Lo! he cometh! countless trumpets

Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 157 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lo! He cometh! countless trumpetsBlow before his bloody sign,Midst ten thousand saints and angels,See the crucified shine.Hallelujah!Welcome, welcome bleeding Lamb!2. Now his merit by the harpers,Through the eternal deep resounds!Now resplendent shine his nail prints,Every eye shall see the wounds;They who pierced himShall at his appearing wail.3. Every island, sea, and mountain,Heaven and earth shall flee away!All who hate him must, ashamed,Hear the trump proclaim the day:Come to judgment,Stand before the Son of man.4. Saints, who love him, view his glory,Shining in his bruised face:See him seated on the rainbow,Now his people's head shall raise:Happy mourners!Now on clouds he comes! he comes!5. Now redemption, long expected,See, in solemn pomp appear:All his people, once rejected,Now shall meet him in the air:Hallelujah!Now the promised kingdom's come!6.View him smiling – now determinedEvery evil to destroy;All the nations now shall sing himSongs of everlasting joy.O, come quickly!Hallelujah! come Lord, come!

Bathurst Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Darkness long hath veiled the nations, And a guilty world appears Full of cruel habitations, Strife and hatred, groans and tears; Lord of mercy, May we look for brighter years? 2 Yes, we hear Thy word declaring That all hearts shall bow to Thee; That Thy mercy is preparing To fulfill the high decree; And that shortly Satan’s captives shall be free. 3 Savior, though by man rejected, Pity our apostate race; Let those years, so long expected, Rich with Heaven’s unbounded grace, Soon refresh us With the brightness of Thy face. 4 Rouse the heathen from their slumbers, With a loud awakening call; Bring them in increasing numbers Humbly at Thy feet to fall; Reign amongst us, Honored, loved, and served by all Used With Tune: BENEDICTION Text Sources: Psalms and Hymns, 1831

Holy Father, great Creator

Author: Alexander V. Griswold Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 61 hymnals Lyrics: Holy Father, great Creator, Source of mercy, love, and peace, Look upon the Mediator, Clothe us with his righteousness; Heavenly Father, Through the Savior hear and bless. Holy Jesus, Lord of glory, Whom angelic hosts proclaim, While we hear thy wondrous story, Meet and worship in thy Name, Dear Redeemer, In our hearts thy peace proclaim. Holy Spirit, Sanctifier, Come with unction from above, Raise our hearts to raptures higher, Should threaten to undo us; We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us: The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him; His rage we can endure, For lo! his doom is sure, One little word shall fell him. That word above all earthly powers, No thanks to them, abideth; The Spirit and the gifts are ours Through him who with us sideth: Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also; The body they may kill: God's truth abideth still, His kingdom is for ever.
