One sweetly solemn thought
Author: Phoebe Cary Hymnal: BWHT1899 #563 (1899) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 One sweetly solemn thought
Comes to me o'er and o'er;
I am nearer my home today
Than e'er I've been before;
2 Nearer the Father's house,
Where many mansions be,
Nearer the throne where Jesus reigns,
Nearer the crystal sea.
3 Nearer the bound of life
Where burdens are laid down;
Nearer leaving the cross of grief,
Nearer gaining the crown.
4 But lying darkly between,
And winding through the night,
Flows on the deep and unknown stream,
That leads me to the light.
5 Jesus, perfect my trust,
Strengthen the hand of my faith,
And be Thou near me when I stand
Upon the shore of death.
Amen. Topics: Death Confidence in; Funerals; Today Languages: English Tune Title: SUNSET
One sweetly solemn thought
Oh, where shall rest be found
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: BWHT1899 #599 (1899) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Oh, where shall rest be found,
Rest for the weary soul?
'Twere vain the ocean's depths to sound,
Or pierce to either pole.
2 The world can never give
The bliss for which we sigh;
'Tis not the whole of life to live,
Nor all of death to die.
3 Beyond this vale of tears
There is a life above,
Unmeasured by the flight of years--
And all that life is love.
4 Here would we end our quest;
Alone are found in Thee
The life of perfect love, the rest
Of immortality.
Amen. Topics: Heaven Rest in; Immortality; Life Solemnity of; Rest Languages: English Tune Title: BRYAN
Oh, where shall rest be found
No, no, it is not dying
Author: Robinson P. Dunn; Caesar Malan Hymnal: BWHT1899 #562 (1899) Meter: 7.6.7.7.6 Lyrics: 1 No, no, it is not dying,
To go unto our God;
This gloomy earth forsaking,
Our journey homeward taking
Along the starry road.
2 No, no, it is not dying
Heaven's citizen to be;
A crown immortal wearing,
And rest unbroken sharing,
From care and conflict free.
3 No, no, it is not dying
The Shepherd's voice to know:
His sheep He ever leadeth,
His peaceful flock He feedeth,
Where living pastures grow.
4 No, no it is not dying
To wear a lordly crown;
Among God's people dwelling,
The glorious triumph swelling
Of Him whose sway we own.
5 Oh, no, this is not dying,
Thou Saviour of mankind!
There streams of love are flowing,
No hindrance ever knowing:
Here only drops we find.
Amen. Topics: Death Confidence in; Death Conquered; Funerals; Immortality Languages: English Tune Title: ENOS

Songs of praise the angels sang
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: BWHT1899 #178 (1899) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Songs of praise the angels sang,
Heaven with alleluias rang,
When Jehovah's work begun,
When He spake, and it was done.
Songs of praise awoke the morn,
When the Prince of Peace was born;
Songs of praise arose when He
Captive led captivity.
2 Heaven and earth must pass away--
Songs of praise shall crown that day;
God will make new heavens and earth--
Songs of praise shall hail their birth,
And shall man alone be dumb,
Till that glorious kingdom come?
No; the Church delights to raise
Psalms and hymns and songs of praise.
3 Saints below, with heart and voice,
Still in songs of praise rejoice;
Learning here, by faith and love,
Songs of praise to sing above.
Borne upon their latest breath
Songs of praise shall conquer death;
Then, amid eternal joy,
Songs of praise their powers employ.
Amen. Topics: God Creator; God Triune; Holy Spirit Worshiped; Praise to the Holy Trinity; Holy Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: WESLEY

Jesus! name of wondrous love!

Bow in deep humility.

To the maiden mother told,
Kneeling in her lowly cell,
By the angel Gabriel.

To the fallen sons of earth,
For the promise that it gave--
"Jesus shall His people save."

Under all the mighty heaven,
Whereby man, to sin enslaved,
Burst their fetters, and is saved.

Human name of God above;
Pleading only this we flee,
Helpless, 0 our God, to Thee.

Let Thy light within me shine;
All my guilty fears remove;
Fill me with Thy heavenly love.

Set the burdened sinner free;
Lead me to the Lamb of God;
Wash me in His precious blood.
3 Life and peace to me impart;
Seal salvation on my heart;
Dwell Thyself within my breast,
Earnest of immortal rest.

Keep me in the narrow way;
Fill my soul with joy divine;
Keep me, Lord, for ever Thine.

Jesus, our triumphant Head
Author: Joseph Hart Hymnal: BWHT1899 #270 (1899) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, our triumphant Head,
Risen victorious from the dead,
To the realms of glory's gone
To ascend His rightful throne.
2 Cherubs on the Conquerer gaze,
Seraphs glow with brighter blaze;
Each bright order of the sky
Hail Him as He passes by,
3 Sinners, join the heavenly powers,
For redemption all is ours.
Humble penitents shall prove
Blood-bought pardon, dying love.
4 Hail, Thou dear, Thou worthy Lord!
Holy Lamb, incarnate Word!
Hail! Thou suffering Son of God!
Take the trophies of Thy blood.
