Why do we mourn departing Friends?

Appears in 523 hymnals Topics: Thanksgiving for a Victory Lyrics: 1 Why do we mourn departing Friends? Or shake at Death's Alarms? 'Tis but the Voice that Jesus sends To call them to his Arms. 2 Are we not tending upward too, As fast as Time can move? Nor should we wish the Hours more slow To keep us from our Love. 3 Why should we tremble to convey Their Bodies to the Tomb? There the dear Flesh of Jesus lay, And left a long Perfume. 4 The Graves of all his Saints he blest, And soften'd every Bed: Where should the dying Members rest, But with the dying Head? 5 Thence he arose, ascending high, And shew'd our Feet the Way: Up to the Lord our Flesh shall fly, At the great Rising Day. 6 Then let the last loud Trumpet sound, And bid our Kindred rise; Awake, ye Nations under Ground, Ye Saints, ascend the Skies.

Fields glow with ruddy grain, And we must now be keeping Our harvest feast again; With voice of joy and singing, Our praise to God shall rise, Who, while the seed was springing, Rained blessings from the skies. 2. Thine, Father, is the river That maketh rich the earth; Thro' Thee, O gracious Giver, The buried seed had birth: Thou, on the furrows raining, Didst make them soft with show'rs, The thirsty crops maintaining, Through silent summer hours. 3. The year, by Thee anointed, Is now with goodness crowned, Robed in the robes appointed, With gladness girded round: We thank Thee for the blessing Which meets us on our way, And come, Thy love confessing, With happy hearts today.

Author: George Herbert, 1593-1633 Meter: 7.4.7.4 D Appears in 62 hymnals Topics: General Hymns Praise and Thanksgiving Lyrics: 1 King of glory, King of peace, I will love thee; and, that love may never cease, I will move thee. Thou hast granted my request, thou hast heard me; thou didst note my working breast, thou hast spared me. 2 Wherefore with my utmost art I will sing thee, and the cream of all my heart I will bring thee. Though my sins against me cried, thou didst clear me, and alone, when they replied, thou didst hear me. 3 Seven whole days, not one in seven, I will praise thee; in my heart, though not in heaven, I can raise thee. Small it is, in this poor sort to enrol thee: e'en eternity's too short to extol thee. Used With Tune: GWALCHMAI
