Vain Are the Hopes That Rebels Place
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7052 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Vain are the hopes that rebels place
Upon their birth and blood,
Descended from a pious race;
Their fathers now with God.
2. He from the caves of earth and hell
Can take the hardest stones
And fill the house of Abra’m well
With new-created sons.
3. Such wondrous power doth He possess
Who formed our mortal frame,
Who called the world from emptiness,
The world obeyed and came. Languages: English Tune Title: YORK
Vain Are the Hopes That Rebels Place
The Waits' Song
Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7101 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: The moon shines bright and the stars give a light Lyrics: 1. The moon shines bright and the stars give a light
A little before the day:
Our mighty Lord He looked on us,
And bade us awake and pray.
2. Awake, awake, good people all,
Awake, and you shall hear,
The Lord our God died on the cross
For us He loved so dear.
3. O fair, O fair Jerusalem,
When shall I come to thee?
When shall my sorrows have an end,
Thy joy that I may see?
4. The fields were green as green could be,
When from His glorious seat,
Our blessèd Father watered us,
With His heavenly dew so sweet.
5. And for the saving of our souls
Christ died upon the cross;
We ne’er shall do for Jesus Christ
As He hath done for us.
6. The life of man is but a span,
And cut down in its flower,
We’re here today, tomorrow gone,
The creatures of an hour.
7. Instruct and teach your children well,
The while that you are here;
It will be better for your soul,
When your corpse lies on the bier.
8. Today you may be alive and well,
Worth many a thousand pound;
Tomorrow dead and cold as clay,
Your corpse laid underground.
9. With one turf at thine head, O man,
And another at thy feet;
Thy good deeds and thy bad, O man,
Will altogether meet.
10. My song is done, I must be gone,
I can stay no longer here;
God bless you all, both great and small,
And send you a joyful new year! Languages: English Tune Title: THE WAITS SONG

Wake, Harp of Zion
Author: James Edmeston Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7104 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Wake, harp of Zion, wake again Lyrics: 1. Wake, harp of Zion, wake again,
Upon thine ancient hill,
On Jordan’s long deserted plain,
By Kedron’s lowly rill.
2. The hymn shall yet in Zion swell,
That sounds Messiah’s praise,
And thy loved name, Emmanuel,
As once in ancient days.
3. For Israel yet shall own her king,
For her salvation waits,
And hill and dale shall sweetly sing,
With praise in all her gates.
4. O hasten, Lord, these promised days,
When Israel shall rejoice,
And Jew and Gentile join in praise,
With one united voice! Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BERNARD (Richardson)

Walk in the Light
Author: Bernard Barton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7112 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Walk in the light: so shalt thou know Lyrics: 1. Walk in the light: so shalt thou know
That fellowship of love
His Spirit only can bestow
Who reigns in light above.
2. Walk in the light: and sin abhorred
Shall ne’er defile again;
The blood of Jesus Christ, thy Lord,
Shall cleanse from every stain.
3. Walk in the light: and thou shalt find
Thy heart made truly His
Who dwells in cloudless light enshrined
In whom no darkness is.
4. Walk in the light: and thou shalt own
Thy darkness passed away,
Because that light hath on thee shone
In which is perfect day.
5. Walk in the light: and e’en the tomb
No fearful shade shall wear;
Glory shall chase away its gloom,
For Christ has conquered there.
6. Walk in the light: and thine shall be
A path, though thorny, bright;
For God, by grace, shall dwell in thee,
And God Himself is light. Languages: English Tune Title: RICHMOND (Haweis)

Was It Enough?
Author: Neil Barham Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7121 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Was it enough, that God should die Lyrics: 1. Was it enough, that God should die
To take away my sin?
Enough to close the door of Hell,
And stop my falling in?
2. Enough, that I be righteous found,
Before His perfect view?
Enough, that Christ’s own deeds be mine?
Despite all I could do?
3. Enough that all my soul and mind
Transformed within should be?
Enough, my sin should be subdued,
And God should live in me?
4. No! Not enough! More would He do!
How deep His mercy runs:
That I, a treas’nous wretch, should be
Adopted as His son!
5. To wear His name, to feel His kiss,
To lie in that embrace,
What grand, mysterious gentleness
Shines in my Father’s face! Languages: English Tune Title: MARTYRDOM

Within the Churchyard, Side by Side
Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7152 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Within the churchyard, side by side,
Are many long low graves;
And some have stones set over them,
On some the green grass waves.
2. Full many a little Christian child,
Woman, and man, lies there;
And we pass near them every time
When we go in to prayer.
3. They cannot hear our footsteps come,
They do not see us pass;
They cannot feel the warm bright sun
That shines upon the grass.
4. They do not hear when the great bell
Is ringing overhead;
They cannot rise and come to church
With us, for they are dead.
5. But we believe a day shall come
When all the dead will rise,
When they who sleep down in the grass,
Will ope again their eyes.
6. For Christ our Lord was buried once,
He died and rose again,
He conquered death, He left the grave;
And so will Christian men.
7. So when the friends we love the best
Lie in their churchyard bed,
We must not cry too bitterly
Over the happy dead;
8. Because, for our dear Savior’s sake,
Our sins are all forgiv’n;
And Christians only fall asleep
To wake again in Heav’n. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ETHELDREDA

We Cannot Think of Them as Dead
Author: Frederick L. Hosmer Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7153 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. We cannot think of them as dead
Who walk with us no more;
Along the path of life we tread—
They have but gone before.
2. The Father’s house is mansioned fair
Beyond our vision dim;
All souls are His, and here or there
Are living unto Him.
3. But still their silent ministries
Within our hearts have place,
As when on earth they walked with us
And met us face to face.
4. Ours are they by an ownership
Nor time nor death can free;
For God hath given love to keep
Its own eternally. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. FLAVIAN
