Praise the Lord! O heavens, adore him
Through the night of doubt and sorrow
Author: Bernhardt Ingemann, 1789-1862; Sabine Baring-Gould, 1834-1924 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 317 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Through the night of doubt and sorrow
onward goes the pilgrim band,
singing songs of expectation,
marching to the promised land.
2 Clear before us through the darkness
gleams and burns the guiding light;
pilgrim clasps the hand of pilgrim,
stepping fearless through the night.
3 One the light of God's own presence
o'er his ransomed people shed,
chasing far the gloom and terror,
brightening all the path we tread:
4 One the object of our journey,
one the faith which never tires,
one the earnest looking forward,
one the hope our God inspires:
5 One the strain that lips of thousands
lift as from the heart of one;
one the conflict, one the peril,
one the march in God begun:
6 One the gladness of rejoicing
on the far eternal shore,
where the one almighty Father
reigns in love for evermore.
*7 Onward, therefore, pilgrim brothers,
onward with the cross our aid;
bear its shame, and fight its battle,
till we rest beneath its shade.
*8 Soon shall come the great awaking,
soon the rending of the tomb;
then the scattering of all shadows,
and the end of toil and gloom.

Through the night of doubt and sorrow
When Will People Cease Their Fighting?
Author: Constance Cherry Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When will people cease their fighting?
When will armies wage no war,
Nations conquer not their neighbor,
Weapons idle, used no more?
When will guns and bombs be silent?
When will captives be set free?
All creation groans in longing
For the world's true liberty.
2 Floods and earthquakes, drought and famine
Plague the world with awesome ill,
But far greater is war's horror
Caused by human, stubborn will.
Blest are those who, working, praying,
Purpose in their hearts to be
Instruments of peace, committed
To the nations' harmony.
3 As we strive for peace with vigor,
Hoping to be shown the way,
We are strengthened in the knowledge
Of a future, perfect day;
For we know that deeper, richer
Peace is ours when Christ shall reign:
Then will all our swords be plowshares
And God's children free from pain. Used With Tune: RUSTINGTON

Mighty God, While Angels Bless Thee
Author: Robert Robinson; R. W. Dale Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 286 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Mighty God, while angels bless thee,
may a mortal sing thy name?
Lord of earth as well as angels,
thou art ev'ry creature’s theme;
Lord of ev'ry land and nation,
Ancient of Eternal Days,
sounded through the wide creation
be thy just and endless praise.
2 For the grandeur of your nature,
grand beyond a seraph’s thought;
for the wonders of creation,
works with skill and kindness wrought;
for thy providence that gtoverns
through thine empire's wide domain,
wings an angel, guides a sparrow:
blessed by thy gentle reign.
4 But thy rich, thy free redemption,
dark through brightness all along;
thought is poor, and poor expression:
who dare sing that wondrous song?
Brightness of the Father’s glory,
shall thy praise unuttered lie?
Break, my tongue, such guilty silence;
sing the Lord who came to die.
4 From the highest throne of glory
to the cross of deepest woe,
all to ransom guilty captives!
Flow my praise, forever flow
Go, return, immortal Savior;
leave thy footstool, claim thy throne;
thence return, and reign forever;
be the kingdom all thine own!

Out of Deep, Unordered Water
Author: Fred Kaan Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Out of deep, unordered water
God created light and land,
World of bird and beast and,later,
In God's image, woman, man.
There is water in the river
Bringing life to tree and plant.
Let creation praise its giver:
There is water in the font.
2 Water on the human forehead,
Birthmark of the love of God
Is the sign of death and rising;
Through the seas there runs a road.
There is water in the river
Bringing life to tree and plant.
Let creation praise its giver:
There is water in the font.
3 Standing round the font reminds us
Of the Hebrews' climb ashore.
Life is hallowed by the knowledge:
God has been this way before.
There is water in the river
Bringing life to tree and plant.
Let creation praise its giver:
There is water in the font.
