Those eternal bowers
Author: J. M. Neale Appears in 60 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Those eternal bowers
Man hath never trod,
Those unfading flowers
Round the throne of God:
Who may hope to gain them,
After weary fight?
Who at length attain them,
Clad in robes of white?
2 He who wakes from slumber
At the Spirit's voice,
Daring here to number
Things unseen his choice:
He who casts his burden
Down at Jesus' Cross;
Christ's reproach his guerdon,
All beside but loss.
3 He who gladly barters
All on earthly ground;
He who, like the martyrs,
Says, "I will be crowned:"
He whose one oblation
Is a life of love,
Knit in God's salvation
To the blest above.
4 Shame upon you, legions
Of the heavenly King,
Citizens of regions
Past imagining!
What, with pipe and tabor
Dream away the light!
When He bids you labour,
When he tells you, "Fight"?
5 Jesu, Lord of glory,
As we breast the tide,
Whisper Thou the story
Of the other side;
Where the saints are casting
Crowns before Thy feet,
Safe for everlasting,
In Thyself complete. Topics: General Used With Tune: DAVID

Holy Spirit, Hear Us
Author: W. H. Parker Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, hear us;
Help us while we sing;
Breathe into the music
Of the praise we bring.
Holy Spirit, prompt us
When we kneel to pray;
Nearer come and teach us
What we ought to say.
2 Holy Spirit, shine Thou
On the Book we read;
Gild its holy pages
With the light we need.
Holy Spirit, give us
Each a lowly mind;
Make us more like Jesus,
Gentle, pure and kind.
3 Holy Spirit, brighten
Little deeds of toil;
And our playful past-times
Let no folly spoil.
Holy Spirit, keep us
Safe from sins which lie
Hidden by some pleasure
From our youthful eye.
4 Holy Spirit, help us
Daily by Thy might,
What is wrong to conquer
And to choose the right.
Holy Spirit, hear us,
Help us while we sing;
Breathe into the music
Of the praise we bring.
Amen. Topics: Holy Spirit; Processionals and Recessionals Pentecost Used With Tune: DAVID
Holy Spirit, Hear Us
Alas my God! my sins are great
Author: Martin Rutilius; Catherine Winkworth Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Alas my God! my sins are great,
My conscience doth upbraid me;
And now I find that in my strait
No man hath power to aid me.
2 And though I flee, in my despair,
In some low spot to hide me,
My griefs would still be with me there,
Thy hand still hold and guide me.
3 Nay, Thee I seek!—I merit naught,
Yet pity and restore me;
Be not Thy wrath, just God, my lot,
Thy Son hath suffered for me.
4 O curb my heart, forgive my guilt,
Make Thou my patience firmer,
For they must miss the good Thou wilt,
Who at Thy chasting murmur.
5 Then deal with me as seems Thee best,
Thy grace will help me bear it,
If but at last I see Thy rest,
And with my Savior share it. Topics: The Catechism Repentance Used With Tune: MORLEY

While the Sun Is Shining
Author: Thomas Alfred Stowell Appears in 37 hymnals Lyrics: 1 While the sun is shining
Brightly in the sky,
Ere the rays declining
Tell that night is high;
Ere the shadows falling,
Lengthen on our way,
Hark! a voice is calling,
"Work while it is day."
2 Work, but not in sadness,
For your Lord above;
He will make it gladness
With His smile of love.
When that Lord returning
Knocketh at the gate,
Let your light be burning,
Be like men who wait.
3 Happy then the meeting,
When you see His face;
Welcome then the greeting
From the throne of grace,
"Good and faithful servant,
Of my Father blest,
Now your work is ended,
Enter into rest."
Amen. Used With Tune: [While the sun is shining]
