that from the hallowed page,
a lantern to our footsteps,
shines on from age to age.

received this gift divine;
and still that light is lifted
on all the earth to shine.
It is the chart and compass
that, all life’s voyage through,
amid the rocks and quicksands
still guides, O Christ, to you.

a lamp of purest gold
to bear before the nations
your true light, as of old;

by this our path to trace,
till, clouds and storms thus ended,
we see you face to face. Topics: The Church; Incarnation; Scripture; The Word Used With Tune: MUNICH

My former hopes are fled
Author: Cowper Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 130 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 1:19 Lyrics: 1 My former hopes are fled:
My terror now begins;
I feel, alas! that I am dead
In trespasses and sins.
2 Ah, whither shall I fly?
I hear the thunder roar:
The law proclaims destruction nigh,
And vengeance at the door.
3 When I review my ways,
I dread impending doom;
But hark! a friendly whisper says,
Flee from the wrath to come.
4 I see, or think I see,
A glimmering from afar,
A beam of day that shines for me,
To save me from despair.
5 Forerunner of the sun,
It marks the pilgrim's way;
I'll gaze upon it while I run,
And watch the rising day. Topics: The Christian System Condemnation; Trembling Solicitude

and faithful souls have yearned to see
on earth that kingdom's day.

not less to God belong;
and for the everlasting right
the silent stars are strong.
3 And lo, already on the hills
the flags of dawn appear;
gird up your loins, ye prophet souls,
proclaim the day is near:
4 The day in whose clear-shining light
all wrong shall stand revealed,
when justice shall be throned with might,
and every heart be healed:
5 When knowledge, hand in hand with peace,
shall walk the earth abroad,
the day of perfect righteousness,
the promised day of God. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Risen - Coming Again; Christian Year Advent; Justice and Peace; Kingdom of God Used With Tune: IRISH

O deep within my heart now shine,
And make Thee there an altar!

In love that cannot falter!

Doth possess me; turn and bless me;
Here in sadness
Eye and heart long for Thy gladness!
