How shall I sing to God

Author: Brian Arthur Wren, 1936- Hymnal: Together in Song #667 (1999) Meter: 6.7.4.4.5.6.6.9 Lyrics: 1 How shall I sing to God when life is filled with gladness, loving and birth, wonder and worth? I'll sing from the heart, thankfully receiving, joyful in believing. This is my song, I'll sing it with love. 2 How shall I sing to God when life is filled with bleakness, empty and chill, breaking my will? I'll sing through my pain, angrily or aching, crying or complaining This is my song, I'll sing it with love. 3 How shall I sing to God and tell my Saviour's story: passover bread, life from the dead? I'll sing with my life, witnessing and giving, risking and forgiving. This is my song, I'll sing it with love.

The gifts you now have given Have filled my heart with rest. O wondrous food of blessing, O cup that heals our woes, My heart, this gift possessing, In thankful song o'erflows! 2 My Lord, you here have led me Within your holiest place, And here yourself have fed me With treasures of your grace; And you have freely given What earth could never buy, The bread of life from heaven, That now I shall not die. 3 You gave me all I wanted, That food can death destroy; And you have freely granted The cup of endless joy. Ah, Lord, I do not merit The favor you have shown, And all my soul and spirit Bow down before your throne. 4 Lord, grant me that, thus strengthened With heav'nly food, while here My course on earth is lengthened, To serve you, Lord most dear. And when you call my spirit To leave this world below, I enter, through your merit, Where joys unmingled flow. Topics: Devotional Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

À Qui Donc Irions-Nous?

Author: Adrien Ladrierre, 1825-1902 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13898 Meter: 6.7.6.6 D Lyrics: 1 À qui donc irions-nous? Ce monde périssable, Domaine de Satan, n’est qu’un désert trompeur. Voudrions-nous bâtir nos maisons sur le sable? Non, ce n’est pas ainsi qu’on fonde son bonheur. 2 À qui donc irions-nous puiser la connaissance Du Dieu de vérité, de lumière et d’amour? Et qui nous donnerait la paix et l’assurance, Quand nous marchons ployés sous un fardeau trop lourd? 3 À qui donc irions-nous? Source toujours nouvelle De rafraîchissement pour nos coeurs altérés, Tes paroles, Seigneur, sont la vie éternelle: Nous les buvons, assis à tes pieds adorés. 4 À qui donc irions-nous? Ta voix pleine de charmes Nous dit: Ne craignez pas; confiez-vous en moi! Tu consoles nos coeurs et tu taris nos larmes: À qui donc irions-nous, si ce n’était à toi?
