Day of wrath, that Day of mourning!

Author: Thomas de Celano; William Joseph Irons Hymnal: Church Book #569 (1890) Topics: Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Day of wrath, that Day of mourning! See fulfilled the prophet's warning, Heaven and earth in ashes burning! 2 O what fear man's bosom rendeth, When from heaven the Judge descendeth, On whose sentence all dependeth? 3 Wondrous sound the trumpet flingeth, Through earth's sepulchres it ringeth, All before the throne it bringeth. 4 Death is struck, and nature quaking; All creation is awaking, To its Judge an answer making. 5 Lo, the Book, exactly worded, Wherein all hath been recorded; Thence shall judgment be awarded. 6 When the Judge His seat attaineth, And each hidden deed arraigneth, Nothing unavenged remaineth. 7 What shall I, frail man, be pleading? Who for me be interceding, When the just are mercy needing? 8 King of Majesty tremendous, Who dost free salvation send us, Fount of pity, then befriend us! 9 Think, kind Jesus! my salvation Caused Thy wondrous Incarnation; Leave me not to reprobation! 10 Faint and weary thou hast sought me, On the Cross of suff'ring bought me; Shall such grace in vain be brought me? 11 Righteous Judge of retribution, Grant Thy gift of absolution, Ere that day's dread execution. 12 Guilty, now I our my moaning, All my shame with anguish owning! Spare, O God, Thy suppliant, groaning! 13 Thou the woman gavest remission, Heard'st the dying thief's petition: Hopeless else were my condition. 14 Worthless are my prayers and sighing, Yet, good Lord, in grace complying, Rescue me from fires undying! 15 With Thy favored sheep, O place me! Nor amid the goats abase me: But to Thy right hand upraise me. 16 While the wicked are confounded, Doomed to flames of woe unbounded, Call me, with Thy saints surrounded. 17 Bows my heart in meek submission, Strewn with ashes of contrition; Succor Thou my lost condition! 18 Day of sorrows, Day of weeping, When, in dust no longer sleeping, Man awakes in Thy dread keeping! 19 To the Rest Thou didst prepare me, On Thy Cross, O Christ, upbear me? Spare, O God, in mercy spare me! Languages: English Tune Title: DIES IRAE, DIES ILLA

When Thou, my righteous Judge, shalt come

Author: Selina, Countess of Huntingdon Hymnal: Church Book #570 (1890) Topics: Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 When Thou, my righteous Judge, shalt come To fetch Thy ransomed people home, Shall I among them stand? Shall such a worthless worm as I, So sinful and unfit to die, Be found at Thy right hand? 2 Blest Saviour, grant it by They grace; Be Thou my soul's sure Hiding-place, In this my gracious day: Thy pardoning voice O let me hear, To still my unbelieving fear, Nor let me fall away! 3 Among Thy saints let me be found, Whene'er the archangel's trump shall sound, To see Thy smiling face; Then loudest of the crowd I'll sing, While heaven's resounding mansions ring The riches of Thy grace.

Jerusalem, thou city fair and high

Author: John Matthew Meyfart; Miss Winkworth Hymnal: Church Book #578a (1890) Topics: Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, thou city fair and high, Would God I were in thee! My longing heart fain, fain to thee would fly! It will not stay with me; Far over vale and mountain, Far over field and plain, It hastes to seek its Fountain And quit this world of pain. 2 O happy day, and yet far happier hour, When wilt thou come at last? When fearless to my Father's love and power, Whose promise standeth fast, My soul I gladly render, For surely will His hand Lead her with guidance tender To heaven her fatherland. 3 O Zoin, hail! Bright city, now unfold The gates of grace to me! How many a time I longed for thee of old, Ere yet I was set free From yon dark life of sadness, Yon world of shadowy nought, And God had given the gladness, The heritage I sought. 4 O what the tribe, or what the glorious host, Comes sweeping swiftly down? The chosen ones on earth who wrought the most, The Church's brightest crown, Our Lord hath sent to meet me, As in the far-off years, Their words oft came to greet me In yonder land of tears. 5 Innumerous choirs before the shining throne Their joyful anthems raise, Till heaven's glad halls are echoing with the tone Of that great hymn of praise, And all its host rejoices, And all its blessed throng Unite their myriad voices In one eternal song.

Hear what God the Lord hath spoken

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Church Book #581 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Topics: Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Hear what God the Lord hath spoken: O my people, faint and few, Comfortless, afflicted, broken, Fair abodes I build for you. Thorns of heartfelt tribulation, Shall no more perplex your ways: You shall name your walls salvation, And your gates shall all be praise. 2 There, like streams that feed the garden, Pleasures without end shall flow; For the Lord, your faith rewarding, All His bounty shall bestow. Still in undisturbed possession, Peace and righteousness shall reign: Never shall you feel oppression, Hear the voice of war again. 3 Ye no more your suns descending, Waning moons no more shall see; But, your griefs for ever ended, Find eternal noon in Me. God shall rise, and shining o'er you, Change to day the gloom of night; He, the Lord, shall be your Glory, God your everlasting Light. Languages: English Tune Title: WELT ADE, ICH BIN DEIN MÜDE

What are these in bright array

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Church Book #582 (1890) Topics: Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 What are these in bright array, This innumerable throng, Round the altar night and day Hymning one triumphant song? "Worthy is the Lamb, once slain, Blessing, honor, glory, power, Wisdom, riches to obtain, New dominion every hour." 2 These through fiery trials trod; These from great affliction came; Now, before the throne of God, Sealed with His Almighty Name, Clad in raiment pure and white, Victor-palms in every hand, Through their dear Redeemer's might, More than conquerors they stand. 3 Hunger, thirst, disease unknown, On immortal fruits they feed; Them the Lamb amidst the throne Shall to living fountains lead: Joy and gladness banish sighs; Perfect love dispels all fears; And for ever from their eyes God shall wipe away the tears.

Brief life is here our portion

Author: Bernard de Morlaix; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Church Book #586 (1890) Meter: 7.6 Topics: Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion; Brief sorrow, short-lived care; The Life that knows no ending, The tearless Life, is there. O happy retribution! Short toil, eternal rest; For mortals and for sinners A mansion with the blest! 2 That we should look, poor wanderers, To have our Home on high! The worms should seek for dwellings Beyond the starry sky! And now we fight the battle, But then shall wear the crown Of full and everlasting And passionless renown. 3 For thee, O dear, dear Country! Mine eyes their vigils keep; For very love, beholding Thy happy name, they weep: The mention of thy glory Is unction to the breast, And medicine in sickness, And love, and life, and rest. 4 Thou hast no shore, fair ocean! Thou hast no time, bright day! Dear fountain of refreshment To pilgrims far away! Upon the Rock of Ages They raise thy holy tower: Thine is the victor's laurel, And thine the golden dower. 5 There glory yet unheard of Shall shed abroad its ray, Resolving all enigmas, An endless Sabbath day. There God, our King and Portion, In fulness of His grace, Shall we behold for ever, And worship face to face! Languages: English Tune Title: QUAM DILECTA
