O Where Is He That Trod the Sea?
Author: T. T. Lynch Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 59 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O where is he that trod the sea?
O where is he that spake
and demons from their victims flee,
the dead their slumbers break,
the palsied rise in freedom strong,
the speechless talk and sing,
and from blind eyes benighted long
bright beams of morning spring?
2 O where is he that trod the sea?
O where is he that spake
and piercing words of liberty
the deaf ears open shake,
and mildest words artrest the haste
of fever's deadly fire,
and strong ones heal the weak who waste
their lives in sad desire?
3 O where is he that trod the sea?
'Tis only he can save;
to thousands hung'ring wearily
a wondrous meal he gave;
full soon with bread from heaven fed,
their rustic fare they take;
'twas springtide when he bless'd the bread,
and harvest when he brake.
4 O where is he that trod the sea?
My soul, the Lord is here!
Let all thy fears be hushed in thee;
be thine to look, to hear;
he all thy needs will satisfy.
Art thou diseased or dumb,
or dost thou in thy hunger cry?

The Song of Zechariah (Benedictus Dominus Deus): Canticle 16 (metrical paraphrase)
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. (b. 1944) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 19 hymnals First Line: Blessed be the God of Israel Lyrics: 1 Blessed be the God of Israel
who comes to set us free
and raises up new hope for us:
a Branch from David’s tree.
So have the prophets long declared
that with his mighty arm
God would turn back our enemies
and all that wish us harm.
2 With promised mercy will God still
the covenant recall,
the oath once sworn to Abraham;
from foes to save us all;
that we might worship without fear
and offer lives of praise,
in holiness and righteousness
to serve God all our days.
3 My child, as prophet of the Lord
you will prepare the way,
to tell God’s people they are saved
from sin’s eternal sway.
Then shall God’s mercy from on high
shine forth and never cease,
to drive away the gloom of death
and lead us into peace. Topics: Service Music Canticles Scripture: Luke 1:68-79 Used With Tune: SHEPHERD'S PIPES
The Song of Zechariah (Benedictus Dominus Deus): Canticle 16 (metrical paraphrase)
Deep in the Shadows of the Past
Author: Brian Wren, 1936- Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 10 hymnals 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. Topics: Call/Calling; Change; Continuing Revelation; God Mystery of; God's Faithfulness; Hope; Scripture Scripture: 1 Timothy 4:13 Used With Tune: SHEPHERDS' PIPES
