Be still, my soul: the Lord is on your side

Author: Katharina Amalia Dorothea von Schlegel (1697-after 1768); Jane Laurie Borthwick (1813-1897) Hymnal: AM2013 #594 (2013) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Be still, my soul: the Lord is on your side; bear patiently the cross of grief and pain; leave to your God to order and provide; in every change he faithful will remain. Be still, my soul: your best, your heavenly friend through thorny ways leads to a joyful end. 2 Be still, my soul: your God will undertake to guide the future as he has the past. Your hope, your confidence let nothing shake, all now mysterious shall be clear at last. Be still, my soul: the waves and winds still know his voice, who ruled them while he dwelt below. 3 Be still, my soul: when dearest friends depart and all is darkened in the vale of tears, then you shall better know his love, his heart, who comes to soothe your sorrow, calm your fears. Be still, my soul: for Jesus can repay from his own fullness all he takes away. 4 Be still, my soul: the hour is hastening on when we shall be for ever with the Lord, when disappointment, grief and fear are gone, sorrow forgotten, love's pure joy restored. Be still, my soul: when change and tears are past, all safe and blessèd we shall meet at last.

Before the throne of God above

Author: Charitie Lees De Chenez (1841-1923) Hymnal: AM2013 #598 (2013) Lyrics: 1 Before the throne of God above I have a strong, a perfect plea, a great High Priest, whose name is Love, who ever lives and pleads for me. My name is graven on his hands, my name is written on his heart; I know that while in heaven he stands no tongue can bid me thence depart, no tongue can bid me thence depart. 2 When Satan tempts me to despair, and tells me of the guilt within, upward I look, and see him there who made an end of all my sin. Because the sinless Saviour died, my sinful soul is counted free; for God, the Just, is satisfied to look on him and pardon me, to look on him and pardon me. 3 Behold him there! the risen Lamb! my perfect, spotless Righteousness, the great unchangeable I AM, the King of glory and of grace! One with my Lord, I cannot die; my soul is purchased by his blood; my life is hid with Christ on high, with Christ, my Saviour and my God, with Christ, my Saviour and my God.
