Blest are the moments, doubly blest

Author: W. Wordsworth Appears in 11 hymnals Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 Blest are the moments, doubly blest, That drawn from this one hour of rest, Are with a ready heart bestowed Upon the service of our God! 2 Each field is then a hallowed spot, An altar is in each man's cot, A church in every grove that spreads Its living roof above our heads. 3 Look up to heaven, the industrious sun Already half his race hath run He cannot halt or go astray, But our immortal spirits may. 4 Lord, since his rising in the east, If we have faltered or transgressed, Guide, from Thy love's abundant source, What yet remains of this day's course; 5 Help with Thy grace, thro' life's short day, Our upward and our downward way; And glorify for us the west, When we shall sink to final rest.

Author: Johann Heermann; Miss Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 95 hymnals Topics: Missions Home Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our true and only Light, Illumine those who sit in night; Let those afar now hear Thy voice, And in Thy fold with us rejoice. 2 Fill with the radiance of Thy grace The souls now lost in error's maze, And all, O Lord, whose secret minds, Some dark delusion hurts and blinds. 3 And all who else have strayed from Thee, O gently seek! Thy healing be To every wounded conscience given, And let them also share Thy heaven. 4 O make the deaf to hear Thy Word, And teach the dumb to speak, dear Lord, Who dare not yet the faith avow, Though secretly they hold it now. 5 Shine on the darkened and the cold, Recall the wanderers to Thy fold, Unite all those who walk apart, Confirm the weak and doubting heart, 6 So they with us may evermore Such grace with wondering thanks adore, And endless praise to Thee be given By all Thy Church in earth and heaven. Amen. Scripture: John 8:12 Used With Tune: O JESU CHRIST, MEINS LEBENS LICHT

Chorus: The way of the cross leads home, The way of the cross leads home; It is sweet to know, as I onward go, The way of the cross leads home. 2 I must needs go on in the blood-sprinkled way, The path that the Savior trod, If I ever climb to the heights sublime, Where the soul is at home with God. (Chorus) 3 Then I bid farewell to the way of the world, To walk in it never more; For my Lord says “Come,” and I seek my home, Where He waits at the open door. (Chorus) Used With Tune: [I must needs go home by the way of the cross]
