In the Hush of Twilight
In the hush of twilight, let the chorus rise,
An echo through the heavens, a song to the skies.
Hosanna! raise the pealing hymn,
To David’s Son and Lord;
With cherubim and seraphim,
Exalt the incarnate Word.
In unison, we lift our praise,
Each note like light that gleams;
With every breath, our hearts ablaze,
We join the angel’s dreams.
Hosanna! Lord, our feeble voice,
In earthly chorus brings;
We in Thy name would now rejoice,
O King of kings of kings!
Hosanna! Sovereign, Prophet, Priest,
How vast Thy refuge-square!
Thy blood-bought church, from first to least,
Is Thy peculiar care.
With hands open wide, and hearts sincere,
We offer up our song,
In reverence, we gather near,
To whom we all belong.
Hosanna! Lord, our feeble voice,
In earthly chorus brings;
We in Thy name would now rejoice,
O King of kings of kings!
Hosanna! Master, lo, we bring,
Our tribute-hearts to Thee;
Body and soul, O glorious King,
Thine, Thine alone to be.
Let every soul join in this praise,
As souls unto the sun;
We yearn to see the brighter days,
When all is said and done.
Hosanna! once Thy temple rung,
With children’s praises free;
And sweet the song of infant tongue,
That rose, O Lord, to Thee.
Hosanna! may each heart become,
A temple, pure and true,
Where Thou shalt find a peaceful home,
And every grace renew.
Let us shine with love unmeasured,
A light in darkest night;
In Your embrace, we find our treasure,
In endless grace, take flight.
Hosanna! Lord, a little while,
And we shall see Thy face;
Shall bask in Thine eternal smile,
And sing Thy matchless grace.
So raise the hymn in endless song,
Through heights where angels soar;
In heart and soul, we all belong,
To You forevermore.
