When Love Is Found

Author: Brain Wren Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Topics: Seasons Festival of the Christian Home First Line: When love is found and hope comes home Lyrics: 1 When love is found and hope comes home, sing and be glad that two are one. When love explodes and fills the sky, praise God, and share our Maker's joy. 2 When love has flowered in trust and care, build both each day, that love may dare to reach beyond home's warmth and light, to serve and strive for truth and right. 3 When love is tried as loved-ones change, hold still to hope, though all seems strange, till ease returns and love grows wise through listening ears and opened eyes. 4 When love is torn, and trust betrayed, pray strength to love till torments fade, till lovers keep no score of wrong, but hear through pain love's Easter song. 5 Praise God for love, praise God for life, in age or youth, in calm or strife. Lift up your hearts! Let love be fed through death and life in broken bread. Scripture: Mark 10:8 Used With Tune: O WALY WALY

Appears in 29 hymnals Topics: The Christian Festivals New Year First Line: Help us, O Lord, behold, we enter Lyrics: 1 Help us, O Lord, behold, we enter Upon another year to-day: In Thee our hopes and thoughts now center, Renew our courage for the way: New life, new strength, new happiness We ask of Thee, oh, hear and bless. 2 May every plan and undertaking This year be all begun with Thee, When I am sleeping or am waking, Still let me know Thou art with me; Abroad do Thou my footsteps guide, At home be ever at my side. 3 Be this a time of grace and pardon; Thy rod I take with willing mind, But suffer naught my heart to harden, And let me now Thy mercy find; In Thee alone, my God, I live, Thou only canst my sins forgive. 4 And may this year to me be holy; Thy grace so fill my every thought, That all my life be pure and lowly And truthful as a Christian's ought; So make me, while yet dwelling here, Faithful and blest from year to year. 5 Jesus, be with me and direct me; Jesus, my plans and hopes inspire; Jesus, from tempting thoughts protect me; Jesus, be all my heart's desire; Jesus, be in my thoughts all day, Nor suffer me to fall away. 6 And grant, Lord, when the year is over, That it for me in peace my close; In all things care for me, and cover My head in time of fear and woes; So may I, when my years are gone, Appear with joy before Thy trone.

Brightest and best of the sons of the morning

Appears in 921 hymnals Topics: The Christian Festivals Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness, and lend us Thine aid; Star of the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. 2 Cold on His cradle the dewdrops are shining; Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall: Angels adore Him in slumber reclining, Maker, and Monarch, and Saviour of all! 3 Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion, Odors of Edom, and offerings divine? Gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine? 4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation; Vainly with gifts would His favor secure: Richer by far is the heart's adoration; Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. 5 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness, and lend us Thine aid: Star of the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
