New every morning is the love

Author: John Keble (1792-1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 362 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:23 Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love our wakening and uprising prove; through sleep and darkness safely brought, restored to life, and power, and thought. 2 New mercies, each returning day, hover around us while we pray, -- new perils past, new sins forgiven, new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven. 3 If, on our daily course, our mind be set to hallow all we find, new treasures still, of countless price, God will provide for sacrifice. 4 The trivial round, the common task, will furnish all we ought to ask, -- room to deny ourselves, a road to bring us daily nearer God. 5 Prepare, O Lord, in your dear love, for perfect life with you above; and help us, this and every day, to live more nearly as we pray.

Nearer home, nearer home

Author: James Montgomery Appears in 632 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:4 First Line: "Forever with the Lord!" Lyrics: 1 "Forever with the Lord!" Amen, so let it be; Life for the dead is in that word: 'Tis immortality. Here in this body pent, Absent from him I roam; Yet nightly pitch my moving tent A day's march nearer home. Chorus: Nearer home, nearer home, A day's march nearer home. 2 My Father's house on high, Home of my soul, how near At times to faith's aspiring eye, Thy gold gates appear! Ah, then my spirit faints To reach the land I love; The bright inheritance of saints, Jerusalem above. [Chorus] 3 And when the morn shall come That ends earth's night of pain, Thro' grace I shall escape the tomb, And life eternal gain; Then knowing "as I'm known," How shall I love that word, And oft repeat before the throne, "Forever with the Lord!" [Chorus] 4 "Forever with the Lord!" Father, if 'tis thy will, The promise of that faithful word E'en now to me fulfill. Be thou at my right hand, Then I can never fail; Uphold thou me, and I shall stand, And in thy strength prevail. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Reward of Saints Used With Tune: FOREVER WITH THE LORD

Never separated

Author: Richard Massie Appears in 79 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:3 First Line: I know no life divided Lyrics: 1 I know no life divided, O Lord of life, from thee; In thee is life provided For all mankind and me: I know no death, O Jesus, Because I live in thee; Thy death it is that frees us From death eternally. 2 I fear no tribulation, Since whatsoe'er it be, It makes no separation Between my Lord and me. If thou, my God and Teacher, Vouchsafe to be my own, Though poor, I shall be richer Than monarch on his throne. 3 If, while on earth I wander, My heart is right and blest, Ah, what shall I be yonder, In perfect peace and rest? Oh, blessed thought! in dying We go to meet the Lord, Where there shall be no sighing, A kingdom our reward.
