Far from affliction, toil, and care
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #577 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Funeral of a faithful Minister Lyrics: 1 Far from affliction, toil, and care,
The happy soul is fled;
the breathless clay shall slumber here,
Among the silent dead.
2 The gospel was his joy and song,
E'en to his latest breath;
The truth he had proclaim'd so long
Was his support in death.
3 Now he resides where Jesus is,
Above this dusky sphere;
His soul was ripen'd for that bliss,
While yet he sojourn'd here.
4 The Churches' loss we all deplore,
And shed the falling tear;
Since we shall see his face no more,
Till Jesus shall appear.
5 But we are hasting to the tomb;
Oh, may we ready stand;
Then, dearest Lord, receive us home,
To dwell at thy right hand.
Far from affliction, toil, and care
Come, let us to the Lord our God
Author: John Morison, 1750-98 Hymnal: Together in Song #577 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Faithfulness of God Lyrics: 1 Come, let us to the Lord our God
with contrite hearts return;
our God is gracious, nor will leave
the desolate to mourn.
2 His voice commands the tempest forth,
and stills the stormy wave,
and though his arm be strong to smite
'tis also strong to save.
3 Long has the night of sorrow reigned,
the dawn shall bring us light:
God shall appear, and we shall rise
with gladness in his sight.
4 Our hearts, if God we seek to know,
shall know him and rejoice;
his coming like the morn shall be,
like morning songs his voice.
5 As dew upon the tender herb,
diffusing fragrance round;
as showers that usher in the spring,
and cheer the thirsty ground:
6 so shall his presence bless our souls
and shed a joyful light;
that hallowed morn shall chase away
the sorrows of the night. Scripture: Hosea 6:1-4 Languages: English Tune Title: KILMARNOCK
Come, let us to the Lord our God
Abide with me: fast falls the eventide
Author: Henry Francis Lyte (1793-1847) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #580 (2005) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: God Faithfulness of Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide;
the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide:
when other helpers fail, and comforts flee,
help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
change and decay in all around I see:
O thou who changest not, abide with me.
3 I need thy presence every passing hour;
what but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
4 I fear no foe with thee at hand to bless;
ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness:
where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still if thou abide with me.
5 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes,
shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies;
heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee:
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:13 Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE

And your body bends beneath the weight of care,
He will never leave you then, he’ll go with you to the end -
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 34:18 Languages: English Tune Title: LEAVE IT THERE
Leave It There
