Behod! the mountain of the Lord
Author: Michael Bruce, 1746-1767 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #271 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Missions Lyrics: 1 Behold! the mountain of the Lord
In latter days shall rise
On mountain-tops above the hills,
And draw the wondering eyes.
2 To this the joyful nations round,
All tribes and tongues, shall flow;
Up to the hill of God, they'll say
And to His house we'll go.
3 The team that shines from Zion's hill
Shall lighten every land;
The King who reigns in Salem's towers
Shall all the world command.
4 Among the nations He shall judge;
His judgments truth shall guide;
His scepter shall protect the just
And quell the sinner's pride.
5 No strife shall rage, nor hostile feuds
Disturb those peaceful years;
To ploughshares men shall beat their swords,
To pruning-hooks their spears.
6 No longer hosts, encountering hosts,
Shall crowds of slain deplore;
They'll hang the trumpet in the hall,
And study war no more.
7 Come, then, O house of Jacob! come
To worship at His shrine,
And, walking in the light of God,
With holy beauties shine. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MAGNUS
Behod! the mountain of the Lord
The light of God is falling
Author: Rev. Louis F. Benson Hymnal: The Hymnal #400 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Brotherhood Lyrics: 1 The light of God is falling
Upon life's common way;
The Master's voice still calling,
"Come, walk with Me today";
No duty can seem lowly
To him who lives with Thee,
And all of life grows holy,
O Christ of Galilee!
2 Who shares his life's pure pleasures,
And walks the honest road,
Who trades with heaping measures,
And lifts his brother's load,
Who turns the wrong down bluntly,
And lends the right a hand,
He dwells in God's own country,
He tills the Holy Land.
3 Where human lives are thronging
In toil and pain and sin,
While cloistered hearts are longing
To bring the Kingdom in,
O Christ, the Elder Brother
Of proud and beaten men,
When they have found each other,
Thy Kingdom will come then!
4 Thy ransomed host in glory,
All souls that sin and pray,
Turn toward the cross that bore Thee;
"Behold the Man!" they say:
And while Thy Church is pleading
For all who would do good,
We hear Thy true voice leading
Our song of brotherhood.
Amen. Tune Title: GREENLAND
The light of God is falling
I love Thy kingdom, Lord
Author: Dr. Timothy Dwight, 1752-1817 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #193 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God The Church Lyrics: 1 I love Thy kingdom, Lord,
The house of Thine abode,
The Church our blest Redeemer saves
With His own precious blood.
2 I love Thy Church, O God!
Her walls before Thee stand,
Dear as the apple of Thine eye,
And graven on Thine hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall,
For her my prayers ascend;
To her my cares and toils be given,
Till toils and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heavenly ways,
Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
Her hymns of love and praise.
5 Sure as Thy truth shall last,
To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield,
And brighter bliss of heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AUGUSTINE

"Thy kingdom come," on bended knee
Author: Rev. Frederick L. Hosmer Hymnal: The Hymnal #363 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 "Thy kingdom come," on bended knee
The passing ages pray;
And faithful souls have yearned to see
On earth that Kingdom's day.
2 But the slow watches of the night
Not less to God belong;
And for the everlasting right
The silent stars are strong.
3 And lo! already on the hills
The flags of dawn appear;
Gird up your loins, ye prophet souls,
Proclaim the day is near:
4 The day in whose clear-shining light
All wrong shall stand revealed;
When justice shall be clothed with might,
And every hurt be healed.
5 When knowledge, hand in hand with peace,
Shall walk the earth abroad;
The day of perfect righteousness,
The promised day of God.
Amen. Tune Title: CHESTERFIELD

To serve the King of kings.
2 Rise up, O men of God!
His Kingdom tarries long;
Bring in the day of brotherhood
And end the night of wrong.

The Church for you doth wait,
Her strength unequal to her task;
Rise up, and make her great!

Tread where His feet have trod;
As brothers of the Son of Man,
Rise up, O men of God!
Amen. Tune Title: FESTAL SONG

Sweet reign of light and love,
Shed peace, and hope, and joy abroad,
And wisdom from above.

And make the broad earth thine;
Stretch o’er her lands and isles the rod
That flowers with grace divine.

With fruit from life’s glad tree;
And in its shade like brothers rest,
Sons of one family.

And raise thy glorious throne
In worlds by the undying trod,
Where God shall bless His own.

Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Author: J. Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #283a (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Missions; Missions (See also Kingdom of God) Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed;
Great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
His reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
To set the captive free,
To take away transgression,
And rule in equity.
2 He comes, with succor speedy,
To those who suffer wrong;
To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong;
To give them songs for sighing,
Their darkness turn to light,
Whose souls, condemned and dying,
Were precious in His sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
Upon the fruitful earth;
Love, joy, and hope, like flowers,
Spring in His path to birth.
Before Him, on the mountains,
Shall peace the herald go;
And righteousness in fountains,
From hill to valley flow.
4 Kings shall fall down before Him
And gold and incense bring;
All nations shall adore Him,
His praise all people sing;
For Him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend;
His kingdom still increasing,
A kingdom without end.
5 O'er every foe victorious,
He on His throne shall rest;
From age to age more glorious,
All-blessing and all-blest.
The tide of time shall never
His covenant remove;
His name shall stand for ever,
His changeless name of Love. Languages: English Tune Title: CRUGER

Hail to the Lord's anointed
See how great a flame aspires
Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #286 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Missions Lyrics: 1 See how great a flame aspires,
Kindled by a spark of grace!
Jesus' love the nations fires,
Sets the kingdoms on a blaze;
To bring fire on earth He came,
Kindled in some hearts it is;
O that all might catch the flame,
All partake the glorious bliss!
2 When He first the work begun,
Small and feeble was His day;
Now the word doth swiftly run,
Now it wins its widening way;
More and more it spreads and grows,
Ever mighty to prevail,
Sin's strongholds it now o'erthrows,
Shakes the trembling gates of hell.
3 Sons of God, your Saviour praise!
He the door hath opened wide;
He hath given the word of grace,
Jesus' word is glorified;
Jesus, mighty to redeem,
He alone the work hath wrought;
Worthy is the work of Him,
Him who spake a world from nought.
4 Saw ye not the cloud arise,
Little as a human hand
Now it spreads along the skies,
Hangs o'er all the thirsty land;
Lo! the promise of a shower
Drops already from above;
But the Lord will shortly pour
All the Spirit of His love!
