Happy Are They

Author: Robert Bridges Hymnal: RITL1985 #524 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Robert Bridges First Line: Happy are they, they that love God Lyrics: 1 Happy are they, they that love God, whose hearts have Christ confessed! who by his cross have found their life, and ’neath his yoke their rest. 2 Glad is the praise, sweet are the songs, when they together sing, and strong the prayers that bow the ear of heav'n’s eternal King. 3 Christ to their homes giveth his peace and makes their loves his own, but ah, what tares the Evil One hath in his garden sown. 4 Sad were our lot, evil this earth, did not its sorrows prove the path whereby the sheep may find the fold of Jesus’ love. 5 Then shall they know, they that love him, how all their pain is good; and death itself cannot unbind their calm beatitude.

Author: Robert Bridges Hymnal: RITL1985 #570 (1985) Meter: 8.9.8.9 D Person Name: Robert Bridges Lyrics: 1 Thee will I love, my God and King; thee will I sing, my strength and tower; forevermore thee will I trust, O God most just of truth and power, who all things hast in order placed, yea, for thy pleasure hast created; and on thy throne, unseen, unknown, reignest alone in glory seated. 2 Set in my heart thy love I find; my wand'ring mind to thee thou leadest; my trembling hope, my strong desire with heav'nly fire thou kindly feedest. Lo, all things fair thy path prepare; thy beauty to my spirit calleth, thine to remain, in joy or pain, and count it gain whate'er befalleth. 3 O more and more thy love extend, my life befriend with heav'nly pleasure, that I may win thy Paradise, thy pearl of price, thy countless treasure. Since but in thee I can go free from earthly care and vain oppression, this prayer I make for Jesus' sake, that thou me take in thy possession.
