Melodious voices move:
On, rolling time! Thou canst not make
The Father cease to love.
2 The parted year had winged feet;
The Saviour still doth stay:
The new year comes; but, Spirit sweet,
Thou goest not away.
3 Our hearts in tears may oft run o'er;
But, Lord, Thy smile still beams:
Our sins are swelling evermore,
But pardoning grace still streams.
4 Lord, from this year more service win,
More glory, more delight:
O make it hours less sad with sin,
Its days with Thee more bright!
Amen. Tune Title: NOX PRAECESSIT

Author: William Gaskell Hymnal: Laudes Domini #578 (1890) Topics: Miscelleneous; New Year; New Year First Line: Our Father! through the coming year Lyrics: 1 Our Father! through the coming year
We know not what shall be;
But we would leave without a fear
Its ordering all to thee.
2 It may be we shall toil in vain
For what the world holds fair;
And all the good we thought to gain
Deceive and prove but care.
3 It may be it shall darkly blend
Our love with anxious fears,
And snatch away the valued friend,
The tried of many years.
4 It may be it shall bring us days
And nights of lingering pain;
And bid us take a farewell gaze
Of these loved haunts of men.
5 But calmly, Lord, on thee we rest;
No fears our trust shall move;
Thou knowest what for each is best,
And thou art Perfect Love. Languages: English

our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home:
2 under the shadow of thy throne
thy saints have dwelt secure;
sufficient is thine arm alone,
and our defence is sure
3 Before the hills in order stood,
or earth received its frame,
from everlasting thou art God,
to endless years the same.
4 A thousand ages, in thy sight,

short as the watch that ends the night
before the rising sun.
5 Time like an ever-rolling stream
soon bears us all away;
we fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.
6 O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
be thou our guide while troubles last,
and our eternal home. Scripture: Psalm 90 Tune Title: ST. ANNE

speaks to our hearts and sets our souls ablaze,

By our Father's voice,

Making us rejoice.

For His word shall never,
Never pass away.

For the sad and sinful
Shall His grace abound;
For the faint and feeble
Perfect strength be found. [Refrain]

The year begins with Thee
Author: John Keble Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #44 (1908) Topics: The Church Year New Year; New Year's Day Lyrics: 1 The year begins with Thee,
And Thou begin'st with woe,
To let the world of sinners see
That blood for sin must flow.
2 Thine infant cries, O Lord,
Thy tears upon the breast,
Are not enough,--the legal sword
Must do its stern behest.
3 Am I a child of tears,
Cradled in care and woe?
And seems it hard my vernal years
Few vernal joys can show?
4 Seemeth it strange to me
My own will to deny?
Seemeth it sad, my soul, to thee,
Under the yoke to lie?
5 I look, and hold my peace:
The Giver of all good
E'en from the womb takes no release
From suffering, tears, and blood.
6 That I may reap in love,
Help me to sow in fear:
So life a winter's morn may prove
To a bright, endless year. Languages: English Tune Title: BARNBY (Passion)

Oh, even now our hearts shall bow, and joyful vows renew.

The civic slander and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and right,
Ring in the common love of good.

Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand wars of old,
Ring in the thousand years of peace.
Ring in the valiant man and free,
The larger heart, the kindlier hand;
Ring out the darkness of the land,
Ring in the Christ that is to be.
