Author: Henry Coppée Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: Safe upon the billowy deep, Loving Lord, thy servants keep; Helpless, trusting pilgrims they, Guard them on their watery way. In the morning fill their sails, Mid the dark send favouring gales; If their sky be overcast, Calm the waves, and still the blast. Let thy sunshine guide by day; Send at eve the starry ray; Through the watches of the night, Be thou, Lord, their shining light. Thus, as hour by hour rolls by, Watch them with thy sleepless eye: Guide with thine almighty hand Safe unto the haven-land. 380 And at last, life's voyage o'er, Take us to the heavenly shore, Safe in port, to dwell with thee Where there shall be "no more sea." Amen. Topics: Travelers by Sea and Land; Sunday Schools National Days Used With Tune: LEW TRENCHARD

Hark! A Glad, Exulting Throng

Author: Phipps Onslow Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Hark! a glad exulting throng Lyrics: 1 Hark! a glad exulting throng; Hark! the loud hosannas ring; Glad hosannas loud and long Greet Messiah triumphing. 2 He of whom the prophets won Mystic visions faint and dim, Comes, th’All-Father’s only Son, And redemption comes with Him. 3 Bore the Word sin’s curse and shame, Leaving Heav’n for sin’s domain; Wore the Word our fleshly frame, By His death, death’s king was slain. 4 Once of earthly Mother born Ever of the Father, He; Twain the natures He has worn, One His perfect deity. 5 Lo! the Godhead come to earth, Perfect man, as all might see, That reborn in God’s new birth Might the fallen manhood be. 6 Praise we Him with joyful voice, Our new birth His triumph sealed; In the day let all rejoice Which of old His birth revealed. 7 Him with holiest worship praise In His solemn Advent-tide; Holiest rites for holiest days By the Godhead glorified. 8 So, when earth His terrors shake, He shall come our faith to bless; Saved, for that first Advent’s sake, By His glorious lowliness.

By thee may I strongly live, Bravely bear, and nobly strive. 4. Holy Spirit, right divine, King within my conscience reign; Be my law, and I shall be Firmly bound, forever free. 5. Holy Spirit, peace divine, Still this restless heart of mine; Speak to calm this tossing sea, Stayed in thy tranquillity. 6. Holy Spirit, joy divine, Gladden thou this heart of mine; In the desert ways I sing, "Spring, O Well, forever spring!" Used With Tune: LEW TRENCHARD
