From Distant Shores Returning
Author: H. Brueckner; C. Barth Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 From distant shores returning,
The pilgrim journeys home;
For rest His soul is yearning,
He would no longer roam.
2 A flowered grave encloses
What he had held so dear;
He sees the wilting roses,
And looks beyond for cheer.
3 Great cities often glory
In boundless wealth of gold,
But soon the doleful story
Of their decay is told.
4 The harps sweet tones are waning
Upon the silent air,
Nor day nor night retaining
That melody so fair.
5 The pilgrim who the pleasures
Of yonder world can taste,
Cares naught for earthly treasures,
That soon will go to waste.
6 He longs for things immortal,
For joys that ne'er decay,
And so to heaven's portal
He fondly wends his way. Topics: Meditation Used With Tune: VIATOR

The darkness now is over
What sweet of life endureth
Author: St John of Damascus, c. 750; Athelstan Riley, 1858-1945 Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What sweet of life endureth
Unmixed with bitter pain?
’Midst earthly change and chances
What glory doth remain?
2 All is a feeble shadow,
A dream that will not stay;
Death cometh in a moment,
And taketh all away.
3 O Christ, a light transcendent
Shines in thy countenance,
And none can tell the sweetness,
The beauty of thy glance.
4 In this may thy poor servants
His joy eternal find;
Thou calledst them, O rest them,
Thou lover of mankind! Topics: Sacraments and Other Rites Funerals and the Departed Used With Tune: ST MARY MAGDALENE Text Sources: Greek
