Ye Distant Lands, And Nations Near

Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Ye distant lands, and nations near, Behold your Savior God; The joyful news attentive hear, And spread it all abroad. 2 His opening lips and outstretched arms Invite you near His seat, Whilst on His face unnumbered charms In full perfection meet. 3 Let Israel all adore their Lord, His love their thoughts employ; The promises in Scripture stored Shall yield abundant joy. 4 “In righteousness have I declared, The Word shall not return, I will be honored, loved and feared, Through Mine anointed Son. 5 "Then look to me, and be ye saved, Through earth’s remotest bound; By sins and idols now enslaved, In Me your help is found."

A Little Ship Was on the Sea

Author: Dorothy A. Thrupp, 1799-1847 Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A little ship was on the sea; It was a pretty sight It sailed along so pleasantly, And all was calm and bright. 2 When, lo, a storm began to rise. The wind grew loud and strong; It blew the clouds across the skies; It blew the waves along. 3 And all but One were sore afraid Of sinking in the deep; His head was on a pillow laid, And He was fast asleep. 4 "We parish, Master! Master, save!" They cried. Their Master heard; He rose, rebuked the wind and wave, And stilled them with His word. 5 O well we know it was the Lord, The Saviour and the Friend, Whose care of those who trust His word Will never, never end.

Eternal Father, Who Can Tell?

Author: Robert Dawson, 1836-1906 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Eternal Father! who can tell Lyrics: 1 Eternal Father! who can tell The years of Thy right hand? Like sunbeams bright, but numberless, Or as the ocean’s sand. 2 Thine ageless age no limit knows, No dawn began Thy day, Nor evening shade shall ever fall Upon Thy glorious way. 3 All time is but a fleeting wave Upon Thy calm, deep sea, A fading leaf that feebly falls From life’s eternal tree. 4 Yet unto Thee, our fleeting years, Our fading days, are known, And every hour its message bears Up to th’eternal throne. 5 Old year, farewell! Thou’rt gone to God, Gone to record our life, Its poor success, its wasted hours, Its oft unworthy strife. 6 New year, all hail! Thou’rt come from God, Blest be thy dawning bright! Blest be thy swiftly fleeting hours! And blest thy evening light! 7 Into the hand of Him who died, Who evermore doth live, This strange and solemn New Year’s path In trustful prayer we give. 8 Enough for us to hear His voice, To feel His guiding hand, To know each step is bringing us Nearer the Better Land.

Do not I love Thee, O my Lord?

Author: Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 323 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Do not I love Thee, O my Lord? Behold my heart and see; And cast each idol from its throne, That dares to rival Thee. 2 Is not Thy Name melodious still To my attentive ear? Doth not each pulse with pleasure bound, My Saviour's voice to hear? 3 Hast Thou a lamb in all Thy flock I would disdain to feed? Hast Thou a foe, before whose face I fear Thy cause to plead? 4 Thou know'st I love Thee, dearest Lord; But O, I long to soar Far from the sphere of mortal joys, That I may love Thee more.

O Jesus, strong and pure and true

Author: William Walsham How, 1823-1897 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, strong and pure and true, before Your feet we bow; the grace of earlier years renew, and lead us onward now. 2 The joyous life that year by year within these walls is stored, the golden hope, the gladsome cheer, we bring to You, O Lord. 3 Our faith endow with keener powers, with warmer glow our love, and draw these faltering hearts of ours from earth to heaven above. 4 In paths our bravest ones have trod O make us strong to go, that we may give our lives to God in serving all below. 5 Scorn we the selfish aim or choice, and love's high precept keep: 'Rejoice with those that do rejoice and weep with them that weep.' 6 So hence shall flow fresh strength and grace, as from a full-fed spring, to make the world a better place, and life a worthier thing.
