For Those We Love Within the Veil

Author: William Charter Piggott Meter: 8.8.8.4 Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 64:4 Lyrics: 1 For those we love within the veil, who once were comrades of our way, we thank thee, Lord; for they have won to cloudless day. 2 Free from the fret of mortal years, and knowing now thy perfect will, with quickened sense and heightened joy they serve thee still. 3 O fuller, sweeter is that life, and larger, ampler is the air: eye cannot see nor heart conceive the glory there; 4 nor know to what high purpose thou dost yet employ their ripened powers, nor how at Thy behest they touch this life of ours. 5 And life for them is life indeed, the splendid goal of earth’s strait race; and where no shadows intervene they see thy face.

The only Perfect

Author: James Relly Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 64:6 First Line: Could I of all perfection boast Lyrics: 1 Could I of all perfection boast, As pure as that which Adam lost, I'd sacrifice it to thy blood, My Christ, my all, my only good. 2 Were I as Abram, strong in faith, And boldly stedfast unto death; I'd bid my faithfulness adieu, And Jesus only faithful view. 3 If I more meek than Moses were, Quite free from anger, strife, or fear; Yet this I gladly would despise, And Jesus's meekness only prize. 4 Was I as Job submissive still, Patient, resign'd in ev'ry ill; Yet all should fade before his cross, Compar'd with him, it is but dross. 5 If I was wise as Solomon, Like him with zeal and ardour shone; Like him I'd vain and foolish see My wisdom, zeal, yea all but Thee. 6 Had I an Angel's purity; Yea even this I would deny; Nor good confess in name or thing, But Christ my Lord, my life, my King.

Let purity awake, and faith, and hope, and love. But lo! We see the brightening sky; the golden morn is drawing nigh. Topics: Advent Used With Tune: CHRISTCHURCH
