When human voices cannot sing
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #355b (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Grief 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

no singing bird has spoken,
nor has the world awoken,

She turns, with joy, 'My Lord! My love!' replying.

we join our voices praising
the God of Jesus' raising,
and sing the triumph of that love amazing. Scripture: John 20:1-16 Languages: English Tune Title: CHURCH CLOSE

Let Hope and Sorrow Now Unite
Author: Brian Wren, 1936- Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #412 (1993) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Grief and Loss Lyrics: 1 Let hope and sorrow now unite
to consecrate life's ending.
And praise good friends now gone from sight,
though grief and loss are rending.
The story in a well-loved face,
the years and days our thoughts retrace,
are treasures worth repeating.
2 With faith, or doubt, or open mind
we whisper life's great question.
The ebb and flow of space and time
surpass our small perception;
yet knowledge grows with joyful gains
and finds out wonders far more strange
than hopes of resurrection. Languages: English Tune Title: ALLEIN GOTT IN DER HÖH
