Author: Frederick Lucian Hosmer (1840-1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 102 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22 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.
2 But the slow watches of the night
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

Life Is Like a Mountain Railroad (Life's Railway to Heaven)
Author: M. E. Abbey Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Appears in 90 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22:12 First Line: Life is like a mountain railroad Refrain First Line: Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us Lyrics: 1 Life is like a mountain railroad,
With an engineer that’s brave;
We must make the run successful
From the cradle to the grave;
Watch the curves, the fills, the tunnels,
Never falter, never quail;
Keep your hand upon the throttle,
And your eye upon the rail.
Refrain:
Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us,
Till we reach the blissful shore,
Where the angels wait to join us
In Thy praise forevermore.
2 You will roll up grades of trial,
You will cross the bridge of strife;
See that Christ is your conductor
On this lightning train of life;
Always mindful of obstruction,
Do your duty, never fail;
Keep your hand upon the throttle,
And your eye upon the rail. [Refrain]
3 You will often find obstructions,
Look for storms and wind and rain;
On a fill or curve or trestle,
They will almost ditch your train;
Put your trust alone in Jesus;
Never falter, never fail;
Keep your hand upon the throttle,
And your eye upon the rail. [Refrain]
4 As you roll across the trestle,
Spanning Jordan’s swelling tide;
You behold the Union Depot
Into which your train will glide;
There you’ll meet the Sup’rintendent,
God the Father, God the Son,
With the hearty, joyous plaudit,
“Weary pilgrim, welcome home.” [Refrain]

High on His Everlasting Throne
Author: John Wesley, 1703-1791 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 73 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22:12 Lyrics: 1 High on His everlasting throne
The King of saints His work surveys;
Marks the dear souls He calls His own,
And smiles on the peculiar race.
2 He rests well pleased their toils to see;
Beneath His easy yoke they move;
With all their hearts and strength agree
In the sweet labor of His love.
3 See, where the servants of their God,
A busy multitude appear;
For Jesus day and night employed,
His heritage they toil to clear.
4 The love of Christ their hearts constrains
And strengthens their unwearied hands;
They spend their sweat and blood and pains
To cultivate Emmanuel's lands.
5 O multiply Thy sower’s seed,
And fruit we every hour shall bear:
Throughout the world Thy gospel spread,
Thine everlasting truth declare.
Amen. Topics: The Gospel; God Abiding Presence; Gospel Tidings Used With Tune: MENDON

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 70 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22:12 First Line: Methinks the last great day is come Lyrics: 1 Methinks the last great day is come,
Methinks I hear the trumpet sound,
That shakes the earth, rends ev'ry tomb,
And wakes the pris'ners under ground.
2 The mighty deep gives up her trust,
Aw'd by the Judge's high command;
Both small and great now quit their dust,
And round the dread tribunal stand.
3 Behold the awful books display'd,
Big with th'important fates of men!
Each word and deed now public made,
Written by heaven's unerring pen.
4 To ev'ry soul the books assign
The joyous or the dread reward;
Sinners in vain lament and pine:
No pleas the Judge will here regard.
5 Lord, when these awful leaves unfold,
May life's fair book my soul approve;
There may I read my name enroll'd,
And triumph in redeeming love. Topics: Consummation of Things Judgment and Eternity

stands alone in glory blazing;
let us, if we dare to speak,
join the saints and angels praising.
Hallelujah!

Moses and Elijah speaking.
All the prophets and the law
shout through them their joyful greeting:
Hallelujah!
3 Swift the cloud of glory came,
God proclaiming, in its thunder,
Jesus as the Son by name!
Nations, cry aloud in wonder:
Hallelujah!
4 This is God's beloved Son!
Law and prophets sing before him,
first and last and only One.
All creation shall adore him!
Hallelujah! Used With Tune: MOWSLEY
