All beautiful the march of days
Author: Frances Whitmarsh Wile Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 86 hymnals 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. Used With Tune: FOREST GREEN
All beautiful the march of days
Great God, we sing that mighty hand
Author: Rev. Philip Doddridge (1702-1751) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 491 hymnals Topics: Special Seasons and Services The New Year Lyrics: 1 Great God, we sing that mighty hand
By which supported still we stand;
The opening year Thy mercy shows;
That mercy crowns it till it close.
2 By day, by night, at home, abroad,
Still are we guarded by our God;
By His incessant bounty fed,
By His unerring counsel led.
3 With grateful hearts the past we own;
The future, all to us unknown,
We to Thy guardian care commit,
And peaceful leave before Thy feet.
4 In scenes exalted or depressed,
Thou art our Joy, and Thou our Rest;
Thy goodness all our hopes shall raise,
Adored through all our changing days.
Amen. Used With Tune: WAREHAM
Great God, we sing that mighty hand
Let children hear the mighty deeds
Author: Rev. Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 180 hymnals 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 Used With Tune: DUNDEE

With heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things hath done,
In whom His world rejoices;
Who, from our mothers' arms,
Hath blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours today.
2 O may this bounteous God
Through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts
And blessed peace to cheer us;
And keep us in His grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next.
3 All praise and thanks to God
The Father now be given,
The Son, and Him who reigns
With Them in highest heaven,
The one eternal God,
Whom earth and heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.

All things are Thine; no gift have we
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 92 hymnals 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.

Whose arm doth bind the restless wave,
Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep:
O hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea.
2 O Saviour, whose almighty word
The winds and waves submissive heard,
Who walkedst on the foaming deep
And calm amid its rage didst sleep:
O hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea.
3 O sacred Spirit, who didst brood
Upon the chaos dark and rude,
Who bad'st its angry tumult cease,
And gavest light and life and peace:
O hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea.
4 O Trinity of love and power,
Our brethren shield in danger's hour;
From rock and tempest, fire and foe,
Protect them wheresoe'er they go;
And ever let there rise to Thee
Glad hymns of praise from land and sea.

Be Thou our Rock, our Life, our Thought,
And we, as living temples, Thine.

Unto each waiting heart;
Source of all strength Thou art,
Thy Gospel bless!

Glad hearts to Thee we bring,
Till we our God and King
Shall praise in heaven!

Come, O Thou God of grace
Come, ye thankful people, come
Author: Rev. Henry Alford Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 727 hymnals Topics: Special Seasons and Services Thanksgiving and Harvest Lyrics: 1 Come, ye thankful people, come,
Raise the song of harvest home:
All is safely gathered in,
Ere the winter storms begin;
God, our Maker, doth provide
For our wants to be supplied:
Come to God's own temple, come,
Raise the song of harvest home.
2 All the world is God's own field,
Fruit unto His praise to yield;
Wheat and tares together sown,
Unto joy or sorrow grown;
First the blade, and then the ear,
Then the full corn shall appear;
Lord of harvest, grant that we
Wholesome grain and pure may be.
3 For the Lord our God shall come,
And shall take His harvest home;
From His field shall in that day
All offenses purge away;
Give His angels charge at last
In the fire the tares to cast,
But the fruitful ears to store
In His garner evermore.
4 Even so, Lord, quickly come
To Thy final harvest home;
Gather Thou Thy people in,
Free from sorrow, free from sin;
There, forever purified,
In Thy presence to abide:
Come, with all Thine angels, come,
Raise the glorious harvest home.
Amen. Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE'S, WINDSOR
