Rise, my soul, and stretch thy wings
Hymnal: Selection of Hymns, for Public Worship designed to be used with Watts' #36 (1827) Meter: 7.6
Rise, my soul, and stretch thy wings
The Bridegroom soon will call us
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #37 (1893) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 THE Bridegroom soon will call us:
Come, all ye wedding guests!
May not His voice appall us
While slumber binds our breasts!
May all our lamps be burning,
And oil be found in store,
That we with him returning,
May open find the door!
2 There shall we see delighted
Our dear Redeemer’s face,
Who leads our souls benighted
To glory by His grace;
The patriarchs shall meet us,
The prophets’ holy band,
Apostles, martyrs, greet us
In that celestial land.
3 They will not blush to own us
As brothers, sisters dear,
Love ever will be shown us
When we with them appear
We all shall come before Him,
Who for us man became,
As Lord and God adore Him,
And ever bless His name.
4 Our Father, rich in blessing,
Will give us crowns of gold,
And to His bosom pressing,
Impart a bliss untold,
Will welcome with embraces
Of never-ending love,
And deck us with His graces
In blissful realms above.
5 In yonder home shall never
Be silent music’s voice;
With hearts and lips forever
We shall in God rejoice;
The angels shall adore Him,
All saints shall sing His praise,
And bring with joy before Him
Their sweetest heavenly lays.
6 In mansions fair and spacious
Will God the feast prepare,
And, ever kind and gracious,
Bid us it's riches share;
There bliss that knows no measure
From springs of love shall flow,
And never-changing pleasure
His bounty will bestow.
7 Thus God shall from all evil
Forever make us free,
From sin and from the Devil,
From all adversity,
From sickness, pain and sadness,
From troubles, cares and fears,
And grant us heavenly gladness,
And wipe away our tears.

The Bridegroom soon will call us
The people called Christians
Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #41 (1854) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics:
1.
The people called Christians
Have many things to tell
About the land of Canaan,
Where saints and angels dwell;
But here a dismal ocean,
Enclosing them around,
With its tides, still divides
Them from Canaan's happy ground.
2.
Many have been impatient
To work their passage through,
And with united wisdom
Have tried what they could do;
But vessels built by human skill
Have never sailed far,
Till we found them aground
On some dreadful, sandy bar.
3.
The everlasting gospel
Hath launched the deep at last
Behold the sails expanded
Around the towering mast!
Along the deck in order,
The joyful sailors stand,
Crying, "Ho!"--here we go
To Immanuel's happy land.
4.
We're now on the wide ocean
We bid the world farewell!
And though where we shall anchor
No human tongue can tell;
About our future destiny
There need be no debate,
While we ride on the tide,
With our Captain and his Mate.
5.
To those who are spectators
What anguish must ensue,
To hear their old companions
Bid them a last adieu!
The pleasures of your paradise
No more our hearts invite;
We will sail--you may rail,
We shall soon be out of sight.
6.
The passengers united
In order, peace, and love;--
The wind is in our favor,
How swiftly do we move!
Though tempests may assail us,
And raging billows roar,
We will sweep through the deep,
Till we reach fair Canaan's shore.

How lost was my condition
Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #49 (1854) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics:
1.
How lost was my condition,
Till Jesus made me whole;
There is but one Physician
Can cure a sin-sick soul.
Next door to death he found me,
And snatched me from the grave,
To tell to all around me,
His wondrous power to save.
2.
The worst of all diseases
Is light compared with sin;
On every part it seizes,
But rages most within:
'Tis palsy, plague, and fever,
And madness, all combined;
And none but a believer
The least relief can find.
3.
From men great skill professing,
I thought a cure to gain;
But this proved more distressing,
And added to my pain;
Some said that nothing ailed me,
Some gave me up for lost;
Thus every refuge failed me,
And all my hopes were crossed.
4.
At length this great Physician
(How matchless is his grace.)
Accepted my petition,
And undertook my case;
First gave me sight to view him,
For sin my eyes had sealed;
Then bid me look unto him--
I looked, and I was healed.
5.
A dying, risen Jesus,
Seen by the eye of faith,
At once from anguish frees us,
And saves the soul from death;
Come, then, to this Physician,
His help he'll freely give;
He makes no hard condition,
'Tis only Look and live.
