We Believe in God the Father

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #699 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 We believe in God the Father, God Almighty, by whose plan earth and heaven sprang into being, all created things began. We believe in Christ the Savior, Son of God in human frame, virgin born, the child of Mary, upon whom the Spirit came. 2 Christ, who on the cross forsaken, like a lamb to slaughter led, suffered under Pontius Pilate, he descended to the dead. We believe in Jesus risen, heaven’s king to rule and reign, to the Father’s side ascended till as judge he comes again. 3 We believe in God the Spirit; in one church, below, above; saints of God in one communion, one in holiness and love. So by faith, our sins forgiven, Christ our Savior, Lord and Friend, we shall rise with him in glory to the life that knows no end.

Heav'nly Father, Thou Hast Brought Us

Author: Hester P. Hawkins Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2360 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Heav’nly Father, Thou hast brought us Safely to the present day, Gently leading on our footsteps, Watching o’er us all the way. Friend and guide through life’s long journey, Grateful hearts to Thee we bring; But for love so true and changeless How shall we fit praises sing? 2. Mercies new and never failing Brightly shine through all the past, Watchful care and loving-kindness Always near from first to last, Tender love, divine protection Ever with us day and night; Blessings more than we can number Strow the path with golden light. 3. Shadows deep have crossed our pathway; We have trembled in the storm; Clouds have gathered round so darkly That we could not see Thy form; Yet Thy love hath never left us In our griefs alone to be, And the help each gave the other Was the strength that came from Thee. 4. Many that we loved have left us, Reaching first their journey’s end; Now they wait to give us welcome, Brother, sister, child and friend. When at last our journey’s over, And we pass away from sight, Father, take us through the darkness Into everlasting light. Languages: English Tune Title: LUX EOI

He Is Coming, He Is Coming

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2431 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. He is coming, He is coming, Not as once He came before, Wailing Infant born in weakness On a lowly stable floor; But upon His cloud of glory, In the crimson tinted sky, Where we see the golden sunrise, In the rosy distance lie. 2. He is coming, He is coming, Not in pain, and shame, and woe, With the thorn crown on His forehead, And the blood drops trickling slow; But with diadem upon Him, And the scepter in His hand, And the dead all ranged before Him, Raised from death, hell, sea and land. 3. He is coming, He is coming, Not as once He wandered through All the hostile land of Judah, With His followers poor and few; But with all the holy angels Waiting round His judgment seat, And the chosen twelve Apostles, Sitting crownèd at His feet. 4. He is coming, He is coming, Let His lowly first estate, And His tender love, so teach us That in faith and hope we wait, Till in glory eastward burning, Our redemption draweth near, And we see the sign in heaven Of our Judge and Savior dear.

Lord, Thy Ransomed Church Is Waking

Author: Sarah G. Stock Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3983 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Lord, Thy ransomed Church is waking Out of slumber far and near, Knowing that the morn is breaking When the Bridegroom will appear; Waking up to claim the treasure With Thy precious life-blood bought, And to trust in fuller measure All Thy wondrous death hath wrought. 2. Praise to Thee for this glad shower, Precious drops of latter rain; Praise, that by Thy Spirit’s power Thou hast quickened us again; That Thy Gospel’s priceless treasure Now is borne from land to land, And that all the Father’s pleasure Prospers in Thy piercèd hand. 3. Praise to Thee for saved ones yearning O’er the lost and wandering throng; Praise for voices daily learning To upraise the glad new song; Praise to Thee for sick ones hasting Now to touch Thy garment’s hem; Praise for souls believing—tasting All Thy love has won for them. 4. Set on fire our heart’s devotion With the love of Thy dear name; Till o’er every land and ocean Lips and lives Thy cross proclaim. Fix our eyes on Thy returning, Keeping watch till Thou shalt come, Loins well girt, lamps brightly burning, Then, Lord, take Thy servants home. Languages: English Tune Title: LUX EOI

Seek the Lord Who Now Is Present

Author: Fred P. Green Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5961 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Seek the Lord who now is present, pray to One who is at hand. Let the wicked cease from sinning, evildoers change their mind. On the sinful God has pity; those returning God forgives. This is what the Lord is saying to a world that disbelieves. 2. “Judge Me not by human standards! As the vault of heaven soars High above the earth, so higher are my thoughts and ways than yours. See how rain and snow from heaven make earth blossom and bear fruit, Giving you, before returning, seed for sowing, bread to eat: 3. So My Word returns not fruitless; does not from its labors cease Till it has achieved My purpose in a world of joy and peace. God is love! How close the prophet to that vital gospel word! In Isaiah’s inspiration it is Jesus we have heard! The words & music to this hymn are under copyright.

When Upon The Raging Waters

Author: Paul E. Kretzmann Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #15171 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 When upon the raging waters, In the dark and stormy night, The disciples hard were toiling, Weary with the losing fight; When their hearts were filled with terror, And their fears would not be laid, Then the voice of Jesus cheered them: "It is I, be not afraid!" 2 When the storms of life assail us, Billows rise on every hand, When the wind’s discordant shrieking Echoes far o’er sea and land; When the enemies have gathered And their worst attacks have made; Then our Savior’s voice sustains us: "It is I, be not afraid!" 3 When we seem to walk in darkness, Threatened by the powers of hell, When we think no ray of mercy Can the heavy gloom dispel; When the fearful hand of sorrow Like a pall on us is laid, Jesus’ voice sounds thro’ the darkness: "It is I, be not afraid!" 4 Ah, what we regard as danger Often is but fancy wrought, And our foolish dread of darkness Specters sees where there is naught; We forget our Savior’s promise, Which so solemnly He made, When He bids us cease our worry: "It is I, be not afraid!" 5 When at last our pathway brings us To the vale that leads to death, When the darkness soon enfolds us And we feebly gasp for breath, Yet our hearts their trust will strengthen, As we enter in death’s shade, For our Savior’s voice will cheer us: "It is I, be not afraid!"
