Hills of the North, rejoice

Author: Charles Edward Oakley, 1832 - 65 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #321 (1958) Person Name: Charles Edward Oakley, 1832 - 65 Lyrics: 1 Hills of the North, rejoice; River and mountain-spring, Hark to the advent voice! Valley and lowland, sing! Though absent long, your Lord is nigh; He judgment brings, and victory. 2 Isles of the southern seas, Deep in your coral caves Pent be each warring breeze, Lulled be your restless waves; He comes to reign with boundless sway, And makes your wastes his great highway. 3 Lands of the East, awake! Soon shall your sons be free; The sleep of ages break, And rise to liberty. On your far hills, long cold and grey, Has dawned the everlasting day. 4 Shores of the utmost West, Ye that have waited long, Unvisited, unblest, Break forth to swelling song; High raise the note, that Jesus died, Yet lives and reigns, the Crucified. 5 Shout, while ye journey home! Songs be in every mouth! Lo, from the North we come, From East, and West, and South: City of God, the bond are free, We come to live and reign in thee!

Nothing else my joy can be.

O, that warning cry obey! Now prepare for God a way; Let the valleys rise to meet him, And the hills bow down to greet him. 3 Make ye straight what long was crooked, Make the rougher places plain; Let your hearts be true and humble, As befits his holy reign; For the glory of the Lord Now o'er earth is shed abroad, And all flesh shall see the token That his word is never broken.

Oliver, 1800 - 85 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be, A mortal man ashamed of thee? Ashamed of thee, whom angels praise, Whose glories shine through endless days? 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far Let evening blush to own a star; He sheds the beams of light divine O'er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heaven depend! No; when I blush, be this my shame, That I no more revere his Name. 4 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may When I've no guilt to wash away; No tear to wipe, no good to crave, No fear to quell, no soul to save. 5 Till then, nor is my boasting vain, Till then I boast a Saviour slain; And O may this my glory be, That Christ is not ashamed of me.

The watery deep we pass, With Jesus in our view; And through the howling wilderness Our way pursue. A-men. 3 The goodly land we see With peace and plenty blest; A land of sacred liberty And endless rest; There milk and honey flow, And oil and wine abound, And trees of life for ever grow, With mercy crowned. 4 There dwells the Lord our King, The Lord our Righteousness, Triumphant o'er the world and sin, The Prince of Peace; On Zion's sacred height His kingdom He maintains, And glorious with his saints in light For ever reigns. 5 Before the great Three-One They all exulting stand, And tell the wonders he hath done Through all their land; The listening spheres attend And swell the growing frame, And sing, in songs which never end, The wondrous Name. 6 The God who reigns on high The great archangels sing, And, 'Holy, holy, holy,' cry, 'Almighty King, Who was, and is, the same, And evermore shall be: Eternal Father, great I AM, We worship thee.' 7 Before the Saviour's face The ransomed nations bow, O'erwhelmed at his almighty grace, Forever new; He shows his prints of love: They kindle to a flame, And sound through all the worlds above, 'Worthy the Lamb.' 8 The whole triumphant host Give thanks to God on high; 'Hail, Father, Son and Holy Ghost!' They ever cry; Hail, Abraham's God, and mine! I join the heavenly lays. All might and majesty are thine, And endless praise! Amen.

Young and old their voices blending, Praise are sending Unto heaven For the Saviour to us given. 2 Like other men, he tears will shed, Our sorrows share, and be our aid, Through his eternal power, The love of God on us bestow, And mingle in our cup of woe The drops of mercy’s shower; Dearly buying through his passion Our salvation, And to mortals Opening the heavenly portals. 3 He comes, for our redemption sent, And by his glory heaven is rent To close upon us never; Our blessèd Shepherd he would be, Whom we may follow faithfully To live with him forever, Unto realms of glory winging, Praises singing To the Father And the Son, and Spirit, ever.
