God who spoke in the beginning

Author: Fred Kaan (b. 1929) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God who spoke in the beginning, forming rock and shaping spar, set all life and growth in motion, earthly world and distant star; he who calls the earth to order is the ground of what we are. 2 God who spoke through men and nations, through events long past and gone, showing still today his purpose, speaks supremely through his Son; he who calls the earth to order gives his word and it is done. 3 God whose speech becomes incarnate --Christ is servant, Christ is Lord!-- calls us to a life of service, heart and will to action stirred; he who uses man's obedience has the first and final word. Topics: God--the Father Creator; God--the Father Revealed in Jesus Christ Used With Tune: CORBRIDGE

Passing Onward, Quickly Passing

Author: Albert Midlane Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Passing onward, quickly passing; But, I ask thee, whither bound? Is it to the many mansions, Where eternal rest is found? Passing onward, passing onward, Tell me, sinner, whither bound? 2 Passing onward, quickly passing; Naught the wheels of time can stay; Sweet the thought that some are going To the realms of perfect day; Passing onward, passing onward, Christ their leader, Christ their way. 3 Passing onward, quickly passing; Many on the downward road; Careless of their souls immortal, Heeding not the call of God, Passing onward, passing onward, Trampling on the Savior’s blood. 4 Passing onward, quickly passing; Time its course will quickly run; Still we hear the fond entreaty Of the ever gracious One: "Come and welcome, come and welcome, ’Tis by Me that life is won."

The Bolted Door

Author: A. C. Hulse Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 11 hymnals First Line: God is knocking, ever knocking Lyrics: 1 God is knocking, ever knocking, At the heart’s thrice bolted door, Which we’re locking, ever locking, As we oft have done before; And we hear, yet hearing hear not, While we fast secure the door. 2 He is calling! He is calling! In a soft and gentle tone; To the fallen! and the failing! To the weary and the lone; Still they answer not the summons, Till the spirit-voice has flown. 3 He’s entreating! e’er entreating! By His mercy, by His care, Knocking! knocking! and repeating; Calling! calling! this His prayer: "Let Me enter!" Hear it, mortal! God is waiting at the door. Used With Tune: ANTOFAGASTA Text Sources: The New Song by Aaron Coons (New York: S. T. Gordon & Sons, 1875)
