The Golden Gates Are Lifted Up

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1956 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. The golden gates are lifted up, The doors are opened wide; The King of Glory is gone in Unto His Father’s side. 2. Thou art gone up before us, Lord, To make for us a place, That we may be where now Thou art, And look upon God’s face. 3. And ever on our earthly path A gleam of glory lies, A light still breaks behind the cloud That veiled Thee from our eyes. 4. Lift up our hearts, lift up our minds: Let Thy dear grace be giv’n; That, while we wander here below, Our treasure be in Heav’n. 5. That where Thou art, at God’s right hand, Our hope, our love, may be: Dwell Thou in us, that we may dwell Forevermore in Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: MIRFIELD

I Hate the Tempter and His Charms

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2804 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. I hate the tempter and his charms, I hate his flattering breath; The serpent takes a thousand forms To cheat our souls to death. 2. He feeds our hope with airy dreams Or kills with slavish fear; And holds us still in wide extremes, Presumption or despair. 3. Now he persuades, How easy ’tis To walk the road to Heav’n; Anon he swells our sins, and cries, They cannot be forgiv’n. 4. He bids young sinners, Yet forbear To think of God, or death; For prayer and devotion are But melancholy breath. 5. He tells the aged, they must die, And ’tis too late to pray; In vain for mercy now they cry, For they have lost their day. 6. Thus he supports his cruel throne By mischief and deceit, And drags the sons of Adam down To darkness and the pit. 7. Almighty God, cut short his power; Let him in darkness dwell; And that he vex the earth no more, Confine him down to hell. Languages: English Tune Title: MIRFIELD
