God, that madest earth and heaven
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826; Richard Whately, 1787-1863 Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8.8.4 Appears in 473 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1:1 Lyrics: 1 God, that madest earth and heaven,
darkness and light;
who the day for toil hast given,
for rest the night;
may thine angel-guards defend us,
slumber sweet thy mercy send us,
holy dreams and hopes attend us,
this livelong night.
2 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping,
and, when we die,
may we in thy mighty keeping
all peaceful lie:
When the last dread call shall wake us,
do not thou our God forsake us,
but to reign in glory take us
with thee on high. Topics: Evening Used With Tune: AR HYD Y NOS
God, that madest earth and heaven
I to the hills will lift mine eyes
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 76 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1:1 Lyrics: 1 I to the hills will lift mine eyes;
from whence doth come mine aid?
My safety cometh from the Lord,
who heaven and earth hath made.
2 Thy foot he'll not let slide, nor will
he slumber that thee keeps;
behold, he that keeps Israel,
he slumbers not, nor sleeps.
3 The Lord thee keeps; the Lord thy shade
on thy right hand doth stay:
the moon by night thee shall not smite,
nor yet the sun by day.
4 The Lord shall keep thy soul; he shall
preserve thee from all ill;
henceforth thy going out and in
God keep for ever will. Topics: Funerals, Commemoration, Remembrance and All Souls Used With Tune: ST MARY Text Sources: Scottish Psalter, 1650

Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright
Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-1866; St Joseph the Hymnogrpher, d. 883 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 69 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1:31 Lyrics: 1 Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright,
filled with celestial resplendence and light,
these that, where night never followeth day,
raise the Trisagion ever and aye:
2 These are thy counsellors, these dost thou own,
Lord God of Sabaoth, nearest thy throne;
these are thy ministers, these dost thou send,
help of the helpless ones, us to defend.
*3 These keep the guard amid Salem's dear bowers;
Thrones, Principalities, Virtues, and Powers;
where, with the Living Ones, mystical Four,
Cherubim, Seraphim bow and adore.
4 'Who like the Lord?' thunders Michael the Chief;
Raphael, 'the Cure of God', comforteth grief;
and, as at Nazareth, prophet of peace,
Gabriel, 'the Light of God', bringeth release.
5 Then, when the earth was first poised in mid-space,
then, when the planets first sped on their race,
then, when were ended the six days’ employ,
then all the Sons of God shouted for joy.
6 Still let them succor us; still let them fight,
Lord of angelic hosts, battling for right;
till, where their anthems they ceaselessly pour,
we with the angels may bow and adore. Topics: St. Michael and All Angels Used With Tune: QUEDLINBURG Text Sources: Greek hymn
