The hill of Zion yields A thousand sacred sweets, Before we reach the heav'nly fields, Before we reach the heav'nly fields, Or walk the golden streets, Or walk the golden streets. [Chorus] 4. Then let our song abound, And ev'ry tear be dry; We're marching thro' Immanuel's ground, We're marching thro' Immanuel's ground, To fairer worlds on high, To fairer worlds on high.

Blest are the moments, doubly blest

Author: W. Wordsworth Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 Blest are the moments, doubly blest, That drawn from this one hour of rest, Are with a ready heart bestowed Upon the service of our God! 2 Each field is then a hallowed spot, An altar is in each man's cot, A church in every grove that spreads Its living roof above our heads. 3 Look up to heaven, the industrious sun Already half his race hath run He cannot halt or go astray, But our immortal spirits may. 4 Lord, since his rising in the east, If we have faltered or transgressed, Guide, from Thy love's abundant source, What yet remains of this day's course; 5 Help with Thy grace, thro' life's short day, Our upward and our downward way; And glorify for us the west, When we shall sink to final rest.

O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home: 2. Under the shadow of Thy throne, Thy saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient in Thine arm alone, And our defence is sure. 3. Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received her frame, From everlasting Thou art God, To endless years the same. 4. A thousand ages in Thy sight Are like an evening gone, Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. 5. The busy tribes of flesh and blood, With all their cares and fears, Are carried downward by the flood, And lost in following years. 6. Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Bears all its sons away; They fly forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. 7. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guide while life shall last, And our eternal home. Used With Tune: ST. ANN

Dios bendiga las almas unidas

Author: Daniel Hall Meter: 10.10.10.9 D Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Christian Home Lyrics: 1 Dios bendiga las almas unidas por los lazos de amor sacrosanto, Y las guarde de todo quebranto en un mundo de espinas y error. Que el hogar que a formarse comienza con la unión de estos dos corazones, Goce siempre de mil bendiciones al amparo del Dios de Israel. 2 Que el Señor, con su dulce presencia, cariñoso estas bodas presida, Y conduzca por sendas de vida a los que hoy se prometen lealtad. Les recuerde que nada en el mundo es eterno, que todo termina, Y por tanto, con gracia divina, cifrar deben la dicha en su Dios. 3 Que los dos que aquí se aproximan a jurarse su fe mutuamente, Busquen siempre en Cristo la fuente de amor y de dicha inmortal. Y si acaso de duelo y tristeza se empañasen su senda un día, En Jesús hallarán dulce guía que consuelo y paz les dará. Scripture: Genesis 2:18-24 Used With Tune: PUEBLA

Take my silver and my gold, Not a mite would I withhold; Take my intellect, and use Every power as Thou shalt choose. 5 Take my will, and make it Thine; It shall be no longer mine; Take my heart, it is Thine own; It shall be Thy royal throne.
