O holy city, seen of John
Author: Walter Russell Bowie, 1882-1969 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 89 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John,
where Christ, the Lamb, doth reign,
within whose four-square walls shall come
no night, nor need, nor pain,
and where the tears are wiped from eyes
that shall not weep again.
2 O shame to us who rest content
while lust and greed for gain
in street and shop and tenement
wring gold from human pain,
and bitter lips in blind despair
cry 'Christ hath died in vain!'
3 Give us, O God, the strength to build
the city that hath stood
too long a dream, whose laws are love,
whose ways are brotherhood,
and where the sun that shineth is
God’s grace for human good.
4 Already in the mind of God
that city riseth fair:
lo, how its splendour challenges
the souls that greatly dare;
yea, bids us seize the whole of life
and build its glory there. Topics: General Hymns Church/Fellowship/Mission Scripture: Revelation 21 Used With Tune: MORNING SONG Text Sources: Hymns of the Kingdon of God (Harper & Brothers, New York, 1910)

The King Shall Come When Morning Dawns
Author: John Brownlie, 1859-1925 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 99 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The King shall come when morning dawns
And light triumphant breaks,
When beauty gilds the eastern hills
And life to joy awakes.
2 Not, as of old, a little child,
To bear, and fight, and die,
But crowned with glory like the sun
That lights the morning sky.
3 O brighter than the rising morn
When he, victorious, rose
And left the lonesome place of death,
Despite the rage of foes.
4 O brighter than the glorious morn
Shall this fair morning be,
When Christ, our King, in beauty comes,
And we his face shall see!
5 The King shall come when morning dawns
And light and beauty brings.
Hail, Christ, the Lord! Thy people pray:
Come quickly, King of kings.

Immortal Love, Forever Full
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 308 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Immortal Love, forever full,
Forever flowing free,
Forever shared, forever whole,
A never-ebbing sea!
2 We may not climb the heavenly steeps
To bring the Lord Christ down;
In vain we search the lowest deeps,
For him no depths can drown:
3 But warm, sweet, tender, even yet
A present help is he;
And faith has still its Olivet,
And love its Galilee. Topics: Faith; God's Love; Living Christ; Love Used With Tune: MORNING SONG

That truth to keep, that life to win,
Whose joys eternal flow. Topics: Jesus Christ Used With Tune: MORNING SONG
