We sing the glorious conquest

Author: John Ellerton Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We sing the glorious conquest Before Damascus gate, When Saul, the church's spoiler, Came breathing threats and hate; The rav'ning wolf rushed forward Full early to the prey; But lo! the Shepherd met him, And bound him fast today. 2 O glory most excelling That smote across his path! O light that pierced and blinded The zealot in his wrath! O voice that spake unto him The calm, reproving word! O love that sought and held him The bondman of his Lord! 3 O Wisdom ord'ring all things In order strong and sweet, What nobler spoil was ever Cast at the victor's feet? What wiser master-builder E'er wrought at thine employ Than he, til now so furious Thy building to destroy? 4 Lord, teach thy church the lesson, Still in her darkest hour Of weakness and of danger, To trust thy hidden pow'r: Thy grace by ways mysterious The wrath of man can bind, And in thy boldest foe-man Thy chosen saint can find. Amen. Topics: Calling; Christian Life Calling; Faith In Christ; God Love and Grace of; Grace Sovereign ; Holy Spirit Efficacious Grace of; Zeal Scripture: Acts 9:1-7 Used With Tune: MUNICH

Now Is the Time Approaching

Let war be learned no longer, let strife and tumult cease, all earth a blessed garden that God shall tend in peace. 2 Let all that now devides us remove and bass away, like mists of early morning before the blaze of day. Let all that now unites us more sweet and lasting prove, a closer bond of union, in blessed lands of love. 3 O long-expected dawning, come with your cheering ray! Yet shall the promise beckon and lead us not astray. O sweet anticipation! It cheers the watchers on to pray, and hope, and labor till Christ's new realm is come.

A Light Came Out of Darkness

Author: William A. Hawley Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1. A light came out of darkness; No light, no hope had we, Till Jesus came from Heaven Our light and hope to be. Oh, as I read the story From birth to dying cry, A longing fills my bosom To meet Him by and by. 2. How tender His compassion How loving was His call, How earnest His entreaty To sinners, one and all. He wooed, and won them to Him By love, and that is why I long to be like Jesus, And meet Him by and by. 3. Yet deeper do I ponder, His cross and sorrow see, And ever gaze and wonder Why Jesus died for me. And shall I fear to own Him? Can I my Lord deny? No! let me love Him, serve Him, And meet Him by and by. Used With Tune: EWING Text Sources: The Musical Salvationist, October 1901

Be Ready, All

Author: H. R. Jeffrey Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: In the awful day that’s coming Lyrics: 1 In the awful day that’s coming, When Heaven’s trump shall sound, And call the world to judgment, Oh, where shall we be found? Shall we cry for rocks and mountains To hide us in that day, From Him who comes in glory, With all His bright array? 2 The Lord is coming shortly, According to His word, Taking vengeance on the wicked, And them that know not God: Oh, who shall then be able In that awful day to stand? Thou shalt be no longer steward, Will be the stern command. 3 Shall we begin to tremble, While looking on that sight, And take our march in anguish, Down to eternal night? Oh, what an awful picture! To some it will come true; And oh, my brother, sister, Shall it be I or you? 4 Oh, souls, be up and doing, We have no time to lose; There’s life and death before us— Oh, which one will you choose? Then let us all take warning, And heed the Savior’s call, Be robed in white adorning, Then we’ll be ready, all. Used With Tune: STOCK ISLAND Text Sources: Songs of Victory by Joseph C.
