Onward then, and fear not
Author: Frances Ridley Havergal Hymnal: The Hymnal #468 (1950) Topics: Special Seasons and Services The New Year; New Year, The; Year, The New First Line: Standing at the portal Lyrics: 1 Standing at the portal
Of the opening year,
Words of comfort meet us,
Hushing every fear;
Spoken through the silence
By our Father's voice,
Tender, strong, and faithful,
Making us rejoice.
Refrain:
Onward, then, and fear not,
Children of the day;
For His word shall never,
Never pass away.
2 For the year before us,
O what rich supplies!
For the poor and needy
Living streams shall rise;
For the sad and sinful
Shall His grace abound;
For the faint and feeble
Perfect strength be found. [Refrain]
3 He will never fail us,
He will not forsake;
His eternal covenant
He will never break;
Resting on His promise,
What have we to fear?
God is all-sufficient
For the coming year. [Refrain]
Amen. Tune Title: THE NEW YEAR

Melodious voices move:
On, rolling time! Thou canst not make
The Father cease to love.

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

and confidently waiting, come what may,
We know that God is with us night and morning,
and never fails to greet us each new day.
2 Yet is this heart by its old foe tormented,
still evil days bring burdens, hard to bear;
O give our frightened souls the sure salvation
for which, O Lord, you taught us to prepare.
3 And when this cup you give is filled to brimming
with bitter sorrow, hard to understand,
We take it thankfully and without trembling,
out of so good and so beloved a hand.
4 Yet when again in this same world You give us
the joy we had, the brightness of your sun,
We shall remember all the days we lived through,
and our whole life shall then be yours alone. Scripture: Romans 8:31-39 Languages: English Tune Title: BONHOEFFER

our God is making all things new.

Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
2 Ring out the grief that saps the mind,
For those that here we see no more;
Ring out the feud of rich and poor,
Ring in redress to all mankind.
Ring out false pride in place and blood,
The civic slander and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and right,
Ring in the common love of good.
3 Ring out old shapes of foul disease,
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand wars of old,
Ring in the thousand years of peace.
Ring in the valiant man and free,
The larger heart, the kindlier hand;
Ring out the darkness of the land,
Ring in the Christ that is to be.
Amen. Tune Title: JORDAN

The year is gone beyond recall
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #992 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The New Year The Old Year Lyrics: 1 The year is gone beyond recall,
With all its hopes and fears,
With all its bright and gladdening smiles,
With all its mourners’ tears.

The new-born year to bless;
Defend our land from pestilence;
Give peace and plenteousness.

We now desire to flee;
And pray that future years may all
Be spent, good Lord, for thee.

Still look on us in love,
That we may praise thee year by year,
As angels do above.

The fullness of His promises crowns every brightening day;
The fullness of His glory is beaming from above,
While more and more we learn to know the fullness of His love.
3 O let our adoration for all that He hath done
Peal out beyond the stars of God, while voice and life are one;
And let our consecration be real and deep and true,
O even now our hearts shall bow and joyful vows renew.

While grace for grace abundantly shall from His fullness flow,
To glory's full fruition, from glory's foretaste here,
Until His very presence crown our happiest New Year.

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
