Great God, we Sing That Mighty Hand

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #41a (1901) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Great God, we sing that mighty Hand, By which supported still we stand: The opening year Thy mercy shows; Let mercy crown it, till it close. 2 By day, by night, at home, abroad, Still we are guarded by our God: By His incessant bounty fed, By His unerring counsel led. 3 With grateful hearts the past we own; The future, all to us unknown, We to Thy guardian care commit, And, peaceful leave before Thy feet. 4 In scenes exalted or deprest, Be Thou our joy, and Thou our rest; Thy goodness all our hopes shall raise, Adored through all our changing days. 5 When death shall interrupt our songs, And seal in silence mortal tongues; Our Helper God, in whom we trust, In better worlds our souls shall boast. Amen. Topics: New Year Languages: English Tune Title: HÄR SAMLAS VI OMKRING DITT ORD

For Thy Mercy and Thy Grace

With Thy rod and staff, O God, Comfort Thou His dying bed. 4 Keep us faithful; keep us pure; Keep us evermore Thine own. Help, oh, help us to endure; Fit us for Thy promised crown. 5 So within Thy palace gate We shall praise, on golden strings, Thee, the only Potentate, Lord of lords, and King of kings. Amen.

While with Ceaseless Course the Sun

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #43 (1901) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 While with ceaseless course the sun Hasted through the former year, Many souls their race have run, Never more to meet us here: Fixed in an eternal state, They have done with all below: We a little longer wait, But how little, none can know. 2 As the winged arrow flies Speedily, the mark to find; As the lightning from the skies Darts, and leaves no trace behind; Swiftly thus our fleeting days Bear us down life's rapid stream: Upward, Lord, our spirits raise; All below is but a dream. 3 Thanks for mercies past receive, Pardon of our sins renew; Teach us henceforth how to live With eternity in view. Bless Thy Word to young and old; Fill us with a Saviour's love; And when life's short tale is told, May we dwell with Thee above. Amen. Topics: New Year Languages: English Tune Title: ELTHAM

O God, we wish them there; Our life, our friends, our souls we leave Entirely to Thy care. 2 Our times are in Thy hand; Whatever they may be, Pleasing or painful, dark or bright, As best may seem to Thee. 3 Our times are in Thy hand; Why should I doubt or fear? A Father's hand will never cause His child a needless tear. 4 Our times are in Thy hand, Jesus, the Crucified, The hand our cruel sins have pierced, Is now our guard and guide. 5 Our times are in Thy hand: We'll always trust on Thee, Till we have left the weary land, And all Thy glory see. Amen. Topics: New Year Languages: English Tune Title: GLEZEN

As with Gladness Men of Old

Author: William Chatterton Dix, 1837-1898 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #46 (1901) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old Did the guiding star behold; As with joy they hailed its light, Leading onward, beaming bright; So, most gracious God, may we Evermore be led by Thee. 2 As with joyful steps they sped, To that lowly manger-bed, There to bend the knee before Him whom heaven and earth adore; So may we, with willing feet Ever seek Thy mercy-seat. 3 As they offered gifts most rare At thy manger, rude and bare; So may we, with holy joy, Pure, and free from sin’s alloy, All our costliest treasures bring, Christ, to Thee, our heavenly King. 4 Holy Jesus, every day Keep us in the narrow way; And, when earthly things are past, Bring our ransomed souls at last Where they need no star to guide, Where no clouds Thy glory hide. 5 In the heavenly country bright Need they no created light: Thou its Light, its Joy, its Crown, Thou its Sun which goes not down: There forever may we sing Hallelujahs to our King. Amen. Topics: Epiphany Languages: English Tune Title: DIX (TREUER HEILAND, WIR SIND HIER)

Now Israel's Hope in Triumph Ends

Author: Samuel Joh. Hedborn, 1783-1849 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #47a (1901) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Now Israel’s hope in triumph ends, With angels’ glorious song ascends A star of heavenly splendor. O’er Bethlehem it shineth bright, All people guided by its light, Shall come and homage render. Great light, Bright light Now descendeth, Darkness endeth, Day beginneth, Light to all the world it bringeth. 2 Among us dwells in truth and grace The hidden God, who loves our race; He brought us all salvation. We now behold His majesty, The only Son’s true majesty, And bow in adoration. Draw near, And hear, Every nation, Now salvation God bestoweth. And His love and mercy showeth. 3 Rejoice, my soul, and bless His Name Who to the lost and fallen came, To open heaven’s portals. Rejoice that God will mercy show, The broken covenant renew With us poor sinful mortals. Now be Glory Ever given God in heaven; Peace unending Be to earth from heaven descending.
