Bless the Lord as day departs
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, 1926- Hymnal: TBP1997 #94 (1997) Meter: 7.8.7.8 Tune Title: ASTHALL Lyrics: 1 Bless the Lord as day departs;
let your lamps be brightly burning,
lifting holy hands and hearts
to the Lord, till day's returning.
2 As within the darkened shrine,
faithful to their sacred calling,
sons and priests of Levi's line
blest the Lord as night was falling:
3 so may we who watch or rest
bless the Lord of earth and heaven,
and by him ourselves be blest,
grace and peace and mercy given. Topics: Evening; Grace; Mercy; Metrical Psalms; Peace Scripture: Psalm 134 Languages: English

Author: Margaret Cropper, 1886-1980 Hymnal: TBP1997 #631 (1997) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Tune Title: AU CLAIR DE LA LUNE First Line: Jesus' hands were kind hands, doing good to all Lyrics: 1 Jesus' hands were kind hands, doing good to all,
healing pain and sickness, blessing children small,
washing tired feet, and saving those who fall;
Jesus' hands were kind hands, doing good to all.

make them strong and gentle, kind in all I do.
Let me watch you, Jesus, till I'm gentle too,
till my hands are kind hands, quick to work for you. Topics: Children and Youth Discipleship; Jesus Christ Healer and Teacher; Kindness; One Life in Christ Discipleship Scripture: Matthew 8:3 Languages: English

The church's one foundation
Author: Samuel John Stone, 1839-1900; Fernand Barth, 1932 Hymnal: TBP1997 #479 (1997) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Tune Title: AURELIA Lyrics: 1 The church's one foundation
is Jesus Christ our Lord;
we are his new creation
by water and the word:
from heaven he came and sought us
that we might ever be
his living servant people,
by his own death set free.
2 Called forth from every nation,
yet one o'er all the earth,
our charter of salvation,
one Lord, one faith, one birth,
one holy name professing
and at one table fed,
to one hope we are pressing,
be Christ's own Spirit led.
3 Though with a scornful wonder
the world sees us oppressed,
by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distressed,
yet saints their watch are keeping;
their cry goes up, "How long?"
But soon the night of weeping
shall be the morn of song.
4 'Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of our war,
we wait the consummation
of peace forevermore;
till with the vision glorious
our longing eyes are blest,
and the great church victorious
shall be the church at rest.
5 We now on earth have union
with God the Three-in-One,
and share, through faith, communion
with those whose rest is won, –
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we,
like them, the meek and lowly,
on high may dwell with thee.

1 L’église universelle
a pour roc Jésus-Christ;
elle est l’oeuvre nouvelle
que sa parole fit.
Habitant le ciel même,
il vint se l’attacher,
et, par un don suprême,
mourut pour la sauver!
2 L’église en sa prière
unit à leur Sauveur
les peuples de la terre,
soumis au seul Seigneur.
C’est son nom qu’elle acclame,
son pain qui la nourrit;
elle verse à toute âme
l’espoir qui la guérit.
3 Honnie et méconnue,
menant de durs combats,
elle attend la venue
de la paix ici-bas.
Contemplant par avance
la fin de son tourment,
la grande délivrance,
le repos permanent.
4 Aujourd’hui, sur la terre,
elle est unie à Dieu,
et, par un saint mystère,
aux élus du saint lieu.
Rends-nous, comme eux, fidèles,
et reçois-nous, Seigneur,
dans la vie éternelle,
dans l’éternel bonheur!

1 Az egyháznak a Jézus a fundámentoma,
A szent Ígére épült fel lelki temploma.
Leszállt a mennyből hívni és eljegyezni őt,
Megváltva drága vérén a váltságban hívőt.
2 Kihívott minden népből egy lelki népet itt,
Kit egy Úr, egy keresztség és egy hit egyesít.
Csak egy nevet magasztal, csak egy cél vonja őt,
és egy terített asztal ád néki új erőt.
3 A világ fejedelme feltámad ellene,
Vagy hamis tudománytól gyaláztatik neve,
S míg egykor felderül majd az Úrnak hajnala,
Csak virrasztói kérdik: Meddig az éjszaka?
4 Sok bajban, küzdelemben meghajszolt, megvetett,
De szent megújulásért és békéért eped,
Míg látomása egykor dicsőn beteljesül,
S a győzedelmes egyház Urával egyesül.
5 A három-egy Istennel már itt e földön egy,
S az üdvözült sereggel egy nép és egy sereg.
Ó mily áldott reménység: Ha itt időnk lejár,
Te boldog szenteiddel fenn Nálad béke vár!

Forty days and forty nights
Author: George Hunt Smyttan 1822-1870 Hymnal: TBP1997 #197 (1997) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Tune Title: AUS DER TIEFE Lyrics: 1 Forty days and forty nights
thou wast fasting in the wild;
forty days and forty nights
tempted, and yet undefiled:
2 Should not we thy sorrow share
and from worldly joys abstain,
fasting with unceasing prayer,
strong with thee to suffer pain?
3 Then if Satan on us press,
Jesus, Saviour, hear our call!
Victor in the wilderness,
grant we may not faint nor fall!
4 So shall we have peace divine;
holier gladness ours shall be;
round us, too, shall angels shine,
such as ministered to thee.
5 Keep, oh keep us, Saviour dear,
ever constant by thy side;
that with thee we may appear
at the eternal Eastertide. Topics: Church Year Lent; Gladness / Happiness; Jesus Christ Temptation of; Peace; Prayer / Prayers / Poems Scripture: Matthew 4:1-11 Languages: English
Forty days and forty nights
Glorious things of thee are spoken
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: TBP1997 #483 (1997) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: AUSTRIA Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
One whose word cannot be broken
formed thee for a wrong abode.
On the Rock of Ages founded,
what can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
thou mayst smile at all thy foes.
2 See the streams of living waters,
springing from eternal love,
well supply thy sons and daughters
and all fear of want remove.
Who can faint while such a river
ever will their thirst assuage?
Grace, which like the Lord, the giver,
never fails from age to age.
3 Round each habitation hovering,
see the cloud and fire appear,
for a glory and a covering,
showing that the Lord is near.
Thus they march, the pillar leading –
light by night and shade by day –
daily on the manna feeding
which God gives them when they pray.
4 Saviour, since of Zion's city
we, through grace, a part may claim,
let the world deride or pity,
we will glory in thy name.
Fading is all worldly pleasure,
all its boasted pomp and show;
solid joys and lasting treasure
none but Zion's children know. Topics: City / City of God; Cloud / Cloudy Pillar; Descants and Fauxbourdons; Fire / Flame; God Love and Grace of; Processionals; Rock; The Church; Thirst; Water Scripture: Exodus 13:21-22 Languages: English

Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
Author: John of Damascus, c.696-c.754; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: TBP1997 #253 (1997) Tune Title: AVE VIRGO VIRGINUM Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness;
God hath brought forth Israel
into joy from sadness,
loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters,
led them with unmoistened foot
through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls today;
Christ hath burst his prison,
and from three days' sleep in death
as a sun hath risen;
all the winter of our sins,
long and dark, is flying
from his light, to whom we give
laud and praise undying.
3 Hallelujah! now we cry
to our King immortal,
who triumphant, burst the bars
of the tomb's dark portal;
hallelujah! with the Son,
God the Father praising;
hallelujah! yet again
to the Spirit raising. Topics: Church Year Easter; Exodus; Jesus Christ Kingship / Reign; Processionals Scripture: Exodus 14:15-22 Languages: English
