the darkness falls at thy behest;
to thee our morning hymns ascended;
thy praise shall sanctify our rest.
2 We thank thee that thy Church unsleeping,
while earth rolls onward into light,
through all the world her watch is keeping,
and rests not now by day or night.
3 As o'er each continent and island
the dawn leads on another day,
the voice of prayer is never silent,
nor dies the strain of praise away.
4 The sun that bids us rest is waking
our brethren 'neath the western sky,
and hour by hour fresh lips are making
thy wondrous doings heard on high.
5 So be it, Lord: thy throne shall never,
like earth's proud empires, pass away;
thy kingdom stands, and grows for ever,
till all thy creatures own thy sway. Topics: Evening; Funerals Languages: English Tune Title: ST CLEMENT

At the Name of Jesus
Author: Caroline Maria Noel, 1817-1877 Hymnal: Journeysongs (3rd ed.) #465 (2012) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Scripture: Hebrews 1:9 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.

And lowly in thy temple bend;
See crowds on every side arise,
Eager to mount above the skies.

And pour on thee a flood of day!
Thy day shall shine forever bright,
For God himself shall be thy light.

Rocks fall, and mountains melt away!
Fixed in his word, his power remains:
Thy glorious King, Messiah, reigns!
