When human voices cannot sing
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #355b (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Sorrow; Sorrow and Lament Lyrics: 1 When human voices cannot sing
and human hearts are breaking,
we bring our grief to you, O God,
who knows our inner aching.
2 Set free our spirits from all fear —
the cloud of dark unknowing,
and let the light, the Christ-light show
the pathway of our going.
3 Make real for us your holding love,
the love which is your meaning,
the power to move the stone of death,
the hope of Easter morning.
4 And let the one we love now go
where we, in faith, shall follow,
to travel in the Spirit's peace,
to make an end to sorrow. Scripture: John 11:25-26 Languages: English Tune Title: JACOB'S WELL

In that blest world above
Work never can bring weariness,
For work itself is love.

For life is one glad day;
And tears are of those former things
Which all have passed away.
3 There is no sin in heaven;
Behold that blessed throng
All-holy is their spotless robe!
All-holy is their song!
4 There is no death in heaven:
For they who gain that shore
Have won their immortality,
And they can die no more.
5 Lord Jesus, be our Guide;
And lead us safely on,
Till night, and grief, and sin, and death
Are past, and heaven is won! Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ETHELWALD

thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
take all my guilt away,
oh, let me from this day
be wholly thine!
2 May thy rich grace impart
strength to my fainting heart,
my zeal inspire;
as thou hast died for me,
oh, may my love to thee
pure, warm, and changeless be,
a living fire!
3 While life’s dark maze I tread
and griefs around me spread,
be thou my guide;
bid darkness turn to day,
wipe sorrow’s tears away,
nor let me ever stray
from thee aside.
4 When ends life’s transient dream,
when death’s cold, sullen stream
shall o'er me roll;
blest Savior, then, in love
fear and distrust remove;
oh, bear me safe above,
a ransomed soul! Languages: English Tune Title: OLIVET

If God My Lord Be for Me

I may a host defy;
for when I pray, before me
my foes, confounded, fly.
If Christ, my head and master,
befriend me from above,
What foe or what disaster
Can drive me from His love?
2 I build on this foundation,
that Jesus and his blood
alone are my salvation,
the true, eternal good.
Without him all that pleases
will vain and empty prove.
The gifts I have from Jesus
alone are worth my love.
3 Christ Jesus is my splendor,
my sun, my light, alone;
were he not my defender
before the judgment throne,
I never should find favor
and mercy in God's sight,
but be destroyed forever
as darkness by the light.
4 For joy my heart is ringing;
all sorrow disappears;
and full of mirth and singing,
it wipes away all tears.
The sun that cheers my spirit
is Jesus Christ, my king;
the heav'n I shall inherit
makes me rejoice and sing.
