Sometimes a light surprises

Author: William Cowper, 1731 - 1800 Appears in 409 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises The Christian while he sings; It is the Lord who rises With healing in his wings; When comforts are declining, He grants the soul again A season of clear shining, To cheer it after rain. 2 In holy contemplation We sweetly then pursue The theme of God’s salvation, And find it ever new; Set free from present sorrow, We cheerfully can say, Let the unknown tomorrow Bring with it what it may. 3 It can bring with it nothing But he will bear us through; Who gives the lilies clothing Will clothe his people, too: Beneath the spreading heavens No creature but is fed, And he who feeds the ravens Will give his children bread. 4 Though vine nor fig tree neither Their wonted fruit should bear, Though all the fields should wither, Nor flocks nor herds be there; Yet God, the same abiding, His praise shall tune my voice; For, while in him confiding I cannot but rejoice.

O Day of Rest and Gladness

Author: Christopher Wordsworth Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 821 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness, O day of joy and light, O balm of care and sadness, most beautiful, most bright! On thee the high and lowly before th'eternal throne sing "Holy, holy, holy" to the great Thee-in-One. 2 On thee at the creation, the light first had its birth, on thee for our salvation Christ rose from depths of earth; on thee our Lord victorious, the Spirit sent from heav'n, and thus on thee most glorious, a triple light was giv'n. 3 New graces ever gaining from this our day of rest, we reach the rest remaining to spirits of the blest. To Holy Ghost be praises, to Father and to Son; the church her voice upraises to thee, blest Three-in-One. Scripture: Genesis 1:3 Used With Tune: CRÜGER
