Text: Psalm 47:5, 103:19 Ascendit Deus in jubilatione, et Dominus in voce tubae. Alleluia. Dominus in caelo paravit sedem suam. Alleluia. God is gone up with a merry noise, and the Lord with the sound of the trumpet. Alleluia. The Lord hath prepared his seat in heaven. Alleluia.
Hark, I hear the harps eternal Ringing on the farther shore, As I near those swollen waters With their deep and solemn roar. Refrain: Hallelujah, hallelujah, Hallelujah, praise the Lamb! Hallelujah, hallelujah, Glory to the great I AM! And my soul, tho’ stain’d with sorrow, Fading as the light of day, Passes swiftly o’er those waters, To the city far away. Refrain Souls have crossed before me, saintly, To that land of perfect rest; And I hear them singing faintly In the mansions of the blest. Refrain
Text: from Psalm 23 The Lord’s my Shepherd, I’ll not want. He makes me down to lie In pastures green; He leadeth me The quiet waters by. My soul He doth restore again; And me to walk doth make Within the paths of blessedness, E’en for His own Name’s sake. Yea, though I pass through shadowed vale, Yet will I fear no ill; For Thou art with me; and Thy rod And staff me comfort still. My table Thou hast furnished In presence of my foes; My head with oil Thou dost anoint, And my cup overflows. My head Thou dost with oil anoint, And my cup overflows. Goodness and mercy all my days Will surely follow me; And in my Father’s heart alway My dwelling place shall be. And in my heart for evermore Thy dwelling place shall be.
