Blessed Saviour, thee I love
Now the sun at noon of day
Author: John Brownlie Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics:
Now the sun at noon of day,
Shines upon the earth below;
And the fields in bright array,
Spread their beauty in its glow;--
Jesus, Lord, when noon controls,
May Thy beauty grace our souls.
Weary, when the noon oppressed,
Thou didst rest upon the well,
And a sinning soul was blest,
As Thy words divinely fell;--
Lord, Thy living water give,
That our thirsting souls may live.
11
Once at noon, a midnight dread
Blotted out the earth and sky,
For the God-man bowed His head,
And creation saw Him die;--
May Thy death our dying be,
May we rise, O Christ, with Thee.
In Thy realm of light above,
Rising suns, nor setting, shine;
Thou, Thyself, O Lord of Love,
Ceaseless pour'st Thy light divine;--
Lord, where noontide shines alway
Bring our souls, we humbly pray.
Now the sun at noon of day
Light more glorious than the sun
Author: John Brownlie Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics:
Light more glorious than the sun
Dawns upon our fearful night,
44
And the longed-for day begun,
Pours its everlasting light;
Christ is risen, with gladness then
Hail His rising, sons of men.
Women came at early gloom,
Sad at heart, and full of fears,
Bearing to the dismal tomb,
Spices, mingled with their tears;
"Wherefore weep?" the angel said,
"Christ is risen from the dead."
Lone disciples all amazed
Sought the place where He had lain,
And they knew not as they gazed,
That their Lord had risen again
Mortals, hail the day begun,
Christ hath risen, our glorious Sun.
Mortals, lo! the Christ hath risen,
God-man He, and Lord of life;
Broken now is hades' prison,
Sin is wounded in the strife;
Lo, we hail Thy rising, now,
Christ, the King immortal, Thou.
Light more glorious than the sun
LORD, I Bring My Songs to You

LORD, I Bring My Songs to You
When shall we all meet again
Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 158 hymnals Lyrics:
1.
When shall we all meet again?
When shall we all meet again?
Oft shall glowing hope expire,
Oft shall wearied love retire,
Oft shall death and sorrow reign,
Ere we all shall meet again.
2.
Though in distant lands we sigh,
Parched beneath a hostile sky,
Though the deep between us rolls
Friendship shall unite our souls,
And in fancy's wide domain,
Oft shall we all meet again.
3.
When our burnished locks are gray,
Thinned by many a toil spent day,
When around the youthful pine
Moss shall creep and ivy twine;
Long may the loved bower remain,
Ere we all shall meet again.
4.
When the dreams of life are fled,
When its wasted lamps are dead,
When in cold oblivion's shade,
Beauty, fame, and wealth are laid,
Where immortal spirits reign,
There may we all meet again.

God the Father's Only Son
Author: Samuel J. Stone Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1. God the Father’s only Son,
And with Him in glory One,
One in wisdom, One in might,
Absolute and infinite;
Jesu, I believe in thee,
Thou art Lord and God to me.
2. Preacher of eternal peace,
Christ anointed to release,
Setting wide the dungeon door,
Unto sinners chained before;
Jesu, I believe in Thee,
Christ the Prophet sent to me.
3. Low in deep Gethsemane,
High on dreadful Calvary,
In the garden, on the cross,
Making good our utter loss;
Jesu, I believe in Thee,
Priest and Sacrifice for me.
4. Ruler of Thy ransomed race,
And Protector by Thy grace,
Leader in the way we wend,
And Rewarder at the end;
Jesu, I believe in Thee,
Christ, the King of kings to me.
5. Light revealed through clouds of pain,
That the blind might see again;
Love content in death to lie,
That the dead might never die:
Jesu, I believe in Thee,
Light and Love and Life to me.
6. All that I am fain to know
While I watch and wait below:
All that I would find above,
Length and depth and height of love:
Jesu, I believe in Thee,
Thou art All in All to me. Used With Tune: NUTBOURNE Text Sources: Lyra Fidelium; Twelve Hymns of the Twelve Articles of the Apostle's Creed (London: Messrs. Parker and Company, 1866)

Safely Through Another Week
Author: John Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 1,012 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Safely through another week
God has brought us on our way;
Let us now a blessing seek,
Waiting in His courts today;
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest:
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest.
2 While we pray for pard'ning grace,
Thro' the dear Redeemer's name,
Show Thy reconciled face;
Take away our sin and shame:
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in Thee:
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in Thee.
3 Here we come Thy name to praise,
Let us feel Thy presence near;
May Thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in Thy house appear:
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast:
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.
4 May Thy gospel's joyful sound
Conquer sinners, comfort saints;
Make the fruits of grace abound,
Bring relief for all complaints:
Thus may all our Sabbaths prove,
Till we join the Church above:
Thus may all our Sabbaths prove,
Till we join the Church above.
Amen.

My Anchor Holds
Author: William C. Martin Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 123 hymnals First Line: Though the angry surges roll Refrain First Line: And it holds, my anchor holds Lyrics: 1 Though the angry surges roll
on my tempest-driven soul,
I am peaceful, for I know,
wildly though the winds may blow,
I've an anchor safe and sure,
that can evermore endure.
Refrain:
And it holds, my anchor holds;
blow your wildest then, O gale,
on my bark so small and frail:
by his grace I shall not fail,
for my anchor holds, my anchor holds.
2 Mighty tides about me sweep,
perils lurk within the deep,
angry clouds o'ershade the sky,
and the tempest rises high;
still I stand the tempest's shock,
for my anchor grips the Rock. [Refrain]
3 I can feel the anchor fast
as I meet each sudden blast,
and the cable, though unseen,
bears the heavy strain between;
through the storm I safely ride,
till the turning of the tide. [Refrain]
4 Troubles almost 'whelm the soul;
griefs like billows o'er me roll;
tempters seek to lure astray,
storms obscure the light of day:
but in Christ I can be bold,
I've an anchor that shall hold. [Refrain]
