Praise the Lord of heaven, praise Him in the height
Author: T. B. Browne Hymnal: Hymns and Songs for the Sunday School #36 (1914) Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ALBAN'S
Praise the Lord of heaven, praise Him in the height
Those eternal bowers
Author: St. John of Damascus; Rev. J. M. Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #395b (1894) Meter: 6.5 D Lyrics: 1 Those eternal bowers
Man hath never trod,
Those unfading flowers
Round the Throne of God:
Who may hope to gain them
After weary fight?
Who at length attain them
Clad in robes of white?
2 He who wakes from slumber
At the Spirit's voice,
Daring here to number
Things unseen his choice:
He who casts his burden
Down at Jesus' cross;
Christ's reproach his guerdon,
All beside but loss
3 He, who gladly barters
All on earthly ground;
He who, like the martyrs,
Says, "I will be crowned:"
He, whose one oblation
Is a life of love,
Knit in God's salvation
To the blest above.
4 Shame upon you, legions
Of the Heavenly King,
Citizens of regions
Past imagining!
What, with pipe and tabor
Dream away the light,
When He bids you labor,
When He tells you, "Fight!"
5 Jesu, Lord of glory,
As we breast the tide,
Whisper Thou the story
On the other side;
Where the saints are casting
Crowns before Thy feet,
Safe for everlasting,
In Thyself complete.
Amen. Topics: General; Processional; Consecration; Progress Languages: English Tune Title: [Those eternal bowers]
