God, that madest earth and heaven
Author: Reginald Heber (1783-1826); Richard Whateley (1787 - 1863) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #16 (2013) Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8.8.4 Topics: Future hope Lyrics: 1 God, that madest earth and heaven,
darkness and light;
who the day for toil hast given,
for rest the night;
may thine angel-guards defend us,
slumber sweet thy mercy send us,
holy dreams and hopes attend us,
this livelong night.
2 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping,
and, when we die,
may we in thy mighty keeping
all peaceful lie:
when the last dread call shall wake us,
do not thou our God forsake us,
but to reign in glory take us
with thee on high. Scripture: Genesis 1:1-5 Languages: English Tune Title: AR HYD Y NOS

And to tell the old, old story;
Then, when twilight falls, and my Savior calls,
I shall go to Him in glory.
Chorus:
I’ll exchange my cross for a starry crown,
Where the gates swing outward never;
At His feet I’ll lay ev'ry burden down,
And with Jesus reign forever.
2 Just a few more years with their toil and tears,
And the journey will be ended;
Then I’ll be with Him, where the tide of time
With eternity is blended. [Chorus]
3 Tho' the hills be steep and the valleys deep,
With no flow'rs my way adorning;
Tho' the night be lone and my rest a stone,
Joy awaits me in the morning. [Chorus]
4 What a joy ’twill be when I wake to see
Him for whom my heart is burning!
Nevermore to sigh, nevermore to die--
For that day my heart is yearning. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Just a few more days to be filled with praise]

In the better land,
In that sunny land,
In that Eden land, safe by and by;
In that better land,
In that sunny land,
In that Eden land, safe by and by.
2 With toilsome effort in faith we sow,
Tho’ no harvest our vision cheers;
We will not lose heart, ‘twill all be plain,
In the “home of the endless years.” [Chorus]
3 We’ll labor on with a smile and song,
And we’ll give to the winds our fears,
For the day of trials can’t be long,
Soon the “home of the endless years.” [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Tho' burdens heavy we here must bear]

Saviour, again to thy dear name we raise
Author: John Ellerton (1826-1893) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #22 (2013) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Future hope Lyrics: 1 Saviour, again to thy dear name we raise
with one accord our parting hymn of praise;
we stand to bless thee ere our worship cease;
then, lowly kneeling, wait thy word of peace.
2 Grant us thy peace upon our homeward way;
with thee began, with thee shall end, the day:
guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
that in this house have called upon thy name.
3 Grant us thy peace, Lord, through the coming night;
turn thou for us its darkness into light;
from harm and danger keep thy children free,
for dark and light are both alike to thee.
4 Grant us thy peace throughout our earthly life,
our balm in sorrow, and our stay in strife;
then, when thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,
call us, O Lord, to thine eternal peace. Scripture: Psalm 4:8 Languages: English Tune Title: ELLERS

Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear
Author: John Keble (1792-1866) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #23 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Future hope Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear,
it is not night if thou be near:
O may no earth-born cloud arise
to hide thee from thy servant's eyes.
2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep
my wearied eyelids gently steep,
be my last thought, how sweet to rest
for ever on my Saviour's breast.
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
for without thee I cannot live;
abide with me when night is nigh,
for without thee I dare not die.
4 If some poor wandering child of thine
have spurned to-day the voice divine,
now, Lord, the gracious work begin;
let him no more lie down in sin.
5 Watch by the sick; enrich the poor
with blessings from thy boundless store;
be every mourner's sleep to-night
like infant's slumbers, pure and light.
6 Come near and bless us when we wake,
ere through the world our way we take;
till in the ocean of thy love
we lose ourselves in heaven above. Scripture: Psalm 31:16 Languages: English Tune Title: ABENDS
Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear

No toil for the weary soul,
But the glad new song of the blood-washed throng
In ceaseless joy shall roll. [Chorus]

From care we shall all be free;

The Lamb our light shall be. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Good news, good news from the promised land!]
