Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain; Leave to thy God to order and provide, In ev'ry change He faithful will remain. Be still, my soul; thy best, thy heavenly Friend Thro' thorny ways leads to a joyful end. 2 Be still, my soul; thy God doth undertake To guide the future as He has the past. Thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake; All now mysterious shall be bright at last. Be still, my soul; the waves and winds still know His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below. 3 Be still, my soul; The hour is hastening on When we shall be forever with the Lord; When disappointment, grief, and fear are gone; Sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored. Be still, my soul; when change and tears are past, All safe and blessed, we shall meet at last. Topics: Christians Assurance Languages: English Tune Title: FINLANDIA

Author: John Henry Newman (1801-1890) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #372 (1998) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Isaiah 12:2-6 Lyrics: 1 Praise to the Holiest in the height, and in the depth be praise; in all his words most wonderful, most sure in all his ways. 2 O loving wisdom of our God! When all was sin and shame, a second Adam to the fight and to the rescue came. 3 O generous love! that flesh and blood, which did in Adam fail, should strive afresh against the foe, should strive and should prevail: 4 and that the highest gift of grace should flesh and blood refine; God's presence and his very self, and essence all-divine; 5 who in the garden secretly, and on the cross on high, should teach his followers, and inspire to suffer and to die. 6 Praise to the Holiest in the height, and in the depth be praise; in all his words most wonderful, most sure in all his ways.

Author: Henry W. Longfellow, 1807-1882 Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #415 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Isaiah 12:2 Lyrics: 1 I heard the bells on Christmas Day their old familiar carols play, and wild and sweet the words repeat of peace of earth, goodwill to men. 2 I thought how, as the day had come, the belfries of all Christendom had rolled along the unbroken song of peace on earth, goodwill to men. 3 And in despair I bowed my head: "There is no peace on earth," I said, "for hate is strong and mocks the song of peace on earth, goodwill to men." 4 Then pealed the bells more loud and deep: "God is not dead, nor doth he sleep; the wrong shall fail, the right prevail, with peace on earth, goodwill to men." 5 Till, ringing, singing on its way, the world revolved from night to day, a voice, a chime, a chant sublime, of peace on earth, goodwill to men!

When the shelt'ring Rock is so near by? Oh! why will ye die? 2. There is a Well in a desert plain, Its waters call with entreating strain, "Ho, ev'ry thirsting sin-sick soul, Come freely drink, and thou shalt be whole. Refrain: Then why will ye die? Oh! why will ye die? When the living Well is so near by? Oh! why will ye die? 3. A great fold stands with its portals wide, While stray the sheep on the mountain side, The Shepherd climbs o'er mountains steep, He's searching now for His wand'ring sheep. Refrain: Then why will ye die? Oh! why will ye die? When the Shepherd's fold is so near by? Oh! why will ye die? 4. There is a cross where the Saviour died, His blood flow'd out in a crimson tide A sacrifice for sins of men, And free to all who will enter in. Refrain: Then why will ye die? Oh! why will ye die? When the crimson cross is so near by? Oh! why will ye die? Tune Title: [There is a Rock in a weary land]

Affliction is a stormy deep

Author: Cotton Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #624 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Isaiah 12:2 Lyrics: 1 Affliction is a stormy deep, Where wave resounds to wave; Though o'er our heads the billows roll, We know the Lord can save. 2 When darkness, and when sorrows rose, And pressed on every side, The Lord hath still sustained our steps, And still hath been our Guide. 3 Perhaps, before the morning dawn, He will restore our peace; For he who bade the tempest roar, Can bid the tempest cease. 4 Here will we rest, here build our hopes, Nor murmur at his rod; He's more to us than all the world, Our Health, our Life, our God.
