Lambs of the Upper Fold

Author: Paulina Appears in 24 hymnals First Line: 'Mid the pastures green of the blessed isles Lyrics: 1 'Mid the pastures green of the blessed isles, where never is heat or cold, Where the light of life is the Shepherd's smile, Are the lambs of the Upper Fold.

Lambs of the Upper Fold, Lambs of the upper fold, Where the glad new song is the song they sing, Are the lambs of the Upper Fold. 2 There are tiny mounds where the hopes of earth Were laid 'neath the tear-wet mold, But the light that paled at the stricken hearth, Was joy to the Upper Fold. Oh, the white stone beareth a new name now, That never on earth was told, And the tender Shepherd doth guard with care The lambs of the Upper Fold.

The Reaper and the Flowers

Author: Longfellow Appears in 38 hymnals First Line: There is a Reaper, whose name is Death Lyrics: 1 There is a Reaper, whose name is Death, And with his sickle keen, He reaps the bearded grain at a breath, And the flow'rs that grow between. 2 "Shall I have naught that is fair?" saith he; "Have naught but the bearded grain? Though the breath of these flow'rs is sweet to me, I'll give them all back again." 3 He gazed at the flow'rs with tearful eyes, He kissed their drooping leaves; It was for the Lord in Paradise, He bound them in his sheaves. 4 "My Lord hath need of these flow'rets gay" The Reaper said, and smil'd; "Dear tokens of the earth are they, Where he was once a child." 5 "They shall all bloom in fields of light, Transplanted by my care, And saints upon their garments white These sacred blossoms wear." 6 And the mother gave in tears and pain, The flowers she most did love; She knew she should find them all again In the fields of light above. 7 Oh, not in cruelty, not in wrath, The Reaper came that day; 'Twas an angel visited the green earth, And took the flow'rs away. Used With Tune: [There is a Reaper, whose name is Death]

But we have a Helper furnished For the trials we may meet.
