The Silver Chime

Whitaker Hymnal: SC1862 #3 (1862) First Line: Ring out, ring out, sweet silver bells Refrain First Line: Thrice blessed is the gladsome sound Lyrics: 1 Ring out, ring out, sweet silver bells, A joyous, joyous chime, Your welcome music ever tells A Saviour's love divine. Thrice blessed is the gladsome sound Now pealing on the air, With willing hearts and feet we bound To God's own house of prayer. 2 Ring out, sweet bells, a happy strain, Awake each tuneful voice To praise His dear and holy name, In Him let all rejoice. We are the children of His love, United may we live; He stoops from His bright throne above, To pity and forgive. 3 Ring out your free, inspiring call, Sweet bells of silver tongue, Before His footstool here we fall, And breathe our grateful song; To us ye speak of joys unseen, Immortal life and light, A world of purity serene, Where faith is changed to sight.

The angel ranks that gird the throne

Author: William B. Tappan Hymnal: SC1862 #12 (1862) Lyrics: 1 The angel ranks that gird the throne Of Majesty, stand not alone; To mortals, disenthrall'd, 'tis given To join the choral hymn of heaven. Hark! even now a richer strain Comes floating o'er th' eternal plain; To infant choirs those harps belong, And children's voices swell that song. 2 Gabriel ne'er touch'd a sweeter string-- His legions listen, as they sing; O whence those cherub ministrels, say-- Clad in Immanuel's bright array? In scenes where thoughtless worldlings dwell Their lot was cast, whose lyres now swell The thrilling melody above; Thine be the praise, O God of love! 3 The Sunday School! Earth has no name Worthier to fill the breath of Fame; The untold blessings it hath shed Shall be revealed when worlds have fled, O Thou of Bethlem, once a child, Jesus! compassionate and mild-- Approve thy work: be this the sum Of all our toil--"Thy Kingdom Come!" Tune Title: [The angel ranks that gird the throne]
