To a Friend, on the Death of a Child

Hymnal: Poems on Subjects Chiefly Devotional, Vol. 2 #26 (1760) First Line: Life is a span, a fleeting hour Lyrics: I. Life is a span, a fleeting hour, How soon the vapour flies! Man is a tender transient flow'r, That ev'n in blooming dies! II. Death spreads like winter's frozen arms, And beauty smiles no more: Ah! where are now those rising charms Which pleas'd our eyes before? III. The once lov'd form now cold and dead, Each mournful thought employs; And nature weeps her comforts fled, And wither'd all her joys. IV. But wait the interposing gloom, And lo, stern winter flies! And drest in beauty's fairest bloom, The flow'ry tribes arise. V. Hope looks beyond the bounds of time; When what we now deplore, Shall rise in full immortal prime, And bloom to fade no more. VI. Then cease fond nature, cease thy tears, Religion points on high: There everlasting spring appears, And joys that cannot die. Languages: English

You are on earth most blest, You are most blest, most blessèd, God chose you, you are blest!” 3 But Mary was most troubled To hear the angel’s word. What was the angel saying? It troubled her to hear, To hear the angel’s message, It troubled her to hear. 4 “Fear not, for God is with you, And you shall bear a child. His name shall be called Jesus, God’s offspring from on high. And He shall reign forever, Forever reign on high.” 5 “How shall this be?” said Mary, “I am not yet a wife.” The angel answered quickly, “The power of the Most High Will come upon you shortly; Your child will be God’s child.” 6 As Mary heard the angel, She wondered at his words. “Behold, I am your handmaid,” She said unto her God. “So be it; I am ready According to your Word.” Topics: Annunciation Scripture: Luke 1:26-28 Languages: English Tune Title: ANNUNCIATION
