Blessed are they henceforth that die

Author: R. F. Cottrell Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blessed are they henceforth that die Reclining on the Saviour's breast; They cease from every care and sigh, From all their labors they have rest. 2 No more they meet with cruel foes, No more with anxious care oppressed: They warred the conflict till life's close; Their toil is o'er, they sweetly rest. 3 The living saints have yet to meet And brave the tempter's utmost ire; The grave will be a blest retreat While earth is whelmed in troubles dire. 4 Thy righteous will be done, O God! To meet the foe and overcome, Or lay me down beneath the sod To rest till thou shalt call me home. Topics: Death and Resurrection Used With Tune: WOODWORTH

Fairest Of All The Lights Above

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Fairest of all the lights above, Thou sun, whose beams adorn the spheres, And with unwearied swiftness move, To form the circles of our years; 2 Praise the Creator of the skies, That dressed thine orb in golden rays: Or may the sun forget to rise, If he forget his maker’s praise! 3 Thou reigning beauty of the night, Fair queen of silence, silver moon, Whose gentle beams, and borrowed light, Are softer rivals of the noon; 4 Arise, and to that sovereign Power Waxing and waning honors pay, Who bade thee rule the dusky hours, And half supply the absent day! 5 Ye twinkling stars, who gild the skies, When darkness has its curtain drawn, Who keep your watch with wakeful eyes, When business, cares, and day, are gone; 6 Proclaim the glories of your Lord, Dispersed through all the heav’nly street, Whose boundless treasures can afford So rich a pavement for His feet. 7 Thou Heav’n of heav’ns, supremely bright, Fair palace of the court divine, Where, with inimitable light, The Godhead condescends to shine. 8 Praise thou thy great Inhabitant, Who scatters lovely beams of grace On every angel, every saint, Nor veils the luster of His face. 9 O God of glory, God of love, Thou art the sun that makes our days; With all Thy shining works above Let earth and dust attempt Thy praise!
