Lift Every Voice and Sing
Author: James Weldon Johnson Hymnal: Zion still Sings #113 (2007) Meter: Irregular Topics: Burdens Lyrics: 1 Lift every voice and sing,
till earth and heaven ring,
ring with the harmonies of liberty;
let our rejoicing rise,
high as the listening skies,
let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith
that the dark past has taught us,
sing a song full of the hope
that the present has brought us;
facing the rising sun
of our new day begun,
let us march on till victory is won.
2 Stony the road we trod,
bitter the chastening rod,
felt in the days when hope unborn had died;
yet with a steady beat,
have not our weary feet,
come to the place
for which our fathers sighed?
We have come over a way
that with tears has been watered,
we have come, treading our path
thro' the blood of the slaughtered,
out from the gloomy past,
till now we stand at last
where the white gleam of our bright star is cast.
3 God of our weary years,
God of our silent tears,
thou who hast brought us thus far on the way;
thou who hast by thy might,
led us into the light,
keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our feet stray from the places,
our God, where we meet thee,
lest our hearts, drunk with the wine of the world,
we forget thee;
shadowed beneath thy hand,
may we forever stand,
true to our God, true to our native land. Languages: English Tune Title: LIFT EVERY VOICE

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546; Frederick H. Hedge, 1806-1890 Hymnal: Total Praise #119 (2011) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: Burdens Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God,
A bulwark never failing;
Our helper He amid the flood
Of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe
Doth seek to work us woe;
His craft and pow'r are great,
And, armed with cruel hate,
On earth is not his equal.
2 Did we in our own strength confide,
Our striving would be losing;
Were not the right One on our side,
The One of God's own choosing.
Dost ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is He,
Lord Sabaoth His name,
From age to age the same,
And He must win the battle.
3 And though this world, with devils filled,
Should threaten to undo us,
We will not fear, for God hath willed
His truth to triumph through us.
The prince of darkness grim,
We tremble not for him;
His rage we can endure,
For lo! his doom is sure,
One little word shall fell him.
4 That word above all earthly pow'rs,
No thanks to them, abideth;
The Spirit and the gifts are ours
Through Him who with us sideth;
Let goods and kindred go,
This mortal life also;
The body they may kill,
God's truth abideth still,
His kingdom is forever. Scripture: Psalm 18:2 Languages: English Tune Title: EIN' FESTE BURG
A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say (Oí la voz del Salvador)
Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889; Anonymous Hymnal: Santo, Santo, Santo #127 (2019) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Burdens Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"Come unto me and rest;
Lay down, O weary one, lay down
Your head upon my breast."
I came to Jesus as I was,
So weary, worn, and sad;
I found in him a resting place,
And he has made me glad.
2 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"Behold, I freely give
The living water; thirsty one,
Stoop down and drink and live."
I came to Jesus, and I drank
Of that life-giving stream;
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
And now I live in him.
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"I am this dark world’s light;
Look unto me, your morn shall rise,
And all your day be bright."
I looked to Jesus, and I found
In him my star, my sun;
And in that light of life I’ll walk
Till trav'ling days are done.

1 Oí la voz del Salvador
decir con tierno amor:
"¡Oh! ven a mí, no temas más,
cargado pecador!"
Cansado estaba, y sin tardar
a Cristo acudí,
Y luego dulce alivio y paz
por de él recibí.
2 Oí la voz del Salvador
decir: "Venid, bebed;
yo soy la fuente de salud
que apaga toda sed".
Con sed de Dios, del vivo Dios,
buscando al Emanuel,
lo hallé; mi sed él apagó,
y ahora vivo en él.
3 Oí su dulce voz decir:
"Del mundo soy la luz;
miradme a mí, y salvos sed;
hay vida por mi cruz".
Mirando a Cristo, luego en él
mi norte y sol hallé;
y en esa luz de vida,
yo feliz siempre andaré.
Por siempre viviré. Scripture: Matthew 11:28-29 Languages: English; Spanish Tune Title: VOX DILECTI
