Comfort in Affliction

Hymnal: WV1884 #71 (1884) First Line: We may sleep, but not forever Refrain First Line: We may sleep, but not forever Lyrics: 1 We may sleep, but not forever, There will be a glorious dawn; We shall meet to part, no, never, On the resurrection morn. From the desert and the plain, From the valley and the mountain, Countless throngs shall rise again. Chorus: We may 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. 2 When we see a precious blossom, That we tended with such care, Rudely taken from our bosom, How our aching hearts despair. Round the silent grave we linger Till the setting sun is low, Feeling all our hopes have perished With the flower we cherished so. [Chorus] 3 We may sleep, but not forever, In the lone and silent grave; Blessed be the Lord that taketh, Blessed 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. [Chorus]

Chorus: Still we sing, Christ our King Walks with us the weary way, And the shining angels wait, Angels wait, angels wait, To unbar the golden gate Of the Kingdom. [Chorus] 3 We shall gather home at last, Sorrow past, sorrow past, We shall hold our jewels fast In the Kingdom; We shall dwell in perfect light, Holy light, holy light, Never dimmed by tears at night, In the Kingdom. [Chorus]

Stand Up for Jesus

Cast thy bread upon the waters

Hymnal: WV1884 #75 (1884) Lyrics: 1 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Ye who have but scant supply, Angel eyes will watch around it; You shall find it by and by; He who in his righteous balance Doth each human action weight Will your sacrifice remember, Will your loving deed repay. 2 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Poor and weary, worn with care,-- Often sitting in the shadow,-- Have you not a crumb to spare? Can you not to those around you Sing some little song of hope, As you look with longing vision Through faith's mighty telescope? 3 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Ye who have abundant store; It may float on many a billow, It may strand on many a shore; You may think it lost forever, But, as sure as God is true, In this life or in the other, It will yet return to you.

[Chorus] 3 All the loving links that bind us, While the days are going by, One by one we leave behind us, While the days are going by. But the seeds of good we sow Both in shade and shine will grow, And will keep our hearts aglow, While the days are going by. [Chorus]
