O Lord of Life

Author: Washington Gladden Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #157 (1957) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: O Lord of life, to Thee we lift Lyrics: 1 O Lord of life, to Thee we lift Our hearts in praise for those, Thy prophets, who have shown Thy gift Of grace that ever grows, Of truth that spreads from shore to shore, Of wisdom's widening ray, Of light that shineth more and more Unto Thy perfect day. 2 Shine forth, O Light, that we may see, With hearts all unafraid, The meaning and the mystery Of things that Thou hast made. Shine forth, and let the darkling past Beneath Thy beam grow bright, Shine forth, and touch the future vast With Thine untroubled light. 3 Light up Thy Word; the fettered page From killing bondage free. Light up our way; lead forth this age In love's large liberty. O Light of light! within us dwell, Through us Thy radiance pour, That word and life Thy truths may tell, And praise Thee evermore. Amen.

Lyrics: 1 Lift up your heads, you mighty gates! Behold, the King of glory waits. The King of kings is drawing near; The Savior of the world is here. Life and salvation he will bring; Therefore rejoice and gladly sing. To God the Father raise Your joyful songs of praise. 2 The King is born in poverty, His chariot is humility, His kingly crown is holiness, His scepter, pity in distress. The end of all our woe he brings; Therefore the earth is glad and sings. To Christ the Savior raise Your grateful hymns of praise. 3 How blest the land, the city blest, Where Christ the ruler is confessed! O peaceful hearts and happy homes To whom this King in triumph comes! The cloudless sun of joy is he Who comes to set his people free. To God the Spirit raise Your happy shouts of praise. 4 Fling wide the portals of your heart; Make it a temple set apart From earthly use for heaven's employ, Adorned with prayer and love and joy. So shall your Sov'reign enter in And new and nobler life begin. To God alone be praise For word and deed and grace! 5 Redeemer, come! I open wide My heart to you; here, Lord, abide! Oh, enter with your saving grace; Show me your kind and friendly face. Your Holy Spirit guide us on Until our glorious goal is won. Eternal praise and fame We offer to your name.

Hail, in the time appointed, His reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, To set the captive free, To take away transgression, And rule in equity. 2 He comes with succour speedy To those who suffer wrong, To help the poor and needy And bid the weak be strong. To give them songs for sighing, Their darkness turn to light Whose souls, condemned and dying, Are precious in His sight. 3 He shall come down like showers, Upon the fruitful earth, And joy and hope, like flowers, Spring in His path to birth. Before Him on the mountains Shall peace, the herald, go And righteousness, in fountains, From hill to valley flow. 4 Arabia's desert ranger To Him shall bow the knee, The Ethiopian stranger His glory come to see; With off'rings of devotion Ships from the isles shall meet To pour the wealth of ocean In tribute at His feet. 5 Kings shall bow down before Him And gold and incense bring; All nations shall adore Him, His praise all people sing. To Him shall prayer unceasing And daily vows ascend, His kingdom still increasing, A kingdom without end. 6 O'er every foe victorious, He on His throne shall rest. From age to age more glorious, All-blessing and all-blest. The tide of time shall never His covenant remove; His Name shall stand for ever-- That Name to us is Love.
