Author: Laurentius Laurenti; Sarah B. Findlater Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 335 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, believers, and let your lights appear! The evening is advancing, and darker night is near. The Bridegroom is arising and soon he will draw nigh; up, watch in expectation! At midnight comes the cry. 2 See that your lamps are burning, replenish them with oil; and wait for your salvation, the end of earthly toil. The watchers on the mountain proclaim the Bridegroom near; meet him as he approaches, with alleluias clear. 3 You saints, who here in patience your cross and suff'rings bore, shall live and reign forever, when sorrow is no more: around the throne of glory the Lamb you shall behold, in triumph cast before him your alleluias clear. 4 Our hope and expectation, O Jesus, now appear; arise, O Sun so longed for, above the darkened sphere. With hearts and hands uplifted, we plead, O Lord, to see the day of earth's redemption that sets your people free!

O Hear Them Marching, Marching

Author: Marion F. Ham, 1867-1956 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O hear them marching, marching, The legions of good will, The men of peace who seek not To bomb and maim and kill; They march not to their conquest With battle flags unfurled; But with their gentle spirit They shall subdue the world. 2. Through all the bloodstained ages Their numbers have increased, The spirit struggling upward To overcome the beast; The meek who shall inherit And rule the warring earth, With patient faith are bringing The new regime to birth. 3. The men of war oppose them, And seek to bar the way, The powers of darkness striving To thwart the coming day; But, led by unseen forces, Their hosts are marching still, To build for future ages The kingdom of good will. 4. A mighty captain leads them, The valiant Prince of Peace; They shall possess the future, And ancient wrongs shall cease; O men of good will, marching To bloodless victory, We join your hosts in building The kingdom that shall be.
