Upward Where the Stars Are Burning

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7048 Meter: 8.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Upward where the stars are burning, Silent, silent in their turning Round the never changing pole; Upward where the sky is brightest, Upward where the blue is lightest, Lift I now my longing soul. 2. Far above that arch of gladness, Far beyond these clouds of sadness, Are the many mansions fair. Far from pain and sin and folly, In that palace of the holy, I would find my mansion there. 3. Where the glory brightly dwelleth, Where the new song sweetly swelleth, And the discord never comes; Where life’s stream is ever laving, And the palm is ever waving, That must be the home of homes. 4. Where the Lamb on high is seated, By ten thousand voices greeted, Lord of lords, and King of kings. Son of Man, they crown, they crown Him, Son of God, they own, they own Him; With His name the palace rings. 5. Blessing, honor, without measure, Heavenly riches, earthly treasure, Lay we at His blessèd feet: Poor the praise that now we render, Loud shall be our voices yonder, When before His throne we meet.

Easter Morning

Author: Myra G. Plantz, 1856-1914 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1315 Meter: 8.8.7 D First Line: From the sea the mist floats slowly Lyrics: 1. From the sea the mist floats slowly, While night’s tapers, faint and holy, Fade beyond the dawning gray; Birds within the nest are waking; Far above the East is breaking, Promise of returning day. 2. Seraphim who saw unfolding Earth’s first morn are now beholding That which will all ages thrill— They who sang in heavenly places At His birth, and hid their faces From His shame, with awe are still. 3. For behold where they have laid Him— Empty is the tomb they made Him— Death lies conquered at His feet. See, He waits to greet the morning, Fairest thing the earth adorning, All love’s sacrifice complete. 4. Miracle of love that giveth Life from death, because He liveth; O, the crown of victory; That, while angels fall before Him, Human hearts can best adore Him! He is risen, soul, for thee!

In Thy Glorious Resurrection

Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3089 Meter: 8.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. In Thy glorious resurrection, Lord, we see a world’s erection, Man in Thee is glorified. Bliss, for which the patriarchs panted, Joys, by holy psalmists chanted, Now in Thee are verified. 2. Oracles of former ages, Veiled in dim prophetic pages, Now lie open to the sight; Now the types, which glimmered darkling In the twilight gloom, are sparkling, In the blaze of noonday light. 3. Isaac from the wood is risen; Joseph issues from the prison; See the Paschal Lamb which saves; Israel through the sea is landed, Pharaoh and his hosts are stranded, And o’erwhelmèd in the waves. 4. See the cloudy pillar leading, Rock refreshing, manna feeding; Joshua fights and Moses prays; See the lifted wave-sheaf, cheering Pledge of harvest-fruits appearing, Joyful dawn of happy days. 5. Samson see at night uptearing Gaza’s brazen gates, and bearing To the top of Hebron’s hill; Jonah comes from stormy surges, From his three-days’ grave emerges, Bids beware of coming ill. 6. So Thy resurrection’s glory Sheds a light on ancient story; And it casts a forward ray, Beacon light of solemn warning, To the dawn of that great morning Ushering in the judgment day. 7. Ever since Thy death and rising Thou the nations art baptizing In Thy death’s similitude; Dead to sin, and ever dying, And our members mortifying, May we walk with life renewed! 8. Forth from Thy first Easter going, Sundays are for ever flowing Onward to a boundless sea; Lord, may they for Thee prepare us, On a holy river bear us To a calm eternity!
