Mortals, Give Ear

Author: John Needham Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9455 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Mortals, give ear, the awful day Lyrics: 1 Mortals, give ear, the awful day, The last, the great assize, Advances swift as minutes fly The guilty to surprise. 2 That eye which sees thro’ darkest shades Of secrecy and night; That ear which every whisper hears Shall bring each deed to light. 3 How will the guilty trembling stand To see their sins revealed? And all their thoughts made public then Which lay before concealed. 4 Horror and anguish seize their souls, Despoiled of each disguise: Despair now racks their guilty breasts, And hope for ever dies. 5 Not so the righteous—they shall stand, Nor vengeance them affright: The Judge who goodness loves will bring Their secret good to light. 6 Blushing with joy, the saint shall hear Each pious deed proclaimed; And see his name with honor shine By malice once defamed. 7 Thus by an interposing sphere The sun is veiled in night, But soon he shows his face with all The majesty of light.

Daughters Of Pity, Tune The Lay

Author: William Hampson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12638 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Daughters of pity, tune the lay; To mourners joy belongs; While He that wipes all tears away Accepts our thankful songs. 2 No altars smoke, no offerings bleed, No guiltless lives expire; To help a brother in his need Is all our rites require. 3 Our offering is a willing mind To comfort the distressed; In others’ good our own to find, In others’ blessing blest. 4 Go to the pillow of disease, Where night gives no repose, And on the cheek where sickness preys, Bid health to plant a rose. 5 Go where the friendless stranger lies; To perish is his doom: Snatch from the grave his closing eyes, And bring his blessing home. 6 Thus, what our heav’nly Father gave, Shall we as freely give; Thus copy Him who lived to save, And died that we might live.

Jesus, Descend With Glory Crowned

Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16275 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Jesus, descend with glory crowned Lyrics: 1 Jesus, descend with glory crowned, Make bare Thy mighty arm; Let the archangel’s trumpet sound The dread and loud alarm. 2 Let the rebellious race appear Before Thine awful seat, There the decisive sentence hear, Thy just displeasure meet. 3 See the whole globe of earth on fire, And towns and forests blaze, While those who made them their desire, Are filled with wild amaze. 4 Let sinners now to mountains pray, To rocks for shelter fly; Mountains will shake as well as they, The rocks in fragments lie. 5 But saints the scene with calmness view, Now their redemption’s near; Their Judge is their Redeemer too, Whose love forbids their fear.
