Brief life is here our portion

Hymnal: Hymnal #491 (1871) Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion, Brief sorrow, short-lived care; The life that knows no ending, The tearless life is there. O happy retribution! Short toil, eternal rest; For mortals and for sinners 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 He Whom now we trust in Shall then be seen and known, And they that know and see Him Shall have Him for their own. 3 The morning shall awaken, And shadow shall decay, And each true-hearted servant Shall shine as doth the day; There God, our King and portion, In fulness of His grace, Shall we behold for ever, And worship face to face. 4 O sweet and blesséd country, The Home of Tod's elect! O sweet and blesséd country, That eager hearts expect! Jesu, in mercy bring us To that dear land of rest; Who art, with God the Father, And Spirit, ever blest. Languages: English

Brief life is here our portion

Author: Bernard of Cluny; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #527 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion; Brief sorrow, short-lived care; The life that knows no ending, The tearless life is there. 2 O happy retribution! Short toil, eternal rest, For mortals and for sinners A mansion with the blest. 3 That we should look, poor wanderers To have or home on high! That we should seek for dwellings beyond the starry sky! 4 And now we fight the battle, But then shall wear the crown Of full and everlasting And passionless renown. 5 For Thee, O dear, dear Country! Mine eyes their vigils keep; For very love, beholding Thy happy name, they weep; 6 The mention of thy glory In unction to the breast. And medicine in sickness And love, and life, and rest. 7 Thou hast no shore, fair ocean! thou hast no time, bright ay! Dear fountain of refreshment To pilgrims far away! 8 Upon the Rock of Ages They raise thy holy tower; Thine is the victor's laurel, And thine the golden dower. Amen.

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #557 (1918) Meter: 7.6.8.1 Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion; Brief sorrow, short-lived care; The Life that knows no ending, The tearless life, is there. O happy retribution! Short toil, eternal rest; For mortals and for sinners A mansion with the blest! 2 2 And now we fight the battle, But then shall wear the crown Of full and everlasting And passionless renown; And now we watch and struggle, And now we live in hope, And Zion in her anguish With Babylon must cope; 3 But He, whom now we trust in, Shall then be seen and known; And they that know and see Him Shall have Him for their own. And there is David's fountain, And life in fullest glow; And there the light is golden, And milk and honey flow. 4 The morning shall awaken, The shadows shall decay, And each true-hearted servant Shall shine as doth the day; Yes! God, my King and Portion, In fullness of his grace, We then shall see for ever, And worship face to face. 5 O sweet and blessed country, The home of God's elect! O sweet and blessed country That eager hearts expect! Jesus, in mercy bring us To that dear land of rest; Who art, with God the Father, And Spirit, ever blest. Topics: Heaven Languages: English
