How blest the righteous when he dies

Appears in 470 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How blest the righteous when he dies, When sinks a weary soul to rest! How mildly beam the closing eyes! How gently heaves th' expiring breast! 2 So fades a summer cloud away, So sinks the gale when storms are o'er, So gently shuts the eye of day, So dies a wave along the shore. 3 A holy quiet reigns around, A calm which life nor death destroys; Nothing disturbs that peace profound Which his unfetter'd soul enjoys. 4 Farewell, conflicting hopes and fears, Where lights and shades alternate dwell! How bright the unchanging morn appears! Farewell, inconstant world! farewell! 5 Life’s labor done, as sinks the clay, Light from its load the spirit flies; While heaven and earth combine to say, "How blest the righteous when he dies!"

This Child We Dedicate to Thee

Author: Samuel Gilman Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 95 hymnals Lyrics: 1 This child we dedicate to Thee, O God of grace and purity! Shield it from sin and threatening wrong, And let Thy love its life prolong. 2 O may Thy Spirit gently draw Its willing soul to keep Thy law; May virtue, piety, and truth, Dawn even with its dawning youth. 3 We, too, before Thy gracious sight, Once shared the blest baptismal rite, And would renew its solemn vow With love, and thanks, and praises now. 4 Grant that, with true and faithful heart, We still may act the Christian’s part, Follow the path the Master trod, And ever do Thy will, O God. Amen. Scripture: Matthew 19:13-15 Used With Tune: ZEPHYR Text Sources: From the German
