Met Around The Sacred Tomb
Author: Christian I. Latrobe, 1758-1836 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9805 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Met around the sacred tomb,
Friends of Jesus, why those tears?
Mid this sad sepulchral gloom
Shall your faith give way to fears?
He will soon, even as He said,
Rise triumphant from the dead.
2 Hither, sinners, all repair,
And with Jesus Christ be dead;
All are safe from Satan’s snare,
Who to Jesus’ tomb have fled;
Here the weary and oppressed
Find a never ending rest.
3 In Thy death is all my trust,
I have Thee my refuge made;
And when once, consigned to dust,
In the tomb my body’s laid,
Then with savèd souls above
I will praise Thy dying love.
4 But while here I’m left behind,
Burdened with infirmity,
May I help and comfort find,
Visiting Gethsemane,
Calvary and Joseph’s tomb,
Till my Sabbath’s also come. Languages: English Tune Title: CROYLAND

Far Beyond The Dark Blue Sea
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9921 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Far beyond the dark blue sea,
Many little children dwell,
In a land of misery,
Where no gentle voices tell
Those glad tidings which impart
Joy and comfort to the heart.
2 But they bend, from day to day,
To their gods, of wood and stone,
For the Gospel’s cheering ray
Has not made the Savior known;
Few the beams of heav’nly light
Shining in their dreadful night.
3 Children dear, if you have found
Pardon through the Savior’s blood,
Seek to spread the joyful sound,
Seek to bring their souls to God;
Share those blessings rich and true,
Which He kindly gives to you Languages: English Tune Title: SCOTIA

Weary, Lord, Of Struggling Here
Author: Anson D. F. Randolph Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10085 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Weary, Lord, of struggling here
With this constant doubt and fear,
Burdened by the pains I bear,
And the trials I must share—
Help me, Lord, again to flee
To the rest that’s found in Thee.
2 Weakened by the wayward will
Which controls, yet cheats me still;
Seeking something undefined
With an earnest, darkened mind—
Help me, Lord again to flee
To the light that breaks from Thee.
3 Fettered by this earthly scope
In the reach and aim of hope,
Fixing thought in narrow bound
Where no living truth is found—
Help me, Lord, again to flee
To the hope that’s fixed in Thee.
4 Fettered, burdened, wearied, weak,
Lord, once more Thy grace I seek;
Turn, O turn me not away,
Help me, Lord, to watch and pray—
That I never more may flee
From the rest that’s found in Thee.

Weary, Lord, Of Struggling Here
God And Dig My Grave Today
Author: Ernst M. Arndt; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10089 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Go and dig my grave today! Lyrics: 1 Go and dig my grave today!
Weary of my wanderings all,
Now from earth I pass away,
For the heavenly peace doth call;
Angel voices from above
Call me to their rest and love.
2 Go and dig my grave today!
Homeward doth my journey tend,
And I lay my staff away
Here where all things earthly end,
And I lay my weary head
In the only painless bed.
3 What is there I yet should do,
Lingering in this darksome vale?
Proud and mighty, fair to view,
Are our schemes, and yet they fail,
Like the sand before the wind,
That no power of man can bind.
4 Farewell, earth, then; I am glad
That in peace I now depart,
For thy very joys are sad,
And thy hopes deceive the heart;
Fleeting is thy beauty’s gleam,
False and changing as a dream.
5 And to you a last good night,
Sun and moon, and stars so dear;
Farewell all your golden light;
I am travelling far from here,
To the splendors of that day
Where ye all must fade away.
6 Farewell, O ye much-loved friends!
Grief hath smote you as a sword,
But the Comforter descends
Unto them that love the Lord.
Weep not o’er a passing show,
To th’ eternal world I go.
7 Weep not that I take my leave
Of the world; that I exchange
Errors that too closely cleave,
Shadows, empty ghosts that range
Through this world of naught and night,
For a land of truth and light.
8 Weep not, dearest to my heart,
For I find my Savior near,
And I know that I have part
In the pains He suffered here,
When He shed His sacred blood
For the whole world’s highest good.
9 Weep not, my Redeemer lives;
Heavenward springing from the dust,
Clear-eyed Hope her comfort gives;
Faith, Heaven’s champion, bids us trust;
Love eternal whispers nigh,
"Child of God, fear not to die!"

From Cross To Crown
Author: Mrs. Ellen Patton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10311 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: I will flee a wounded dove Lyrics: 1 I will flee a wounded dove
To the mountain of God’s love;
Hide me in the clefted rock,
From the world’s wild tempest shock;
Seal me, Christ, Thy very own,
Anchor me fast to the throne.
2 Shown myself, I fled away,
Out of night into the day;
Show my Lord, I now desire
Heart and brain be set on fire,
Just to do my Master’s will—
When death comes, to praise Him still.
3 I am weak, but Thou art strong;
Bear me through the passing throng
Of life’s cares and bitter grief;
Let me ever find relief
Looking to the height sublime,
Just beyond the shores of time.
4 Drop into my life sweet trust,
Write my name among the just;
Make me yours in heart, my King,
And Thy praises I will sing;
While supplies of grace come down,
Guiding me from cross to crown.

When The Earth Is Bright With Dew
Author: Carol M. Bruening Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10401 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 When the earth is bright with dew,
Thank the Lord for mercies new.
Bless Him for the sun that’s ris’n,
For the flush of early dawn,
Thank Him that the night is past;
Praise Him all the beauteous morn.
2 When the sun is risen high,
Bathing golden all the sky;
Bless the Lord the morn is o’er,
Safe its hours have gone so soon;
Nature now is wide awake;
Praise Him for the glorious noon.
3 When the stars peep out at last,
Thank the Lord the day is past.
Bless Him for its varied scenes,
For its many blessings bright;
Thank Him that we’re nearer Heav’n,
Praise Him, bless Him all the night. Languages: English Tune Title: PUGLIA
When The Earth Is Bright With Dew
As The Hart, With Eager Looks
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10464 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 As the hart, with eager looks,
Panteth for the water-brooks,
So my soul, athirst for Thee,
Pants the living God to see;
When, O when, with filial fear,
Lord, shall I to Thee draw near?
2 Tears my food by night, by day,
Grief consumes my strength away;
While his craft the tempter plies,
"Where is now thy God?" he cries;
This would sink me to despair,
But I pour soul in prayer.
3 For in happier times I went,
Where the multitudes frequent;
I, with them, was wont to bring
Homage to Thy courts, my King:
I, with them, was wont to raise
Festal hymns on holy days.
4 Why art thou cast down, my soul?
God, thy God, shall make thee whole;
Why art thou disquieted?
God shall lift thy fallen head;
And His countenance benign
Be the saving health of thine. Languages: English Tune Title: TURIN
