When, rising from the bed of death
Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 258 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When, rising from the bed of death,
O’erwhelmed with guilt and fear,
I view my Maker face to face,
O how shall I appear?
If yet, while pardon may be found,
And mercy may be sought,
My heart with inward horror shrinks,
And trembles at the thought;
2 When thou, O Lord, shalt stand disclosed
In majesty severe,
And sit in judgement on my soul,
O how shall I appear?
But thou hast told the troubled mind
Who does her sins lament,
The timely tribute of her tears,
Shall endless woe prevent.
3 Then see the sorrow of my heart,
Ere yet it be too late;
And hear my Saviour’s dying groans,
To give those sorrows weight.
For never shall my soul despair
Her pardon to procure,
Who knows thine only Son has died
To make her pardon sure. Topics: The Christian Year Passiontide Used With Tune: THIRD MODE MELODY
When, rising from the bed of death
Be still, my soul: the Lord is on thy side
Author: Katharina Amalia Dorothea von Schlegel, b. 1697; Jane Laurie Borthwick, 1813-97 Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 178 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Be still, my soul: the Lord is on thy side;
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
Leave to thy God to order and provide;
In every change he faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul: thy best, thy heavenly Friend
Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.
2 Be still, my soul: thy God doth undertake
To guide the future as he has the past.
Thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake;
All now mysterious shall be bright 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 shalt thou better know his love, his heart,
Who comes to soothe thy sorrows and thy fears.
Be still, my soul: thy Jesus can repay,
From his own fulness, 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 forgot, love's purest joys restored.
Be still, my soul: when change and tears are past,
All safe and blessèd we shall meet at last. Topics: Sacraments and Other Rites Funerals and the Departed; All Saints Used With Tune: FINLANDIA

Hark, my soul! It is the Lord
Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 687 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hark, my soul! It is the Lord;
'Tis thy Saviour, hear his word;
Jesus speaks, and speaks to thee,
'Say, poor sinner, lov'st thou me?
2 'I delivered thee when bound,
And, when bleeding, healed thy wound;
Sought thee wandering, set thee right,
Turned thy darkness into light.
3 'Can a woman's tender care
Cease toward the child she bare?
Yes, she may forgetful be,
Yet will I remember thee.
4 'Mine is an unchanging love,
Higher than the heights above,
Deeper than the depths beneath,
Free and faithful, strong as death.
5 'Thou shalt see my glory soon,
When the work of grace is done;
Partner of my throne shalt be;
Say, poor sinner, lov'st thou me?'
6 Lord, it is my chief complaint
That my love is weak and faint;
Yet I love Thee, and adore;
O for grace to love thee more!

Fierce raged the tempest o'er the deep
Author: Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Meter: 8.8.8.3 Appears in 132 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Fierce raged the tempest o’er the deep,
Watch did thine anxious servants keep;
But thou wast wrapped in guileless sleep,
Calm and still.
2 'Save, Lord, we perish,' was their cry,
'O save us in our agony!'
The word above the storm rose high:
'Peace! be still.'
3 The wild winds hushed; the angry deep
Sank, like a little child, to sleep;
The mighty billows ceased to leap,
At thy will.
4 So, when our life is clouded o’er,
And storm-winds drift us from the shore,
Say, lest we sink to rise no more:
'Peace! be still.' Used With Tune: ST AELRED
Fierce raged the tempest o'er the deep
Come labour on!
Author: Jane Laurie Borthwick, 1813-97 Meter: 4.10.10.10.4 Appears in 71 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come labour on!
Who dares stand idle, on the harvest-plain
While all around him waves the golden grain?
And to each servant does the Master say,
'Go work to-day!'
2 Come, labour on!
Claim the high calling angels cannot share,
To young and old the gospel-gladness bear:
Redeem the time; its hours too swiftly fly;
The night draws nigh.
3 Come labour on!
Away with gloomy doubts and faithless fear!
No arm so weak but may do service here;
Though feeblest agents may our God fulfil
His righteous will.
4 Come labour on!
No time for rest, till glows the western sky,
Till the long shadows o’er our pathway lie,
And a glad sound comes with the setting sun,
'Servants, Well done!' Topics: 2 before Advent Used With Tune: ORA LABORA
Come labour on!

In heavenly love abiding
Author: Anna Laetitia Waring, 1823-1910 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 566 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In heavenly love abiding,
No change my heart shall fear;
And safe is such confiding,
For nothing changes here:
The storm may roar without me,
My heart may low be laid;
But God is round about me,
And can I be dismayed?
2 Wherever he may guide me,
No want shall turn me back;
My shepherd is beside me,
And nothing can I lack:
His wisdom ever waketh;
His sight is never dim;
He knows the way he taketh,
And I will walk with him.
3 Green pastures are before me,
Which yet I have not seen;
Bright skies will soon be o'er me,
Where the dark clouds have been:
My hope I cannot measure,
My path to life is free;
My Saviour has my treasure,
And he will walk with me. Topics: Easter 4 Used With Tune: PENLAN
