The Day Is Fast Approaching

Author: Anonymous Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The day is fast approaching, By prophets long foretold, When all shall dwell together, One Shepherd, and one fold. 2 When every senseless idol Shall to the bats be thrown, And every prayer be offered To God in Christ alone. 3 When Jew and Gentile meeting From many a distant shore Shall, round one altar kneeling, One common Lord adore. 4 When all that now divides us Shall wholly pass away, Like shadows of the morning, Before the blaze of day. 5 When war shall be no longer, And strife and tumult cease, And earth become the kingdom Of Christ, the Prince of Peace. 6 The long expected dawning Breaks with its cheering ray; Already morning brightens, And shadows flee away. 7 O blessèd day of triumph, That cheers the watchers on, To pray, and hope, and labor, Till the dark night be gone. Used With Tune: CARMINA Text Sources: The Church Missionary Juvenile Instructor (London: Seeley, Jackson, & Halliday, 1863)

O Jesus, I have promised

Author: John Ernest Bode, 1816-1874 Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 634 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised to serve thee to the end; be thou for ever near me, my master and my friend; I shall not fear the battle if thou art by my side, nor wander from the pathway, if thou wilt be my guide. 2 O let me feel thee near me: the world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, the tempting sounds I hear; my foes are ever near me, around me and within; but, Jesus, draw thou nearer, and shield my soul from sin. 3 O let me hear thee speaking in accents clear and still, above the storms of passion, the murmurs of self-will; O speak to reassure me, to hasten or control; O speak, and make me listen, thou guardian of my soul. 4 O Jesus, thou hast promised to all who follow thee, that where thou art in glory there shall thy servant be; and, Jesus, I have promised to serve thee to the end: O give me grace to follow, my master and my friend. 5 O let me see thy foot-marks, and in them plant mine own; my hope to follow duly is in thy strength alone; O guide me, call me, draw me, uphold me to the end; and then in heaven receive me, my Saviour and my friend.

There Is A Gentle Gardener

Author: H. Brueckner Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: There is a gentle Gard'ner Lyrics: 1 There is a gentle Gard'ner, Who owns a garden fair, Where countless blooming flowers Enjoy His tender care, Where countless blooming flowers Enjoy His tender care. 2 He grants them radiant sunshine And soft, refreshing rain; Thus nurtured, they must flourish And sweetest fragrance gain, Thus nurtured, they must flourish And sweetest fragrance gain. 3 They fondly love the Gard'ner, And all to Him incline, While with their clinging tendrils They seek Him to entwine, While with their clinging tendrils They seek Him to entwine. 4 And when their day is ended, He takes them to His breast, And heavenward He bears them To regions ever blest, And heavenward He bears them To regions ever blest. 5 There shall those flowers blossom In beauty evermore, Nor cold nor frost shall blight them On that celestial shore. 6 Thou Gard'ner true and gentle, Care for us every day, That we in yonder garden May thrive and bloom for aye.

Author: Henry Francis Lyte Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 131 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O that the Lord's salvation Were out of Zion come, To heal His ancient nation, To lead His outcasts home. 2 How long the holy city Shall heathen feet profane? Return, O Lord, in pity; Rebuild her walls again. 3 Let fall Thy rod of terror, Thy saving grace impart; Roll back the veil of error, Release the fettered heart. 4 Let Israel, home returning, Her lost Messiah see; Give oil of joy for mourning, And bind Thy Church to Thee.

O how shall I receive Thee

Author: Arthur Tozer Russell; Paul Gerhardt Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 95 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O how shall I receive Thee, How greet Thee, Lord, aright? All nations long to see Thee, My Hope, my heart's delight! O kindle, Lord, most holy, Thy lamp within my breast. To do in spirit lowly All that may please Thee best. 2 Thy Zion palms is strewing, And branches fresh and fair; My heart, its powers renewing, An anthem shall prepare. My soul puts off her sadness Thy glories to proclaim; With all her strength and gladness She fain would serve Thy Name. 3 I lay in fetters groaning, Thou comest to set me free! I stood, my shame bemoaning, Thou comest to honor me! A glory Thou dost give me, A treasure safe on high, That will not fail nor leave me As earthly riches fly. 4 Love caused Thine Incarnation, Love brought Thee down to me, Thy thirst for my salvation Procured my liberty. O love beyond all telling, That led Thee to embrace, In love all love excelling, Our lost and fallen race! 5 Rejoice, then, ye sad-hearted, Who sit in deepest gloom, Who mourn o'er joys departed, And tremble at your doom: He Who alone can cheer you Is standing at the door; He brings His pity near you, And bids you weep no more. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Advent Used With Tune: ST. THEODULPH
