Make Channels for the Streams of Love

Author: Richard Chenevix Trency,1807-1886 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 67 hymnals Topics: Humanist Teachings The Life of Integrity Lyrics: 1 Make channels for the streams of love where they may broadly run; and love has overflowing streams to fill them every one. 2 But if at any time we cease such channels to provide, the very founts of love for us will soon be parched and dried. 3 For we must share, if we would keep this gift all else above; we cease to give, we cease to have — such is the law of love.

Lyttle, 1884-1980 Meter: 12.13.12.10 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Humanist Teachings The Life of Integrity First Line: Bring, O Past, your honor; bring, O Time, your harvest Lyrics: 1 Bring, O Past, your honor; bring, O Time, your harvest, golden sheaves of hallowed lives and minds by Truth made free; come, you faithful spirits, builders of this temple: “To Holiness, to Love, and Liberty.” 2 Ring, in glad thanksgiving, bell of grief and gladness, forth to town and prairie let our festal greeting go. Voices long departed in your tones re-echo: “Praise to the Highest, Peace to all below.” 3 Shrine of frontier courage, Sinai of its vision, home and hearth of common quest for life’s immortal good, stand, in years oncoming, sentinel of conscience, as through the past your stalwart walls have stood. 4 Church of pure reformers, pioneers undaunted, company of comrades sworn to keep the spirit free; long o’er life’s swift river preach th’eternal gospel: faith, hope, and love for all humanity.

All My Memories of Love

Author: Anna Akhmatova, c. 1888-1966; Mark L. Belletini, 1949- Meter: 7.5.7.5 D Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Humanist Teachings Insight and Wisdom Lyrics: 1 All my memories of love hang upon high stars. All the souls I’ve lost to tears now the autumn jars; and the air around me here thickens with their song; sing again their nameless tunes, sing again, and strong. 2 Willows in September touch the water clear, set among the rushes tall of the flowing year. Rising up from sunlit past comes the shadowed sigh running toward me silently, love to fortify. 3 Many are the graceful hearts hung upon this tree. And it seems there’s room for mine on these branches free; and the sky above the tree, whether wet or bright, is my ease and comforting, my good news and light. Used With Tune: ADORO TE DEVOTE
