Refrain: By and by, when the morning comes, All the saints of God are gathered home, We'll tell the story how we've overcome, For we'll understand it better by and by. 2 We are often destitute Of the things that life demands. Want of shelter and of food, thirsty hills and barren lands. We are trusting in the Lord, And according to His Word, We will understand it better by and by. [Refrain] 3 Trials dark on ev'ry hand, And we cannot understand, All the ways that God would lead us to that blessed Promised Land. But He guides us with His eye And we'll follow till we die. For we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain] 4 Temptations, hidden snares Often take us unawares. And our hearts are made to bleed for some thoughtless word or deed. And we wonder why the test When we try to do our best, But we'll understand it better by and by.

O Holy Night

Author: John S. Dwight, 1813-1893 Hymnal: OLOF2018 #267 (2018) Meter: Irregular Tune Title: CANTIQUE DE NOEL First Line: O holy night! the stars are brightly shining Lyrics: 1 O holy night! the stars are brightly shining; It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth. Long lay the world in sin and error pining, Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope- the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn! Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices! O night divine, O night when Christ was born! O night, O holy night, O night divine! 2 Led by the light of faith serenely beaming, With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand. So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming, Here came the Wise Men from Orient land. The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger, In all our trials born to be our Friend. He knows our need— to our weakness is no stranger. Behold your King, before Him lowly bend! Behold your King, before Him lowly bend! 3 Truly He taught us to love one another; His law is love and His gospel is peace. Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother, And in His name all oppression shall cease. Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we; Let all within us praise His holy name. Christ is the Lord! O praise His name forever! His pow’r and glory evermore proclaim! His pow’r and glory evermore proclaim!
