O Safe to the Rock That Is Higher Than I

Author: William Orcutt Cushing, (1823-) Hymnal: HOoS1926 #600 (1926) Meter: 11.11.11.11 with refrain Lyrics: 1 O safe to the Rock that is higher than I, My soul in its conflicts and sorrows would fly; So sinful, so weary, Thine, Thine would I be; Thou blest Rock of Ages, I'm hiding in Thee. Refrain: Hiding in Thee, Hiding in Thee, Thou blest Rock of Ages, I'm hiding in Thee. 2 In the calm of the noontide, in sorrow's lone hour, In times when temptation casts o'er me its power; In the tempests of life, on its wide, heaving sea, Thou blest Rock of Ages, I'm hiding in Thee. [Refrain] 3 How oft in the conflict, when pressed by the foe, I have fled to my Refuge and breathed out my woe; How often, when trials like sea billows roll Have I hidden in Thee, O Thou Rock of my soul. [Refrain] Amen. Topics: Last Things Death and Burial; Names and Office of Christ Rock Languages: English Tune Title: O SAFE TO THE ROCK

Fade, Fade, Each Earthly Joy

Author: Jane Catharine (Lundie) Bonar Hymnal: HOoS1926 #601 (1926) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Fade, fade, each earthly joy; Jesus is mine. Break ev'ry tender tie; Jesus is mine. Dark is the wilderness, Earth has no resting place, Jesus alone can bless; Jesus is mine. 2 Tempt not my soul away; Jesus is mine. Here would I ever stay; Jesus is mine. Perishing things of clay, Born but for one brief day, Pass from my heart away; Jesus is mine. 3 Farewell, ye dreams of night; Jesus is mine. Lost in this dawning bright Jesus is mine. All that my soul has tried Left but a dismal void; Jesus has satisfied; Jesus is mine. 3 Farewell, mortality; Jesus is mine. Welcome, eternity; Jesus is mine. Welcome, O loved and blest, Welcome, sweet scenes of rest, Welcome, my Saviour’s breast: Jesus is mine. Amen.

In Hope My Soul, Redeemed to Bliss Unending

Author: Elle Andersdotter Hymnal: HOoS1926 #602 (1926) Meter: 11.11.5.5.11 Lyrics: 1 In hope my soul, redeemed to bliss unending, To heaven's glorious height by faith ascending, Is mindful ever That Christ did sever The bonds of death, that I might live forever. 2 In Him I have salvation's way discovered, The heritage for me He hath recovered. Though death o'ertakes me, Christ ne'er forsakes me, To everlasting life He surely wakes me. 3 More radiant there than sun e'er shone in brightness, My soul shall shine before God's throne in whiteness. My God, who knows me, In glory clothes me, As He declared when for His own He chose me. 4 O may I come where strife and grief are ended, Where all Thy saints shall meet, with peace attended! Grant, Lord, Thy favor And mercy ever, And turn my sorrow into joy forever. 5 Lord Jesus Christ, keep me prepared and waking, Till from the vale of tears Thy bride Thou'rt taking To dwell in heaven, Where joy is given, And clouds of darkness are forever riven.

Author: Hans Adolph Brorson Hymnal: HOoS1926 #603 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 I near the grave, where'er I go, Where'er my pathway tendeth; If rough or pleasant here below, My way at death's gate endeth. I have no other choice; Between my griefs and joys My mortal life is ordered so: I near the grave, where'er I go. 2 I go to heaven, where'er I go, If Jesus' steps I follow; The crown of life He will bestow, When earth this frame shall swallow. If through this tearful vale I in that course prevail, And walk with Jesus here below, I go to heaven, where'er I go. Amen.

We Shall Sleep, But Not Forever

Author: Mary Ann Kidder Hymnal: HOoS1926 #604 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Lyrics: 1 We shall sleep, but not forever, There will be a glorious dawn; We shall meet to part--no, never, On the resurrection morn! From the deepest caves of ocean, From the desert and the plain, From the valley and the mountain, Countless throngs shall rise again. Refrain: We shall sleep, but not forever, There will be a glorious dawn; We shall meet, to part--no, never, On the resurrection morn! 2 When we see a precious blossom That we tended with such care Rudely taken from our bosom, How our aching hearts despair! Round its little grave we linger, Till the setting sun is low, Feeling all our hopes have perished With the flower we cherished so. [Refrain] 3 We shall sleep, but not forever, In the lone and silent grave: Blessèd be the Lord that taketh, Blessèd be the Lord that gave. In the bright, eternal city, Death can never, never come! In His own good time He’ll call us From our rest to home, sweet home. [Refrain] Amen. Topics: Last Things Death and Burial Languages: English Tune Title: WE SHALL SLEEP, BUT NOT FOREVER

The Things of the Earth in the Earth Let Us Lay

Author: John Mason Neale Hymnal: HOoS1926 #606 (1926) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Lyrics: 1 The things of the earth in the earth let us lay; The ashes with ashes, the dust with the clay: But lift up the heart, and the eyes, and the love, O lift up the soul to the regions above! 2 Since He, the Immortal, hath entered the gate, So, too shall we mortals, or sooner or late: Then stand we on Christ; let us mark Him ascend, For His is the glory and life without end. 3 On earth with His own ones, the Giver of good, Bestowing His blessing, a little while stood; Now nothing can part us, nor distance, nor foes, For lo! He is with us, and who can oppose? 4 So, Lord, we commit this our loved one to Thee, Whose body is dead, but whose spirit is free: We know that through grace, when our life here is o'er, In bliss we shall be with the Lord evermore. Amen. Topics: Last Things Death and Burial Languages: English Tune Title: PAULINA
