O Christ, Who Called the Twelve
Forever With the Lord
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 631 hymnals First Line: "Forever with the Lord!" Lyrics: 1. "Forever with the Lord!"
Amen, so let it be!
Life from His death is in that word,
'Tis immortality.
My Father's house on high,
Home of my soul, how near
At times to faith's for-seeing eye
The golden streets appear!
2. "Forever with the Lord!"
Forever in His will,
The promise of that faithful word,
Lord, here in me fulfill.
With You at my right hand,
Then I shall never fail;
Uphold me, Lord, and I shall stand,
Thro' grace I will prevail.
3. So when my latest breath
Breaks thro' the veil of pain,
By death I shall escape from death,
And life eternal gain.
That resurrection word,
That shout of victory:
Once more, "Forever with the Lord!"
Amen, so let it be! Scripture: John 17:3 Used With Tune: TERRA PATRIS

This Is My Father's World
Author: Maltbie D. Babcock; Mary Babcock Crawford Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 318 hymnals Lyrics: 1 This is my Father's world,
and to my listening ears
all nature sings and round me rings
the music of the spheres.
This is my Father's world;
I rest me in the thought
of rocks and trees, of skies and seas
his hand the wonders wrought.
3 This is my Father's world:
he shines in all that's fair;
in rustling grass I hear him pass
he speaks to me everywhere.
This is my Father's world:
why should my heart be sad?
The Lord is King, let heaven ring!
God reigns; let earth be glad.

Not What These Hands Have Done
Author: H. Bonar, 1808-89 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 119 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Not what these hands have done
Can save this guilty soul;
Not what this toiling flesh has borne
Can make my spirit whole.
Not what I feel or do
Can give me peace with God;
Not all my prayers and sighs and tears
Can bear my awe-full load.
2 Thy work alone, O Christ,
Can ease this weight of sin;
Thy blood alone, O Lamb of God,
Can give me peace within.
Thy love to me, O God,
Not mine, O Lord to Thee,
Can rid me of this dark unrest
And set my spirit free.
3 Thy grace alone, O God,
To me can pardon speak;
Thy pow'r alone, O Son of God,
Can this sore bondage break.
I bless the Christ of God,
I rest on love divine,
By God's free gift of saving faith
I call this Savior mine.

How Can We Name a Love
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How can we name a Love
that wakens heart and mind,
indwelling all we know
or think or do
or seek or find?
Within our daily world,
in every human face,
Love's echoes sound
and God is found,
hid in the commonplace.
2 If we awoke to life
built on a rock of care
that asked no great reward
but firm, assured,
was simply there,
we can, with parents' names,
describe, and thus adore,
Love unconfined,
a father kind,
a mother strong and sure.
3 When people share a task,
and strength and skills unite
in projects old or new,
to make or do
with shared delight,
our Friend and Partner's will
is better understood,
that all should share,
create, and care,
and know that life is good.
4 So in a hundred names,
each day we all can meet
a presence, sensed and shown
at work, at home,
or in the street.
Yet every name we see,
shines in a brighter sun:
In Christ alone
is Love full grown
and life and hope begun.

A Few More Years Shall Roll
Author: Rev. H. Bonar Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 382 hymnals Lyrics: 1. A few more years shall roll,
A few more seasons come,
And we shall be with those that rest
Within their heav'nly home:
Then, O my Lord, prepare
My soul for that great day;
O wash me in Thy precious blood,
And take my sins away!
2. A few more storms shall beat
On this wild, rocky shore,
And we shall be where tempests cease,
And surges swell no more.
A few more struggles here,
A few more partings o'er,
A few more toils, a few more tears,
And we shall weep no more.
3. 'Tis but a little while
And He shall come again,
Who died that we might live, who lives
That we with Him may reign:
Then, O my Lord, prepare
My soul for that glad day;
O wash me in Thy precious blood,
And take my sins away! Topics: The Future Life Mortality Used With Tune: TERRA BEATA
