Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death.
2 Our fathers, chained in prisons dark,
Were still in heart and conscience free:
And truly blest would be our fate,
If we, like them, should die for thee.

We will be true to thee till death.

Shall win all nations unto thee;
And through the truth that comes from God,
We shall all then indeed be free.
Faith of our mothers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death.

Both friend and foe in all our strife:
And preach thee, too, as love knows how,
By kindly deeds and virtuous life.

Rise, My Soul, and Stretch Thy Wings
Author: Robert Seagrave Hymnal: The Hymnbook #330 (1955) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Scripture: Hebrews 11:13 Lyrics: 1 Rise, my soul, and stretch thy wings,
Thy better portion trace;
Rise from transitory things
Toward heaven, thy destined place.
Sun and moon and stars decay,
Time shall soon this earth remove;
Rise, my soul, and haste away
To seats prepared above.
2 Rivers to the ocean run,
Nor stay in all their course;
Fire ascending seeks the sun;
Both speed them to their source:
So my soul, derived from God,
Longs to view His glorious face,
Forward tends to His abode,
To rest in His embrace.
3 Cease, my soul, then, cease to mourn,
Press onward to the prize;
Soon the Saviour will return
Triumphant in the skies:
Yet a season, and we know
Happy entrance will be given,
All our sorrows left below,
And earth exchanged for heaven.
Amen. Topics: Aspiration; Hope; Perseverance; Life in Christ Hope and Aspiration Tune Title: AMSTERDAM
