When on my day of life the night is falling

Author: J. G. Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #468b (1917) Topics: The Christian Life Aspiration and Prayer Lyrics: 1 When on my day of life the night is falling, And in the winds from unsunned spaces blown I hear far voices out of darkness calling My feet to paths unknown-- 2 Thou, who hast made my home of life so pleasant, Leave not its tenant when its walls decay; O Love Divine, O Helper ever present, Be Thou my strength and stay! 3 Be near me when all else is from me drifting Earth, sky, home's pictures, days of shade and shine, And kindly faces to my own uplifting The love which answers mine. 4 I have but Thee, my Father! let Thy Spirit Be with me then to comfort and uphold; No gate of pearl, no branch of palm I merit, Nor street of shining gold. 5 Suffice it if my good and ill unreckoned, And both forgiven through Thy abounding grace I find myself by hands familiar beckoned Unto my fitting place. 6 Some humble door among Thy many mansions, Some sheltering shade where sin and striving cease, And flows for ever through heaven's green expansions The river of Thy peace. 7 There from the music round about me stealing I fain would learn the new and holy song. And find at last, beneath Thy trees of healing, The life for which I long. Languages: English Tune Title: MOUNT ALLISON

Rejoice, Believer, in the Lord

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #469 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Faith and Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, believer, in the Lord, who makes your cause his own; the hope that's built upon his work shall ne'er be overthrown. 2 Though many foes beset your road, and feeble is your arm, your life is hid with Christ in God beyond the reach of harm. 3 Weak as you are, you shall not faint or fainting, shall not die, Jesus, the strength of ev'ry saint, will aid you from on high. 4 Thou unperceived by mortal sense, faith sees him always near, a guide, a glory, a defense; then what have you to fear? 5 As surely as he overcame and triumphed once for you, so surely you that love his name shall in him triumph too.

We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen

Author: Anna Bartlett Warner, 1820-1885 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #469 (1917) Topics: The Christian Life Aspiration and Prayer Lyrics: 1 We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen Across this little landscape of our life; We would see Jesus, our weak faith to strengthen For the last weariness, the final strife. 2 We would see Jesus, the great rock foundation Whereon our feet were set with sovereign grace: Nor life nor death, with all their agitation, Can thence remove us, if we see His face. 3 We would see Jesus: other lights are paling, Which for long years we have rejoiced to see; The blessings of our pilgrimage are failing: We would not mourn them, for we go to Thee. 4 We would see Jesus: yet the spirit lingers Round the dear objects it has loved so long, And earth from earth can scarce unclasp its fingers; Our love to Thee makes not this love less strong. 5 We would see Jesus: sense is all too binding, And heaven appears too dim, too far away; We would see Thee, Thyself our hearts reminding What Thou hast suffered, our great debt to pay. 6 We would see Jesus: this is all we're needing; Strength, joy, and willingness come with the sight; We would see Jesus dying, risen, pleading; Then welcome day, and farewell mortal night.
