The Spacious Firmament

Author: Joeseph Addison Hymnal: SDAH1985 #96 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D First Line: The spacious firmament on high Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high, With all the blue, ethereal sky, And spangled heavens, a shining frame, Their great Original proclaim. Th’unwearied sun from day to day Does his Creator’s power display, And publishes to every land The work of an almighty hand 2 Soon as the evening shades prevail, The moon takes up the wondrous tale; And nightly to the listening earth Repeats the story of her birth; While all the stars that round her burn, And all the planets in their turn, Confirm the tidings as they roll, And spread the truth from pole to pole 3 What though in solemn silence all Move round the dark terrestrial ball? What though no real voice nor sound Amid their radiant orbs be found? In reason’s ear they all rejoice And utter forth a glorious voice, Forever singing as they shine, “The hand that made us is divine.” Topics: God the Father Power of God in Nature Scripture: Psalm 19 Tune Title: CREATION

O Solemn Thought

Author: Roswell F. Cottrell (1814-1892) Hymnal: SDAH1985 #417 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D First Line: O solemn thought and can it be Lyrics: 1 O solemn thought and can it be The hour o judgment now is come Which soon must fix our destiny, And seal the sinner’s fearful down? Yes, it is so; the judgment hour Is swiftly hastening to its close; Then will the Judge, in mighty power, Descend in vengeance on His foes. 2 He who came down to earth to die An offering for the sins of men, And then ascended upon on high, And will e’er long return again, Is standing now before the ark, And mercy seat and cherubim, To plead His blood for saints, and make The last remembrance of their sin. 3 The solemn moment is at hand When we who have His name confessed, Each in his lot must singly stand And pass the final, searching test. Jesus! we hope in Thee alone; In mercy now upon us look, Confess our names before the throne, And blot our sins from out Thy book. 4 O blessed Savior! may we feel The full importance of this hour. Inspire our hearts with holy zeal, And aid us by Thy Spirit’s power, That we may in Thy strength be strong, And brave the conflict valiantly; Then, on Mount Zion, join the song, And swell the notes of victory.

We Speak of the Realms

Author: Elizabeth Mills (1805-1829) Hymnal: SDAH1985 #434 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D First Line: We speak of the realms of the blest Lyrics: 1 We speak of the realms of the blest, That country so bright and so fair, And oft are its glories confessed- But what must it be to be there! We speak of its pathway of gold- Its walls decked with jewels so rare, Its wonders and pleasures untold- But what must it be to be there! 2 We speak of its freedom of sin, From sorrow, temptation and care, From trials without and within— But what must it be to be there! We speak of its service of love, Of the robes which glorified wear, Of the church of the First Born above- But what must it be to be there! 3 Our mourning is all at an end, When, raised by the life-giving word, We see the new city descend, Adorned as a bride for her Lord; The city so holy and clean, No sorrow can breathe in the air; No gloom of affliction or sin, No shadow of evil, is there. 4 Do Thou, midst temptation and woe, For heaven my spirit prepare; And shortly I also so shall know And feel what it is to be there. Then o’er the bright fields we shall roam, In glory celestial and fair, With saints and with angels at home, And Jesus Himself will be there. Topics: Doctrines Eternal Life Tune Title: CONTRAST

I Saw One Weary

Author: Annie R. Smith (1828-1855) Hymnal: SDAH1985 #441 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D First Line: I saw one weary, sad, and torn Lyrics: 1 I saw one weary, sad, and torn, With eager steps press on the way, Who long the hallowed cross had born, Still looking for the promised day; While many a line of grief and care, Upon his brow was furrowed there; I asked what buoyed his spirits up, “O this” said he-“the blessed hope.” 2 And one I saw, with sword and shield, Who boldly braved the world’s cold frown, And fought, unyielding, on the field, To win an everlasting crown. Though worn with toil, oppressed by foes, No murmur from his heart arose; I asked what buoyed his spirits up, “O this!” said he-“the blessed hope.” 3 And there was one who left behind The cherished friends of early years, And honor, pleasure, wealth re-signed, To tread the path bedewed with tears. Through trials deep and conflict sore, Yet still a smile of joy he wore; O! what can buoy the spirit up? ‘Tis this alone-the blessed hope. 4 While pilgrims here we journey on In this dark vale of sin and gloom, Through tribulation, hate, and scorn, Or through the portals of the tomb, Till our returning King shall come To tkae His exile captives home, O! what can bouy the spirits up? ‘Tis this alone– the blessed hope.
