How Bright These Glorious Spirits Shine!
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #544 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: The Way of Salvation The Resurrection and Everlasting Life First Line: How bright these glorious spirits shine Lyrics: 1 How bright these glorious spirits shine!
Whence all their white array?
How came they to the blissful seats
of everlasting day?
Lo! these are they from suff'rings great
who came to realms of light!
and in the blood of Christ have washed
those robes which shine so bright.
2 Now, with triumphal palms, they stand
before the throne on high,
and serve the God they love, amidst
the glories of the sky.
His presence fills each heart with joy,
tunes ev'ry mouth to sing:
by day, by night, the sacred courts
with glad hosannas ring.
3 Hunger and thirst are felt no more,
nor suns with scorching ray;
God is their sun, whose cheering beams
diffuse eternal day.
The Lamb which dwells amidst the throne
shall o'er them still preside,
feed them with nourishment divine,
and all their footsteps guide.
4 'Mong pastures green he'll lead his flock
where living streams appear;
and God the Lord from ev'ry eye
shall wipe off ev'ry tear.
To him who sits upon the throne,
the God whom we adore,
and to the Lamb that once was slain,
be glory evermore!

There Is a Land of Pure Delight
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #550 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Way of Salvation The Resurrection and Everlasting Life Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight,
where saints immortal reign;
infinite day excludes the night,
and pleasures banish pain.
2 There everlasting spring abides,
and never-with'ring flow'rs;
death, like a narrow sea, divides
this heav'nly land from ours.
3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
stand dressed in living green;
so to the Jews old Canaan stood,
while Jordan rolled between.
4 But tim'rous mortals start and shrink
to cross this narrow sea;
and linger, shiv'ring, on the brink,
and fear to launch away.
5 O could we make our doubts remove,
those gloomy doubts that rise,
and see the Canaan that we love
with unbeclouded eyes;
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
and view the landscape o'er,
not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
should fright us from the shore.
Scripture: Deuteronomy 4:22 Languages: English Tune Title: MEDITATION
There Is a Land of Pure Delight
Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone
Author: Thomas Shepherd, 1665-1739 Hymnal: Total Praise #562 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Everlasting Life Lyrics: 1 Must Jesus bear the cross alone
And all the world go free?
No, there's a cross for ev'ry one,
And there's a cross for me.
2 The consecrated cross I'll bear
Till death shall set me free,
And then go home my crown to wear,
For there's a crown for me.
3 Upon the crystal pavement, down
At Jesus' pierced feet,
Joyful, I'll cast my golden crown
And His dear name repeat.
4 O precious cross! O glorious crown!
O resurrection day!
Ye angels, from the stars come down
And bear my soul away. Scripture: Luke 9:23 Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND

And when the battle's over we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.
Wear a crown, wear a crown,
Wear a bright and shining crown,
And when the battle's over we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.
2 Must I be carried to the skies
On flow'ry beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
And sailed thro' bloody seas? [Refrain]
3 Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to God? [Refrain]

Increase my courage, Lord;
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by Thy word. [Refrain] Scripture: 1 Peter 5:4 Languages: English Tune Title: WEAR A CROWN
