Come, let us anew our journey pursue

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #623 (1917) Topics: Brevity of Life Lyrics: 1 Come, let us anew our journey pursue, Roll round with the year, And never stand still till the Master appear. 2 His adorable will let us gladly fulfil, And our talents improve, By the patience of hope, and the labour of love. 3 Our life is a dream; our time, as a stream, Glides swiftly away; And the fugitive moment refuses to stay. 4 O that each in the day of His coming may say, "I have fought my way through; I have finished the work Thou didst give me to do." 5 O that each from his Lord may receive the glad word, "Well and faithfully done! Enter into My joy, and sit down on My throne." Languages: English Tune Title: DERBE

O God, Our Help in Ages Past

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Voices United #806 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Brevity of Life 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 defence is sure 3 Before the hills in order stood, or earth received its 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 soon bears us all away; we 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 guide while troubles last, and our eternal home.

My soul, repeat His praise

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #73 (1899) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Brevity of Life Lyrics: 1 My soul, repeat His praise, Whose mercies are so great; Whose anger is so slow to rise, So ready to abate. 2 God will not always chide; And, when His wrath is felt, His strokes are fewer than our crimes, And lighter than our guilt. 3 High as the heavens are raised Above the ground we tread, So far the riches of His grace Our highest thoughts exceed. 4 His grace subdues our sins, And His forgiving love Far as the east is from the west Doth all our guilt remove. 5 The pity of the Lord, To those who fear His name, Is such as tender parents feel; He knows our feeble frame. 6 Our days are as the grass, Or like the morning flower; If one sharp blast sweep o'er the field, It withers in an hour. 7 But Thy compassions, Lord, To endless years endure; And children's children ever find Thy words of promise sure. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HEMINGFORD
