Why Will Ye Die?
Author: Rev. Edward Husband Hymnal: NH1904 #49 (1904) First Line: A great Rock stands in a weary land Refrain First Line: Then why will ye die Lyrics: 1 A great Rock stands in a weary land,
And its shadows fall on the parchéd sand,
And it calls to the trav’ler passing by:
“I will shelter thee here continually.”
Then why will ye die?
Oh! why will ye die?
When the shelt’ring Rock is standing by,
Oh! why! oh! will ye die?
2 A great well lies in a weary land,
And its waters call over life’s rough strand,
That the great Well is deep, with waters rife,
Springing up into everlasting life.
Then why will ye die?
Oh! why will ye die?
When the great deep Well is standing by,
Oh! why! oh! will ye die?
3 A wide Fold stands in a weary land,
And the sheep are call’d on every hand;
And the Shepherd no wand’rer turns away,
But He changes his darkness into day.
Then why will ye die?
Oh! why will ye die?
When the great wide Fold is standing by,
Oh! why! oh! will ye die?
4 A rough Cross stands near a city wall,
Where the Saviour died out of love for all;
Where angels still tell the message blest,
That the way now is plain to endless rest.
Then why will ye die?
Oh! why will ye die?
When the blood-stain’d Cross is standing by,
Oh! why! oh! will ye die? Topics: Refuge, Rock Tune Title: [A great Rock stands in a weary land]
Why Will Ye Die?
A Homeless Stranger
Author: Anon. Hymnal: NH1904 #107 (1904) First Line: A homeless Stranger amongst us came Lyrics: 1 A homeless Stranger amongst us came.
To this land of death and mourning;
He walked in a path of sorrow and shame,
Thro’ insult, and hate, and scorning;
A Man of sorrows, of toil, of tears,
An outcast Man and a lonely,
But He looked on me, and thro’ endless years
Him must I love, Him only.
2 And them from this sad and sorrowful land,
This land of tears He departed;
But the light of His eyes and the touch of His hand
Had left me broken-hearted;
And I clave to Him as He turn’d His face
From the land that was mine no longer,
The land I’d loved in the ancient days, ere
I knew the love that was stronger.
3 And I must abide where He abode,
And follow His steps forever;
His people, my people; His God, my God,
In the land beyond the river;
And where He died would I also die;
Far dearer a grave beside Him
Than a kingly place among living men,
The place that they denied Him. Topics: Christ Life of Tune Title: [A homeless stranger amongst us came]

Be Still, my Heart
Author: Maj. D. W. Whittle Hymnal: NH1904 #136 (1904) First Line: Be still, my heart, thy Saviour knows full well Lyrics: 1 Be still, my heart, thy Saviour knows full well
The burden on thee laid;
And to thy side He comes, with love to heal
The wound His love hath made.
Close by the sheep, in paths of darkness led,
He walks, the Shepherd true;
“I will not leave you comfortless,” He said,
“I will come unto you.”
2 No love but His can fill the vacant place,
And soothe the bitter pain;
No pow’r but His can send the needed grace,
To count thy sorrows gain;
N o hand but His can wipe the falling tear,
For He on earth hath wept;
No voice but His can at the grave give cheer,
For there He once hath slept.
3 And still He weeps with all His own who weep,
Our great High Priest above;
And thro’ their night of woe He still doth keep
His silent watch of love.
He feels each sigh, each throb of aching head,
And whispers soft and low,
“I will not leave you comfortless and sad,”
“I will come unto you.”
4 O welcome grief, if Christ be grieving too,
And by my grief brought near;
And welcome pain, if He doth send the blow
To make Himself more dear.
He’ll give me strength His path on earth to tread,
And all my work to do;
“I will not leave you comfortless,” He said,
“I will come unto you.” Topics: Peacae and Rest Tune Title: [Be still, my heart, thy Saviour knows full well]

Beyond Our Sight

Above the clouds, the fogs and mists of earth;
And none but souls that Jesus purifieth
Can see its walls, or hear its holy mirth.
Refrain:
Beyond our sight, beyond our night,
Beyond this world’s sad story;
That city bright, it stands in light,
The home of all the holy.
2 Secure and strong, this heav’nly city builded
By Christ the Lamb for all the blood-wash’d throng,
Gleams fair and bright, with golden glory gilded,
For ever thrilling with triumphant song. [Refrain]
3 There, on the throne, the Lamb, once slain is seated,
The Shepherd’s joy upon His holy face;
While countless hosts, their warfare all completed,
In circling bands, lift ceaseless songs of praise. [Refrain]
4 O sor’wing souls, beneath earth’s burdens bending,
Lift up your eyes to yonder city fair;
And thro’ your tears let praise be still ascending
For rest, and home, and loved ones waiting there. [Refrain] Topics: Heaven and Homeland Tune Title: [Beyond our sight a city four square lieth]

Beyond the Stars
Author: T. H. Hymnal: NH1904 #23 (1904) First Line: Beyond the silent stars of night Lyrics: 1 Beyond the silent stars of night,
There shines a land so fair;
More glorious than the orbs of light,
I’d fain be resting there.
Refrain:
Beyond the silent stars of night,
Into the far away
There is a home of joy and light,
A land of perfect day.
2 Beyond the deep etherial dome,
Our waiting hearts expect
To dwell in that eternal home,
The home of God’s elect. [Refrain]
3 And though on earth we meet no more,
While years of time shall roll;
We’ll meet upon a happier shore,
The homeland of the soul. [Refrain]
4 Then wait we for our blessed King,
He will not tarry long;
Soon, soon our happy hearts shall sing,
The glad triumphant song. [Refrain] Topics: Heaven and Homeland Tune Title: [Beyond the silent stars of night]
