Hark the glad sound! the Saviour comes
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-51 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 819 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 Hark the glad sound! the Saviour comes,
the Saviour promised long;
let every heart prepare a throne,
and every voice a song.
2 On him the Spirit largely poured
exerts its sacred fire;
Wisdom and might and zeal and love
his holy breast inspire.
3 He comes the prisoners to release
in Satan's bondage held;
the gates of brass before him burst,
the iron fetters yield.
4 He comes the broken heart to bind,
the bleeding soul to cure,
and with the treasures of his grace
to enrich the humble poor.
5 His silver trumpets publish loud
the jubilee of the Lord,
our debts are all remitted now,
our heritage restored.
6 Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace,
your welcome shall proclaim,
and heaven's exalted arches ring
with your beloved name.

Hark the glad sound! the Saviour comes
Blest morning! whose first dawning rays
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 154 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 Blest morning! whose first dawning rays
beheld the Son of God
arise triumphant from the grave,
and leave his dark abode.
2 Wrapt in the silence of the tomb
the great Redeemer lay,
till the revolving skies had brought
the third, th' appointed day.
3 Hell and the grave combin'd their force
to hold our Lord in vain;
sudden the Conqueror arose,
and burst their feeble chain.
4 To thy great name, Almighty Lord!
we sacred honours pay,
and loud hosannahs shall proclaim
the triumphs of the day.
5 Salvation and immortal praise
to our victorious King!
Let heav'n and earth, and rocks and seas,
with glad hosannahs ring.
6 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
the God whom we adore,
be glory, as it was, and is,
and shall be evermore. Used With Tune: CREDITON
Blest morning! whose first dawning rays
O thou, who by a star didst guide
Author: John Mason Neale, 1818 - 66 Appears in 67 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 O thou, who by a star didst guide
The wise men on their way,
Until it came and stood beside
The place where Jesus lay;
2 Although by stars thou dost not lead
Thy servants now below,
Thy Holy Spirit, when they need,
Will show them how to go. A-men.
3 As yet we know thee but in part,
But still we trust thy word
That blessèd are the pure in heart,
For they shall see the Lord.
4 O Saviour, give us then thy grace
To make us pure in heart,
That we may see thee, face to face,
Hereafter as thou art.
Amen.

We own thy pow'r to save,

When by his sacred blood
Confirmed and sealed for evermore
Th'eternal covenant stood.
3 O may thy Spirit seal our souls,
And mould them to thy will,
That our weak hearts no more may stray,
But keep thy cov'nant still;
4 That all we think and all we do
Be pleasing in thy sight,
Through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise
In endless glory bright.

and all the hosts of heaven.

let us thine influence prove;
source of the old prophetic fire,
fountain of life and love.

thy prophets wrote and spoke -
unlock the truth, thyself the key,
unseal the sacred book.
3 Expand thy wings, celestial Dove,
brood o'er our nature's night;
on our disordered spirits move,
and let there now be light.

if thou within us shine;

the depths of love divine. Topics: Year A Baptism of Christ; Year A Second Sunday Before Lent; Year A Pentecost; Year B Baptism of Christ; Year C Baptism of Christ; Year C Proper 24; Confirmation; Gradual Hymn; Pentecost Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:16 Used With Tune: CREDITON
