Author: Anonymous; William B. Collyer; Thomas Cotterill Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #321 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 First Line: Great God, what do I see and hear Lyrics: 1 Great God, what do I see and hear! The end of things created! The Judge of mankind doth appear on clouds of glory seated! The trumpet sounds; the graves restore the dead which they contained before: prepare, my soul, to meet him. 2 The dead in Christ shall first arise, at the last trumpet's sounding, caught up to meet him in the skies, with joy their Lord surrounding; no gloomy fears their souls dismay; his presence sheds eternal day on those prepared to meet him. 3 But sinners, filled with guilty fears, behold his wrath prevailing; for they shall rise, and find their tears and sighs are unavailing: the day of grace is past and gone; trembling they stand before the throne, all unprepared to meet him. 4 Great God, what do I see and hear! The end of things created! The Judge of mankind doth appear on clouds of glory seated! Beneath his cross I view the day when heav'n and earth shall pass away, and thus prepare to meet him.

The Day Is Surely Drawing Near

Author: Bartholomaeus Ringwalt Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #321 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 The day is surely drawing near When Christ, the Lord's Anointed, In might and glory shall appear, As Judge of all appointed. The time of mirth shall then expire, When all shall be consumed by fire, As Holy Scripture tells us. 2 The trump of God shall then resound, And all the earth be shaken; The dead who in thegraves are found Shall then to life awaken, And all who faithful here abide Shall be transformed and glorified By Christ's almighty working. 3 The Judge shall then a scroll unfold, His records truly telling What all have done, both young and old, While in the body dwelling. All secrets then shall be disclosed And ev'ry hidden thought exposed That was conceived in darkness. 4 Then woe to all who scorned the Lord And sought but carnal pleasures, Who loathed to hear His holy Word, Enthralled by earthly treasures. They shall not in the judgment stand, But at the righteous King's command With Satan have their portion. 5 Lord Jesus, Victor in the strife, For my transgressions smitten, O grant that in the book of life My name be also written. Nor will I doubt that I am free From Satan's rule, O Lord, thro' Thee, The Source of our salvation. Topics: The Christian Life Judgment Languages: English Tune Title: MONMOUTH

The Day Is Surely Drawing Near

Author: Philip A. Peter, 1832-1917; Bartholomäus Ringwaldt, 1532-c. 1600 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #321 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 The day is surely drawing near When Jesus, God's anointed, In all his power shall appear As judge whom God appointed. Then fright shall banish idle mirth, And hungry flames shall ravage earth, As Scripture long has warned us. 2 The final trumpet then shall sound, And all the earth be shaken, And all who rest beneath the ground Shall from their sleep awaken. But all who live will in that hour, By God's almighty, boundless pow'r, Be changed at his commanding. 3 May Christ our intercessor be And, through his blood and merit, Read from his book that we are free With all who life inherit. Then we shall see him face to face, With all his saints in that blest place Which he has purchased for us. 4 O Jesus Christ, do not delay, But hasten our salvation; We often tremble on our way In fear and tribulation. Oh, hear and grant our fervent plea; Come, mighty judge, and set us free From death and ev'ry evil.

I would with heav'nly food be fed; Descend, refresh, and bless me. Now make me meet for Thee, O Lord; Now, humbly by my heart implored, Grant me Thy grace and mercy. 2 Thou me to pastures green dost guide, To quiet waters lead me; Thy Table Thou dost well provide And from Thy hand dost feed me. Sin, weakness, and infirmity Am I; O Savior, give to me The cup of Thy salvation. 3 O Bread of Heav'n, my soul's Delight, For full and free remission With prayer I come before Thy sight, In sorrow and contrition. With faith adorn my soul that I May to Thy table now draw nigh With Thine own preparation. 4 I merit not Thy favor, Lord, Sin now upon me lieth; Beneath my burden, self-abhorred, To Thee my spirit crieth. In all my grief this comforts me, That Thou on sinners graciously, Lord Jesus, hast compassion. Languages: English Tune Title: HERR, WIE DU WILLST

From Depths of Woe I Cry to Thee

Author: Catherine Winkworth; Martin Luther Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #329 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 From depths of woe I cry to Thee, Lord, hear me, I implore Thee. Bend down Thy gracious ear to me, My prayer let come before Thee. If Thou rememb'rest each misdeed, If each should have its rightful meed, Who may abide Thy presence? 2 Thy love and grace alone avail To blot out my transgression; The best and holiest deeds must fail To break sin's dread oppression. Before Thee none can boasting stand, But all must fear Thy strict demand And live alone by mercy. 3 Therefore my hope is in the Lord And not in mine own merit; It rests upon His faithful Word To them of contrite spirit That He is merciful and just; This is my comfort and my trust. His help I wait with patience. 4 And though it tarry till the night And till the morning waken, My heart shall never doubt His might Nor count itself forsaken. Do thus, O ye of Israel's seed, Ye of the Spirit born indeed; Wait for your God's appearing. 5 Though great our time and sore or woes, His grace much more aboundeth; His helping love no limit knows, Our utmost need it soundeth. Our Shepherd good and true is He, Who will at last His Israel free From all their sin and sorrow. Amen.

Of the Father's heart begotten

Author: Aurelius Clemens Prudentius, 348-c.413; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866; Henry Williams Baker, 1821-1877 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #329 (2004) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Of the Father's heart begotten, when no world had come to be, He is Alpha and Omega, He the source, the ending He, of the things that are, that have been, and that future years shall see: evermore and evermore. 2 By His word was all created; He commanded; it was done: earth and sky and boundless ocean in their threefold order one; all that sees the moon's soft radiance, all that breathes beneath the sun: evermore and evermore. 3 Happy is that day for ever when the Virgin, filled with grace, by the Spirit's power conceiving bore the Saviour of our race; and the Babe, the world's Redeemer, first revealed His sacred face: evermore and evermore. 4 This is He whom priests and poets sang of old with one accord; whom the voices of the prophets promised in their faithful word; now He shines, the long-expected; let creation praise its Lord: evermore and evermore. 5 Praise Him, all you hosts of heaven, praise Him, angels in the height; powers, dominions, bow before Him, and extol His glorious might; let no tongue on earth be silent, let each heart and voice unite: evermore and evermore.

The Day is Surely Drawing Near

Author: Bartholomäus Ringwaldt, 1532-1599 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #330 (1901) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 The day is surely drawing near, When He, the Lord's Anointed, Will with great majesty appear, As judge of all appointed. All mirth and laughter then shall cease, When flames on flames will still increase, As the Apostle teacheth. 2 A trumpet loud shall then resound, And all the earth be shaken; Then all who in their graves are found Shall from their sleep awaken. But all that live shall in that hour, By the Almighty’s boundless power, Be at His word be changéd. 3 Then woe to those who scorned the Lord, And sought but carnal pleasures, Who here despised His precious Word, And loved their earthly treasures, With shame and trembling they will stand, And at the Judge's stern command Must leave the Lord forever. 4 Oh, may my name, dear Lord, be found, Free from all condemnation, For Thy death's sake, Thy pains and wounds, In Thy book of salvation. I will not doubt;--I trust in Thee;-- From Satan Thou hast made me free, And from all condemnation. 5 Therefore, my Intercessor be, And for Thy death and merit Declare my name from judgment free, With all who life inherit; That with my brethren I may stand With Thee in heaven, our fatherland, Which Thou for us hast purchased. 6 Lord Jesus Christ, do not delay, Oh, hasten our salvation! We often tremble on our way, In fear and tribulation. Then hear us when we cry to Thee; Come, mighty Judge, come, make us free From every evil. Amen!
