Idumea
03:06
|
|||
|
And am I born to die?
To lay this body down!
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown?
A land of deepest shade,
Unpierced by human thought;
The dreary regions of the dead,
Where all things are forgot!
Soon as from earth I go,
What will become of me?
Eternal happiness or woe
Must then my portion be!
Waked by the trumpet sound,
I from my grave shall rise;
And see the Judge with glory crowned,
And see the flaming skies!
|

4. |
New Jerusalem
01:42
|
|||
|
Lo, what a glorious sight appears
To our believing eyes;
The earth and seas are passed away,
And the old rolling skies!
From the third heaven, where God resides,
That holy, happy place,
The new Jerusalem comes down,
Adorned with shining grace.
|
||||
5. |
Night thought
02:12
|
|||
|
How can I sleep when angels sing
And all the saints on high,
Cry glory to the'eternal King,
The Lamb that once did die?
When guardian angels fill the room,
And hov'ring 'round my bed,
Do clap their wings in love to Him,
Who is my glorious head?
O! how can I inactive lie
And thoughtless all the night,
When those celestial spirits praise
The Lord with all their might?
Such joyful spirits never sleep,
Their love is ever new;
Then Oh, my soul no longer cease
To love and praise Him, too.
|

Norwich
02:08
|
|||
|
Oh, the delights, the heav’nly joys,
The glories of the place
Where Jesus sheds the brightest beams,
Of His o’erflowing grace!
Sweet majesty and awful love
Sit smiling on His brow,
And all the glorious ranks above
At humble distance bow.

Pentonville

|
SALVATION! Oh, the joyful sound
What pleasure to our ears
A sovereign balm for every wound
A cordial for our fears
Buried in sorrow and in sin
At hell's dark door we lay
But we arise by grace divine
to see a heavenly day
Salvation, let the echo fly
the spacious earth around
while all the armies of the sky
conspire to raise the sound
|
||||
8. |
Rivers of Babylon
03:58
|
|||
|
Oh by the rivers of Babylon
where we sat down,
And as we wept
when we remembered Zion...
But the wicked
carried us away in captivity
required of us a song
How shall we sing the Lord's sad song
in a strange land?
So let the words of my mouth,
and the meditation of my heart,
be acceptable in thy sight
o Farai

Soar away
02:25
|
|||
|
I want a sober mind,
An all sustaining eye,
To see my God above,
And to the heavens fly.
Chorus:
I’d soar away above the sky,
I’d fly to see my God above.
I want a Godly fear,
A quick discerning eye,
That looks to Thee my God,
And see the tempter fly.
(Chorus)
