Eternal light, eternal light!

Author: T. Binney (1798-1874) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 90 hymnals Topics: Pentecost 21 The Christian Hope Lyrics: 1 Eternal light, eternal light! how pure the soul must be when, placed within your searching sight, it does not fear, but with delight can face such majesty. 2 The spirits who surround your throne may bear that burning bliss; but that is surely theirs alone, since they have never, never known a fallen world like this. 3 There is a way for man to rise to that sublime abode: an offering and a sacrifice, a Holy Spirit’s energies, an advocate with God. 4 Such grace prepares us for the sight of holiness above; the child of ignorance and night may dwell in the eternal light, through the eternal love.

All my hope on God is founded

Author: J. Neander (1650-1680); R. Bridges (1844-1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7.3.3.7 Appears in 72 hymnals Topics: Pentecost 21 The Christian Hope Lyrics: 1 All my hope on God is founded, all my trust he shall renew; he, my guide through changing order, only good and only true. God unknown, he alone, calls my heart to be his own. 2 Human pride and earthly glory, sword and crown betray his trust; what with care and toil we fashion, tower and temple, fall to dust; but God's power hour by hour, is my temple and my tower. 3 Day by day our mighty giver grants to us his gifts of love; in his will our souls find pleasure, leading to our home above: Love shall stand at his hand, joy shall wait for his command. 4 Still from earth to God eternal sacrifice of praise be done; high above all praises praising for the gift of Christ his Son: Hear Christ's call one and all — we who follow shall not fall.

Your Hand, O Lord, in Days of Old

Author: Edward H. Plumptre, 1821-1891 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 178 hymnals Topics: Pentecost 21 (Year C) Lyrics: 1 Your hand, O Lord, in days of old Was strong to heal and save; It triumphed over pain and death, O'er darkness and the grave. To You they came, the blind, the dumb, The palsied and the lame, The lepers in their misery, The sick with fevered frame. 2 And lo, your touch brought life and health, Gave speech and strength and sight; And youth renewed and frenzy calmed Revealed you, Lord of light. And now, O Lord, be near to bless, Almighty as before, In crowded streets, by beds of pain, As by Gennes'ret's shore. 3 Oh, be our great deliverer still, O Lord of life and death; Restore and quicken, soothe and bless, With Your life giving breath. To hands that work and eyes that see Give wisdom's healing pow'r, That whole and sick and weak and strong May praise you evermore. Used With Tune: OLD 107TH

He lives in us, the Christ of God

Author: Michael Perry (born 1942) Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Pentecost 21 The Christian Hope Lyrics: 1 He lives in us, the Christ of God, his Spirit joins with ours; he brings to us the Father's grace with powers beyond our powers. And if enticing sin grows strong, when human nature fails, God's Spirit in our inner self fights with us, and prevails. 3 Our pangs of guilt and fears of death are Satan's stratagems — by Jesus Christ who died for us God pardons; who condemns? And when we cannot feel our faith, nor bring ourselves to pray, the Spirit pleads with God for us in words we could not say. 3 God gave his Son to save us all — no other love like this! then shall he ever turn away from those he marks as his? And God has raised him from the grave, in this we stand assured; so none can tear us from his love in Jesus Christ our Lord. Scripture: Romans 8 Used With Tune: SOUTHWELL (IRONS)
