Hark! the Glad Sound!
Author: Philip Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 820 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72 First Line: Hark! the glad sound! The Savior comes! Lyrics: 1 Hark! the glad sound! The Savior comes!
The Savior promised long!
Let ev’ry heart prepare a throne,
and ev’ry voice a song.
On him the Spirit largely poured
exerts its sacred fire,
wisdom and might, and zeal and love,
his holy breast inspire.
2 He comes the pris’ners to release,
in Satan’s bondage held.
The gates of brass before him burst,
the iron fetters yield.
He comes the broken heart to bind,
the bleeding soul to cure,
and with the treasures of his grace
to enrich the humble poor.
3 His silver trumpets publish loud
the day of jubilee.
Our debts are all remitted now,
he sets the people free.
Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace,
thy welcome shall proclaim,
and heav’n’s eternal arches ring
with thy beloved name. Topics: Jesus Christ Second Coming of; Justice; Justice Economic; Liberation; Reign of Christ Used With Tune: COMMUNION Text Sources: Translation and Paraphrases, 1745, alt.

I'll Praise My Maker (Psalm 146)
Author: Isaac Watts; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 527 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72:12-14 First Line: I'll praise my Maker while I've breath Lyrics: 1 I'll praise my Maker while I've breath;
and when my voice is lost in death,
praise shall employ my nobler powers.
My days of praise shall ne'er be past
while life and thought and being last,
or immortality endures.
2 How happy they whose hopes rely
on Israel's God, who made the sky
and earth and seas with all their train;
whose truth forever stands secure,
who saves the oppressed and feeds the poor,
and none shall find God's promise vain.
3 The Lord pours eyesight on the blind;
the Lord supports the fainting mind
and sends the laboring conscience peace.
God helps the stranger in distress,
the widowed and the parentless,
and grants the prisoner sweet release.
4 I'll praise my Maker while I've breath;
and when my voice is lost in death,
praise shall employ my nobler powers.
My days of praise shall ne'er be past
while life and thought and being last,
or immortality endures.

At the Name of Jesus
Author: Caroline Maria Noel, 1817-1877 Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 253 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 At the Name of Jesus
Every knee shall bow,
Ev'ry tongue confess him
King of glory now;
'Tis the Father's pleasure
We should call him Lord,
Who from the beginning
Was the mighty Word.
2 Humbled for a season,
To receive a Name
From the lips of sinners,
Unto whom he came,
Faithfully he bore it
Spotless to the last,
Brought it back victorious,
When through death he passed.
3 Bore it up triumphant,
With its human light,
Through all ranks of creatures,
To the central height,
To the throne of Godhead,
To the Father's breast;
Filled it with the glory
Of that perfect rest.
4 In your hearts enthrone him;
There let him subdue
All that is not holy,
All that is not true:
Crown him as your Captain
In temptation's hour;
Let his will enfold you
In its light and power.
5 Jesus, Lord and Savior,
Shall return again,
With his Father's glory
O'er the earth to reign;
For all wreaths of empire
Meet upon his brow,
And our hearts confess him
King of glory now.

Judge Eternal, Throned in Splendor
Author: Henry Scott Holland Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 108 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 Judge Eternal, throned in splendor,
Lord of lords and King of kings,
with your living fire of judgment
purge this land of bitter things;
solace all its wide dominion
with the healing of your wings.
2 Still the weary folk are pining
for the hour that brings release,
and the city’s crowded clangor
cries aloud for sin to cease,
and the homesteads and the woodlands
plead in silence for their peace.
3 Crown, O God, your own endeavor;
cleave our darkness with your sword;
feed the faithless and the hungry
with the richness of your word;
cleanse the body of this nation
through the glory of the Lord.

Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer (1840-1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 102 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 "Your kingdom come" -- on bended knee
the passing ages pray;
and faithful souls have yearned to see
on earth that kingdom's day.

not less to God belong,
and for the everlasting right
the silent stars are strong.
3 And lo, already on the hills
the flags of dawn appear.
Gird up your loins, ye prophet souls,
proclaim the day is near:
4 the day in whose clear-shining light
all wrong shall stand revealed,
when justice shall be throned with might,
and every heart be healed:
5 when knowledge, hand in hand with peace,
shall walk the earth abroad --
the day of perfect righteousness,
the promised day of God. Topics: Advent; Justice; Kingdom Used With Tune: IRISH
