the passover of God:

that we may see aright
the Lord in rays eternal
of resurrection light;
and listening to his greeting
may hear, so calm and strong,
his own 'All hail' and, hearing,
may raise the victors' song.
3 Now let the heavens be joyful
and earth her song repeat,
the whole world shout in triumph
her living Lord to greet;
let all things seen and unseen
their notes of gladness blend,
for Christ the Lord has risen,
our joy that has no end. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 5:7-8 Languages: English Tune Title: ELLACOMBE (1)

The Lord Has Heard and Answered Prayer
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #210 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Eternal Life Lyrics: 1 The Lord has heard and answered prayer
And saved His people in distress;
This to the coming age declare,
That they His holy Name may bless.
2 The Lord, exalted on His throne,
Looked down from heaven with pitying eye
To still the lowly captive’s moan
And save His people doomed to die.

His gracious Name with one accord,
When kings and nations gather there
To serve and worship God the Lord.
4 Before my journey is complete
My vigor fails, my years decline;
My God, O spare me, I entreat;
The days of life are wholly Thine.
5 Attend, O Lord, to my desire,
O haste to answer when I pray,
For grief consumes my strength like fire,
My days as smoke pass swift away.
6 O cut not short my life's brief day,
O Thou whose years eternal run,
Thou who didst earth's foundations lay,
Creator of the stars and sun.
7 The earth and heavens shall pass away,
Like vesture worn and laid aside,
But changeless Thou shalt live for aye,
Thy years forever shall abide.
8 Thou, O Jehovah, shalt endure,
Thy throne forever is the same;
And to all generations sure
Shall be Thy great memorial Name.
9 Thy servants’ children shall remain
Forevermore before Thy face;
Enduring honor they shall gain,
Established ever in Thy grace. Scripture: Psalm 102 Languages: English Tune Title: REST

Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting thou art God,
To endless years the same.

Before the rising sun.

Soon bears us all away;
We fly, forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.

And changeless it shall stand,
Deep writ upon the human heart,
On sea or land.

Implanted in the soul.

While ages roll.

Who was and is, and is to be,
Is still the same. Tune Title: LEONI (YIGDAL)

For the helpless Thou dost care.

Children's children shall abide. Scripture: Psalm 102 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE'S, WINDSOR (ELVEY)

in the seed, an apple tree;

butterflies will soon be free!

there's a spring that waits to be,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.

seeking word and melody;
there's a dawn in every darkness
bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future;
what it holds, a mystery,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
3 In our end is our beginning;
in our time, infinity;
in our doubt there is believing;
in our life, eternity.
In our death, a resurrection;
at the last, a victory,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see. Scripture: Matthew 5:12 Languages: English Tune Title: PROMISE
