Today I Live
Author: Fred Kaan Meter: 10.11.10.11 Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Brevity of Life First Line: Today I live, but once shall come my death Lyrics: 1 Today I live, but once shall come my death;
one day shall still my laughter and my crying,
bring to a halt my heartbeat and my breath:
O, give me faith for living and for dying.
2 How I shall die, or when, I do not know,
nor where, for endless is the world's horizon:
but save me, God, from thoughts that lay me low,
from morbid fears that freeze my powers of reason.
3 When earthly life shall close, as close it must,
let Jesus be my brother and my merit.
Let me without regret recall the past
then, then, into your hands commit my spirit.
4 Meanwhile I live and move and I am glad,
enjoy this life and all its interweaving;
each given day, as I take up the thread,
let love suggest my mode, my mood of living.

Life is the time to serve the Lord
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 351 hymnals Topics: Brevity of Life; Life Brevity of Lyrics: 1 Life is the time to serve the Lord,
The time t'ensure the great reward;
And while the lamp holds out to burn,
The vilest sinner may return.
2 Life is the hour that God has given
To ’scape from hell and fly to heaven;
The day of grace, and mortals may
Secure the blessings of the day.
3 Then what my thoughts design to do,
My hands, with all your might pursue,
Since no device, nor work is found,
Nor faith, nor hope, beneath the ground.
4 There are no acts of pardon past
In the cold grave, to which we haste,
But darkness, death, and long despair
Reign in eternal silence there.
Life is the time to serve the Lord

Hallelujah, Praise Jehovah, O My Soul
Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Life Brevity of Lyrics: 1 Hallelujah, praise Jehovah,
O my soul, Jehovah praise;
I will sing the glorious praises
of my God through all my days.
Put no confidence in princes,
nor for help on man depend;
he shall die, to dust returning,
and his purposes shall end.
2 Happy is the man that chooses
Israel's God to be his aid;
he is blessed whose hope of blessing
on the Lord his God is stayed.
Heav'n and earth the Lord created,
seas and all that they contain;
he delivers from oppression,
righteousness he will maintain.
3 Food he daily gives the hungry,
Sets the mourning prisoner free,
raises those bowed down with anguish,
makes the sightless eye to see.
Well Jehovah loves the righteous,
and the stranger he befriends,
helps the fatherless and widow,
judgment on the wicked sends.
4 Hallelujah, praise Jehovah,
O my soul, Jehovah praise;
I will sing the glorious praises
of my God through all my days.
Over all God reigns forever,
through all ages he is King;
unto him, your God, O Zion,
joyful hallelujahs sing.
Scripture: Psalm 146 Used With Tune: RIPLEY Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912; mod.
