Lift Every Voice and Sing

Author: James Weldon Johnson, 1871-1938 Meter: Irregular Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: Celebration and Praise 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 through 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 met 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. Used With Tune: LIFT EVERY VOICE

Praise for Providence

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 85 hymnals Topics: Creation, Providence, Redemption and Salvation, celebrated in Songs of Praise First Line: Thy ways, O LORD, with wise design Lyrics: 1 Thy ways, O LORD, with wise design, Are fram'd upon thy throne above, And ev'ry dark or bending line, Meets in the centre of thy love. 2 With feeble light, and half obscure, Poor mortals thy arrangements view, Not knowing that the least are sure, And the mysterious just and true. 3 Thy flock, thy own peculiar care, Tho' now they seem to roam uney'd, Are led or driven only where They best and safest may abide. 4 They neither know, nor trace the way, But trusting to thy piercing Eye; None of their feet to ruin stray, Nor shall the weakest fail or die. 5 My favor'd soul shall meekly learn, To lay her reason at thy throne; Too weak thy secrets to discern, I'll trust thee for my guide alone. Scripture: Matthew 5:45 Text Sources: Rippon's Coll.
