The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want
Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #459 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Funerals and The Departed Lyrics: 1 THE Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want;
He makes me down to lie
In pastures green; he leadeth me
The quiet waters by.
2 My soul he doth restore again,
And me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness,
E'en for his own name's sake.
3 Yea, though I walk through death's dark vale,
Yet will I fear no ill:
For thou art with me, and thy rod
And staff me comfort still.
4 My table thou hast furnishèd
In presence of my foes;
My head thou dost with oil anoint,
And my cup overflows.
5 Goodness and mercy all my life
Shall surely follow me;
And in God's house for evermore
My dwelling-place shall be. Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: CRIMOND
The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want
There is a land of pure delight
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #460 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Funerals and The Departed Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign;
Infinite day excludes the night,
And pleasures banish pain.
2 There everlasting spring abides,
And never-withering flowers;
Death, like a narrow sea, divides
That heavenly land from ours.
3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
Stand dressed in living green;
So to the Jews old Canaan stood,
While Jordan rolled between.
4 But timorous mortals start and shrink
To cross the narrow sea,
And linger shivering on the brink,
And fear to launch away.
5 O could we make our doubts remove,
Those gloomy doubts that rise,
And see the Canaan that we love
With unbeclouded eyes!
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
And view the landscape o'er,
Not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
Should fright us from the shore!
Languages: English Tune Title: BEULAH

Bless the Lord, my soul
Here from all nations, all tongues, and all peoples
Author: Christopher Idle (b. 1938) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #659 (2013) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Funerals and The Departed Lyrics: 1 Here from all nations, all tongues, and all peoples,
countless the crowd but their voices are one;
vast is the sight and majestic their singing:
'God has the victory; he reigns from the throne!'
2 These have come out of the hardest oppression,
now they may stand in the presence of God,
serving their Lord day and night in his temple,
ransomed and cleansed by the Lamb's precious blood.
3 Gone is their thirst and no more shall they hunger,
God is their shelter, his power at their side:
sun shall not pain them, no burning will torture;
Jesus the Lamb is their shepherd and guide.
4 He will go with them to clear living water
flowing from springs which his mercy supplies;
gone is their grief and their trials are over,
God wipes away every tear from their eyes.
5 Blessing and glory and wisdom and power
be to the Saviour again and again;
might and thanksgiving and honour for ever
be to our God: Alleluia! Amen. Scripture: Revelation 7 Languages: English Tune Title: O QUANTA QUALIA
Here from all nations, all tongues, and all peoples
Jerusalem the golden
Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866); Bernard of Cluny (12h century) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #683 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Funerals and The Departed Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem the golden,
with milk and honey blest,
beneath thy contemplation
sink heart and voice opprest.
I know not, O I know not
what joys await us there,
what radiancy of glory,
what bliss beyond compare.
2 They stand, those halls of Sion,
conjubilant with song,
and bright with many an angel,
and all the martyr throng;
the Prince is ever with them,
the daylight is serene,
the pastures of the blessèd
are decked in glorious sheen.
3 There is the throne of David;
and there, from care released,
the shout of them that triumph,
the song of them that feast;
and they, who with their leader
have conquered in the fight,
for ever and for ever
are clad in robes of white.
4 O sweet and blessèd country,
the home of God's elect!
O sweet and blessèd country
that eager hearts expect!
Jesu, in mercy bring us
to that dear land of rest;
who art, with God the Father
and Spirit, ever blest. Scripture: Revelation 21:1-18 Languages: English Tune Title: EWING
Jerusalem the golden
O God, our help in ages past
Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #746 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Funerals and The Departed Lyrics: 1 O God, our help in ages past,
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 her frame,
from everlasting thou art God,
to endless years the same.
4 A thousand ages in thy sight
are like an evening gone,
short as the watch that ends the night
before the rising sun.
5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
bears all its sons away;
they 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 guard while troubles last,
and our eternal home. Scripture: Psalm 90 Languages: English Tune Title: ST ANNE
O God, our help in ages past
O love that wilt not let me go
Author: George Matheson (1842-1906) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #752 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8.6 Topics: Funerals and The Departed 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. Scripture: Matthew 11:28-29 Languages: English Tune Title: ST MARGARET
O love that wilt not let me go
The God of love my shepherd is
Author: George Herbert (1593-1633) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #792 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Funerals and The Departed Lyrics: 1 The God of love my shepherd is,
and he that doth me feed;
while he is mine and I am his,
what can I want or need?
2 He leads me to the tender grass,
where I both feed and rest;
then to the streams that gently pass:
in both I have the best.
3 Or if I stray, he doth convert,
and bring my mind in frame,
and all this not for my desert,
but for his holy name.
4 Yea, in death's shady black abode
well may I walk, not fear;
for thou art with me, and thy rod
to guide, thy staff to bear.
5 Surely thy sweet and wondrous love
shall measure all my days;
and, as it never shall remove,
so neither shall my praise. Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: UNIVERSITY
The God of love my shepherd is
The King of love my shepherd is
Author: Henry Williams Baker (1821-1877) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #794a (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Funerals and The Departed Lyrics: 1 The King of love my shepherd is,
whose goodness faileth never;
I nothing lack if I am his
and he is mine for ever.
2 Where streams of living water flow
my ransomed soul he leadeth,
and where the verdant pastures grow
with food celestial feedeth.
3 Perverse and foolish oft I strayed,
but yet in love he sought me,
and on his shoulder gently laid,
and home rejoicing brought me.
4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill
with thee, dear Lord, beside me;
thy rod and staff my comfort still,
thy cross before to guide me.
5 Thou spread'st a table in my sight;
thy unction grace bestoweth;
and O what transport of delight
from thy pure chalice floweth!
6 And so through all the length of days
thy goodness faileth never:
good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise
within thy house for ever. Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: DOMINUS REGIT ME
The King of love my shepherd is
