He will gather the wheat in his garner

Author: Harriet B. M'Keever Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1320 (1886) Scripture: Luke 3:17 First Line: When Jesus shall gather the nations Lyrics: 1 When Jesus shall gather the nations, Before him at last to appear, Then how shall we stand in the Judgment, When summoned our sentence to hear? Chorus: He will gather the wheat in his garner, But the chaff will he scatter away; Then how shall we stand in the Judgment Of the great resurrection day? 2 Shall we hear, from the lips of the Saviour, The words "Faithful servant, well done," Or, trembling with fear and with anguish, Be banished away from his throne? [Chorus] 3 He will smile when he looks on his children, And sees on the ransom'd his seal; He will clothe them in heavenly beauty, As low at his footstool they kneel. [Chorus] 4 Then let us be watching and waiting With lamps burning steady and bright; When the Bridegroom shall call to the wedding O may we be ready for flight! [Chorus] 5 Thus living with hearts fixed on heaven, In patience we wait for the time When the days of our pilgrimage ended, We'll bask in the presence divine.

There's a Voice in the Wilderness

Author: James Lewis Milligan (1876-1961) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #106 (1998) Meter: Irregular Scripture: Luke 3:1-18 First Line: There's a voice in the wilderness crying Lyrics: 1 There’s a voice in the wilderness crying, a call from the ways untrod: prepare in the desert a highway, a highway for our God! The valleys shall be exalted, the lofty hills brought low; make straight all the crooked places, where the Lord our God may go! 2 O Zion, give voice to good tidings, ascend to the heights and sing! Proclaim to a desolate people the coming of their King. The works of pride all perish, like flowers they shall decay; the power and pomp of nations shall pass like a dream away. 3 But your word, O God, is faithful, your arm, O Lord, is strong; you stand in the midst of nations, and you will right the wrong. You will feed your flock like a shepherd, and fold the lambs to your breast; in pastures of peace you’ll lead them, and give to the weary rest. 4 There’s a voice in the wilderness crying, a call from the ways untrod: prepare in the desert a highway, a highway for our God! The valleys shall be exalted, the lofty hills brought low; make straight all the crooked places, where the Lord our God may go!

When John Baptized by Jordan's River

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, 1926- Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #239 (2003) Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Scripture: Luke 3:2-17 Lyrics: 1 When John baptized by Jordan's river in faith and hope the people came, that John and Jordan might deliver their troubled souls from sin and shame. They came to seek a new beginning, the human spirit's ageless quest, repentance and an end of sinning, renouncing every wrong confessed. 2 There as the Lord, baptized and praying, rose from the stream the sinless One, a voice was heard from heaven saying, "This is my own beloved Son." There as the Father's word was spoken, not in the power of wind and flame, but of his love and peace the token, seen as a dove, the Spirit came. 3 O Son of Man, our nature sharing, in whose obedience all are blest, Saviour, our sins and sorrows bearing, hear us and grant us this request: daily to grow, by grace defended, filled with the Spirit from above; in Christ baptized, beloved, befriended, children of God in peace and love.
