Eternal Light! Eternal Light
Author: Thomas Binney, 1798-1874 Hymnal: Common Praise #414b (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Eternal Light! Eternal Light!
How pure that soul must be,
when, placed within thy searching sight,
it shrinks not, but with calm delight
can live and look on thee.
2 The spirits that surround thy throne
may bear the burning bliss;
but surely that is theirs alone,
since they have never, never known
a fallen world like this,
3 O how shall I, whose native sphere
is dark, whose mind is dim,
before the Ineffable appear,
and on my naked spirit bear
the uncreated beam?
4 There is a way for man to rise
to that sublime abode;
an offering and a sacrifice,
a Holy Spirit's energies,
an Advocate with God:
5 These, these prepare us for the sight
of holiness above:
the sons of ignorance and night
may dwell in the eternal light,
through the eternal Love! Topics: Sunday Next Before Lent; Proper 26 Year B Scripture: 1 John 1:1-5 Languages: English Tune Title: REPTON
Eternal Light! Eternal Light
O Lord, As You Were on Your Way
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Songs of Grace #24 (2009) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 First Line: O Lord, as you were on your way to where you'd one day die Lyrics: O Lord, as you were on your way to where you'd one day die,
You wanted time to rest and pray, to hear God's word to you that day.
You climbed a mountain high with three good friends close by.
So soon, the three became aware of such a wondrous sight.
Your face shone bright beyond compare, just like a glimpse of heaven there!
Your clothes were dazzling white; your glory came to light.
The Law, the Prophets guided you as you discerned God's will.
With Moses and Elijah, too, you spoke of God's great plan for you,
God's promise to fulfill, one Friday on a hill.
Why could you not remain with them and there in glory stay?
God said, "This is my own dear Son! Now listen to him, everyone!"
And so you turned to say you'd go the harder way.
O Lord, how often we pursue success at any cost,
And yet we hear God's word anew, that we are called to follow you,
Who served the poor and lost and journeyed to the cross.

Dear Lord and Father of mankind
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #144 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
forgive our foolish ways!
Re-clothe us in our rightful mind,
in purer lives thy service find,
in deeper rev'rence praise,
in deeper rev'rence praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard
beside the Syrian sea,
the gracious calling of the Lord,
let us, like them, without a word
rise up and follow thee,
rise up and follow thee.
3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee!
O calm of hills above,
where Jesus knelt to share with thee
the silence of eternity,
interpreted by love!
Interpreted by love!
4 Drop thy still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of thy peace,
the beauty of thy peace.
5 Breathe through the heats of our desire
thy coolness and thy balm;
let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
speak through the earthquake, wind and fire,
O still small voice of calm!
O still small voice of calm!
