How beautiful the sight
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #283 (1961) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Christian Friendship Lyrics: 1 How beautiful the sight
Of brethren who agree
In friendship to unite,
And bonds of charity;
'Tis like the precious ointment, shed
O'er all his robes, from Aaron's head.

The cups of Hermon's flow'rs;
Or Zion's fruitful hill,
Bright with the drops of show'rs.
When mingling odors breathe around,
And glory rests on all the ground.
3 For there the Lord commands
Blessings, a boundless store,
From his unsparing hands,
Yea, life for evermore;
Thrice happy they who meet above
To spend eternity in love!
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 133 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GODRIC

How Beautiful the Sight
Lo, what a pleasing sight
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #438 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Friendship Lyrics: 1 Lo, what a pleasing sight
Are brethren that agree!
How blest are all whose hearts unite
In bonds of piety.
2 From those celestial springs,
Such streams of comfort flow,
As no increase of riches brings,
Nor honors can bestow.
3 All in their stations move,
And each performs his part,
In all the cares of life and love,
With sympathizing heart.
4 Form'd for the purest joys,
By one desire possest,
One aim the zeal of all employs,
To make each other blest.
5 No bliss can equal theirs,
Where such affections meet;
While praise devout, and mingled prayers
Make their communion sweet.
6 'Tis the same pleasure fills
The breast in worlds above,
Where joy, like morning-dew, distils,
And all the air is love. Languages: English

In love and pity infinite,
Teach us, as ever in thy sight,
To live our life to thee.
2 And thou who cam'st on earth to die,
That fallen man might live thereby,
O hear us, for to thee we cry
In hope, O Lord, to thee.
3 Teach us the lesson thou hast taught,
To feel for those thy blood hath bought;
That ev'ry word and deed and thought
May work a work for thee.
4 For they are brethren, far and wide,
Since thou, O Lord, for them hast died;
Then teach us, whatsoe'er betide,
To love them all in thee.
5 In sickness, sorrow, want, or care,
Whate'er it be, 'tis ours to share;
May we, when help is needed, there
Give help as unto thee.

Let saints below in concert sing

With those to glory gone:
For all the servants of our King,
In earth, and heaven, are one.
2 One family--we dwell in Him--
One church above, beneath,
Though now divided by the stream--
The narrow stream of death;
3 One army of the living God,
To His command we bow;
Part of his host have cross'd the flood,
And part are crossing now.
4 E'en now to their eternal home
Some happy spirits fly;
And we are to the margin come,
And soon expect to die.
5 E'en now, by faith, we join our hands
With those that went before,
And greet the ransom'd blessed bands
Upon th'eternal shore.
6 Lord Jesus! be our constant guide;
And when the word is given,
Bid death's cold flood its waves divide,
And land us safe in heaven. Languages: English

And strove in Thee to die.

With Thee, their Lord, in view,
Learn'd from Thy Holy Spirit's breath
To suffer and to do.

And humbly pray that we
May follow them in holiness
And live and die in Thee. Languages: English

All our souls in safety keep.

Sweeten ev'ry cross and pain:
Give us, if we live, ere long
In Thy peace to meet again.

Ebenezers shall be rear'd;
And our souls shall praise the Lord
Who our poor petitions heard. Languages: English

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #245 (1898) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Topics: Friendship; Holiness; Christian Joy; The Christian Life; Prayer General Petition; Sickness, Death, and Burial; Christian Work Lyrics: 1 O God, Thou faithful God,
Thou Fountain ever-flowing,
Without whom nothing is,
All perfect gifts bestowing;
A pure and healthy frame
O give me, and within
A conscience free from blame,
A soul unhurt by sin.
2 And grant me, Lord, to do,
With ready heart and willing,
Whate'er Thou shalt command,
My calling here fulfilling,
To do it when I ought,
With all my strength, and bless
The work I thus have wrought,
For Thou must give success.
3 And let me promise naught
But I can keep it truly,
Abstain from idle words,
And guard my lips e'er duly;
And grant, when in my place
I must and ought to speak,
My words due power and grace,
Nor let me wound the weak.
4 If dangers gather round,
Still keep me calm and fearless;
Help me to bear the cross,
When life is dark and cheerless;
To overcome my foe
With words and actions kind;
When counsel I would know,
Good counsel let me find.
5 And let me be with all
In peace and friendship living,
As far as Christians may;
And if Thou aught art giving
Of wealth and honors fair,
O this refuse me not,
That naught be mingled there
Of goods unjustly got.
6 And if a longer life
Be here on earth decreed me,
And Thou through many a strife
To ripe old age wilt lead me,
Thy patience in me shed,
Avert all sin and shame,
And crown my hoary head
With pure, untarnished fame.
7 Let nothing here on earth
Me from my Saviour sever;
And when I die, O take
My soul to Thee forever;
And let my body have
A little space to sleep
Beside my kindred's grave,
And o'er it vigil keep.
8 And when the Day is come,
And all the dead are waking,
O reach me down Thy hand,
Thyself my slumbers breaking;
Then let me hear Thy voice,
And change this earthly frame,
And bid me aye rejoice
With those who love Thy name.

as in our daily life
we struggle to be human
and search for hope and faith.
Teach us to care for people,
for all, not just for some,
to love them as we find them
or as they may become.

so that we may be moved
in living situations
to do the truth in love,
to practice your acceptance
until we know by heart
the table of forgiveness
and laughter's healing art.

with all who are in need,
who hunger for acceptance,
for righteousness and bread,

new hands for holding on;
renew us with your Spirit;

We pour our ardent prayers;
Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,
Our comfort and our cares.
3 We share each other's woes,
Each other's burdens bear;
And often for each other flows
The sympathizing tear.
4 When for a while we part,
This thought will soothe our pain;
That we shall still be joined in heart,
And one day meet again.
5 One glorious hope revives
Our courage by the way;
While each in expectation lives,
And longs to see the day,
6 When from all toil and pain,
And sin we shall be free,
And perfect love and friendship reign
Through all eternity.

What a privilege to carry

O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful,
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
3 Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Christ the Saviour is our refuge;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do our friends despise, forsake us?
Are we tempted to despair?
Jesus' strength will shield our weakness,
and we'll find new courage there. Languages: English Tune Title: FRIENDSHIP
