Come to a Wedding
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Meter: 5.5.5.4 D Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Lyrics: 1 Come to a wedding,
come to a blessing,
come on a day when
happiness sings!
come rain or sun,
come winter or summer,
celebrate love and
all that it brings.
2 Thanks for the love
that holds us together --
parent and child, and
lover and friend:
thanks to the God whose
love is our center,
source of compassion,
knowing no end.
3 Love is the gift,
and love is the giver,
love is the gold that
makes the day shine,
love forgets self to
care for the other,
love changes life from
water to wine.
4 Come to this wedding,
asking a blessing
for all the years that
living will prove:
health of the body,
health of the spirit --
now to you both we
offer our love.

The God of Abraham praise
Author: Thomas Olivers (1725-1799) Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 440 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:12 Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise,
who reigns enthroned above,
Ancient of everlasting days,
and God of love.
Jehovah, Great I AM!
by earth and heaven confessed,
I bow, and bless the sacred name
for ever blest.
2 The God of Abraham praise,
at whose supreme command
from earth I rise, and seek the joys
at his right hand.
I all on earth forsake,
its wisdom, fame and power,
and him my only portion make,
my shield and tower.
3 He by himself has sworn,
I on his oath depend:
I shall, on eagle's wings upborne,
to heaven ascend;
I shall behold his face,
I shall his power adore
and sing the wonders of his grace
for evermore.
4 There dwells the Lord our King,
the Lord our Righteousness,
triumphant o'er the world and sin,
the Prince of Peace;
on Zion's sacred height
his kingdom he maintains,
and glorious with his saints in light
for ever reigns.
5 The whole triumphant host
give thanks to God on high;
'Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!'
they ever cry.
Hail, Abraham's God, and mine!–
I join the heavenly praise–
all might and majesty are thine,
through endless days. Topics: The Activity of God God in human experience; Adoration Of God; Communion of Saints; Covenant; Heaven Used With Tune: LEONI Text Sources: Based on the Jewish Yigdal

When the bright and glorious morning I shall see,
I shall know my Redeemer when I reach the other side,
And His smile will be the first to welcome me.

I shall know Him, I shall know Him,
And redeemed by His side I shall stand,
I shall know Him, I shall know Him
By the print of the nails in His hand.
2 O the soul-thrilling rapture when I view His blessed face
And the luster of His kindly beaming eye;
How my full heart will praise Him for the mercy, love and grace,
That prepare for me a mansion in the sky. (Chorus)
3 O the dear ones in glory, how they beckon me to come,
And our parting at the river I recall;
To the sweet vales of Eden they will sing my welcome home--
But I long to meet my Savior first of all. (Chorus)
4 Thro' the gates to the city, in a robe of spotless white,
He will lead me where no tears will ever fall;
In the glad song of ages I shall mingle with delight--
But I long to meet my Savior first of all. (Chorus)

When this passing world is done
Author: McCheyne Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 133 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:13 Lyrics: 1 When this passing world is done,
When has sunk yon glorious sun;
When we stand with Christ in glory,
Looking o'er life's finished story,
Then, Lord, shall I fully know--
Not till then--how much I owe!
2 When I hear the wicked call
On the rocks and hills to fall;
When I see them start and shrink,
On the fiery deluge brink,
Then, Lord, shall I fully know--
Not till then--how much I owe!
3 When I stand before the throne,
Clothed in beauty not my own;
When I see thee as thou art,
Love thee with unsinning heart,
Then, Lord, shall I fully know--
Not till then--how much I owe!
4 When the praise of heaven I hear,
Loud as thunders to the ear,
Loud as many waters' noise,
Sweet as harp's melodious voice,
Then, Lord, shall I fully know--
Not till then--how much I owe!

We Walk by Faith, and Not by Sight
Author: Henry Alford (1810-1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 70 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13 Lyrics: 1 We walk by faith and not by sight:
no gracious words we hear
from him who spoke as none e’er spoke,
but we believe him near.
2 We may not touch his hands and side,
nor follow where he trod;
but in his promise we rejoice,
and cry, “My Lord and God!”
3 Help then, O Lord, our unbelief,
and may our faith abound,
to call on you when you are near,
and seek where you are found:
4 that, when our life of faith is done,
in realms of clearer light
we may behold you as you are
with full and endless sight.
