in Christ they have eternal life,
released from all the bonds of time.

we rise above our natural grief,
and witness to a stricken world
the strength and splendor of belief. Languages: English Tune Title: MARYTON

If Death My Friend and Me Divide
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #656 (1989) Topics: The Sacraments and Rites of the Church Funeral and Memorial Service; Funerals and Memorial Services; Funerals and Memorial Services Lyrics: 1 If death my friend and me divide,
thou dost not, Lord, my sorrow chide,
or frown my tears to see;
restrained from passionate excess,
thou bidst me mourn in calm distress
for them that rest in thee.
2 I feel a strong immortal hope,
which bears my mournful spirit up
beneath its mountain load;
redeemed from death, and grief, and pain,
I soon shall find my friend again
within the arms of God.
3 Pass a few fleeting moments more
and death the blessing shall restore
which death has snatched away;
for me thou wilt the summons send,
and give me back my parted friend
in that eternal day.

I'll Praise My Maker While I've Breath
Author: Isaac Watts; John Wesley Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #60 (1989) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: The Sacraments and Rites of the Church Funeral and Memorial Service; Funerals and Memorial Services Lyrics: 1 I'll praise my Maker while I've breath;
and when my voice is lost in death,
praise shall employ my nobler powers.
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
while life, and thought, and being last,
or immortality endures.
2 Happy are they whose hopes rely
on Israel's God, who made the sky
and earth and seas, with all their train;
whose truth for ever stands secure,
who saves th'oppressed and feeds the poor,
for none shall find God's promise vain.
3 The Lord pours eyesight on the blind;
the Lord supports the fainting mind
and sends the laboring conscience peace.
God helps the stranger in distress,
the widow and the fatherless,
and grants the prisoner sweet release.
4 I'll praise my God who lends me breath;
and when my voice is lost in death,
praise shall employ my nobler powers.
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
while life, and thought, and being last,
or immortality endures. Scripture: Psalm 146 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 113TH

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #117 (1989) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Sacraments and Rites of the Church Funeral and Memorial Service; Funerals and Memorial Services Lyrics: 1. O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home!
2. Under the shadow of thy throne,
still may we dwell secure;
sufficient is thine arm alone,
and our defense is sure.
3. Before the hills in order stood,
or earth received her frame,
from everlasting, thou art God,
to endless years the same.
4. A thousand ages, in thy sight,
are like an evening gone;
short as the watch that ends the night,
before the rising sun.
5. Time, like an ever rolling stream,
bears all who breathe away;
they fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.
6. O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come;
be thou our guide while life shall last,
and our eternal home.
