The Pilgrim and the Stranger
Author: J. H. Horstmann; Chr. Barth Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: The pilgrim and stranger Lyrics: 1 The pilgrim and the stranger
Pursues his journey home;
On earth there’s toil and danger,
In heav’n is rest alone.
2 The love that earth has given
Beneath the sod is laid;
He yearns for that in heaven,
For flow’rs that never fade.
3 Of wealth and pride and glory,
Of palaces and gold,
There is the old, sad story
Of death and ruin told.
4 The rivers’ flood is hurried
Into the ocean wide,
And in its bosom buried
Beneath the silent tide.
5 ‘Tis thus the pilgrim yearneth
For God’s own bliss and peace;
In life and joy eternal
His soul may be at ease.
6 And longing thus he wanders
Throughout this vale of tears,
To reach the home that’s yonder
Where Christ, his life, appears. Topics: Pilgrimage; Eternal Life Used With Tune: HOMEWARD BOUND

Let Our Choir New Anthems Raise
Author: John Mason Neale; Joseph of the Studium Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 63 hymnals Lyrics:
Let our Choir new anthems raise:
Wake the morn with gladness:
GOD Himself to joy and praise
Turns the Martyrs’ sadness:
This the day that won their crown,
Opened Heav’n’s bright portal;
As they laid the mortal down,
And put on th’ immortal.

When Christmas Morn Is Dawning
Author: Claude W. Foss Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When Christmas morn is dawning
In faith I would repair
Unto the lowly manger;
My Saviour lieth there,
Unto the lowly manger;
My Saviour lieth there.
2 How kind, O loving Saviour,
To come from heaven above!
From sin and evil save us,
And keep us in thy love,
From sin and evil save us,
And keep us in Thy love.
3 We need Thee, blessèd Jesus,
Our dearest friend Thou art;
Forbid that we by sinning
Should grieve Thy loving heart,
Amen.

There Is No Friend Like Jesus
Author: J. S. Brownlie Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: There is no friend like Jesus, so constant and so kind Lyrics:
There is no friend like Jesus,
So constant and so kind;
He heals the wounded spirit,
And calms the troubled mind.
The hungry soul He feedeth
With manna from His store;
And of His living water
We drink to thirst no more.
When weary is our journey,
And heavy is our load,
This constant Friend is with us,
To cheer our toilsome road.
179
When bright our path and joyous,
And sunshine floods the way,
Our joy He renders tenfold
More joyous every day.
There is no friend like Jesus,
So constant is His love;
The earth has seen His kindness,
'Twill be enjoyed above.
Through death's dark vale He'll lead us--
That vale He passed before;
With life immortal clothe us,
To be unclothed no more.
And in that land the fairest,
With joys that never end,
Our Lord shall stand supremely,
Our true and constant Friend.
There Is No Friend Like Jesus

I whispered sad and slow,
"The strange and awful country
To which I soon must go?"

A voice sang soft and low:
"O pleasant is that country
And sweet it is to go."
3 "Along the shining country
The peaceful rivers flow:
And in that wondrous country
The tree of life does grow."
4 Ah, then into that country
Of which I nothing know,
The everlasting country,
With willing heart I go. Used With Tune: AULÉ

Ni discordante voz.

Mostremos como viven
Los que salvados son.

Lo ordena el Dios y Padre,
Su ley es ley de amor.
Amén.
