When the overwhelming waters

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #235 (1854) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: When the overwhelming waters Once a world of sinners drown'd, Eight of Adam's sons and daughters, In the Ark salvation found: Gather'd to the Church, may we Thus from wrath and peril flee. When the fire from God descended On the cities of the plain, Three alone, by Heaven befriended, Refuge did in Zoar gain: By our pastors led, may we Thus escape to Calvary. When the midnight angel number'd Egypt's first-born with the dead, Israel's tribes, unsmitten slumber'd, Where the paschal lamb had bled: By the blood of sprinkling, we Thus from vengeance are made free. When, while quick and dead assemble, Flames this universe destroy, Though the wicked quake and tremble, Saints shall lift their heads with joy: Raised to life, like them, may we With the Lord for ever be.

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns to the Living God #236 (2023) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David’s city stood a lowly cattle shed, where a mother laid her baby in a manger for His bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little Child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all, and His shelter was a stable, and His cradle was a stall: with the poor, and meek, and lowly, lived on earth our Savior holy. 3 And our eyes at last shall see Him, through His own redeeming love; for that Child so dear and gentle is our Lord in heav'n above, and He leads His children on to the place where He is gone. 4 Not in that poor lowly stable, with the oxen standing by, we shall see Him, but in heaven, set at God’s right hand on high; when like stars His children crowned all in white shall wait around.

Thou to Whom the Sick and Dying

Author: G. Thring, 1823-1903 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #237 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Thou to whom the sick and dying Ever came, nor came in vain, Still with healing word replying To the wearied cry of pain; Hear us, Jesus, as we meet Suppliants at Thy mercy-seat. 2 Still the weary, sick and dying Need a brother's, sister's care, On Thy higher help relying May we now their burden share, Bringing all our off'rings meet Suppliants at thy mercy-seat. 3 May each child of Thine be willing, Willing both in hand and heart, All the law of love fulfilling, Comfort ever to impart, Ever bringing off'rings meet Suppliant to Thy mercy-seat. 4 So may sickness, sin and sadness To Thy healing virtue yield, Till the sick and sad, in gladness, Rescued, ransomed, cleansèd, healed, One in Thee together meet, Pardoned at thy judgment-seat.

Hark! ten thousand harps and voices

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #238 (1918) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Hark! ten thousand harps and voices Sound the note of praise above; Jesus reigns, and Heav'n rejoices,-- Jesus reigns, the God of love. See, He sits on yonder throne: Jesus rules the world alone. 2 Christians, come, unite your praises With the angels round His throne; Soon, we hope, our God will raise us To the place where He is gone. Meet it is that we should sing, "Glory, glory, to our King!" 3 Sing how Jesus came from heaven, How He bore the cross below, How all power to Him is given, How He reigns in glory now; ’Tis a great and endless theme, O ’tis sweet to sing of Him! 4 Jesus, hail! whose glory brightens All above, and makes it fair: Lord of Life, Thy smile enlightens, Cheers and charms Thy people here. When we think of love like Thine, Lord, we own it love divine. 5 King of glory, reign forever, Thine an everlasting crown; Nothing from Thy love shall sever Those whom Thou hast made Thine own, Happy objects of Thy grace, Destined to behold Thy face. 6 Savior, hasten Thine appearing; Bring, O bring the glorious day When, the awful summons hearing, Heaven and earth shall pass away; Then, with golden harps, we'll sing, "Glory, glory, to our King!"

Who are these like stars appearing

Author: Frances E. Cox; Heinrich Theobald Schenk Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #245 (1917) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Who are these like stars appearing, These, before God's throne who stand? Each a golden crown is wearing; Who are all this glorious band? Alleluia! hark, they sing, Praising loud their heavenly King. 2 These are they who have contended For their Saviour's honor long, Wrestling on till life was ended, Following not the sinful throng; These, who well the fight sustained, Triumph through the Lamb have gained. 3 These are they whose hearts were riven, Sore with woe and anguish tried, Who in prayer full oft have striven With the God they glorified; Now, their painful conflict o'er, God has bid them weep no more. 4 These, as priests, have watched and waited, Offering up to Christ their will, Soul and body consecrated, Day and night to serve him still: Now, in God's most holy place, Blest they stand before His face. Amen. Topics: The Church The Church Triumphant Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS
