O Jesus, Joy of Loving Hearts
Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 584 hymnals Topics: Easter 2 Year A Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, joy of loving hearts,
the fount of life, the light of all
from every bliss that earth imparts,
we turn, unfilled, to hear your call.
2 Your truth unchanged has ever stood;
you plead with all to call on you,
to those who seek you, you are good,
to those who find you, life is new.
3 We taste your ever-living bread,
and long to feast upon you still;
we drink of you, the fountainhead,
our thirsting souls from you we fill.
4 O Jesus, ever with us stay;
make all our moments calm and bright;
chase the bleak night of sin away;
shed o'er the world your holy light. Used With Tune: MARYTON Text Sources: 12th century
O Jesus, Joy of Loving Hearts
Abide with me, fast falls the eventide
Author: H. F. Lyte (1793-1847) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1,753 hymnals Topics: Easter 2 The Emmaus Road Lyrics: 1 Abide with me, fast falls the eventide;
the darkness deepens: Lord, with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away.
Change and decay in all around I see -
you never change, O Lord: abide with me!
3 I need your presence every passing hour:
what but your grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like yourself my guide and strength can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me!
4 I have no fear with you at hand to bless;
ills have no weight and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, your victory?
I triumph still if you abide with me.
5 Hold now your Word before my closing eyes;
shine through the gloom and point me to the skies!
Heaven's morning breaks and earth's vain shadows flee:
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me! Scripture: Luke 24:29 Used With Tune: EVENTIDE
Abide with me, fast falls the eventide

O thou of God to earth come down:
thee will I cherish, thee will I honour,

robed in the blooming garb of spring;

and fair the twinkling, starry host;
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer
than all the angels heaven can boast.

wondrously, Jesus, is found in thee;
none can be nearer, fairer or dearer
than thou, my Saviour, art to me. Used With Tune: CRUSADERS' HYMN (SCHÖNSTER HERR JESU) Text Sources: German, 1677; trans. Church Chorals and Choir Studies, 1850, alt.

The Day of Resurrection
Author: John of Damascus; John Mason Neale Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 538 hymnals Topics: Easter 2 Year A; Easter 2 Year A First Line: The day of resurrection! Lyrics: 1 The day of resurrection!
Earth, tell it out abroad;
the passover of gladness,
the passover of God!
From death to life eternal,
from earth unto the sky,
our Christ has brought us over,
with hymns of victory.
2 Our hearts be free of evil,
that we may see aright
the Christ in rays eternal
of resurrection light,
and, listening to the accents,
may hear so calm and plain
his own "All hail!" and, hearing,
may raise the victor strain.
3 Now let the heavens be joyful,
let earth its song begin,
the round world keep high triumph,
and all that is therein;
let all things seen and unseen
their notes in gladness blend,
for Christ indeed is risen,
our Joy that has no end. Used With Tune: ELLACOMBE

like the wideness of the sea;
there's a kindness in God's justice
which is more than liberty.
2 There is no place where earth's sorrows
are more felt than up in heaven;
there is no place where earth's failings
have such gracious judgement given.
3 There is plentiful redemption
in the blood that Christ has shed;
there is joy for all the members
in the sorrows of the Head.
4 Troubled souls, why will you scatter
like a crowd of frightened sheep?
Foolish hearts, why will you wander
from a love so true and deep?
5 For the love of God is broader
than the measures of the mind,
and the heart of the Eternal
is most wonderfully kind. Used With Tune: GOTT WILL'S MACHEN
