I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
Author: Henry W. Longfellow, 1807-1882 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 119 hymnals Topics: Lament Lyrics: 1 I heard the bells on Christmas Day
their old familiar carols play,
and wild and sweet the words repeat
of peace of earth, goodwill to men.
2 I thought how, as the day had come,
the belfries of all Christendom
had rolled along the unbroken song
of peace on earth, goodwill to men.
3 And in despair I bowed my head:
"There is no peace on earth," I said,
"for hate is strong and mocks the song
of peace on earth, goodwill to men."
4 Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
"God is not dead, nor doth he sleep;
the wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
with peace on earth, goodwill to men."
5 Till, ringing, singing on its way,
the world revolved from night to day,
a voice, a chime, a chant sublime,
of peace on earth, goodwill to men! Scripture: Isaiah 12:2 Used With Tune: WALTHAM
I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
Abide with me; fast falls the eventide
Author: Henry Francis Lyte (1793-1847) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1,731 hymnals Topics: Lament Lyrics: 1 Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!
when other helpers fail, and comforts flee,
help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
change and decay in all around I see;
O thou who changest not, abide with me.
3 I need thy presence every passing hour;
what but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
who like thyself my guide and stay can be?
through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.
4 I fear no foe with thee at hand to bless;
ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me.
5 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes;
shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies:
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me! Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: EVENTIDE
Abide with me; fast falls the eventide

Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence
Author: Gerard Moultrie, 1829-1885 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 181 hymnals Topics: Lament Lyrics: 1 Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
and with fear and trembling stand;
ponder nothing earthly minded,
for with blessing in his hand
Christ our God to earth descendeth,
our full homage to demand.
2 King of kings, yet born of Mary,
as of old on earth he stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
in the body and the blood,
he will give to all the faithful
his own self for heavenly food.
3 Rank on rank the host of heaven
spreads its vanguard on the way,
as the Light of light descendeth
from the realms of endless day,
that the pow'rs of hell may vanish
as the darkness clears away
4 At his feet the six-winged seraph,
cherubim, with sleepless eye,
veil their faces to the Presence,
as with ceaseless voice they cry.
