My comfort still is this: May Jesus Christ be praised! 3 In heav'n's eternal bliss The loveliest strain is this: May Jesus Christ be praised! The pow'rs of darkness fear When this sweet chant they hear: May Jesus Christ be praised! 8 Be this, while life is mine, My canticle divine: May Jesus Christ be praised!

Now the Day is Over

Author: Sabine Baring-Gould, 1834-1924 Hymnal: RHC #12 (1970) Lyrics: 1 Now the day is over, Night is drawing nigh; Shadows of the evening Steal across the sky. 2 Jesus, give the weary Calm and sweet repose; With Thy tend'rest blessing May our eyelids close. 3 Grant to little children Visions bright of Thee; Guard the sailors tossing On the deep blue sea. 4 Thru the long night watches May Thine angels spread Their white wings above me, Watching round my bed. 5 When the morning wakens, Then may I arise Pure and fresh and sinless In Thy holy eyes.

Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be? Thru cloud and sunshine, O abide with me! 4 Hold Thou Thy word before my closing eyes, Shine thru the gloom,and point me to the skies; Heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee - In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!

How Shall I Sing That Majesty

Author: John Mason, c. 1645-94 Hymnal: RHC #15 (1970) Lyrics: 1 How shall I sing that majesty Which angels do admire? Let dust in dust and silence lie; Sing, sing, ye heavenly choir. Thousands of thousands stand around Thy throne, O God most high; Ten thousand times ten thousand sound Thy praise; but who am I? 2 Thy brightness unto them appears, Whilst I Thy footsteps trace; A sound of God comes to my ears, But they behold Thy face. They sing because Thou art their Sun; Lord, send a beam on me; For where heaven is but once begun There Hallelujahs be. 3 Enlighten with faith’s light my heart, Inflame it with love’s fire; Then shall I sing and bear a part With that celestial choir. I shall, I fear, be dark and cold, With all my fire and light; Yet when Thou dost accept their gold, Lord, treasure up my mite. 4 How great a being, Lord, is Thine, Which doth all beings keep! Thy knowledge is the only line To sound so vast a deep. Thou art a sea without a shore, A sun without a sphere; Thy time is now and evermore, Thy place is everywhere.

All on earth Thy scepter claim, All in heav'n above adore Thee: Infinite Thy vast domain, Everlasting is Thy reign. 2 Hark the loud celestial hymn Angel choirs above are raising; Cherubim and Seraphim, In unceasing chorus praising, Fill the heav'ns with sweet accord - Holy, holy, holy Lord! 3 Lo, the apostolic train Join Thy sacred name to hallow; Prophets swell the glad refrain, And the white-robed martyrs follow; And from morn to set of sun, Thru the Church the song goes on. 4 Holy Father, Holy Son, Holy Spirit, Three we name Thee; While in essence only One, Undivided God we claim Thee, And adoring bend the knee, While we sing our praise to Thee.

All People That on Earth Do Dwell

Author: William Kethe Hymnal: RHC #20 (1970) Lyrics: 1 All people that on earth do dwell, Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice; Him serve with fear, His praise forth-tell, Come ye before Him and rejoice. 2 Know that the Lord is God indeed: Without our aid He did us make; We are his folk, He doth us feed, And for His sheep He doth us take. 3 O enter then His gates with praise, Approach with joy His courts unto; Praise, laud, and bless His Name always, For it is seemly so to do. 4 For why? the Lord our God is good, His mercy is forever sure: His truth at all times firmly stood, And shall from age to age endure.
