O God, the Rock of Ages
Author: Edward H. Bickersteth Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #250 (1929) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1. O God, the Rock of Ages,
Who evermore hast been,
What time the tempest rages,
Our dwelling-place serene;
Before Thy first creations,
O Lord, the same as now,
To endless generations
The Everlasting Thou!
To endless generations
The Everlasting Thou!
2. Our years are like the shadows
O'er sunny hills that fly,
Or grasses in the meadows
That blossom but to die:
A sleep, a dream, a story
By strangers quickly told,
An unremaining glory
Of things that soon are old,
An unremaining glory
Of things that soon are old.
3. O Thou, who canst not slumber,
Whose light grows never pale,
Teach us aright to number
Our years before they fail.
On us Thy mercy lighten,
On us Thy goodness rest,
And let Thy Spirit brighten
The hearts Thyself hast blest,
And let Thy Spirit brighten
The hearts Thyself hast blest. Topics: The Christian Life Refuge Languages: English Tune Title: REVELATION

Consolation
Author: Charles W. Naylor Hymnal: Timeless Truths #610 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 First Line: Child of God's boundless mercy Lyrics: 1 Child of God’s boundless mercy,
Child of His tender love,
Is He not true forever?
Will He not faithful prove?
Hidden may be His purpose,
When thou dost weap and pray;
Silence may be the answer,
He may seem far away.
2 Canst thou not trust His silence?
Canst thou not trust and wait?
Over thee still He watcheth,
Help will not come too late.
He is as true when silent
As when His voice you hear;
When He seems farthest distant,
Still is His presence near.
3 Needful are all thy heartaches,
Blessings are in thy woes;
Burdens well-borne make stronger,
Loss will God’s grace disclose.
Drink thou the cup so bitter;
Love poured the draught for thee
Just to make sweet the sweeter,
Joy to more joyous be.
4 Wise is thy loving Father,
Precious to Him thou art;
Cast all thy fears behind thee,
Strengthen thy fainting heart.
Let Him work out His purpose,
He will do what is best;
Patiently wait and trust Him,
Thus shall thy soul be blest. Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 2:16 Tune Title: [Child of God's boundless mercy]
Consolation
Joy in Sorrow
Author: Jane F. Crewdson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3399 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 First Line: I've found a joy in sorrow Lyrics: 1. I’ve found a joy in sorrow,
a secret balm for pain,
A beautiful tomorrow
of sunshine after rain;
I’ve found a branch of healing
near every bitter spring;
A whispered promise stealing
o’er every broken string,
A whispered promise stealing
o’er every broken string.
2. I’ve found a glad hosanna
for every woe and wail;
A handful of sweet manna
when grapes of Eschol fail;
I’ve found a Rock of Ages
when desert wells are dry;
And, after weary stages,
I’ve found an Elim nigh,
And, after weary stages,
I’ve found an Elim nigh.
3. An Elim with its coolness,
its fountains, and its shade;
A blessing in its fullness,
when buds of promise fade;
O’er tears of soft contrition
I’ve seen a rainbow light,
A glory and fruition,
so near! yet out of sight,
A glory and fruition, so near!
yet out of sight.
4. My Savior, Thee possessing,
I have the joy, the balm,
The healing and the blessing,
the sunshine and the psalm;
The promise for the fearful,
the Elim for the faint,
The rainbow for the tearful,
the glory for the saint!
The rainbow for the tearful,
the glory for the saint! Languages: English Tune Title: CREWDSON
