Forward! be our watch-word

Author: Henry Alford, 1810 - 71 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #565 (1958) Topics: Travellers Lyrics: 1 Forward! be our watchword, Steps and voices joined; Seek the things before us, Not a look behind; Burns the fiery pillar At our army's head; Who shall dream of shrinking, By our Captain led? Forward through the desert, Through the toil and fight; Jordan flows before us, Sion beams with light. 2 Glories upon glories Hath our God prepared, By the souls that love Him One day to be shared; Eye hath not beheld them, Ear hath never heard; Nor of these hath uttered Thought or speech a word. Forward, marching eastward Where the heaven is bright, Till the veil be lifted, Till our faith be sight. 3 Far o'er yon horizon Rise the city towers; Where our God abideth, That fair home is ours: Flash the streets with jasper, Shine the gates with gold; Flows the gladdening river, Shedding joys untold: Thither, onward thither, In the Spirit's might; Pilgrims, to your country, Forward into light! 4 To the Father's glory Loudest anthems raise; To the Son and Spirit Echo songs of praise; To the Lord almighty, Blessèd Three in One, Be by men and angels Endless honor done. Weak are earthly praises, Dull the songs of night; Forward into triumph Forward into light! Languages: English Tune Title: FORWARD (SMART)

Author: Henry Francis Lyte, 1793 - 1847 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #576 (1958) Topics: Travellers Lyrics: 1 Abide with me, fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens, Lord, with me abide; When other helpers fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O thou who changest not, abide with me. 3 I need thy presence every passing hour; What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me. A-men. 4 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if thou abide with me! 5 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes, Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies; Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Amen, Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE

Your harps, ye trembling saints

Toplady Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #595 (1961) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Travellers Lyrics: 1 Your harps, ye trembling saints, Down from the willows take; Loud to the praise of love divine Bid ev'ry string awake. 2 Though in a foreign land, We are not far from home; And nearer to our house above We ev'ry moment come. 3 His grace will to the end Stronger and brighter shine; Nor present things, nor things to come, Shall quench the grace divine. 4 When we in darkness walk, Nor feel the heav'nly flame, Then is the time to trust our God, And rest upon his Name. 5 Soon shall our doubts and fears Subside at his control; His loving-kindness shall break through The midnight of the soul. 6 Blest is the man, O God, That stays himself on thee: Who wait for thy salvation, Lord, Shall thy salvation see.
