Blest Creator of the light

Author: Unknown Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 16 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 Blest Creator of the light, making day with radiance bright, thou didst o’er the forming earth give the golden light its birth. 2 Thou didst mark the night from day with the dawn's first piercing ray: darkness now is drying nigh; listen to our humble cry. 3 May we ne’er by guilt depressed lose the way to endless rest; nor with idle thoughts and vain bind our souls to earth again. 4 Rather may we heav'nward rise where eternal treasure lies; purified by grace within, hating ev'ry deed of sin. 5 Holy Father, hear our cry through thy Son our Lord most high, who our thankful hearts adore with the Spirit evermore.

They whose course on earth is o'er

Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 20 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 THEY whose course on earth is o’er, Think they of their brethren more? They before the throne who bow, Feel they for their brethren now? 2 We by enemies distrest, They in paradise at rest; We the captives, they the freed; We and they are one indeed: 3 One in all we seek or shun, One, because our Lord is one; One in home and one in love; We below, and they above. 4 They whom space on earth divides, Mountains, rivers, ocean-tides; Have they with each other part? Have they fellowship in heart? 5 Each to each may be unknown, Wide apart their lots be thrown; Yet in sacrament and prayer Each with other hath a share. 6 Saints departed, even thus Hold communion still with us; Still with us, beyond the veil, Praising, pleading without fail. 7 So with them our hearts we raise, Share their work and join their praise, Rendering worship, thanks and love To the Trinity above.
