Take Thou My Hand, O Father
Author: Herman Brückner, 1866-1942; Julie K. Hausmann Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #444 (1974) Meter: 7.4.7.4 D Scripture: Hebrews 11:16 Lyrics: 1 Take Thou my hand, dear Father,
And lead Thou me,
Until my journey endeth, Eternally,
I dwell with Thee.
Alone I will not wander
One single day;
Be Thou my true companion
And with me stay.
2 O cover with Thy mercy
My poor, weak heart!
Let every thought rebellious
From me depart.
Permit Thy child to linger
Here at Thy feet,
And blindly trust Thy goodness
With faith complete.
3 Tho' naught of Thy great power
May move my soul,
With Thee thro' night and darkness
I reach the goal.
Take then my hands, O Father,
And lead Thou me,
Until my journey endeth
Eternally.
Amen.

Hail, Alpha and Omega, Hail
Author: John Cennick Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #703 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Hebrews 11 Lyrics: 1 Hail, Alpha and Omega, hail,
O Author of our faith,
the Finisher of all our hopes,
the Truth, the Life, the Path.
2 Hail, First and Last, the great I Am,
in whom we live and move;
increase our little spark of faith,
and fill our hearts with love.
3 O let that faith which you have taught
be treasured in our breast,
the evidence of unseen joys,
the substance of our rest.
4 Then shall we go from strength to strength,
from grace to greater grace,
from each degree of faith to more,
till we behold your face.

In our day of thanksgiving
Author: William Henry Draper, 1855-1933 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #324 (2000) Meter: Irregular Scripture: Hebrews 11:13-16 First Line: In our day of thanksgiving one psalm let us offer Lyrics: 1 In our day of thanksgiving one psalm let us offer
for the saints who before us have found their reward;
when the shadow of death fell upon them, we sorrowed,
but now we rejoice that they rest in the Lord.
2 In the morning of life, and at noon, and at even,
he called them away from our worship below;
but not till his love, at the font and the altar,
supplied them with grace for the way they should go.
3 These stones that have echoed their praises are holy,
and dear is the ground where their feet have once trod;
yet here they confessed they were strangers and pilgrims,
and still they were seeking the city of God.
4 Sing praise, then, for all who here sought and here found him,
whose journey is ended, whose perils are past;
they believed in the light; and its glory is round them,
where the clouds of earth’s sorrows are lifted at last.

Beams of Heaven (Some Day)
Author: Charles A. Tindley, 1851-1933 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #382 (2011) Meter: 7.7.7.7.8.8.9.6 with refrain Scripture: Hebrews 11:16 First Line: Beams of heaven, as I go Refrain First Line: I do not know how long 'twill be Lyrics: 1 Beams of heaven, as I go,
Through this wilderness below,
Guide my feet in peaceful ways,
Turn my midnights into days;
When in the darkness I would grope,
Faith always sees a star of hope,
And soon from all life's grief and danger,
I shall be free some day.
Refrain:
I do not know how long 'twill be,
Nor what the future holds for me,
But this I know, if Jesus leads me,
I shall get home some day.
2 Oftentimes my sky is clear,
Joy abounds without a tear,
Though a day so bright begun,
Clouds may hide tomorrow's sun.
There'll be a day that's always bright,
A day that never yields to night,
And in its light the streets of glory
I shall behold some day. [Refrain]
3 Harder yet may be the fight,
Right may often yield to might,
Wickedness awhile may reign,
Satan's cause may seem to gain:
There is a God that rules above,
With hand of pow'r and heart of love;
If I am right, He'll fight my battle,
I shall have peace some day. [Refrain]
4 Burdens now may crush me down,
Disappointments all around,
Troubles speak in mournful sigh,
Sorrow through a tear-stained eye:
There is a world where pleasure reigns,
No mourning soul shall roam its plains,
And to that land of peace and glory
I want to go some day. [Refrain] Topics: The Christian Life Struggle and Guidance; Hope Languages: English Tune Title: SOME DAY

I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above
Author: Cecil Spring-Rice, 1859-1919 Hymnal: Common Praise #355 (2000) Meter: 13.13.13.13.13.13 Scripture: Hebrews 11:14-16 Lyrics: 1 I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love:
the love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
that lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
the love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
the love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
2 And there's another country I've heard of long ago,
most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
we may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
and soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
and her ways are ways of gentleness and all her paths are peace. Topics: National Languages: English Tune Title: THAXTED
