Lord, now lettest Thou Thy servant
Author: Rev. C. H. L. Schuette, D. D. Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, now let test Thou Thy servant
From this life depart in peace!
Praise be Thine, and blessings fervent,
For the wearied soul's release.
2 He who saw Thy great salvation,
With the eye of faith and love,
In this earthly habitation,
Walketh now by sight above!
3 Cares and crosses all are over,
Sin and sorrow overcome;
And the soul, Christ her Lover,
Hath at last been taken home.
4 While life's paths we still are pressing,
Grant us, Father, steadfast faith,
And, for Christ's sake, grant the blessing
Of a peaceful, Christian death. Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Death and Burial; Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Death and Burial Used With Tune: TONBRIDGE
Lord, now lettest Thou Thy servant
Light of those whose dreary dwelling
Author: C. Wesley Meter: 8.7 Appears in 356 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Light of those whose dreary dwelling
Borders on the shades of death,
Come, and by Thy Love's revealing,
Dissipate the clouds beneath.
2 Thou, new heaven and earth's Creator,
In our deepest darkness rise;
Scattering all the night of nature,
Pouring eyesight on our eyes.
3 Still we wait for Thine appearing;
Life and joy Thy beams impart,
Chasing all our fears, and cheering
Every poor, benighted heart.
4 Come, and manifest the favor
God hath for our ransomed race;
Come, Thou mighty Prince and Saviour,
Come, and bring the Gospel grace.
5 By Thine all-restoring merit,
Every burdened soul release:
Every weary, wandering spirit
Guide into Thy perfect peace. Topics: Advent; Advent, Fourth Sunday; Epiphany, Fifth Sunday; Fourth Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: TONBRIDGE
