Deep in the Shadows of the Past

Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: Glory to God #50 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Deep in the shadows of the past, far out from settled lands, some nomads traveled with their God across the desert sands. The dawning hope of humankind by them was sensed and shown: a promise calling them ahead, a future yet unknown. 2 While others bowed to changeless gods, they met a mystery, invisible, without a name: "I AM WHAT I WILL BE"; and by their tents, around their fires in story, song, and law, they praised, remembered, handed on a past that promised more. 3 From Exodus to Pentecost the promise changed and grew, while some, remembering the past, recorded what they knew, or with their letters and laments, their prophecy and praise, recovered, kindled, and expressed new hope for changing days. 4 For all the writings that survived, for leaders, long ago, who sifted, copied, and preserved the Bible that we know, give thanks, and find its story yet our promise, strength, and call, the model of emerging faith, alive with hope for all.

The Saints, at Times, Do Look Within

Author: Anne Dutton Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #221 (2024) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. The saints, at times, do look within, And are beset with dread By reason of indwelling sin, Throughout their nature spread. For as the great apostle said, And ev'ry saint does find, A law, we in ourselves can't keep, That wars against the mind. 2. No, warring only is not all; Sin oft times wins the field, And by its force so powerful, The captive soul does yield. But in all saints is a new mind, Which ev'ry evil hates; In what the old does pleasure find, The new abominates. 3. In Adam's image we were born; 'Tis through our Nature spread, By virtue of our unity To him, our earthly head. But this shall be destroyed; alas: Christ's Image we will bear; Our heav'nly head, his glory bright We perfectly shall wear. 4. When we shall see Christ as he is, We shall be like him made, In soul and body like to his, Who is our glorious head. The nearness of our union there To Christ this does secure; And all the bliss laid up for us, Which ever shall endure.
