O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go

Author: George Matheson Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #135 (1976) Topics: The Christian Life Assurance and Hope Lyrics: 1 O Love that wilt not let me go,I rest my weary soul in thee;I give thee back the life I owe,That in Thine ocean depths its flowMay richer, fuller be.2 O Light that followest all my way,I yield my flick'ring torch to thee;My heart restores its borrowed ray,That in thy sunshine's glow its dayMay brighter, fairer be.3 O Joy that seekest me through pain,I cannot close my heart to thee;I trace the rainbow thro' the rain,And feel the promise is not vainThat morn shall tearless be.4 O Cross that liftest up my head,I dare not ask to hide from thee;I lay in dust life's glory dead,And from the ground there blossoms redLife that shall endless be.Amen.

If We Could See Beyond Today

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #153 (1976) Topics: The Christian Life Assurance and Hope Lyrics: 1 If we could see beyond todayAs God can see,If all the clouds should roll away,The shadows flee,O'er present griefs we would not fret, Each sorrow we would soon forget,For many joys are waiting yet,For you and me.2 If we could know beyond todayAs God doth know,Why dearest treasures pass awayAnd tears must flow,And why the darkness leads to light,Why dreary days will soon grow bright;Some day life's wrong will be made right,Faith tells us so.3 If we could see, if we could know,We often say,But God in love a veil doth throwAcross our way;We cannot see what lies before,And so we cling to Him the more:He leads us till this life is o'er,Trust and obey.

Hark, hark, my Soul

Author: F. W. Faber Hymnal: Concordia #175 (1918) Topics: The Christian Life Aspiration and Hope First Line: Hark, hark, my soul, angelic songs are swelling Refrain First Line: Angels of Jesus, Angels of light Lyrics: 1 Hark, hark, my soul, angelic songs are swelling O’er earth’s green fields, and ocean’s wave-beat shore; How sweet the truth those blessed strains are telling Of that new life when sin shall be no more. Chorus: Angels of Jesus, Angels of light, Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night. 2 Onward we go, for still we hear them singing, "Come, weary souls, for Jesus bids you come;" And thro' the dark, its echoes sweetly ringing, The music of the gospel leads us home. [Chorus] 3 Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing, The voice of Jesus sounds o’er land and sea, And laden souls by thousands meekly stealing, Kind Shepherd, turn their weary steps to Thee. [Chorus] 4 Angels, sing on! your faithful watches keeping: Sing us sweet fragments of the songs above; Till morning’s joy shall end the night of weeping, And life’s long shadows break in cloudless love. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: PILGRIMS

We would see Jesus

Author: Anna B. Warner Hymnal: Concordia #176 (1918) Topics: The Christian Life Aspiration and Hope First Line: We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen Lyrics: 1 We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen Across the little landscape of our life; We would see Jesus, our weak faith to strengthen, For the last weariness, the final strife. 2 We would see Jesus, the great rock foundation Whereon our feet were set by sov'reign grace; Nor life nor death, with all their agitation, Can thence remove us, if we see His face. 3 We would see Jesus; other lights are paling, Which for long years we have rejoiced to see; The blessings of our pilgrimage are failing; We would not mourn them, for we go to Thee. 4 We would see Jesus; yet the spirit lingers Round the dear objects it has loved so long, And earth from earth can scarce unclasp its fingers; Our love to Thee makes not this love less strong. 5 We would see Jesus; this is all we're needing; Strength, joy, and willingness come with the sight; We would see Jesus, dying, risen, pleading; Then welcome day, and farewell mortal night.

You live in a palace, exist in a shack; we see you, the gardener, a tree on your back. 2 In millions alive, away and abroad; involved in our life you live down the road. Imprisoned in systems, you long to be free; we see you, Lord Jesus, still bearing your tree. 3 We hear you, O man, in agony cry; for freedom you march, in riots you die. Your face in the papers we read and we see. The tree must be planted by human decree. 4 You choose to be made at one with the earth; the dark of the grave prepares for your birth. Your death is your rising, creative your word; the tree springs to life and our hope is restored. Languages: English Tune Title: STANLEY BEACH
