Still, still with thee, when purple morning breaketh

Author: Harriet Beecher Stowe, 1812 - 96 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #496 (1958) Lyrics: 1 Still, still with thee, when purple morning breaketh, When the bird waketh, and the shadows flee; Fairer than morning, lovelier than daylight, Dawns the sweet consciousness, I am with thee. 2 Alone with thee, amid the mystic shadows, The solemn hush of nature newly born; Alone with thee in breathless adoration, In the calm dew and freshness of the morn. 3 Still, still with thee, as to each newborn morning A fresh and solemn splendor still is given, So does this blessèd consciousness, awaking, Breathe each day nearness unto thee and heaven. 4 So shall it be at last, in that bright morning, When the soul waketh and life’s shadows flee; O in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning, Shall rise the glorious thought, I am with thee.

Still, Still with Thee, When Purple Morning Breaketh

Author: Harriet Elizabeth (Beecher) Stowe Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #515 (1926) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Lyrics: 1 Still, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh, When the bird waketh, and the shadows flee; Fairer than morning, lovelier than the daylight, Dawns the sweet consciousness, I am with Thee! 2 Alone with Thee, amid the mystic shadows, The solemn hush of nature newly born; Alone with Thee, in breathless adoration, In the calm dew and freshness of the morn. 3 When sinks the soul, subdued by toil, to slumber, Its closing eye looks up to Thee in prayer; Sweet the repose beneath the wings o’ershading, But sweeter still, to wake and find Thee there. 4 So shall it be at last, in that bright morning, When the soul waketh, and life’s shadows flee; O for that hour when fairer than the dawning Shall rise the glorious thought, I am with Thee!

Lead Thou Me On

Author: Harry Armstrong Hymnal: Christ in Song #669 (1908) First Line: Lead Thou me on, and then my feet tho' weary Lyrics: 1 Lead Thou me on, and then my feet tho' weary, Shall never falter in life's rugged way; And tho' my pathway lead thro' wilds most dreary, Guided by thee my feet shall never stray. 2 Fill me with love, and then my life shall ever Show forth the light of Thy sweet love divine; And tho' this world my heart from Thee would sever, I still rejoice in knowing Thou art mine. 3 Give me Thy grace, the grace that more aboundeth When all the hosts of sin upon me roll; And tho' life's care my lonely way surroundeth, Still I can rest, if Thou my life control. 4 Give me Thy peace that passeth understanding, And wraps the soul in calm and sweet repose; And tho' the storms would keep my soul from landing, At length I'll anchor, safe from all my foes. 5 Lord, well I know, all these, and more are given, With Christ in whom all heav'nly riches dwell; In Him by faith I grasp the joys of heaven, And taste the bliss my tongue now fails to tell.

Seek Not Afar For Beauty

Author: Minot J. Savage, 1841-1918 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11892 Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: Seek not afar for beauty; lo, it glows Lyrics: 1 Seek not afar for beauty: lo, it glows In dew-wet grasses all about thy feet; In birds, in sunshine, childish faces sweet, In stars and mountain summits topped with snows. 2 Go not abroad for happiness: for see, It is a flower blooming at thy door. Bring love and justice home, and then no more Thou’lt wonder in what dwelling joy may be. 3 Dream not of noble service elsewhere wrought; The simple duty that awaits thy hand Is God’s voice uttering a divine command, Life’s common deeds build all that saints have thought. 4 In wonder-workings, or some bush aflame, Men look for God and fancy Him concealed; But in earth’s common things He stands revealed, While grass and flowers and stars spell out His name.
