Who like yourself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me. 3 I fear no foe, with you at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? Where, grave, your victory?

Not unto Us, O LORD of Heaven

Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: New Year - Old Year; New Year - Old Year Lyrics: 1 Not unto us, O LORD of heaven, but unto you be glory given; in love and truth you do fulfill the counsels of your sovereign will. Though nations fail your power to own, you are the King you reign alone. 2 The idol gods of heathen lands are but the work of human hands: they cannot see, they cannot speak, their ears are deaf, their hands are weak. Like them shall be all those who hold to gods of silver and of gold. 3 O Israel, trust in God alone, the LORD, whose grace and power are known; to him your full allegiance yield, and he will be your help and shield. All those who fear him God will bless; his saints have proved his faithfulness. 4 All you that fear him and adore, the LORD increase you more and more; both great and small who God confess, you and your children he will bless. You all are blest by him who made the heavens and earth's foundations laid. 5 The heavens are God's since time began, but he has given the earth to man. The dead praise not the living God, but we will sound his praise abroad. Yes, we will ever bless his name; O praise the LORD, his praise proclaim. Scripture: Psalm 115 Used With Tune: GAIRNEY BRIDGE Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.

Ere the vast and wide creation By Thy word was cased to be, Or the mountains held their station, Thou art God eternally. 2 Each succeeding generation At Thy mighty word appears; Thou dost count in time's duration One day as a thousand years. Death, with swift and sudden warning, Calls us from life's dream away, Like the grass, green in the morning, Withered ere the close of day. 3 Long the clouds of evil lower; Bless us now with gladsome days; Let Thy servants see Thy power, Let their children learn Thy praise. On us let the grace and beauty Of the Lord our God remain, Strengthen us for noble duty That our work be not in vain. Scripture: Psalm 90 Used With Tune: EMMELAR (RICHARDS)

Author: Alfred Tennyson Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 99 hymnals Topics: Old and New Year Lyrics: Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky, The flying cloud, the frosty light: The year is dying in the night; Ring out, wild bells, and let him die. Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go; Ring out the false, ring in the true. Ring out the grief that saps the mind, For those that here we see no more; Ring out the feud of rich and poor, Ring in redress to all mankind. Ring out false pride in place and blood, The civic slander and the spite; Ring in the love of truth and right, Ring in the common love of good. 405 Ring out old shapes of foul disease, Ring out the narrowing lust of gold; Ring out the thousand wars of old, Ring in the thousand years of peace. Ring in the valiant man and free, The larger heart, the kindlier hand; Ring out the darkness of the land, Ring in the Christ that is to be. Used With Tune: JORDAN
