Blessed are the heirs of heaven

Author: F. G. Klopstock Meter: 8.9.8.8.9.8.6.6.4.4.4.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Blessed are the heirs of heaven, The dead, who die in Christ forgiven, They from their labors have release; Saith the Spirit: they are resting. No sting of death is them molesting, For they have found the home of peace; In peace they sweetly rest, Forever they are blest, Hallelujah! Before God's throne to His dear Son Do follow them their works well done. 2 Glory, honor and thanksgiving, Be unto God the ever-living, And to the Lamb for sinners slain! Ransomed host that now victorious Have won the crown of life all glorious, Extol the Lamb, enthroned to reign! For us Himself He gave, He sank into the grave, He is risen! He went before, death's pathway o'er, We follow to the heavenly shore. 3 Sun nor moon their light are casting Where God in glory everlasting Dispels the gloomy shades of night; Now the wished-for day appeareth, O blessed sight, our souls it cheereth, The Lamb is now our sun and light! No more we weep or moan, The former things are gone, Hallelujah! Death's shades now flee, we rise to see The dayspring of eternity.

Christians, prayer may well employ you

Author: W. E. Arends Meter: 8.9.8.8.9.8.6.6.4.4.4.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Christians, prayer may well employ you, The powers of darkness would destroy you: Yea, Satan's self has planned your fall, Wield God's word, a weapon glorious, Against each foe; and soon victorious Our God will make you o'er them all. Is Satan strong and fell? Here is Immanuel. Sing Hosanna! The strong ones yield, With Christ our shield, And we as conquerors hold the field. 2 Cast afar this world's vain pleasures, Aye, boldly fight for heavenly treasures, And steadfast be in Jesus' might, He will help, whate'er betide you: And naught will harm with Christ beside you: Be faith you'll conquer in the fight. Then shame, O weary soul! Look forth toward the goal: There joy waits you. The race then run, The combat done, Your crown of glory will be won. 3 Wisely fight, for time is fleeting, The hours of grace are swift retreating! And life is shortest to the wise. When the trump the dead is waking, And sinners all with fear are quaking, Then will the saints with joy arise. Bless God: our triumph's sure, Though long we did endure Scorn and trial. Thou, Son of God, To Thy abode Wilt lead the way Thyself hast trod. 4 Jesus, all Thy children cherish, And keep them that they never perish, Whom Thou hast purchased with Thy blood. Give new life, that our desiring Be ever heavenward aspiring, For what is holy, true and good. Thy Spirit on us pour, That we may love Thee more-- Hearts o'erflowing: And then will we Be true to Thee In death and life eternally.
