“Let This Cup Pass From Me.”
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #131 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Person Name: Anonymous First Line: A voice upon the midnight air Lyrics:
A voice upon the midnight air,
Where Kedron’s moonlit waters stray,
Weeps forth in agony of prayer,
“O Father, take this cup away!”
Ah, thou who sorrow’st unto death,
We conquer in thy mortal fray;
And earth for all her children saith,
“O God, take not this cup away!”
O Lord of sorrow, meekly die;
Thou’lt heal or hallow all our woe;
Thy peace shall still the mourner’s sigh;
Thy strength shall raise the faint and low.
Great chief of faithful souls, arise;
None else can lead the martyr band,
Who teach the soul how peril flies,
When faith, unarmed, uplifts the hand.
O King of earth, the cross ascend;
O’er climes and ages ’tis thy throne;
Where’er thy fading eye may bend,
The desert blooms and is thine own.
Thy parting blessing, Lord, we pray;
Make but one fold below, above;
And when we go the last, lone way,
O, give the welcome of thy love.

“Let There Be Light.”
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #138 (1866) Person Name: Anonymous First Line: On earth was darkness spread Lyrics:
On earth was darkness spread,
One boundless night;
“Let there be light,” God said,—
And there was light!
There hung a deeper gloom
O’er quick and dead,
But Jesus burst the tomb,
And darkness fled.
God by His word arrayed
Darkness with light;
God by His Son displayed
Day without night.
For thee, O man, arose
Creation’s ray;
For thee, too, brighter glows
Salvation’s day.
The beams first poured on earth
For mortals shone;
The light of later birth
Immortals own.

“Let There Be Light.”
The Presence of Jesus
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #154 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Person Name: Anonymous First Line: When, blest Redeemer, thou art near Lyrics:
When, blest Redeemer, thou art near,
The soul enjoys a sacred peace:
Thy presence calms our every fear,
And gives from every doubt release.
Be with us now, in truth and love,
In strength that conquers every sin;
O, cleanse, and bless, and lift above,
And may thy cross our hearts still win.
In suffering may we strength receive
From memory of thy victory won;
In doubt our drooping hopes revive;—
Thus be thy presence with us shown!
Be ever near our spirits, Lord;
And, drawn by sympathy, may we
Still, through thy cross, thy life, thy word,
In faith and love come near to thee!

One in Christ
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #157 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Anonymous First Line: A Holy air is breathing round Lyrics:
A Holy air is breathing round,
A fragrance from above;
Be every soul from sense unbound,
Be every spirit love.
O God, unite us heart to heart,
In sympathy divine,
That we be never drawn apart,
And love not Thee nor Thine;
But, by the cross of Jesus taught,
And all Thy gracious word,
Be nearer to each other brought,
And nearer to the Lord.

Invitation
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #159 (1866) Person Name: Anonymous First Line: "Come who will," the voice from heaven Lyrics:
“Come who will,” the voice from heaven,
Like a silver trumpet, calls;
“Come who will,”—the church hath given
Back the echo from its walls.
Come, to rivers ever flowing
From the high, eternal throne;
Come, where God, his gifts bestowing,
In the church on earth is known.
Heavenly music! he who listens,
Longing for his spirit’s home,
While his eye with rapture glistens,
Yearning says,—“I come, I come!”

“Come unto Me.”
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #160 (1866) Person Name: Anonymous First Line: Come unto me, when shadows darkly gather Lyrics:
Come unto me, when shadows darkly gather,
When the sad heart is weary and distrest,
Seeking for comfort from your Heavenly Father,
Come unto me, and I will give you rest!
Ye who have mourned when the spring-flowers were taken,
When the ripe fruit fell richly to the ground,
When the loved slept, in brighter homes to waken,
Where their pale brows with spirit-wreaths are crowned;
Large are the mansions in thy Father’s dwelling,
Glad are the homes that sorrows never dim;
Sweet are the harps in holy music swelling,
Soft are the tones which raise the heavenly hymn;
There, like an Eden blossoming in gladness,
Bloom the fair flowers the earth too rudely pressed;
Come unto me, all ye who droop in sadness,
Come unto me, and I will give you rest.

The Weary and Heavy-Laden
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #161 (1866) Person Name: Anonymous First Line: Come to Jesus, O my brothers Lyrics:
Come to Jesus, O my brothers,
Come in this accepted hour;
Jesus ready stands to save you,
Full of pity, love, and power;
He is able,
He is willing,—doubt no more.
Let not conscience make you linger,
Nor of fitness fondly dream;
All the fitness he requireth
Is to feel your need of him;
This he gives you,—
’Tis the spirit’s struggling beam.
Come, ye weary, heavy laden;
Wait not,—’tis your Saviour’s call;
If you tarry till you’re better,
You will never come at all.
Not the righteous,
Sinners, Jesus came to call.

Parting Hymn
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #163 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Anonymous First Line: Through thee as we together came Lyrics:
Through thee as we together came,
In singleness of heart,
And met, O Jesus! in thy name,
So in thy name we part.
Nearer to thee our spirits lead,
And still thy love bestow,
Till thou hast made us free indeed,
And spotless, here below.
When to the right or left we stray,
Leave us not comfortless,
But guide our feet into the way
Of everlasting peace.

The Word of God
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #168 (1866) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Person Name: Anonymous First Line: God of the prophets' power! Lyrics:
God of the prophets’ power!
God of the gospel’s sound!
Move glorious on,—send out Thy voice
To all the nations round.
With hearts and lips unfeigned,
We bless Thee for Thy word;
We praise Thee for the joyful news
Of our ascended Lord.
O, may we treasure well
The counsels that we hear,
Till righteousness and solemn joy
In all our hearts appear.
Water the sacred seed,
And give it large increase;
May neither fowls, nor rocks, nor thorns,
Prevent the fruits of peace.
And though we sow in tears,
Our souls at last shall come,
And gather in our sheaves with joy,
At heaven’s great harvest-home.

Hymn of the Church Triumphant
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #178 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Person Name: Anonymous First Line: Triumphant Zion! lift thy head Lyrics:
Triumphant Zion! lift thy head
From dust, and darkness, and the dead;
Though humbled long, awake at length
And gird thee with thy Saviour’s strength!
Put all thy beauteous garments on,
And let thine excellence be known;
Decked in the robes of righteousness,
Thy glories shall the world confess.
No more shall foes unclean invade,
And fill thy hallowed walls with dread;
No more shall sin’s insulting host
Their victory and thy sorrows boast.
Thy God on high has heard thy prayer,
His hand thy ruin shall repair;
Nor will thy watchful Monarch cease
To guard thee in eternal peace.
