O God, Our Help in Ages Past
One sweetly solemn thought
Author: Phebe Cary Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #877 (1873) Scripture: James 5:8 Lyrics: 1 One sweetly solemn thought
Comes to me o'er and o'er:
I'm nearer home to-day
Than I have been before.
2 Nearer my Father's house,
Where many mansions be;
Nearer the great white throne;
Nearer the crystal sea.
3 Nearer the bound of life,
Where burdens are laid down;
Nearer to leave the cross,
Nearer to gain the crown.
4 But lying dark between,
And winding through the night,
The deep and unknown stream!
Crossed ere we reach the light.
5 Jesus, confirm my trust;
Strengthen the hand of faith,
To feel thee when I stand
Upon the shore of death.
6 Be near me when my feet
Are slipping o'er the brink,
For I am nearer home,
Perhaps, than now I think. Topics: Life and Death; Nearing Home
One sweetly solemn thought
Oh, happy is the man who hears
Author: Logan Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #707 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: James 5:11 Lyrics: 1 Oh, happy is the man who hears
Instruction's warning voice,
And who celestial wisdom makes
His early, only choice.
2 For she hath treasures greater far
Than east or west unfold,
And her rewards more precious are
Than gems or stores of gold.
3 Her right hand offers to the just
Immortal, happy days;
Her left, imperishable wealth
And heavenly crowns displays.
4 She guides the young with innocence,
In pleasure's paths to tread;
A crown of glory she bestows
Upon the hoary head.
5 And as her holy labors rise,
So her rewards increase;
Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
And all her paths are peace. Topics: The Christian Life Honor and Influence; Happy is the Man that findeth Wisdom
Oh, happy is the man who hears

O thou, who at thy Eucharist didst pray
Author: William Turton, 1856-1938 Hymnal: Common Praise #318 (2000) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Scripture: James 5:19-20 Lyrics: 1 O thou, who at thy Eucharist didst pray
that all thy church might be for ever one,
grant us at every Eucharist to say
with longing heart and soul, 'Thy will be done':
O may we all one bread, one body be,
through this blest sacrament of unity.
2 For all thy church, O Lord, we intercede;
make thou our sad divisions soon to cease;
draw us the nearer each to each, we plead,
by drawing all to thee, O Prince of Peace:
thus may we all one bread, one body be,
through this blest sacrament of unity.
3 We pray thee too for wanderers from thy fold;
O bring them back, good Shepherd of the sheep,
back to the faith which saints believed of old,
back to the church which still that faith doth keep:
soon may we all one bread, one body be,
through this blest sacrament of unity.
4 So, Lord, at length when sacraments shall cease,
may we be one with all thy church above,
one with thy saints in one unbroken peace,
one with thy saints in one unbounded love:
more blessèd still, in peace and love to be
one with the Trinity in Unity. Topics: Maundy Thursday; Proper 18 Year A Languages: English Tune Title: SONG 1
O thou, who at thy Eucharist didst pray
O Christ, the Healer
Author: Fred Pratt Green (1903-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #291 (1998) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: James 5:13-20 First Line: O Christ, the healer, we have come Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored,
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamour to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 How strong, O Lord, are our desires,
how weak our knowledge of ourselves!
Release in us those healing truths
unconscious pride resists or shelves.
4 In conflicts that destroy our health
we diagnose the world's disease;
our common life declares our ills:
is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
5 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind. Topics: Healing Languages: English Tune Title: ANGELUS
