God Our Help and Hope
Hymnal: The Psalter #247b (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Our Eternal Home First Line: O God, our help in ages past Lyrics:
1 O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home.
2 Under the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defenxe is sure.
3 Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting Thou art God,
To endless years the same.
4 A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone,
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
Bears all its sons away;
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
6 O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Be Thou our guard while troubles last,
And our eternal home. Scripture: Psalm 90 Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE
God Our Help and Hope
Jerusalem, my happy home
Author: J. Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #558 (1917) Topics: The Christian Life Time, Death, Eternity; Heaven Jerusalem; Heaven Longing for; Heaven Our Home; Heaven Worship in ; Home Heaven our; Jerusalem, heavenly; Longing For Heaven Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem, my happy home,
Name ever dear to me!
When shall my labours have an end,
In joy, and peace, and Thee?
2 When shall these eyes Thy heaven-built walls
And pearly gates behold,
Thy bulwarks with salvation strong,
And streets of shining gold?
3 There happier bowers than Eden's bloom,
Nor sin nor sorrow know:
Blest seats, through rude and stormy scenes
I onward press to you.
4 Why should I shrink at pain and woe,
Or feel at death dismay?
I've Canaan's goodly land in view,
And realms of endless day.
5 Apostles, martyrs, prophets there
Around my Saviour stand;
And soon my friends in Christ below
Will join the glorious band.
6 Jerusalem, my happy home,
My soul still pants for Thee!
Then shall my labours have an end,
When I Thy joys shall see.

Of all who travel to the sky,
Come, and with us, even us, abide,
Who would on Thee alone rely;
On Thee alone our spirits stay,
While held in life's uneven way.
2 Strangers and pilgrims here below,
This earth, we know is not our place;
But hasten through the vale of woe,
And, restless to behold Thy face,
Swift to our heavenly country move,
Our everlasting home above.
3 We've no abiding city here,
But seek a city out of sight;
Thither our steady course we steer,
Aspiring to the plains of light,
Jerusalem, the saints' abode,
Whose founder is the living God.
4 Through Thee, who all our sins hast borne,
Freely and graciously forgiven,
With songs to Zion we return,
Contending for our native heaven,
That palace of our glorious King,
We find it nearer while we sing.
5 Raised by the breath of love divine,
We urge our way with strength renewed;
The church of the first-born to join,
We travel to the mount of God;
With joy upon our heads arise,
And meet our Captain in the skies. Languages: English Tune Title: DURA

Amen! so let it be!
Life from the dead is in that word,
'Tis immortality!
Here is the body pent,
Absent from Him I roam,
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent
A day's march nearer home.
2 My Father's house on high,
Home of my soul, how near!
At times, to faith's unclouded eye,
Thy golden gates appear.
Ah! then my spirit faints
To reach the land I love
The bright inheritance of saints,
Jerusalem above!
3 "For ever with the Lord!"
Father, if 'tis Thy will,
The promise of that faithful word
Even here to me fulfil.
Be Thou at my right hand,
Then can I never fail;
Uphold Thou me, and I shall stand;
Fight, and I must prevail.
4 So when my latest breath
Shall rend the veil in twain,
By death I shall escape from death,
And life eternal gain.
Knowing as I am known,
How shall I love that word,
And oft repeat before the throne,
"For ever with the Lord!" Languages: English Tune Title: NEARER HOME

And time's wild wintry blast
Soon will be overpassed;
I shall reach home at last,
Heaven is my home.

Heaven is my home
I shall be glorified,
Heaven is my home;
There are the good and blest,
Those I love most and best;
And there I too shall rest,
Heaven is my home.

Heaven is my home;
Whate'er my earthly lot,
Heaven is my home;
And I shall surely stand
There at my Lord's right hand;
Heaven is my fatherland,
Heaven is my home. Languages: English Tune Title: FATHERLAND

With angels bright and fair;
There's no sin in the homeland,
And no temptation there:

And when I think of the homeland,
My eyes are filled with tears.

Are calling me away,
To the rest and peace of the homeland
And the life beyond decay;
For there's no death in the homeland,
There is no grief above;

wings its flight to realms of day,
this my song through endless ages,
