O Jesus, We Adore Thee
Author: Arthur T. Russell Hymnal: The Hymnbook #200 (1955) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Life Everlasting, The Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, we adore Thee,
Upon the cross, our King!
We bow our hearts before Thee,
Thy gracious name we sing.
That name hath brought salvation,
That name in life our stay,
Our peace, our consolation,
When life shall fade away.
2 Yet doth the world disdain Thee,
Still passing by the cross;
Lord, may our hearts retain Thee;
All else we count but loss.
Ah, Lord, our sins arraigned Thee,
And nailed Thee to the tree:
Our pride, our Lord, disdained Thee;
Yet deign our Hope to be.
3 O glorious King, we bless Thee,
No longer pass Thee by;
O Jesus, we confess Thee
The Son enthroned on high.
Lord, grant to us remission;
Life through Thy death restore;
Yea, grant us the fruition
Of life forevermore.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 27:41-43 Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD
O Jesus, We Adore Thee
Lord, it belongs not to my care
Author: Richard Baxter, 1615 - 91 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #368 (1958) Topics: The Life In Christ Life Everlasting Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care
Whether I die or live;
To love and serve thee is my share,
And this thy grace must give.
2 If life be long, I will be glad
That I may long obey;
If short, yet why should I be sad
To welcome endless day?
3 Christ leads me through no darker rooms
Than he went through before;
He that into God's kingdom comes
Must enter by this door.
4 Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet
Thy blessèd face to see;
For if thy work on earth be sweet,
What will thy glory be?
5 My knowledge of that life is small,
The eye of faith is dim;
But 'tis enough that Christ knows all,
And I shall be with him. Languages: English Tune Title: CHESHIRE
Lord, it belongs not to my care
Angels of Jesus, Angels of light
Author: Rev. Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: The Hymnal #431 (1950) Meter: 11.10.11.10.9.11 Topics: The Life Everlasting First Line: Hark! hark, my soul! angelic songs are swelling Lyrics: 1 Hark! hark, my soul! Angelic songs are swelling
O'er earth's green fields and ocean's wave-beat shore:
How sweet the truth those blessed strains are telling
Of that new life when sin shall be no more.
Refrain:
Angels of Jesus, Angels of light,
Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night!
2 Onward we go, for still we hear them singing,
"Come, weary souls, for Jesus bids you come";
And through the dark, its echoes sweetly ringing,
The music of the gospel leads us home. [Refrain]
3 Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing,
The voice of Jesus sounds o'er land and sea;
And laden souls, by thousands meekly stealing,
Kind Shepherd, turn their weary steps to Thee. [Refrain]
4 Rest comes at length: though life be long and dreary,
The day must dawn, and darksome night be past;
Faith's journeys end in welcome to the weary,
And heaven, the heart's true home, will come at last. [Refrain]
5 Angels, sing on, your faithful watches keeping;
Sing us sweet fragments of the songs above,
Till morning's joy shall end the night of weeping,
And life's long shadows break in cloudless love. [Refrain]
Amen. Tune Title: PILGRIMS (SMART)
Angels of Jesus, Angels of light
Our God, our help in ages past
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #505 (1917) Topics: The Life Everlasting Death Lyrics: 1 Our 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,
Soon bears us all away;
They fly, forgotten as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
6 Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Be Thou our guard while troubles last
And our eternal home!
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ANNE
Our God, our help in ages past
Arise, My Soul, Arise!

Arise, My Soul, Arise!
There is a land of pure delight
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #518 (1917) Topics: The Life Everlasting Heaven 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
This 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 this narrow sea,
And linger, shivering, on the brink,
And fear to launch away.
5 O could we make our doubts remove,
Those gloomy thoughts 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.
Amen.

For ever with the Lord!
Author: James Montgomery, 1771 - 1854 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #590 (1958) Topics: The Life In Christ Life Everlasting Lyrics: 1 For ever with the Lord!
Amen, so let it be;
Life from the dead is in that word,
'Tis immortality.
2 Here in the body pent,
Absent from him I roam,
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent
A day's march nearer home.
3 My Father's house on high,
Home of my soul, how near
At times to faith's foreseeing eye
Thy golden gates appear!
4 Ah, then my spirit faints
To reach the land I love,
The bright inheritance of saints,
Jerusalem above!
5 For ever with the Lord!
Father, if 'tis thy will,
The promise of that faithful word
E'en here to me fulfill.
6 Be thou at my right hand,
Then can I never fail;
Uphold thou me, and I shall stand;
Fight, and I must prevail.
7 So when my latest breath
Shall rend the veil in twain,
By death I shall escape from death,
And life eternal gain.
8 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: CARLISLE
For ever with the Lord!
