The God of love my shepherd is
Author: George Herbert (1593-1633) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #792 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Death and Bereavement 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: Death and Bereavement 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 Lord my pasture shall prepare
Author: Joseph Addison (1672-1719) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #798 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Death and Bereavement Lyrics: 1 The Lord my pasture shall prepare,
and feed me with a shepherd's care;
his presence shall my wants supply,
and guard me with a watchful eye;
my noonday walks he shall attend,
and all my midnight hours defend.
2 When in the sultry glebe I faint,
or on the thirsty mountain pant,
to fertile vales and dewy meads
my weary wandering steps he leads,
where peaceful rivers, soft and slow,
amid the verdant landscape flow.
3 Though in a bare and rugged way
through devious lonely wilds I stray,
thy bounty shall my pains beguile;
the barren wilderness shall smile
with sudden greens and herbage crowned,
and streams shall murmur all around.
4 Though in the paths of death I tread,
with gloomy horrors overspread,
my steadfast heart shall fear no ill,
for thou, 0 Lord, art with me still:
thy friendly staff shall give me aid,
and guide me through the dreadful shade. Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: SURREY

in pastures green; he leadeth me
the quiet waters by.

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 none 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

Year by year, from past to future
Author: Alan Luff (b. 1928) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #829 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Death and Bereavement Lyrics: 1 Year by year, from past to future
worship marks our upward climb,
sets the rhythm of our journey
to eternity through time:
though the outward things diminish
we are held more firm by grace,
following God's heavenward calling
and the everlasting prize.
2 As we seek to weave life's fabric
on the lengthening loom of days,
may Christ guide the threads that form it,
be the pattern it displays;
may the Father, master craftsman,
sorrowing over each mistake,
plan for us a new perfection
from the ugliness we make.
3 Though we long for the adventure
of the mystery of bliss,
to the pilgrim's eyes the pathway
breaks, and ends in death's abyss;
but within the dark are waiting
hands that bear the print of nails,
which will hold us safe and bear us
where the worship never fails. Scripture: John 14:1-4 Languages: English Tune Title: EBENEZER

the grave as little as my bed;
teach me to die, that so I may
rise glorious at the aweful day.

and with sweet sleep my eyelids close,
sleep that may me more vigorous make
to serve my God when I awake.

my soul with heavenly thoughts supply;
let no ill dreams disturb my rest,
no powers of darkness me molest.

praise him, all creatures here below,
praise him above, angelic host,
praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Scripture: Psalm 63:6 Languages: English Tune Title: TALLIS'S CANON
Glory to thee, my God, this night
