The Tribunal

Author: Lady Huntington Hymnal: Laudes Domini #185 (1890) Topics: Millennium; Millennium First Line: When thou, my righteous Judge, shalt come Lyrics: 1 When thou, my righteous Judge, shalt come To take thy ransomed people home, Shall I among them stand? Shall such a worthless worm as I, Who sometimes am afraid to die, Be found at thy right hand? 2 I love to meet thy people now, Before thy feet with them to bow, Though vilest of them all; But, can I bear the piercing thought, What if my name should be left out, When thou for them shalt call? 3 O Lord, prevent it by thy grace, Be thou my only hiding-place, In this the accepted day; Thy pardoning voice, oh, let me hear, To still my unbelieving fear, Nor let me fall, I pray. 4 Among thy saints let me be found, Whene'er the archangel's trump shall sound, To see thy smiling face; Then loudest of the throng I'll sing, While heaven's resounding mansions ring With shouts of sovereign grace.

The sun uprises slowly, But keep thy watch and ward: Fair Bride, all pure and lowly, Go forth to meet thy Lord. Languages: English

And let your lights appear; The shades of eve are thickening, And darker night is near; The Bridegroom is advancing; Each hour he draws more nigh; Up! watch and pray, nor slumber; At midnight comes the cry. 2 See that your lamps are burning, Your vessels filled with oil; Wait calmly your deliverance From earthly pain and toil; The watchers on the mountains Proclaim the Bridegroom near; Go, meet him, as he cometh, With hallelujahs clear. 3 Our hope and expectation, O Jesus, now appear! Arise thou sun so looked-for, O'er this benighted sphere! With hearts and hands uplifted, We plead, O Lord, to see The day of our redemption, And ever be with thee.

The Judgment

Author: Mrs. C. F. Alexander Hymnal: Laudes Domini #189 (1890) Topics: Millennium; Millennium First Line: He is coming, he is coming Lyrics: 1 He is coming, he is coming, Not as once he came before, Wailing infant, born in weakness On a lowly stable floor: But upon his cloud of glory, In the crimson-tinted sky, Where we see the golden sunrise In the rosy distance lie. 2 He is coming, he is coming, Not in pain, and shame, and woe, With the thorn-crown on his forehead, And the blood-drops trickling slow; But with diadem upon him, And the sceptre in his hand, And the dead all ranged before him, Raised from death, hell, sea, and land. 3 He is coming, he is coming, Not as once he wandered through All the hostile land of Judah, With his followers poor and few: But with all the holy angels Waiting round his judgment-seat, And the chosen twelve apostles Sitting crowned at his feet. 4 He is coming, he is coming; Let his lowly first estate, And his tender love, so teach us That in faith and hope we wait, Till in glory eastward burning, Our redemption draweth near; And we see the sign in heaven Of our Judge and Saviour dear.

Rise on us, thy love revealing, Dissipate the clouds beneath: Thou of heaven and earth Creator, In our deepest darkness rise, Scattering all the night of nature, Pouring day upon our eyes. 2 Still we wait for thine appearing; Life and joy thy beams impart, Chasing all our fears, and cheering Every poor benighted heart: Come and manifest thy favor To the ransomed, helpless race; Come, thou glorious God and Saviour! Come, and bring the gospel grace. 3 Save us, in thy great compassion, O thou mild, pacific Prince! Give the knowledge of salvation, Give the pardon of our sins; By thine all-sufficient merit, Every burdened soul release; Every weary, wandering spirit, Guide into thy perfect peace.

He, whose word cannot be broken, Formed thee for his own abode: On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, Thou may'st smile at all thy love. 2 See! the streams of living waters, Springing from eternal love, Well supply thy sons and daughters, And all fear of want remove: Who can faint, while such a river Ever flows their thirst to assuage? Grace, which, like the Lord, the Giver, Never fails from age to age. 3 Round each habitation hovering, See the cloud and fire appear For a glory and a covering, Showing that the Lord is near! Thus deriving from their banner, Light by night, and shade by day, Safe thy feed upon the manna Which he gives them when they pray. Languages: English

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 moon no more shall see, But, your griefs for ever ending, 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

Traveler, yes: it brings the day, Promised day of Israel. 2 Watchman, tell us of the night: Higher yet that star ascends. Traveler, blessedness and light, Peace and truth, its course portends. Watchman, will its beams alone Gild the spot that gave them birth? Traveler, ages are its own; See! it bursts o'er all the earth! 3 Watchman, tell us of the night, For the morning seems to dawn. Traveler, darkness takes its flight, Doubt and terror are withdrawn. Watchman, let thy wanderings cease; Hie thee to thy quiet home. Traveler, lo! the Prince of Peace, Lo! the Son of God is come!
