Author: Anne H. Shepherd Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #648 (1961) Topics: Resurrection and Life Everlasting First Line: Around the throne of God in heav'n Lyrics: 1 Around the throne of God in heav'n,
Thousands of children stand,
Children whose sins are all forgiv'n,
A holy, happy band,

Singing,
"Glory, glory, glory be to God on high."
2 In flowing robes of spotless white
See ev'ry one arrayed;
Dwelling in everlasting light,
And joys that never fade, [Refrain]
3 What brought them to that world above,
That heav'n so bright and fair,
Where all is peace, and joy, and love;
How came those children there, [Refrain]
4 Because the Saviour shed His blood
To wash away their sin;
Bathed in that pure and precious flood,
Behold them white and clean, [Refrain]
5 On earth they sought the Saviour's grace,
On earth they loved his Name;
So now they see His blesséd face,
And stand before the Lamb, [Refrain]
Amen.

O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go
Author: George Matheson Hymnal: The Hymnbook #400 (1955) Meter: 8.8.8.8.6 Topics: Life Everlasting, The Lyrics: 1 O Love that wilt not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in Thee;
I give Thee back the life I owe,
That in Thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.
2 O Light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to Thee;
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
That in Thy sunshine's blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be.
3 O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to Thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
And feel the promise is not vain
That morn shall tearless be.
4 O Cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from Thee;
I lay in dust life's glory dead,
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be.
Amen. Scripture: Hosea 11:8 Tune Title: ST. MARGARET
O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go
O Love that lights the eastern sky
Author: Rev. Louis F. Benson Hymnal: The Hymnal #433 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Life Everlasting Lyrics: 1 O Love that lights the eastern sky
And shrouds the evening rest,
From out whose hand the swallows fly,
Within whose heart they nest!
2 O life, content beneath the blue!
Or, if God will, the gray,
Then tranquil yet, till light breaks through
To melt the mist away!
3 O death that sails so close to shore
At twilight! From my gate
I scan the darkening sea once more,
And for its message wait.
4 What lies beyond the afterglow?
To life's new dawn how far?
As if an answer, spoken low,
Love lights the evening star.
Amen. Tune Title: VITTEL WOODS
O Love that lights the eastern sky
"For ever with the Lord!"
Author: J. Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #562 (1917) Topics: Life Everlasting Lyrics: 1 "For ever with the Lord!"
Amen! so let it be!
Life from the dead is in that word,
'Tis immortality!
Here is the body pent,
Absent from Him I roam,
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent
A day's march nearer home.
2 My Father's house on high,
Home of my soul, how near!
At times, to faith's unclouded eye,
Thy golden gates appear.
Ah! then my spirit faints
To reach the land I love
The bright inheritance of saints,
Jerusalem above!
3 "For ever with the Lord!"
Father, if 'tis Thy will,
The promise of that faithful word
Even here to me fulfil.
Be Thou at my right hand,
Then can I never fail;
Uphold Thou me, and I shall stand;
Fight, and I must prevail.
4 So when my latest breath
Shall rend the veil in twain,
By death I shall escape from death,
And life eternal gain.
Knowing as I am known,
How shall I love that word,
And oft repeat before the throne,
"For ever with the Lord!" Languages: English Tune Title: NEARER HOME
"For ever with the Lord!"
Jesus lives, and so shall I
Author: Christian F. Gellert; J. D. Lang Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #596 (1961) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Topics: Resurrection and Life Everlasting Lyrics: 1 Jesus lives, and so shall I.
Death! thy sting is gone forever!
He who deigned for me to die,
Lives, the bands of death to sever.
He shall raise me from the dust:
Jesus is my Hope and Trust.
2 Jesus lives and reigns supreme,
And, his Kingdom still remaining,
I shall also be with him,
Ever living, ever reigning.
God has promised: be it must:
Jesus is my Hope and Trust.
3 Jesus lives, and by his grace,
Vict'ry o'er my passions giving,
I will cleanse my heart and ways,
Ever to his glory living.
Me he raises from the dust.
Jesus is my Hope and Trust.
4 Jesus lives, I know full well
Nought from him my heart can sever,
Life nor death nor pow'rs of hell,
Joy nor grief, hence-forth forever.
None of all his saints is lost;
Jesus is my Hope and Trust.
5 Jesus lives and death is now
But my entrance into glory.
Courage, then, my soul, for thou
Hast a crown of life before thee;
Thou shalt find thy hopes were just;
Jesus is the Christian's Trust.
Amen. Scripture: Romans 8:38-39 Languages: English Tune Title: JESUS, MEINE ZUVERSICHT

soon the pearly gates will open;
we shall tread the streets of gold. [Refrain]
