Author: Emily C. Judson Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Ere last year’s moon had left the sky Lyrics: 1 Ere last year’s moon had left the sky, A birdling sought my Indian nest, And folded, O, so lovingly! Her tiny wings upon my breast. 2 From morn till evening’s purple tinge, In winsome helplessness she lies, Two rose-leaves, with a silken fringe, Shut softly on her starry eyes. 3 There’s not in Ind a lovelier bird— Broad earth owns not a happier nest— O God! Thou hast a fountain stirred, Whose waters nevermore shall rest! 4 This beautiful, mysterious thing, This seeming visitant from Heaven This bird, with the immortal wing, To me—to me, Thy hand has given. 5 The pulse first caught its tiny stroke, The blood, its crimson hue from mine— This life, which I have dared invoke, Henceforth is parallel with Thine. 6 A silent awe is in my room, I tremble with delicious fear; The future, with its light and gloom, Time and eternity, is here. 7 Doubts—hopes, in eager tumult, rise— Hear, O my God! one earnest prayer! Room for my bird in paradise, And give her angel plumage there. Used With Tune: WOODWORTH Text Sources: Olio of Domestic Verses, 1852

Unvail thy bosom, faithful tomb

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 342 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Unvail thy bosom, faithful tomb; Take this new treasure to thy trust And give these sacred relics room To slumber in the quiet dust. 2 Nor pain, nor grief, nor anxious fear, Invades thy bounds; no mortal woes Can reach the peaceful sleeper here, While angels watch the soft repose. 3 So Jesus slept; God's dying Son Passed through the grave, and blessed the bed: Rest here, blest saint, till from his throne The morning break, and pierce the shade.
