Art Thou Weary, Art Thou Troubled

Author: John M Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #398 (1999) Meter: 8.5.8.3 Lyrics: 1 Art thou weary, art thou troubled, Art thou sore distressed? "Come to me," said One, "and coming, Be at rest." 2 Hath He marks to lead me to Him, If He be my Guide? "In His feet and hands are wound-prints, And His side." 3 Hath He diadem, as monarch, That His brow adorns? "Yes, a crown, in very surety, But of thorns." 4 If I find Him, if I follow, What His guerdon here? "Many a sorrow, many a labor, Many a tear." 5 If I still hold closely to Him, What hath He at last? "Sorrow vanquished, labor ended, Jordan passed." 6 If I ask Him to receive me, Will He say me nay? "Not till earth, and not till heaven Pass away." 7 Finding, following, keeping, struggling, Is He sure to bless? Saints, apostles, prophets, martyrs, Answer, "Yes." AMEN.

Hope still, and thou shalt sing The praise of Him who is thy God, Thy Saviour, and thy King. AMEN. Topics: Worship of the Son Scripture: Psalm 13 Languages: English Tune Title: SPOHR

As With Gladness Men of Old

No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour That manifests the Saviour's power. 4 Asleep in Jesus! O for me May such a blissful refuge be!

At Even, Ere the Sun Was Set

Author: Henry Twells, 1823-1900 Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #596 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 At even, ere the sun was set, The sick, O Lord, around Thee lay; O in what divers pains they met! O with what joy they went away! 2 Once more ’tis eventide, and we, Oppressed with various ills, draw near; What if Thy form we cannot see? We know and feel that Thou art here. 3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel; For some are sick, and some are sad, And some have never loved Thee well, And some have lost the love they had. 4 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest, For none are wholly free from sin; And they who fain would serve Thee best, Are conscious most of wrong within. 5 O Saviour Christ, Thou too art man; Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried; Thy kind but searching glance can scan The very wounds that shame would hide. 6 Thy touch has still its ancient power, No word from Thee can fruitless fall; Hear, in this solemn evening hour, And in Thy mercy heal us all.

At Length There Dawns the Glorious Day

Author: Ozora S. Davis, 1866-1931 Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #379 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 At length there dawns the glorious day By prophets long foretold; At length the chorus clearer grows That shepherds heard of old. The day of dawning Brotherhood Breaks on our eager eyes, And human hatreds flee before The radiant eastern skies. 2 For what are sundering strains of blood, Or ancient caste and creed? One claim unites all men in God To serve each human need. Then here together, brother-men, We pledge the Lord anew Our loyal love, our stalwart faith, Our service strong and true. 3 One common faith unites us all, We seek one common goal, One tender comfort broods upon The struggling human soul. To this clear call of Brotherhood Our hearts responsive ring; We join the glorious new crusade Of our great Lord and King. AMEN.

With so blest a Friend provided, We upon our way would go, Sure of being safely guided, Guarded well from every foe. 3 Every day will be the brighter When Thy gracious face we see; Every burden will be lighter When we know it comes from Thee. Spread Thy love’s broad banner o’er us; Give us strength to serve and wait, Till Thy glory breaks before us Thro' the city’s open gate. AMEN.

I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky, And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh. 3 Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay Close by me forever, and love me, I pray. Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care, And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there. AMEN. Topics: Advent and Nativity Languages: English Tune Title: MULLER
