Like Thousand Mountains Brightly Crowned
Author: H. A. Brorson Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #245 (1927) Topics: Comfort and Hope Lyrics: 1 Like thousand mountains brightly crowned,
With groves of swaying palms around,
We see a throng of ev'ry tongue
In snow-white mantles gowned.
These are the heroes who did go
Thro' pains and trials here below.
The Lamb of God has with His blood
Their robes made white as snow.
In heaven now His face they see
In never-ending jubilee
Where angels sing Before the King
The sweetest symphony.
2 Their earthly lot was shame and scorn,
But now behold them bright as morn,
In priestly gowns, with golden crowns,
And glory heaven-born.
The world did often them dismay
And tears would flow by night and day,
But God by grace in His embrace
Has wiped all tears away.
And now they find where life is best
Eternal joy with hearts at rest;
The Lamb so dear At fountains clear
In Host as well as Guest.
3 Now, hail to you, bright heroes bold,
The saints just gone, the saints of old,
That unto death ye kept the faith
And passed away consoled!
Ye counted earthly pleasures cheap,
With tears ye sowed and now ye reap
The golden grain and see your gain
With gladness strong and deep.
Lift up your voice and wave your palms,
Yea, fill all heaven with your psalms:
"All honor be Eternally
To God and to the Lamb!"

I Love, And I Know The Span Of My Years
Author: B. S. Ingemann Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #247 (1927) Meter: 10.9.11.10.9 Topics: Comfort and Hope First Line: I live, and I know the span of my years Lyrics: 1 I Live, and I know the span of my years:
I live until Jesus me calleth.
I live as a guest in this valley of tears,
I live till the beckoning hand appears
For which the last barrier falleth.
2 I die, and I know what hour it will be;
I die at the hour of His pleasure.
I die, and mine eyes my perfection shall see,
I die, and my soul from its clay is free
And soars to its heavenly treasure.
3 I journey and know just whither I'm bound;
I'm bound for the kingdom of heaven.
I go where the house of my Father is found,
Where jubilant voices with praises sound,
And joys to His children are given.
4 I lead now a blessed life in my Lord,
I die but to live with Him ever.
I journey with faith in my Savior's word,
I carry His helmet and Spirit's sword
Until He my life-thread shall sever. Languages: English Tune Title: [I live, and I know the span of my years]

Who Knows How Soon My Days Are Ended
Author: Amilia Juliana, Countess of Schwartzburg Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #248 (1927) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Topics: Comfort and Hope Lyrics: 1 Who knows how soon my days are ended?
My years are few, and time speeds on.
How swiftly, in this world of changes,
May death approach and life be gone!
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.
2 So teach me, Lord, my days to number
That when the hour of death appears,
The wounds of Christ may be my refuge,
Nor may I spare repentant tears.
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.
3 Help me to put my house in order
That I may ever ready be
To leave this world, and say in meekness:
Lord, deal Thou as Thou wilt with me.
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.
4 O Father, let my sins be covered
With Jesus' blood and righteousness;
By faith this spotless garment wearing,
I rest shall find from all distress.
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.
5 From Jesus naught my soul can sever,
Nor life nor death shall do me harm;
Him as my Lord and God confessing,
I easily my foes disarm.
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.
6 With Him I live in sweet contentment,
And death instills no thought of fear;
For, while to Thee my ways commending,
I have this faith to lend me cheer:
Thy grace in Christ shall be my stay,
And I in peace shall pass away. Languages: English Tune Title: [Who knows how soon my days are ended]

Some Day I Know
Author: A. Wexels Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #249 (1927) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Comfort and Hope First Line: Some day, I know, the mist that life is veiling Lyrics: 1 Some day, I know, the mist that life is veiling
Shall roll away and darkness disappear
Before the day with radiance never failing
On which my path shall lie before me clear.
2 Some day, I know, all mysteries perplexing
Which here I never quite could understand,
With all my problems yet unsolved and vexing,
Shall be revealed, and I shall see God's hand.
3 Some day, I know, all sorrow shall have vanished,
All wounds be healed and ev'ry want supplied.
All tears shall cease, all sighs for aye be banished;
In love's embrace all unrest shall subside.
4 Some day, I know, I shall appear before Him
Whom here I hold in love's and faith's embrace,
Shall humbly kneel and gratefully adore Him,
And with mine eyes behold Him face to face.
5 Some day, I know, for sin no longer slaving,
Each tho't and word and deed unstained and pure,
I shall not even fear a sinful craving
My purity and bliss might e'er obscure.
6 Some day, I know, in yonder realms of glory,
I and the friend I found while on the way
Shall speak of that new life and tell the story
Of this old life, dimmed like a dream by day.
7 My Savior, give my heart this sweet conviction
Each time the way seems long and full of pain,
That it may lighten ev'ry deep affliction
And cause a smile to shine through tears again. Languages: English Tune Title: [Some day, I know, the mist that life is veiling]

I Know Of A Sleep In Jesus' Name
Author: M. B. Landstad Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #250 (1927) Topics: Comfort and Hope Lyrics: 1 I know of a sleep in Jesus' name,
A rest from all toil and sorrow;
Earth folds in her arms my weary frame,
And shelters it till the morrow;
My soul is at home with God in heaven,
Her sorrows are past and over.
2 I know of a peaceful eventide;
And when I am faint and weary,
At times with the journey sorely tried,
Thro' hours that are long and dreary;
Then often I yearn to lay me down,
And sink into blissful slumber.
3 I know of a morning bright and fair,
When tidings of joy shall wake us,
When songs from on high shall fill the air,
And God to His glory take us,
When Jesus shall bid us rise from sleep;
How joyous that hour of awaking!
4 Now opens the Father's house above,
The names of the blest are given:
Lord, gather us there; let none we love
Be missed in the joys of heaven.
Vouchsafe Thou us all a place with Thee;
We ask thro' our dear Redeemer.
5 O Jesus, draw near my dying bed,
And take me into Thy keeping,
And say when my spirit hence is fled:
"This child is not dead, but sleeping."
And leave me not, Savior, till I rise,
To praise Thee in life eternal.
