Eternal Father! strong to save

Author: William Whiting Hymnal: LHTC1918 #503 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Eternal Father! strong to save, Whose arm doth bind the restless wave, Who bid'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 the rage didst sleep; O hear us when we cry to Thee For those in peril on the sea. 3 O Holy Spirit, Who didst brood Upon the waters dark and rude, And bad'st their angry tumult cease, And give for wild confusion 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. Amen.

It is not death to die

Author: H. A. Cèsar Malan; George Washington Bethune Hymnal: LHTC1918 #504 (1917) Lyrics: 1 It is not death to die-- To leave this weary road, And 'midst the brotherhood on high, To be at home with God. 2 It is not death to close The eye long dimmed by tears, And wake in glorious repose To spend eternal years. 3 It is not death to bear The wrench that sets us free From dungeon chain, to breathe the air Of boundless liberty. 4 It is not death to fling Aside this sinful dust, And rise on strong exulting wing To live among the just. 5 Jesus, Thou Prince of Life, Thy chosen cannot die: Like Thee, they conquer in the strife, To reign with Thee on high. Amen. Topics: The Life Everlasting Death Languages: English Tune Title: MOCCAS

Our God, our help in ages past

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LHTC1918 #505 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Our God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home! 2 Under the shadow of Thy throne Thy saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is Thine arm alone, And our defence is sure. 3 Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received her frame, From everlasting Thou art God, To endless years the same. 4 A thousand ages in Thy sight Are like an evening gone, Short as the watch that ends the night, Before the rising sun. 5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Soon bears us all away; They fly, forgotten as a dream Dies at the opening day. 6 Our God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guard while troubles last And our eternal home!

Lord Jesus Christ, true Man and God

Author: Paul Eber; Catherin Winkworth Hymnal: LHTC1918 #506 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, true Man and God, Who borest anguish, scorn, the rod, And diedst at last upon the Tree, To bring Thy Father's grace for me: I pray Thee, through that bitter woe, Let me, a sinner, mercy know. 2 When comes the hour of failing breath, And I must wrestle, Lord, with death, Then come, Lord Jesus, come with speed, And help me in my hour of need; Lead me from this dark vale beneath, And shorten then the pangs of death. 3 Joyful my resurrection be; Thou in the Judgment plead for me, And hide my sins, Lord, from Thy face, And give me life, of Thy dear grace. I trust in Thee, O blessèd Lord, And claim the promise of Thy Word. Amen. Topics: The Life Everlasting Death Languages: English Tune Title: VATER UNSER

God of the living, in Whose eyes

Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: LHTC1918 #508 (1917) Lyrics: 1 God of the living, in Whose eyes Unveiled Thy whole creation lies, All souls are Thine; we must not say That those are dead who pass away, From this our world of flesh set free; We know them living unto Thee. 2 Released from earthly toil and strife, With Thee is hidden still their life; Thine are their thoughts, their works, their powers, All thine, and yet most truly ours; For well we know, where'er they be, Our dead are living unto Thee. 3 Not spilt like water on the ground, Not wrapped in dreamless sleep profound, Not wandering in unknown despair Beyond Thy voice, Thine arm, Thy care; Not left to lie like fallen tree; Not dead, but living unto Thee. 4 Thy Word is true, Thy will is just; To Thee we leave them, Lord, in trust, And bless Thee for the love which gave Thy Son to fill a human grave, That none might fear that world to see Where all are living unto Thee. 5 O Breather into man of breath, O Holder of the keys of death, O Giver of the life within, Save us from death, the death of sin; That body, soul, and spirit be For ever living unto Thee! Amen. Topics: The Life Everlasting Death Languages: English Tune Title: DAVID'S HARP

Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: LHTC1918 #509a (1917) Lyrics: 1 Now the laborer's task is o'er; Now the battle-day is past; Now upon the farther shore Lands the voyager at last.

Father, in Thy gracious keeping Leave we now Thy servant sleeping. 3 There the ransomed souls, that turn To the Cross their dying eyes, All the love of Christ shall learn At His feet in Paradise. Father, in Thy gracious keeping Leave we now Thy servant sleeping. 4 "Earth to earth, and dust to dust," Calmly now the words we say, Left behind we wait in trust For the Resurrection-day. Father, in Thy gracious keeping Leave we now Thy servant sleeping. 5 Laid in ocean's quiet bed, Calmly now the words we say, "Till the sea gives up her dead;" Till the Resurrection-day.

O how blest are ye whose toils are ended!

Author: Simon Dach; Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Hymnal: LHTC1918 #510 (1917) Lyrics: 1 O how blest are they whose toils are ended! Who, through death, have unto God ascended! Ye have arisen From the cares which keep us still in prison. 2 Christ has wiped away your tears forever; Ye have that for which we still endeavor, By you are chanted Songs that ne'er to mortal ears were granted. 3 Ah! who would then not depart with gladness, To inherit heaven for earthly sadness? Who here would languish Longer in bewailing and in anguish? 4 Come, 0 Christ, and loose the chains that bind us! Lead us forth, and cast this world behind us! With Thee, th'Anointed, Finds the soul its joy and rest appointed. Amen. Topics: The Life Everlasting Death Languages: English Tune Title: O WIE SELIG SEID IHR DOCH
