New every morning is the love

Author: John Keble (1792-1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 362 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:34 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 us, 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.

E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me; still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 2 Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, darkness be over me, my rest a stone; yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 3 There let the way appear steps unto heav’n; all that thou sendest me in mercy giv’n; angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 4 Then, with my waking thoughts bright with thy praise, out of my stony griefs, Bethel I’ll raise; so by my woes to be nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 5 Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky, sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 1 Näher, mein Gott, zu dir, näher zu dir! Drückt mich auch Kummer hier, drohet man mir, soll doch trotz Kreuz und Pein, dies meine Losung sein: Näher, mein Gott, zu dir! Näher zu dir! 2 Bricht mir, wie Jakob dort, Nacht auch herein, find ich zum Ruheort nur einen Stein, ist auch im Traume hier mein Sehnen für und für: … 3 Geht auch die schmale Bahn aufwärts gar steil, führt sie doch himmelan zu unserm Heil. Engel, so licht und schön, winken aus selgen Höhn. … 4 Ist dann die Nacht vorbei, leuchtet die Sonn, weih ich mich dir aufs Neu vor deinem Thron, baue mein Bethel dir und jauchz mit Freuden hier: … 5 Ist mir auch ganz verhüllt dein Weg allhier, wird nur mein Wunsch erfüllt: näher zu dir! Schließt dann mein Pilgerlauf, schwing ich mich freudig auf, … Topics: Comfort; Darkness and Light; Discipleship; Funeral / Memorial Service; Heaven; Protection Used With Tune: BETHANY
