Life That Knows No Ending
Author: G. Tabor Thompson Appears in 247 hymnals First Line: Brief life is her our portion Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion;
Brief sorrow, short-lived care;
That life that knows no ending—
The tearless life, is there.
O happy retribution;
Short toil, eternal rest;
For ev’ry son of Adam
A mansion with the blest.
2 And now we fight the battle,
But then shall wear the crown
Of full and everlasting
And passionless renown.
But they who now instruct us
Shall then be seen and known;
And they who know and see them
Shall have them for their own.
3 The morning shall awaken,
The shadows shall decay;
And each true hearted servant
Shall shine as doth the day.
There father, mother, children,
Shall see each other’s face;
And we behold forever
A happy human race. Used With Tune: [Brief life is her our portion]

O Head, Once Full of Bruises
O Blessèd Sun whose splendor
Author: Karl Johann Philipp Spitta; Richard Massie Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O blessèd Sun, whose splendor
Dispels the shades of night;
O Jesus, my Defender,
My Soul's supreme delight,
Though fortune should bereave me
Of all I love the best,
If Thou Thy love still leave me,
I freely give the rest.
2 I know no life divided,
O Lord of life, from Thee;
In Thee is life provided
For all mankind and me;
I know no death, O Jesus,
Because I live in Thee;
Thy death it is which frees us
From death eternally.
3 I fear no tribulation,
Since, whatsoe'er it be,
It makes no separation
Between my Lord and me.
If Thou, my God and Teacher,
Vouchsafe to be my own,
Though poor, I shall be richer
Than monarch on his throne.
4 If, while on earth I wander,
My heart is light and blest,
Ah, what shall I be yonder,
In perfect peace and rest?
O blessèd thought in dying!
We go to meet the Lord,
Where there shall be no sighing,
A kingdom our reward.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Communion with Christ Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER

Before the Cross of Jesus
Author: Ferdinand Q. Blanchard, 1876-1968 Meter: 7.6.8.6.7.6.8.6 Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Before the cross of Jesus
Our lives are judged today;
The meaning of our eager strife
Is tested by His Way.
Across our restless living
The light streams from His cross,
And by its clear, revealing beams
We measure gain and loss.
2 The hopes that lead us onward,
The fears that hold us back,
Our will to dare great things for God,
The courage that we lack,
The faith we keep in goodness,
Our love, as low or pure -
On all, the judgment of the cross
Falls steady, clear, and sure.
3 Yet humbly, in our striving,
O God, we face its test.
We crave the pow'r to do Thy will
With Him who did it best.
On us let now the healing
Of His great Spirit fall,
And make us brave and full of joy
To answer to His call. Topics: Challenge of Gospel; Commitment; Gospel Call and Response; Jesus Christ; Lent Scripture: Revelation 14:4-6 Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER

Spirit of God within me
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, 1926- Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God within me,
possess my human frame;
fan the dull embers of my heart,
stir up the living flame.
Strive till that image Adam lost,
new-minted and restored,
in shining splendour brightly bears
the likeness of the Lord.
2 Spirit of truth within me,
possess my thought and mind;
lighten anew the inward eye
by Satan rendered blind;
shine on the words that wisdom speaks
and grant me power to see
the truth made known to all in Christ,
and in that truth be free.
3 Spirit of love within me,
possess my hands and heart;
break through the bonds of self-concern
that seeks to stand apart:
grant me the love that suffers long,
that hopes, believes and bears,
the love fulfilled in sacrifice,
that cares as Jesus cares.
4 Spirit of life within me,
possess this life of mine;
come as the wind of heaven's breath,
come as the fire divine!
Spirit of Christ, the living Lord,
reign in this house of clay,
till from its dust with Christ I rise
to everlasting day. Topics: General Hymns The Holy Spirit Used With Tune: ST CHRISTPHER

We Hail Thee Now, O Jesus
Author: Frederick George Scott (1861-1944) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We hail thee now, O Jesus:
thy presence here we own,
though sight and touch have failed us,
and faith perceives alone.
Thy love has veiled thy glory
and hid thy power divine,
in mercy to our weakness,
beneath an earthly sign.
2 We hail thee now, O Jesus:
in silence hast thou come,
for all the hosts of heaven
with wonderment are dumb --
so great the condescension,
so marvellous the love,
which for our sakes, O Saviour,
have drawn thee from above.
3 We hail thee now, O Jesus:
for law and type have ceased,
and thou in each communion
art sacrifice and priest.
We make this great memorial
in union, Lord, with thee,
and plead thy death and passion
to cleanse and set us free.
4 We hail thee now, O Jesus:
for death is ever near,
and in thy presence only
its terrors disappear.
Dwell with us, sweetest Saviour,
and guide us through the night,
till shadows end in glory.
and faith be lost in sight. Topics: Eucharist; Eucharist; Funeral; Jesus, the Priest; Salvation/Redemption Scripture: Exodus 24:12-18 Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER

Pues yo soy pecador;
Se siente el alma triste
Y muerto el corazón.
La fuente necesito
Do siempre puedo hallar
La sangre que vertida
Me da justicia y paz.
2 Jesús, te necesito,
Pues yo muy pobre soy,
Y siendo peregrino
A Ti, mi amparo, voy.
Tu amor yo necesito
Para alentar mi fe,
Guiar mis pasos firmes
Y al fin lograr tu bien.
3 Jesús, te necesito,
Amigo sin igual,
Que siempre simpatízas
Conmigo en el penar.
Tu corazón amante
Entiende mi ansiedad,
Mis pruebas, mis pesares,
Y los compartirá. Topics: La Vida Cristiana Comunión con Cristo; Santa Comunión; Arrepentimiento y Confesión; Cruz y Consuelo; Repentance and Confession; Cross and Comfort; The Christian Life Communion with Christ; Holy Communion Used With Tune: SAINT CHRISTOPHER
