The saints of God! their conflict past

A-men. 4 The saints of God their vigil keep, While yet their mortal bodies sleep, Till from the dust they too shall rise And soar triumphant to the skies: O happy saints, rejoice and sing; He quickly comes, your Lord and King! 5 O God of saints! to thee we cry; O Saviour! plead for us on high; O Holy Ghost! our guide and friend, Grant us thy grace till life shall end; That with all saints our rest may be In that bright Paradise with thee!

All Baptized Beneath the Cloud

Author: Christopher Idle Hymnal: Singing the New Testament #152 (2008) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Tune Key: g minor Lyrics: 1 All baptized beneath the cloud, all baptized through surging waves; all sustained by heaven's bread, living streams from God who saves. Yet so many meet their end, live for pleasure, lose the path; few will see God's holy land, many fall beneath his wrath. 2 And is Israel's story ours? Doomed are all who think they stand, if we worship this world's powers, scorn the riches from God's hand. What a past to leave behind, what a future lies ahead! Welcome, all who seek and find Jesus, risen from the dead!

Thou, the Father’s only Son, Thou, His own Anointed One. Thou dost ask Him--can it be? “Why hast Thou forsaken Me?” 4 Lord, should fear and anguish roll darkly o’er my sinful soul, Thou, who once wast thus bereft that Thine own might ne’er be left-- teach me by that bitter cry in the gloom to know Thee nigh.
