Now Dawning Glows The Day Of Days

Author: Ambrose of Milan, 340-397; Fenton J. A. Hort Hymnal: CYBER #9851 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Now dawning glows the day of days; All Heaven resounds with songs of praise! From earth loud shouts of triumph rise And hell beneath with groans replies. 2 For He, the mighty King of day, Hath crushed proud death’s unlawful sway, And, marching through that dark domain, He broke the weary prisoner’s chain. 3 Fierce soldiers o’er His tomb kept guard; A mighty stone the entrance barred; But, bursting from His prison, He rose Triumphant o’er His baffled foes. 4 Loosed are the pains of hell this hour; Death over life hath lost his power; "The Lord is risen," the angel said, "Why seek the living ’mid the dead?" 5 Thou gracious King and Lord of day, Dwell Thou within our hearts, we pray; So from Thine own shall grateful praise Rise to Thy throne through all our days.

Do Flesh And Nature Dread To Die?

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: CYBER #9863 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Do flesh and nature dread to die? And timorous thoughts our minds enslave? But grace can raise our hopes on high, And quell the terrors of the grave. 2 Do we not dwell in clouds below, And little know the God we love? Why should we like this twilight so, When ’tis all noon in worlds above? 3 When we put off this fleshly load, We’re from a thousand mischiefs free, For ever present with our God, Where we have longed and wished to be. 4 No more shall pride or passion rise, Or envy fret, or malice roar, Or sorrow mourn, with downcast eyes, And sin defile our eyes no more. 5 ’Tis best, ’tis infinitely best, To go where tempters cannot come, Where saints and angels, ever blest, Dwell and enjoy their heavenly home. 6 O for a visit from my God, To drive my fears of death away, And help me through this darksome road, To realms of everlasting day!

Elisha, Struck With Grief And Awe

Author: John Newton Hymnal: CYBER #9929 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Elisha, struck with grief and awe, Cried, "Ah! where now is Israel’s stay?" When he his honored master saw Borne by a fiery car away. 2 But while he looked a last adieu, His mantle, as it fell, he caught; The Spirit rested on him too, And equal miracles he wrought. 3 "Where is Elijah’s God?" he cried, And with the mantle smote the flood; His word controlled the swelling tide, Th’obedient waters upright stood. 4 The wonder-working Gospel, thus From hand to hand, has been conveyed We have the mantle still with us, But where, O where, the Spirit’s aid? 5 When Peter first this mantle waved, How soon it melted hearts of steel! Sinners, by thousands, then were saved, But now how few its virtues feel? 6 Where is Elijah’s God, the Lord, Thine Israel’s hope, and joy, and boast! Reveal Thine arm, confirm Thy Word, Give us another Pentecost! 7 Assist Thy messenger to speak, And while he aims to lisp Thy truth, The bonds of sin and Satan break, And pour Thy blessing on our youth. 8 For them we now approach Thy throne, Teach them to know and love Thy name, Then shall Thy thankful people own Elijah’s God is still the same.

Fairest Of All The Lights Above

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: CYBER #9967 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Fairest of all the lights above, Thou sun, whose beams adorn the spheres, And with unwearied swiftness move, To form the circles of our years; 2 Praise the Creator of the skies, That dressed thine orb in golden rays: Or may the sun forget to rise, If he forget his maker’s praise! 3 Thou reigning beauty of the night, Fair queen of silence, silver moon, Whose gentle beams, and borrowed light, Are softer rivals of the noon; 4 Arise, and to that sovereign Power Waxing and waning honors pay, Who bade thee rule the dusky hours, And half supply the absent day! 5 Ye twinkling stars, who gild the skies, When darkness has its curtain drawn, Who keep your watch with wakeful eyes, When business, cares, and day, are gone; 6 Proclaim the glories of your Lord, Dispersed through all the heav’nly street, Whose boundless treasures can afford So rich a pavement for His feet. 7 Thou Heav’n of heav’ns, supremely bright, Fair palace of the court divine, Where, with inimitable light, The Godhead condescends to shine. 8 Praise thou thy great Inhabitant, Who scatters lovely beams of grace On every angel, every saint, Nor veils the luster of His face. 9 O God of glory, God of love, Thou art the sun that makes our days; With all Thy shining works above Let earth and dust attempt Thy praise!

Fall Down, Ye Nations!

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: CYBER #9970 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Fall down, ye nations! and adore Lyrics: 1 Fall down, ye nations! and adore Jehovah on the mercy-seat; Like prostrate seas on every shore That cast their billows at your feet. 2 Let hallelujahs to the skies, With ocean’s everlasting sound, The voice of many waters, rise Day without night, as time goes round. 3 Come from the East with gifts, ye kings! With gold, and frankincense, and myrrh; Where’er the morning spreads her wings, Let man to God his vows prefer. 4 Come from the West! the bond, the free; His easy service make your choice; Ye isles of the Pacific sea, Like halcyon nests, in God rejoice. 5 Come from the South! through desert sands A highway for the Lord prepare; Let Ethiopia stretch her hands And Libya pour her soul in prayer. 6 Come from the North! let Europe raise In all her languages one song; Give God the glory, power and praise, That to His holy name belong.

God Is A Spirit, Great And Just

Author: Henry Ware, Jr. Hymnal: CYBER #9984 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 God is a spirit, great and just; We His dependent creatures are: His pleasure called us from the dust; His goodness keeps us, and His care. 2 He dwells enthroned in light on high; He lives throughout the boundless whole; Invisible to mortal eye, Unsearchable by human soul. 3 To feeble man ’twas never giv’n The great mysterious One to know, To scan the majesty of Heav’n, Or make His essence known below. 4 Enough for us, His sovereign Word Reveals Him as the God of love, The just, the ever gracious Lord, Who can but righteousness approve. 5 Unfolds His blissful Heav’n above, And glory for His children there; While those who slight His offered love Shall sink to darkness and despair. 6 There, also, is enough revealed, To guide us in the way we go; And what His wisdom has concealed Might be but misery to know. 7 O, then adore th’eternal Mind With wonder, gratitude, and fear; Nor seek what man may never find, The knowledge of His essence here.

Father Of Men, Thy Care We Bless

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: CYBER #9989 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Father of men, Thy care we bless, Which crowns our families with peace; From Thee they spring, and by Thy hand Their root and branches are sustained. 2 To God, most worthy to be praised, Be our domestic altars raised; Who, Lord of Heaven, scorns not to dwell With saints, in their obscurest cell. 3 To Thee may each united house Morning and night present its vows; Our servants there, and rising race Be taught Thy precepts and Thy grace. 4 O may each future age proclaim The honors of Thy glorious name, While pleased, and thankful, we remove To join the family above.
