Rejoice, rejoice, believers!

Author: Mrs. Findlater; L. Laurenti Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #43 (1894) Meter: 7.6 D 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! pray, and watch, and wrestle! At midnight comes the cry. 2 See that your lights are burning; Replenish them with oil; Look now for your salvation, The end of sin and toil. The watchers on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near, Go meet Him as He cometh, With alleluias clear. 3 O wise and holy virgins, Now raise your voices higher, Until in songs of triumph Ye meet the angel choir. The marriage-feast is waiting, The gates wide open stand; Up, up, ye heirs of glory! The Bridegroom is at hand. 4 Our hope and expectation, O Jesu, now appear; Arise, Thou Sun so longed for, O'er this benighted sphere! With hearts and hands uplifted, We plead, O Lord, to see The days of earth's redemption, And ever be with Thee. Amen.

The world is very evil

Author: Bernard of Cluny; Rev. J. M. Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #405b (1894) Meter: 7.6 D Lyrics: 1 The world is very evil; The times are waxing late: Be sober and keep vigil, The Judge is at the gate; The Judge Who comes in mercy, The Judge Who comes with might, To terminate the evil, To diadem the right. 2 Arise, arise, good Christian, Let right to wrong succeed; Let penitential sorrow To heavenly gladness lead; To the home of fadeless splendor, Of flowers that bear no thorn, Where they shall dwell as children Who here as exiles mourn; 3 'Mid power that knows no limit, And wisdom free from bound, Where rests a peace untroubled, Peace holy and profound. O happy, holy portion, Refection for the blest, True vision of true beauty, Sweet cure for all distrest. 4 Thou hast no shore fair ocean! Thou hast no time, bright day! Dear fountain of refreshment To pilgrims far away! Strive, man, to win that glory; Toil, man, to gain that light; Send hope before to grasp it, Till hope be lost in sight. Amen.

It floateth like a banner Before God's host unfurled; It shineth like a beacon Above the darkling world; It is the chart and compass That o'er life's surging sea, 'Mid mists, and rocks, and quicksands Still guides, O Christ, to thee. 4. O make thy Church, dear Saviour, A lamp of burnished gold, To bear among the nations Thy true light as of old! O teach thy wandering pilgrims By this their path to trace, Till, clouds and darkness ended, They see thee face to face! Languages: English Tune Title: MUNICH

There where the judges gather

Author: Henry Zylstra, 1909-1956 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #51 (1997) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 There where the judges gather, a greater takes the seat; "How long," God asks the judges, "will you pronounce deceit? How long show special favour to those of ill repute? How long neglect the orphan, the poor and destitute? 2 Deal justly with the needy; protect the powerless; deliver the afflicted from those who would oppress, but you are surely blinded; you do not understand; therefore foundations totter; injustice rocks the land." 3 God speaks: "I named you rulers, to serve the Most High God, but you shall die as mortals and perish by my rod." Arise, O God, in judgement, your sovereignty make known, for yours are all the nations; the peoples are your own.
