The saints of God their conflict past

Author: Bishop William D. Maclagan Appears in 70 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The saints of God! Their conflict past, And life's long battle won at last, No more they need the shield or sword, They cast them down before their Lord: O happy saints! for ever blest, At Jesus' feet how safe your rest! 2 The saints of God! Their wanderings done, No more their weary course they run, No more they faint, no more they fall, No foes oppress, no fears appall: O happy saints! for ever blest, In that dear home how sweet your rest! 3 The saints of God! Life's voyage o'er, Safe landed on that blissful shore, No stormy tempests now they dread, No roaring billows lift their head: O happy saints! for ever blest, In that calm haven of your rest! 4 The saints of God their vigil keep While yet their mortal bodies sleep, Till from the dust they too shall rise And soar triumphant to the skies: O happy saints! rejoice and sing; He quickly comes, your Lord and King. 5 O God of saints, to Thee we cry, O Saviour, plead for us on high; O Holy Ghost, our Guide and Friend, Grant us Thy grace till life shall end; That with all saints our rest may be In that bright Paradise with Thee. Amen.

Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old

Author: Rev. Edward H. Plumptre Appears in 177 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old Was strong to heal and save; It triumphed o'er disease and death, O'er darkness and the grave. To Thee they went, the blind, the deaf, The palsied, and the lame, The leper with his tainted life, The sick with fevered frame. 2 And lo, Thy touch brought life and health, Gave speech, and strength, and sight; And youth renewed and frenzy calmed Owned Thee, the Lord of light: And now, O Lord, be near to bless, Almighty as of yore, In crowded street, by restless couch, As by Gennesaret's shore. 3 Though Love and Might no longer heal By touch, or word, or look; Though they who do Thy work must read Thy laws in nature's book; Yet come to heal the sick man's soul Come, cleanse the leprous taint; Give joy and peace where all is strife, And strength where all is faint. 4 Be Thou our great Deliverer still, Thou Lord of life and death; Restore and quicken, soothe and bless, With thine almighty breath. To hands that work and eyes that see, Give wisdom's heavenly lore, That whole and sick, and weak and strong, May praise Thee evermore. Amen.

Saviour, Guardian, heavenly Friend, O defend us to the end! 4 Thine for ever! Saviour, keep These Thy frail and trembling sheep, Safe alone beneath Thy care, Let them all Thy goodness share. 5 Thine for ever! Thou our Guide, All our wants by Thee supplied, All our sins by Thee forgiven, Lead us, Lord, from earth to heaven. Amen.

All praise to God the Father be, All praise, Eternal Son, to thee, Whom, with the Spirit, we adore, For ever and for evermore. Amen.

And nothing can take from us, Where'er our steps may move, The staff of Thy sure promise, The shield of Thy true love. Amen.

Thou art coming, O my Savior

Havergal Appears in 118 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou art coming, O my Saviour, Thou art coming, O my King, In Thy beauty all resplendent, In Thy glory all transcendent; Well may we rejoice and sing: Coming! in the opening east Herald brightness slowly swells; Coming! O my glorious Priest, Hear we not Thy golden bells? 2 Thou art coming, Thou art coming; We shall meet Thee on Thy way; We shall see Thee, we shall know Thee, We shall bless Thee, we shall show Thee All our hearts could never say: What an anthem that will be, Ringing out our love to Thee, Pouring out our rapture sweet At Thine own all-glorious feet. 3 Thou art coming; at Thy table We are witnesses for this; While remembering hearts Thou meetest In communion clearest, sweetest, Earnest of our coming bliss; Showing not Thy death alone, And Thy love exceeding great, But Thy coming and Thy throne, All for which we long and wait. 4 Thou art coming; we are waiting With a hope that cannot fail; Asking not the day or hour, Resting on Thy word of power, Anchored safe within the veil: Time appointed may be long, But the vision must be sure; Certainty shall make us strong, Joyful patience can endure. 5 O the joy to see Thee reigning, Thee, my own beloved Lord! Every tongue Thy Name confessing, Worship, honor, glory, blessing Brought to Thee with glad accord; Thee, my Master and my Friend, Vindicated and enthroned, Unto earth's remotest end Glorified, adored, and owned. Amen.

Thou art gone up on high

Author: Emma L. Toke Appears in 139 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou art gone up on high To mansions in the skies; And round Thy throne unceasingly The songs of praise arise; But we are lingering here, With sin and care oppressed; Lord, send thy promised Comforter, And lead us to Thy rest. 2 Thou art gone up on high; But Thou didst first come down, Through earth's most bitter misery To pass unto Thy crown; And girt with griefs and fears Our onward course must be; But only let that path of tears Lead us at last to Thee. 3 Thou art gone up on high; But Thou shalt come again, With all the bright ones of the sky Attendant in Thy train. O by Thy saving power So make us live and die, That we may stand in that dread hour At Thy right hand on high. Amen.

Thou art my Hiding-place, O Lord

Author: Rev. Thomas Raffles Appears in 112 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou art my Hiding-place, O Lord, In Thee I put my trust; Encouraged by Thy holy word, A feeble child of dust: I have no argument beside, I urge no other plea; And 'tis enough my Savior died, My Saviour died for me. 2 When storms of fierce temptation beat, And furious foes assail, My refuge is the mercy-seat, My hope within the veil. From strife of tongues and bitter words My spirit flies to Thee: Joy to my heart the thought affords, My Saviour died for me. 3 Mid trials heavy to be borne, When mortal strength is vain, A heart with grief and anguish torn, A body racked with pain; Ah! what could give the sufferer rest, Bid every murmur flee, But this, the witness in my breast That Jesus died for me? 4 And when Thine awful voice commands This body to decay, And life, in its last lingering sands, Is ebbing fast away,-- Then, though it be in accents weak, And faint and tremblingly, O give me strength in death to speak, "My Saviour died for me." Amen.

Amen.
