Jesus First and Last

Author: Thomas MacKellar Hymnal: HSS1889 #53 (1889) First Line: Jesus! when my soul is parting Lyrics: 1 Jesus! when my soul is parting From this body frail and weak, And the deathly dew is starting Down this pale and wasted cheek,— Thine, my Saviour, Be the name I last shall speak, Be the name I last shall speak. 2 Jesus! when my mem’ry wanders Far from loved ones at my side, And in fitful dreaming ponders Who are they that near me glide,— Last, my Saviour, Let my tho’ts on Thee abide, Let my tho’ts on Thee abide. 3 When the morn in all its glory Charms no more mine ear or eye, And the shadows closing o’er me Warn me of the time to die,— Last, my Saviour, Let me see Thee standing by, Let me see Thee standing by. 4 When my feet shall pass the river, And upon the farther shore I shall walk, redeem’d forever, Ne’er to sin—to die no more,— First, Lord Jesus! Let me see Thee, and adore, Let me see Thee, and adore. Tune Title: [Jesus! when my soul is parting]

Swiftly Fading

Author: Rev. J. B. Atchinson Hymnal: HSS1889 #46 (1889) First Line: Like the bud that quickly blossoms Refrain First Line: Like the stars that fade in sunlight Lyrics: 1 Like the bud that quickly blossoms, Like the blossom soon decayed,— Like the grass that quickly withers, Like the leaf we rapid fade: Like a swift ship on the ocean, Like a swift departing day,— Like a sleep that is but transient,— So we quickly pass away. Refrain: Like the stars that fade in sunlight, Like a raindrop in the sea, So may we, O blessed Saviour, Pass away to dwell with Thee. 2 Like a snowflake in the sunshine, Like the white foam-crested wave,— Like the mists of early morning, So we’re passing to the grave: Like the swiftly passing shadow, Like a tale that’s quickly told,— Swifter than the weaver’s shuttle,— So we all are growing old. [Refrain] 3 Like a dream that’s soon forgotten, Like a meteor in the sky,— Like a postman hastening onward, So man hastens on to die: Like the rapid flowing river,— Like a brief watch in the night,— Like the bubble of a moment,— So we soon pass out of sight. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Like the bud that quickly blossoms]

O melting story Lyrics: 1 Listen! o’er the plains of Judah, Music wakes the starlight night; Voices of the angels singing, Chorals through the vaulted high. Refrain: Peace on earth! O melting story; God and heav’n to men draws nigh; Glory in the highest glory! Glory be to God on high. 2 For this favored time, the promise, Of the waiting years fulfils, As the silence of the starlight, With the angels’ chorus thrills. [Refrain] 3 Yes, the Child in yonder manger Is the Son of God most High And the angel host adore Him, Singing sweetly thro’ the sky. [Refrain] 4 Earth, repeat the wondrous story, Own the Child your rightful King; Let the chorus of the angels, In its truth and sweetness ring. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Listen! over the plains of Judah]
