Glorious things of you are spoken

Author: J. Newton (1725-1807) Hymnal: HTC #494a (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: AUSTRIA Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken, Zion, city of our God; he whose word cannot be broken formed you for his own abode: on the rock of ages founded, what can shake your sure repose? with salvation's walls surrounded you may smile at all your foes. 2 See, the streams of living waters springing from eternal love! well supply your sons and daughters and all fear of want remove: who can faint while such a river ever flows their thirst to assuage? grace, which like the Lord the giver never fails from age to age. 3 Round each habitation hovering, see the cloud and fire appear for a glory and a covering showing that the Lord is near: thus they march, the pillar leading, light by night and shade by day; daily on the manna feeding which he gives them when they pray. 4 Saviour, since of Zion's city I through grace a member am, let the world deride or pity, I will glory in your name: fading are the world's best pleasures, all its boasted pomp and show; solid joys and lasting treasures none but Zion's children know.

When the King shall come again

Author: Christopher Idle (born 1938) Hymnal: HTC #200 (1987) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Tune Title: AVE VIRGO Lyrics: 1 When the King shall come again all his power revealing, splendour shall announce his reign, life and joy and healing: earth no longer in decay, hope no more frustrated; this is God's redemption day longingly awaited. 2 In the desert trees take root fresh from his creation; plants and flowers and sweetest fruit join the celebration; rivers spring up from the earth, barren lands adorning: valleys, this is your new birth; mountains, greet the morning! 3 Strengthen feeble hands and knees, fainting hearts, be cheerful! God who comes for such as these seeks and saves the fearful: now the deaf can hear the dumb sing away their weeping; blind eyes see the injured come walking, running, leaping. 4 There God's highway shall be seen where no roaring lion, nothing evil or unclean walks the road to Zion: ransomed people homeward bound, all your praises voicing, see your Lord with glory crowned, share in his rejoicing!
