He Rose! O Morn of Wonder!

Author: Theron Brown, 1832-1914 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: He rose! O morn of wonder Lyrics: 1. He rose! O morn of wonder! They saw His light go down Whose hate had crushed Him under, A King without a crown. No plume, no garland wore He, Despised death’s Victor lay, And wrapped in night His glory, That claimed a grander day. 2. He rose! He burst immortal From death’s dark realm alone, And left its heavenward portal Swung wide for all His own. Nor need one terror seize us To face earth’s final pain, For they who follow Jesus, But die to live again. Used With Tune: WEBB

We Hail the Rising Day Star

Author: Richard W. Adams Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: We hail the rising Day Star - the lamp within our heart Lyrics: 1. We hail the rising Day Star—the lamp within our heart Has banished all our darkness, and bid the night depart. We felt our blind eyes open, and ceased our doubt-filled war, When first we did receive Him, the bright and morning star. 2. Now icy pride is melted, and shadows fled away; The sunrise is upon us, as stubborn hearts give way; The testimony certain, prophetic truth proclaim: Let light shine into darkness, erasing fear and shame. 3. With borrowed light reflecting the Spirit in our heart, We spread the glorious tidings, to Earth’s remotest part; Unseeing eyes will open, and deaf ears hear the voice: See in the east arising the best and perfect choice. 4. And when our task is over, our time on Earth is done, We lie down to await Him, the promised coming sun; Earth’s final dawn arising, with light from shore to shore, The bright eternal shining, the sun to set no more.

Dum Izrael' en Sinaj Tendumis

Author: Laurence G. Bernier; Liland Brajant Ros' Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Dum Izrael' en Sinaj tendumis, per Mose' Lyrics: 1. Dum Izrael' en Sinaj tendumis, per Mose' La Eternul' al ili parolon sendis, ke: "Sur mia flugilar' el Egipta lando mi Vin ĉiujn save portis: mi estas via Di'! 2. Samkiel la aglino instruas al idar' Ekflugi, mi patrinas al vi en amo, ĉar Vi estas miaj idoj, vin gvidas mia vol' — Mi ja patrinas al vi, min aŭdu, ho popol'!" 3. Se Dio do similas al agla la patrin' Kaj estas ankaŭ patro, imagu vin kaj min! Ni timas nek la rolojn, nek etikedojn plu — Se Dio ilin miksas, ni ne ĉikanu, ĉu? 4. Ja Dio ne virinas, nek estas Dio vir', Sed ambaŭ kaj alia, Vivanta Sankta Spir'. El ĉiuj rollimigoj nin liberigis Di' — Al kia libereco? — Tutsimple esti ni.

Our God Is Like an Eagle

Author: Laurence G. Bernier Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: When Israel camped in Sinai, then Moses heard from God: Lyrics: 1. When Israel camped in Sinai, then Moses heard from God: "This message tell my people, and give them this, my word: From Egypt I was with you, and carried on my wing, The whole of your great nation from slavery I did bring. 2. Just like a mother eagle, who helps her young to fly, I am a mother to you, your needs will I supply; And you are as my children, the ones who hear my voice, I am a mother to you, the people of my choice." 3. If God is like an eagle who helps her young to fly, And God is also Father, what then of you and I? We have no fear of labels, we have no fear of roles-- If God's own being blends them, we seek the selfsame goals. 4. Our God is not a woman, our God is not a man; Our God is both and neither, our God is I Who Am. From all the roles that bind us our God has set us free. What freedom does God give us? The freedom just to be. Topics: God the Inclusive Scripture: Exodus 20:2 Used With Tune: WEBB

Lift Up Your Eyes, Ye Christians

Author: C. K. Solberg Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Lift up your eyes, ye Christians, Behold the worldwide field Now ready for the harvest, Go make its precious yield. Arise, go forth to gather The fruit without delay! The ripened fields are waiting; This is your harvest day. 2 Lift up your eyes, ye Christians, The whole wide world to view: How plenteous the harvest, The laborers how few! How can you then be idle And linger by the way? Arise and join the reapers! This is your harvest day. 3 Lift up your eyes, ye Christians, And heed the Lord's command; Go, labor in His vineyard, And lend a helping hand! Like sheep without a shepherd So many go astray, Neglected they must perish; This is your harvest day. 4 Lift up your eyes, ye Christians, The harvest day is brief; O hear the cry of millions For rescue and relief! Let sacrifice and service Your life on earth portray; Help win the world for Jesus; This is your harvest day! 5 Lift up your eyes, ye Christians, Soon comes the gracious Lord; He comes to claim the faithful And give them His reward. Be faithful in your service And labor as you pray; For lo, the night is coming; This is your harvest day! Amen.

Aloft In Yonder Belfry

Author: H. Brueckner Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Aloft in yonder belfry Now hangs our hallowed bell; Whene'er we hear its message, O may we heed it well. Its voice, to us appealing In tones so rich and clear, Shall call us all together, God's holy Word to hear. 2 Its joyous peal resounding On happy festal days Shall move the congregation To sing a hymn of praise; And when a faithful member His pilgrimage must end, Then may its knell, tho' solemn, A wealth of comfort lend. 3 Thus shall our joys and sorrows Be mingled with its sound Till we in heaven's mansions God's holy throne surround, With many thousand voices To glorify the Lord, Whose name by men and angels Is worshiped and adored. Amen. Topics: Dedication Church Bell Used With Tune: WEBB
