The Morn in Beauty Breaks

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: The morn in beauty breaks, The world to life awakes, Up, soul of mine and sing; And let the day begun, In hours of service run, And joy to duty bring. The darkness fades away, Light ushers in the day,-- Let there be light for me! That round my path no cloud Dark folding may enshroud, Me in perplexity. To Father and to Son, To Spirit, Three in One, Eternal praise be given: Sung by the saints above, In songs of fervent love, Up in the choirs of heaven.

Hymn to the Trinity

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 6.6.8.8.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: This is the time of song Lyrics: This is the time of song, The hour when prayer is made, And fervently we cry to Thee O Undivided Trinity;-- Holy, Holy, Holy Thou, God of Hosts to Whom we bow. Even as the Heavenly hosts,-- But with unworthy lips,-- Eternal Trinity most strong, To Thee we raise victorious song, And falling down before Thee now, Sing Holy, Holy, Holy Thou. Thou Who wast born on earth, But still with God remained, Accept us Christ our God we pray, As with angelic hosts we say, Holy, Holy, Holy Thou, With Thy mercy bless us now.

Close Beside the Heart that Loves Me

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: Close beside the heart that loves me Would I rest in sorrow's hour, With a Father's smile above me, And beneath an arm of power. Weak and worthless, worn and weary, Welcome bids my faith be strong; Sorrow's hour is short if dreary, Joy shall last through ages long. Dark the hour, but comes the morrow, Dawn shall waken by and by; Light shall gild the clouds of sorrow, When the sun is in the sky. Rest, my soul, that love unfailing Strengthens in the hour of woe,-- For the pain thy life assailing Found Him when he dwelt below. 'Tis a heart that knows the sorrow, Trust it when the night comes down;-- Tears shall yield to song to-morrow, Night to morn, and cross to crown.

The Time Shall Surely Come

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: The time shall surely come, The hour is drawing near, When in the clouds of heaven the Lord To mortals shall appear. Not in a lowly garb, Shall we the Lord descry, But decked in glory like the sun, That lights the morning sky. Not as in former days, To pain and suffering sore,-- He comes to judge, Who came to save,-- To reign for evermore. Then, O my soul, awake! Put on thy garb of light, Look for the dawn that brings the day, All glorious and bright. Wait, for the hour is nigh; Watch, for His coming nears; Be thou the faithful servant then, When He, thy Lord, appears.

Who is it wears the thorn crown Upon His wounded head? Who is it dies to set us free? The Holy One of Israel He. Glory we give with one accord To Thy blest Resurrection, Lord. O people disobedient, With shame your Saviour see; For, He you called to judgment, And nailed upon the tree, Hath burst the bands that would enslave, And risen a victor from the grave. Glory we give with one accord, To Thy blest Resurrection, Lord. Text Sources: Parakletike, p. 7

O Most High, Whom heaven adores, Thou wast born to us in weakness, Bore the scourging and the wounds, Died upon the Cross in meekness;-- Now o'er death we rise victorious, By the power of God most glorious.

Troparia (from the Canon of the Resurrection): Ode VII

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 7.8.7.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Word of God, Who by Thy will Lyrics: Word of God, Who by Thy will Madest all things as we see them; By Thy glorious Passion, Thou, From the shade of death didst free them. We would join the glad refrain, Ceaseless sung by all creation, To the praise of Him whose works Wake our souls to adoration. Shattered now the bars of death, Hades' gates are burst asunder, For the Word of life arose While creation gazed in wonder. To Thy Name eternal praise Every heart and voice engages; All Thy works exalt Thy Name, Through the endless course of ages. Text Sources: Parakletike, p. 9

For Christ the Lord hath risen, And death by death is slain, The silent dwellers in the tomb Are called to life again. Text Sources: Pentecostarion, p. 5

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: When with Powers of heaven attending Lyrics: When with Powers of heaven attending, Angel hosts ten thousand strong, Christ the Lord to earth descending, Brings the hour expected long; Rising to the clouds in air, Give us grace to meet Thee there.
