful eye
Alone can all my wants discern,
Thy hand alone supply.
2 O, let thy fear within me dwell,
Thy love my footsteps guide!
Thy love shall meaner loves expel,
That fear all fears beside.
3 Not to my wish, but to my want,
Do thou thy gifts apply;
Unasked, what good thou knowest, grant;
What ill, though asked, deny. Topics: The Christian Guidance and Protection Tune Title: DUNDEE
Author of Good! to thee I turn
Awake! Jerusalem, awake!
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1011 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Awake! Jerusalem, awake!
No longer in thy sins lie down;
The garment of salvation take,
Thy beauty and thy strength put on.
2 Shake off the dust that blinds thy sight,
And hides the promise from thine eyes;
Arise, and struggle into light;
The great Deliverer calls, Arise!
3 Shake off the bands of sad despair;
Zion, assert thy liberty;
Look up, thy broken heart prepare,
And God shall set the captive free.
4 Vessels of mercy, sons of grace,
Be purged from every sinful stain;
Be like your Lord, his word embrace,
Nor bear his hallowed name in vain. Topics: The Church Zeal and Union Tune Title: HEBER
Awake! Jerusalem, awake!
Awake, my heart, arise, my tongue
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #438 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Awake, my heart, arise, my tongue,
Prepare a tuneful voice;
In God, the life of all my joys,
Aloud will I rejoice.
2 'Tis he adorned my naked soul,
And made salvation mine;
Upon a poor, polluted worm
He makes his graces shine.
3 And lest the shadow of a spot
Should on my soul be found,
He took the robe the Saviour wrought,
And cast it all around.
4 How far that heavenly robe excels
What earthly princes wear!
These ornaments, how bright they shine!
How white the garments are!
5 The Spirit wrought my faith and love
And hope, and every grace;
But Jesus spent his life to work
The robe of righteousness. Topics: The Sinner Repentance and Acceptance Tune Title: ARLINGTON
Awake, my heart, arise, my tongue
