All beautiful the march of days
Author: Frances Whitmarsh Wile Hymnal: The Hymnal #471 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Special Seasons and Services The New Year Lyrics: 1 All beautiful the march of days,
As seasons come and go;
The Hand that shaped the rose hath wrought
The crystal of the snow;
Hath sent the hoary frost of heaven,
The flowing waters sealed,
And laid a silent loveliness
On hill and wood and field.
2 O'er white expanses sparkling pure
The radiant morns unfold;
The solemn splendors of the night
Burn brighter through the cold;
Life mounts in every throbbing vein,
Love deepens round the hearth,
And clearer sounds the angel hymn,
"Good will to men on earth."
3 O Thou from whose unfathomed law
The year in beauty flows,
Thyself the vision passing by
In crystal and in rose,
Day unto day doth utter speech,
And night to night proclaim,
In ever-changing words of light,
The wonder of Thy Name.
Amen. Tune Title: FOREST GREEN
All beautiful the march of days
O Thou, whose hand has brought us
Author: Rev. Frederick William Goadby Hymnal: The Hymnal #473 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Special Seasons and Services Laying of a Corner Stone Lyrics: 1 O Thou, whose hand hath brought us
Unto this joyful day,
Accept our glad thanksgiving,
And listen as we pray;
And may our preparation
For this day’s service be
With one accord to offer
Ourselves, O Lord, to Thee.
2 For this Thy house we praise Thee,
Reared at Thine own command,
For every generous bosom,
And every willing hand;
And now within Thy temple
Thy glory let us see,
For all its strength and beauty
Are nothing without Thee.
3 And oft as here we gather,
And hearts in worship blend,
May truth reveal its power,
And fervent prayers ascend;
Here may the busy toiler
Rise to the things above;
The young, the old, be strengthened,
And all men learn Thy love.
Amen. Tune Title: DAY OF REST
O Thou, whose hand has brought us
O Thou whose glory shone like fire
Author: George A. Warburton Hymnal: The Hymnal #477 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Special Seasons and Services Dedication Services: Church Lyrics: 1 O Thou whose glory shone like fire,
Within the ancient Temple walls,
Grant us our heart's sincere desire:
Thy presence in these sacred halls.
2 O Thou who, homeless, wandered wide,
Through far Judea's favored land,
Make this a home for men, and guide
The steps of all with Thy strong hand.
3 O Thou who, sorrowing in the night,
Longed for the love of human friend,
Make here a spring of friendship bright
With Thy rich love that knows no end.
4 O Thou whose life and words were one,
Strong, manly, holy, and divine,
Here may our fellow men be shown
How all may live a life like Thine.
Amen. Tune Title: SOLOTHURN
O Thou whose glory shone like fire
All nature's works His praise declare
Author: Rev. Henry Ware, Jr. Hymnal: The Hymnal #478 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Special Seasons and Services Dedication Services: Organ Lyrics: 1 All nature's works His praise declare,
To whom they all belong;
There is a voice in every star,
In every breeze a song.
Sweet music fills the world abroad
With strains of love and power;
The stormy sea sings praise to God,
The thunder and the shower.
2 To God the tribes of ocean cry,
And birds upon the wing;
To God the powers that dwell on high
Their tuneful tribute bring.
Like them, let man the throne surround,
With them loud chorus raise,
While instruments of loftier sound
Assist his feeble praise.
3 Great God, to Thee we consecrate
Our voices and our skill;
We bid the pealing organ wait
To speak alone Thy will.
Lord, while the music round us floats
May earth-born passions die;
O grant its rich and swelling notes
May lift our souls on high!
Amen. Tune Title: BETHLEHEM
All nature's works His praise declare
Let children hear the mighty deeds
Author: Rev. Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Hymnal #479 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Special Seasons and Services Dedication Services: Memorial Gifts Lyrics: 1 Let children hear the mighty deeds
Which God performed of old;
Which in our younger years we saw,
And which our fathers told.
2 He bids us make His glories known,
His works of power and grace;
And we'll convey His wonders down
Through each succeeding race.
3 Our lips shall tell them to our sons,
And they again to theirs;
That generations yet unborn
May teach them to their heirs.
4 Thus shall they learn in God alone
Their hope securely stands,
That they may ne'er forget His works,
But practice His commands.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 78 Tune Title: DUNDEE
Let children hear the mighty deeds
Founded on Thee, our only Lord
Author: Rev. Samuel F. Smith Hymnal: The Hymnal #474 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Special Seasons and Services Dedication Services: Church Lyrics: 1 Founded on Thee, our only Lord,
On Thee, the everlasting Rock,
Thy Church shall stand as stands Thy word,
Nor fear the storm, nor dread the shock.
2 For Thee our waiting spirits yearn,
For Thee this house of praise we rear;
To Thee with longing hearts we turn;
Come, fix Thy glorious presence here.
3 Come, with Thy Spirit and Thy power,
The Conqueror, once the Crucified;
Our God, our Strength, our King, our Tower,
Here plant Thy throne, and here abide.
4 Accept the work our hands have wrought;
Accept, O God, this earthly shrine;
Be Thou our Rock, our Life, our Thought,
And we, as living temples, Thine.
Amen. Tune Title: MENDON
Founded on Thee, our only Lord
All things are Thine; no gift have we
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Hymnal: The Hymnal #475 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Special Seasons and Services Dedication Services: Church Lyrics: 1 All things are Thine; no gift have we,
Lord of all gifts, to offer Thee;
And hence with grateful hearts today,
Thine own before Thy feet we lay.
2 Thy will was in the builders' thought;
Thy hand unseen amidst us wrought;
Through mortal motive, scheme and plan,
Thy wise eternal purpose ran.
3 In weakness and in want we call
On Thee for whom the heavens are small;
Thy glory is Thy children's good,
Thy joy Thy tender Fatherhood.
4 O Father, deign these walls to bless;
Fill with Thy love their emptiness;
And let their door a gateway be
To lead us from ourselves to Thee.
Amen. Tune Title: HERR JESU CHRIST
All things are Thine; no gift have we
Thou, whose unmeasured temple stands
Author: William Cullen Bryant Hymnal: The Hymnal #476 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Special Seasons and Services Dedication Services: Church Lyrics: 1 Thou, whose unmeasured temple stands,
Built over earth and sea,
Accept the walls that human hands
Have raised, O God, to Thee.
2 And let the Comforter and Friend,
Thy Holy Spirit, meet
With those who here in worship bend
Before Thy mercy seat.
3 May they who err be guided here
To find the better way;
And they who mourn, and they who fear,
Be strengthened as they pray.
4 May faith grow firm, and love grow warm,
And hallowed wishes rise,
While round these peaceful walls the storm
Of earth-born passion dies.
Amen. Tune Title: ST. ANNE

In grateful devotion our tribute we bring.
We lay it before Thee, we kneel and adore Thee,
We bless Thy holy Name, glad praises we sing.
2 We worship Thee, God of our fathers, we bless Thee;
Through life's storm and tempest our Guide hast Thou been.
When perils o'ertake us, escape Thou wilt make us,
And with Thy help, O Lord, our battles we win.
3 With voices united our praises we offer,
To Thee, great Jehovah, glad anthems we raise.
Thy strong arm will guide us, our God is beside us,
To Thee, our great Redeemer, forever be praise.
Amen. Tune Title: KREMSER
We praise Thee, O God, our Redeemer, Creator
Break, new-born year, on glad eyes break
Author: Thomas H. Gill Hymnal: The Hymnal #469 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Special Seasons and Services The New Year Lyrics: 1 Break, new-born year, on glad eyes break,
Melodious voices move:
On, rolling time! Thou canst not make
The Father cease to love.
2 The parted year had winged feet;
The Saviour still doth stay:
The new year comes; but, Spirit sweet,
Thou goest not away.
3 Our hearts in tears may oft run o'er;
But, Lord, Thy smile still beams:
Our sins are swelling evermore,
But pardoning grace still streams.
4 Lord, from this year more service win,
More glory, more delight:
O make it hours less sad with sin,
Its days with Thee more bright!
Amen. Tune Title: NOX PRAECESSIT
Break, new-born year, on glad eyes break
