Come, all ye mourning pilgrims dear
Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 62 hymnals Lyrics:
1.
Come, all ye mourning pilgrims dear,
Who're bound for Canaan's land,
Take courage and fight valiantly,
Stand fast with sword in hand;
Our Captain's gone before us,
Our Father's only Son,
Then, pilgrims dear, pray, do not fear,
But let us follow on.
2.
We have a howling wilderness,
To Canaan's happy shore,
A land of dearth, and pits, and snares,
Where chilling winds do roar.
But Jesus will be with us,
And guard us by the way;
Though enemies examine us,
He'll teach us what to say.
3.
The pleasant fields of paradise,
So glorious to behold,
The valleys clad in living green,
The mountains paved with gold:
The trees of life with heavenly fruit,
Behold how rich they stand
Blow, gentle gales, and bear my soul
To Canaan's happy land.
4.
Sweet rivers of salvation all
Through Canaan's land do roll,
The beams of day bring glittering scenes
Illuminate my soul;
There's ponderous clouds of glory,
All set in diamonds bright;
And there's my smiling Jesus,
Who is my heart's delight.
5.
Already to my raptured sight,
The blissful fields arise,
And plenty spreads her smiling stores,
Inviting to my eyes.
O sweet abode of endless rest,
I soon shall travel there,
Nor earth nor all her empty joys
Shall long detain me here.
6.
Come, all you pilgrim travelers,
Fresh courage take by me;
Meantime I'll tell you how I came,
This happy land to see;
Through faith the glorious telescope
I viewed the worlds above,
And God the Father reconciled,
Which fills my heart with love.

The People Came from Everywhere
Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics:
The people came from everywhere
to hear the Teacher's news.
The blind, the lame, the poor were there,
encouraged by his views.
But those who brought the children near
were quickly sent away:
“The Teacher's far too busy now.
Don't bother him today."
When Jesus saw the children turn,
their faces long and glum,
he told his friends, "When will you learn
that little ones must come?"
He chided them indignantly,
"God's love can't be denied!
Let all the children come to me
and sit here at my side."
"The holy realm of God belongs
to children such as these,
who trust that God will right all wrongs,
forgive, and bring us peace.
If you would also now receive
the love that never ends,
come as a trusting child, believe
in all that God intends."
As once you took your hands and blessed
the children on their way,
now bless us, Jesus, in our quest
to find your love, we pray.
We long to feel your warm embrace,
and hear your kindly word,
that in the presence of your grace
our faith might be assured.

How Happy Every Child of Grace
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 381 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How happy every child of graceWho knows his sins forgiven!This earth, he cries, is not my place,I seek my place in heaven:A country far from mortal sight;Yet, O! By faith I seeThe land of rest, the saints’ delight,The heaven prepar’d for me.2 A stranger in the world below,I calmly sojourn here,Nor can its happiness or woeProvoke my hope or fear:Its evils in a moment end,Its joys as soon are past;But, O! The bliss to which I tendEternally shall last.3 To that Jerusalem aboveWith singing I repair,While in the flesh, my hope and love,My heart and soul are there:There my exalted Saviour stands,My merciful high-priest,And still extends his wounded handsTo take me to his breast.4 What is there here to court my stay,To hold me back from home,While angels beckon me away,And Jesus bids me come?Shall I regret my parted friendsStill in the vale confin’d?Nay, but whene’er my soul ascends,They will not stay behind.5 The race we all are running now,And if I first attain,They too their willing head shall bow,They too the prize shall gain:Now on the brink of death we stand,And if I pass before,They all shall soon escape to land,And hail me on the shore.6 Then let me suddenly remove,That hidden life to share;I shall not lose my friends above,But more enjoy them there.There we in Jesus’ praise shall join,His boundless love proclaim,And solemnize in songs divineThe marriage of the Lamb.7 O what a blessed hope is ours!While here on earth we stay,We more than taste the heavenly powers,And antedate that day:We feel the resurrection near,Our life in Christ conceal’d,And with his glorious presence hereOur earthen vessels fill’d.8 O would he more of heaven bestow,And let the vessel break,And let our ransom’d spirits goTo grasp the God we seek:In rapturous awe on him to gazeWho bought the sight for me,And shout and wonder at his graceThro’ all eternity.Charles Wesley, Funeral Hymns No. 2 (1759)

Decir con tierno amor:
"¡Oh, ven a Mí, no temas más,
Cargado pecador!"
Tal como estaba, a mi Jesús
Cansado yo acudi;
Y luego dulce alivio y paz
Por fe en Él recibí.
2 Oí la voz del Salvador
Decir: "Venid, bebed;
Yo soy la fuente de salud
Que apaga toda sed."
Con sed de Dios, del vivo Dios,
Buscando a mi Emmanuel,
Lo hallé: mi sed Él apagó,
Y ahora vivo en Él.
3 Oí su dulce voz decir:
"Del mundo soy la luz;
Miradme a Mí, os salvaré;
Hay vida por mi cruz."
Mirando a Cristo, luego en Él
Mi norte y sol hallé:
Y en esa luz de vida y paz
Por siempre viviré. Topics: La Vida Cristiana Invitación; Cuaresma; Santa Comunión; Fe; Cruz y Consuelo; Cross and Comfort; Closing; Faith; The Christian Life Invitation; Holy Communion Used With Tune: VOX DILECTI

Unidos en espíritu
Author: Juan Bautista Cabrera, 1837-1916 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Unidos en espíritu
Al coro celestial,
Cantemos con los ángeles
Un cántico triunfal;
Y si vertimos lágrimas
Al frente de la cruz,
Rebose hoy el júbilo
Pues vive el buen Jesús.
2 Lo que en el triste Gólgota
Derrota pareció,
En el sellado túmulo
En triunfo se cambió;
Vencido está el báratro,
Menguado su poder;
Nunca el mortal su súbdito
De hoy más habrá de ser.
3 Del Moria allá en la cúspide
Se obró la salvación,
Allí se ostenta el lábaro
De nuestra redención;
Y sueltos ya los vínculos
De la mortalidad,
La tumba abierta es símbolo
De nuestra libertad.
4 Jesús, de gloria príncipe,
Autor de nuestra paz,
Dirígenos benévola
Tu esplendorosa faz;
Y acepta el dulce cántico
De nuestra gratitud
Por tu valioso dádiva
De la eternal salud. Topics: El Año Cristiano Pascua de Resurrección; Resurrección; Christian Year Easter; Resurrection Used With Tune: ALL SAINTS NEW
