He claims those mansions as his right, 4 "Who is the King of glory, who?" HYMN 18. Second Part. L, M. Forerunner. FAR, far beyond these lower skies, Up to the glories all his own, Where we by faith lift up our eyes, There Jesus, our Forerunner's, gone. 2 Amidst the shining hosts above, Where his blest smile new pleasure gives, Where all is wonder, joy, and love; There Jesus, our Forerunner, lives. 3 Before his heav'nly Father's face, For ev'ry saint he intercedes; And with infallible success, There Jesus, our Forerunner, pleads. 4 We shall, when we in heav'n appear, His praises sing, his wonders tell ; And with our great Forerunner there, For ever and for ever dwell. 27 1 HYMN 18. Third Part. L. M. W Thou still art present with thine own. The same hath been-the same shall be; While stars and suns wax old, and fade. 4 The same his pow'r his flock to guard; The same his bounty to reward: The same his faithfulness and love, 1 JE HYMN 19. First Part. L. M. He sitteth at the right hand of God. His meanest servants share their part, 4 Raise, raise, my soul, thy raptur'd sight 1 J HYMN 19. Second Part. C. M. ESUS, we sing thy matchless grace, 2 Allied to thee our vital head We live, and grow, and thrive : 3 Thy saints on earth, and those above, And thou, our common Lord. 4 May faith from thee each hour derive While death and hell in vain shall strive 5 Thou the whole body wilt present 1 Nor shall a wrinkle or a spot HYMN 19. Third Part. L. M. Christ will come to judge the world. TOW to the Lord that made us know 2 'Twas he that cleans'd our foulest sins, HYMN 19. Fourth Part. P. M. DA AY of judgment, day of wonders! Hark! the trumpet's awful sound, Louder than a thousand thunders, Shakes the vast creation round. How the summons Will the sinner's heart confound! 2 See the judge our nature wearing, Cloth'd in majesty divine! You who long for his appearing, Then shall say, "This God is mine! "Gracious Saviour, "Own me in that day for thine !” 3 At his call, the dead awaken, Rise to life from earth and sea : Careless sinner, What will then become of thee? 4 Horrors past imagination, Will surprise your trembling heart, When you hear your condemnation, "Hence, accursed wretch, depart! "Thou with Satan "And his angels, have thy part!" 5 But to those who have confessed, ; Lov'd and serv'd the Lord, below "Shall my love and glory know." 6 Under sorrows and reproaches, May this thought our courage raise ! Swiftly God's great day approaches, Sighs shall then be chang'd to praise : May we triumph When the world is in a blaze. HYMN 19. Fifth Part. P. M. 1 LO! he cometh! countless trumpets Hallelujah, Welcome, welcome, Son of God. Shall at his appearance wail. |
