They whose course on earth is o'er

Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1 THEY whose course on earth is o’er, Think they of their brethren more? They before the throne who bow, Feel they for their brethren now? 2 We by enemies distrest, They in paradise at rest; We the captives, they the freed; We and they are one indeed: 3 One in all we seek or shun, One, because our Lord is one; One in home and one in love; We below, and they above. 4 They whom space on earth divides, Mountains, rivers, ocean-tides; Have they with each other part? Have they fellowship in heart? 5 Each to each may be unknown, Wide apart their lots be thrown; Yet in sacrament and prayer Each with other hath a share. 6 Saints departed, even thus Hold communion still with us; Still with us, beyond the veil, Praising, pleading without fail. 7 So with them our hearts we raise, Share their work and join their praise, Rendering worship, thanks and love To the Trinity above.

Shall we seek Thee, Lord, in vain? 2. Lord, on Thee our souls depend; In compassion now descend, Fill our hearts with Thy rich grace, Tune our lips to sing Thy praise. 3. In Thine own appointed way Now we seek Thee, here we stay. Lord, we know not how to go Till a blessing Thou bestow. 4. Send some message from Thy Word That may joy and peace afford; Let Thy Spirit now impart Full salvation to each heart. 5. Comfort those who weep and mourn, Let the time of joy return; Those that are cast down lift up, Make them strong in faith and hope. 6. Grant that all may seek and find Thee a gracious God and kind. Heal the sick, the captive free; Let us all rejoice in Thee. Used With Tune: VIENNA Text Sources: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs (London: William Strahan, 1745)
