He Comes to Us As One Unknown
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (1926-); Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 14:22-33 Lyrics: 1 He comes to us as one unknown,
a breath unseen, unheard;
as though within a heart of stone,
or shriveled seed in darkness sown,
a pulse of being stirred.
2 He comes when souls in silence lie
and thoughts of day depart,
half-seen upon the inward eye,
a falling star across the sky
of night within the heart.
3 He comes to us in sound of seas,
the ocean's fume and foam;
yet small and still upon the breeze,
a wind that stirs the tops of trees,
a voice to call us home.
4 He comes in love as once he came
by flesh and blood and birth;
to bear within our mortal frame
a life, a death, a saving name
for every child of earth.
5 He comes in truth when faith is grown;
believed, obeyed, adored:
the Christ in all the Scriptures shown,
as yet unseen, but not unknown,
our Saviour and our Lord. Topics: Call and Vocation; Advent; Easter (third Sunday); Salvation/Redemption Used With Tune: LOBT GOTT, IHR CHRISTEN Text Sources: The Quest of the Historical Jesus, 1910

The hour is the closing of day;
In quiet he’s seeking the mountain
Where often he goeth to pray.

He windeth his way thro’ the village;
‘Twas Jesus, the Saviour of men,
His richest of blessings bestowing;
He comforts today, just as then.

With one and another to speak;
To bring them rich bounty and blessing,
Or some one neglected to seek. [Refrain]

The multitude drawing anear;
He dropeth some sweet word of comfort
That sorrowing, sad ones may hear. [Refrain]

The blind hear his voice and they see;
The lame ones walk forth at his bidding;
The sin-bound forever are free. [Refrain]

And night casts her mantel adown;
‘Tis then, only then, he is able
In quiet to pass from the town. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [He windeth his way thro’ the village]

How Firm a Foundation
Author: "K" Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2,130 hymnals First Line: How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord Scripture: Matthew 14:22-23 Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
is laid for your faith in God's excellent Word!
What more can be said than to you God hath said,
to you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 "Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed,
for I am thy God, and will still give thee aid;
I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
for I will be near thee, thy troubles to bless,
and sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
my grace, all sufficient, shall be thy supply;
the flame shall not hurt thee; I only design
thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine.
5 "The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose,
I will not, I will not desert to its foes;
that soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never, no, never, no, never forsake."
