Bellas tus moradas son

Author: Henry Francis Lyte; Anónimo Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Bellas tus moradas son en el cielo de esplendor, ¡Cuán amables son aquí en el mundo de dolor! Mi alma suspirando está por tus atrios, Dios de amor; siempre ansío allí vivir y servirte con fervor. 2 ¡Cuán felices son, Señor, los que junto a tu altar gozan santa comunión, dulce paz y amor sin par! Cual paloma que su pie no encontró do reposar vuelven y hallan siempre allí grato alivio y bienestar. 3 Cual ofrenda en suave olor sube al cielo su canción, tú derramas desde allí, en torrentes, bendición. Pan al alma hambrienta das; al sediento, en su aflicción, de la vida el manantial de tu amor precioso don. Topics: Funerales; Confianza Scripture: Psalm 84 Used With Tune: MAIDSTONE

Thou Who dwellest where is sung Praise to Thee by human tongue, With the presence of Thy grace Dwell henceforth within this place. 3 On Thine aged servants pour Richest mercies from Thy store, And till life's brief hour shall end, Be their Guardian, Saviour, Friend.

Heaven and earth and sea and air

Author: Cox Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Heaven and earth and sea and air God's eternal praise declare; Up, my soul, awake and raise Grateful hymns and songs of praise. See the sun with glorious ray Pierce the clouds at opening day; Moon and stars in splendor bright Praise their God through silent night. 2 See how earth, with beauty checked, Tells a heavenly Architect; Woods and fields, with lowing kine, Show their Maker all divine. See the birds, how, pair by pair, Swift they cleave the yielding air; Thunder, lightning, storm, and wind God doth at his will unbind. 3 See the billows tumbling o'er, Chafing with incessant roar; Hear them as thy sink and swell Loud their Maker's praises tell. Through the world, great God, I trace Wonders of thy power and grace. Write more deeply on my heart What I am, and that thou art.

For our risen Lord and King From our sin hath made us free, Where, O death, is now thy sting? Where, O grave, thy victory? 3 Faith now knows He is the Lord, Gives assent to His decree, Trusts the promise in His Word, And is crowned with victory, Shouting praises to the King, Who from sin hath made us free. Where, O death, is now Thy sting? Where, O grave, Thy victory? Amen. Topics: Easter Used With Tune: MAIDSTONE

"Not Your Own!" But His Ye Are

Author: F. R. Havergal Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 “Not your own!” but His ye are, Who hath paid a price untold For your life, exceeding far All earth’s stores of gems and gold; With the precious blood of Christ, Ransom treasure all unpriced, Full redemption is procured, Full salvation is assured. 2 “Not your own!” but His by right, His peculiar treasure now; Fair and precious in His sight— Purchased jewels for His brow. He will keep what thus He sought, Safely guard the dearly bought Cherish that which He did choose, Always love and never lose. 3 “Not your own!” to Him ye owe All your life and all your love; Live, that ye His praise may show, Who is yet all praise above. Every day and every hour, Every gift and every power Consecrate to Him alone, Who hath claimed you for His own. 4 3 Teach us, Master, how to give All we have and are to Thee; Grant us, Saviour, while we live, Wholly, only Thine to be. Henceforth be our calling high— Thee to serve and glorify! Ours no longer, but Thine own, Thine for ever, Thine alone! Used With Tune: MAIDSTONE
