Day of Judgment! Day of Wonders!

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 341 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Day of judgment! Day of wonders! Hark! the trumpet's awesome sound, louder than a thousand thunders, shakes the vast creation round. How the summons will the sinner's heart confound! 2 See the Judge, our nature wearing, clothed in majesty divine. You who long for his appearing then shall say, "This God is mine!" Gracious Savior, own me on that day as thine. 3 At his call the dead awaken, rise to life from earth and sea. All the powers of nature, shaken by his looks, prepare to flee. Careless sinner, what will then become of thee? 4 But to those who have confessed, loved, and served the Lord below, he will say, "Come near, you blessed, see the kingdom I bestow; you forever shall my love and glory know."

All is o'er, the pain, the sorrow

Author: John Moultrie Meter: 8.7.7 Appears in 35 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All is o'er, the pain, the sorrow, Human taunts and Satan's spite; Death shall be despoiled to-morrow Of the prey he grasps to-night; Yet once more, to seal his doom, Christ must sleep within the tomb. 2 Fierce and deadly was the anguish On the bitter Cross He bore; How did soul and body languish, Till the toil of death was o'er! But that toil, so fierce and dread, Bruised and crushed the serpent's head. 3 Close and still the tomb that holds Him, While in brief repose He lies: Deep the slumber that enfolds Him, Veiled awhile from mortal eyes: Slumber such as needs must be After hard-won victory. 4 We this night with plaintive voicing Chant His requiem soft and low; Loftier strains of loud rejoicing From to-morrow's harps shall flow: Death and hell at length are slain, Christ hath triumphed, Christ doth reign.

He who once, in righteous vengeance

Author: Edward Caswall Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1 He who once, in righteous vengeance, Whelmed the world beneath the flood, Once again in mercy cleansed it With the stream of His own Blood, Coming from His throne on high On the painful Cross to die. 2 O the wisdom of the Eternal! O its depth, and height divine! O the sweetness of that mercy Which in Jesus Christ doth shine! We were sinners doomed to die; Jesus paid the penalty. 3 When before the Judge we tremble, Conscious of His broken laws, May the blood of His atonement Cry aloud and plead our cause, Bid our guilty terrors cease, Be our pardon and our peace. 4 Prince and Author of salvation! Lord of majesty supreme! Jesus! praise to Thee be given By the world Thou didst redeem: Glory to the Father be, And the Spirit, One with Thee.

All my Hope is firmly grounded

Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: I. All my Hope is firmly grounded In the Lord of Earth and Seas: He's my Help when I'm surrounded With all Sorts of Enemies. Him alone, God or none, I acknowledge for my own. II. Vain's the Boast of Humane Wonders: Vain's the Trust in man's Device: Castles, Armies, Martial Thunders Fail, and vanish in a Trice. Built on Sands Nothing stands. Vain's the Work of Humane Hands. III. But the Love of our Great Maker Never, never will impair. Ev'ry Creature is Partaker Of his Blessings and his Care. Stores of Grace, All he has Waits for Those that seek his Face. IV. Does he not supply with Plenty Ev'ry Thing we truly want? Were his Blessings eve scanty? Did his Children ever want? Oh! his Love Is above All that Human Wit can prove. V. Let us, then, for his Salvation, Come before him all our Days, With the humblest Adoration, And the sweetest Songs of Praise, Through his Son, Who alone Brought this great Salvation down.
