Hark, a Thrilling Voice is Sounding

Author: Edward Caswall Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 133 hymnals First Line: Hark, a thrilling voice is sounding! Lyrics: 1 Hark, a thrilling voice is sounding! "Christ is nigh!" we hear it say; "Cast away the works of darkness, O ye children of the day!" 2 Startled at the solemn warning, Let the earth-bound soul arise; Christ, her Sun, all sloth dispelling, Shines upon the morning skies. 3 Lo, the Lamb, so long expected, Comes with pardon down from heaven. Let us haste, with tears of sorrow, One and all, to be forgiven. 4 That, when next He comes with glory And the world is wrapped in fear He may shield us with His mercy And with words of love draw near. 5 Honor, glory, might, dominion To the Father and the Son, With the everlasting Spirit While eternal ages run! Amen. Topics: The Church Year Advent Scripture: Romans 13:11 Used With Tune: O DER ALLES Text Sources: Latin, c. 900

Ĉiopova, Sankta Vorto, Lin mi amas kun fervoro. 4. Ankaŭ, Sanktan Eklezion Mi respektas, pro Jesuo. Ŝi instruos, ĝis en Cion Li mem estos mia ĝuo. 5. Ho adoru, terloĝanto, Kun anĝeloj ĉe l' zenito Nun al Dio, la Kreanto, Patro, Filo, kaj Spirito. Topics: Confession of Faith; Baptismal Confession Used With Tune: STAFFORD Text Sources: EH 96

Scarce Discerning Aught Before Us

Author: George H. Bourne Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Scarce discerning aught before us, On our weary way we go; But one guiding Star is o’er us, Beaming forth the way to show. 2 Watch we, pray we, let us sink not Journeying on while yet we can; At a moment when we think not Shall we meet the Son of Man. 3 See! e’en now the east is brightening; See! the cloud of gloom is riven; See! a flash more swift than lightning Gleaming all athwart the Heaven. 4 Christ hath come—oh, joy and wonder! Clothed in majesty sublime, Glorious as the Son of Thunder Saw Him in the olden time. 5 Hark, the trumpets’ note is pealing; All the dead it summoneth, Endless life to some revealing, But to some—the second death. 6 Lo! a form earth from ariseth, Pure and lovely, who is she? She it is whom Jesu prizeth, ’Tis the Church, whose spouse is He. 7 See the robes of dazzling brightness That adorn the glorious bride; God hath clothed her in the whiteness Of the saints all purified. 9 Hark! she hails Him: "Thou that savest, Thy salvation draweth nigh; With the children that Thou gavest, Jesu, Bridegroom, here am I." 9 White robed bands of His redeemèd Stand around her by the throne; Sorrowful on earth they seemèd, Now their great reward is shown: 10 For with joy how passing fervent Each doth hear the gracious voice— "Come, thou good and faithful servant, Come, and evermore rejoice."
