Hymn Context Compare
Then ev­ery fruit­ful mount­ain­side
And those that dwelt in death’s dark vale
Tho’ se­ven times hot­ter than be­fore
For all that love thee in their hearts
Still on heav’n­ly man­na feed­ing,
Old en­mi­ty for­get, old friend­ship knit again,
Happy the coun­try, where the sheep,
The vir­tue of Thy grace
Their heal­ing wings dis­play;
Scatter bless­ings o’er the land;
Enhanced as is my guilt,
Glory, glo­ry in the high­est!
O, seek her young! With stead­fast­ness
His might thine heart shall strength­en,
Make con­flicts ev­ery­where to cease,
O peo­ple blest, when flock and field
start
Louder it speaks to the sons of men,
The flut­ter­er to Thy breast.
In God’s love ab­id­ing, I have joy and peace

in­crease

And right­eous­ness in all the land
Their con­stant theme shall be,
The Lord our God whom we ad­ore
Shall pros­per and in­crease.
Fill each heart with con­so­la­tion;
This day is born in Beth­le­hem the Prince of Peace.
Where men se­cure­ly work or sleep,
And mul­ti­ply the faith­ful race
Unto the per­fect day.
Every breeze shall whis­per peace,
I’d fly the swift­er to the cross,
Glory, glo­ry in the high­est!
For hers are ways of plea­sant­ness,
Mercy thy days shall length­en;
And kind­ness con­quer wrong.
And bless­ings mul­ti­ply;
Who great­ly trou­ble me!
“Enter the plea­sant paths of peace.
And for the wan­ing joy;
In His care con­fid­ing, I will sweet­ly sleep.
