%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % % This file is a part of the Open Hymnal Project to create a freely % distributable, downloadable database of Christian hymns, spiritual % songs, and prelude/postlude music. This music is to be distributed % as complete scores (words and music), using all accompaniment parts, % in formats that are easily accessible on most computer OS's and which % can be freely modified by anyone. The current format of choice is the % "ABC Plus" format, favored by folk music distributors on the internet. % All scores will also be converted into pdf, MIDI, and mp3 formats. % Some advanced features of ABC Plus are used, and for accurate % translation to a printed score, please consider using "abcm2ps" % version 4.10 or later. I am doing my best to create a final product % that is "Hymnal-quality", and could feasibly be used as the basis for % a printed church hymnal. % % The maintainer of the Open Hymnal Project is Brian J. Dumont (brian % dot j dot dumont at gmail dot com). I have gone through serious efforts % to make sure that no copyright mistakes make it into this database. % If I am in error, please inform me as soon as possible. % % This entire effort has used only free software, and I am indebted to % the efforts of many other individuals, including the authors of % the various ABC and ABC Plus software. Undoubtedly, I am also indebted % to all of the great Christians who wrote these hymns. % % This database comes with no guarantees whatsoever. % % I would love to get email from anyone who uses the Open Hymnal, and % I will take requests for hymns to add. My decision of whether to % add a hymn will be based on these criteria (in the following order): % 1) It must be in the public domain or freely distributable % 2) It must be a Christian piece % 3) Whether I have access to a printed copy of the music (surprisingly, % a MIDI file is usually a terrible source) % 4) Whether I like the hymn :) % % If you would like to contribute to the Open Hymnal Project, please % send an email to me, I would love the help! PLEASE EMAIL ME IF YOU % FIND ANY MISTAKES, no matter how small. I want to ensure that every % slur, stem, hyphenation, and punctuation mark is correct; and I'm sure % that there must be mistakes right now. % % Open Hymnal Project, 2010 Edition % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % PAGE LAYOUT % %%pagewidth 21.6000cm %%pageheight 27.9000cm %%scale 0.750000 %%staffsep 1.60000cm %%exprabove false %%measurebox false %OHSCRIP Rev 21:18-23, 2Cor 4:17-18, Rev 7:9-17, Is 60:19-20 %OHTOPICS {Angels [2]}, {Anticipation}, {Brevity of Life [5]}, {Church in Heaven (Church Victorious/Church Triumphant)}, {Church on Earth (Church Militant)}, {Consecration}, {Cross [9]}, {Eternal Life}, {God, Care of}, {Heaven}, {Hope}, {Israel}, {Jesus [2-4]}, {Joy}, {Martyrs [2]}, {Presence}, {Security [12]}, {Victory} %OHCATEGORY HEAVEN %OHMETRICAL 7 6 7 6 7 6 7 6 %OHCOMPLEXITY 1 %OHCOMPOSER Ewing, Alexander C.

That we should look, poor wanderers, to have our home on high! W: That worms should seek for dwellings beyond the starry sky! W: And now we fight the battle, but then shall wear the crown W: Of full and everlasting, and passionless renown. W: W: 7. And how we watch and struggle, and now we live in hope, W: And Zion in her anguish with Babylon must cope; W: But he whom now we trust in shall then be seen and known, W: And they that know and see Him shall have Him for their own. W: W: 8. For thee, O dear, dear country, mine eyes their vigils keep; W: For very love, beholding, thy happy name, they weep: W: The mention of thy glory is unction to the breast, W: And medicine in sickness, and love, and life, and rest. W: W: 9. O one, O only mansion! O paradise of joy! W: Where tears are ever banished, and smiles have no alloy; W: The cross is all thy splendor, the Crucified thy praise, W: His laud and benediction thy ransomed people raise. W: W: 10. Jerusalem the glorious! Glory of the elect! W: O dear and future vision that eager hearts expect! W: E'en now by faith I see thee, e'en here thy walls discern; W: To thee my thoughts are kindled, and strive, and pant, and yearn. W: W: 11. Jerusalem, the only, that look'st from heaven below, W: In thee is all my glory, in me is all my woe! W: And though my body may not, my spirit seeks thee fain, W: Till flesh and earth return me to earth and flesh again. W: W: 12. Jerusalem, exulting on that securest shore, W: I hope thee, wish thee, sing thee, and love thee evermore! W: I ask not for my merit: I seek not to deny W: My merit is destruction, a child of wrath am I. W: W: 13. But yet with faith I venture and hope upon the way, W: For those perennial guerdons I labor night and day. W: The best and dearest Father Who made me, and Who saved, W: Bore with me in defilement, and from defilement laved. W: W: 14. When in His strength I struggle, for very joy I leap; W: When in my sin I totter, I weep, or try to weep: W: And grace, sweet grace celestial, shall all its love display, W: And David's royal fountain purge every stain away. W: W: 15. O sweet and blessèd country, shall I e'er see thy face? W: O sweet and blessèd country, shall I e'er win thy grace? W: I have the hope within me to comfort and to bless! W: O shall I e'er win the prize? O tell me, tell me, Yes!
