Once to Every Man and Nation

Author: James Russell Lowell Appears in 199 hymnals First Line: Once to ev'ry man and nation Lyrics: 1 Once to ev'ry man and nation Comes the moment to decide, In the strife of truth with falsehood, For the good or evil side; Some great cause, God's new Messiah, Off'ring each the bloom or blight, And the choice goes by forever Twixt that darkness and that light. 2 Then to side with truth is noble, When we share her wretched crust, Ere her cause bring fame and profit, And 'tis prosp'rous to be just; Then it is the brave one chooses While the coward stands aside, Till the multitude make virtue Of the faith they had denied. 3 By the light of burning martyrs, Christ, your bleeding feet we track, Toiling up new Calv'ries ever With the cross that turns not back; New occasions teach new duties, Time makes ancient good uncouth; They must upward still and onward, Who would keep abreast of truth. 4 Though the cause of evil prosper, Yet 'tis truth alone is strong; Though her portion be the scaffold, And upon the throne be wrong: Yet that scaffold sways the future, And, behind the dim unknown, Standeth God within the shadow Keeping watch above his own.

Para Para Pitter Pat

Author: Ugo Nakada; June Nakada Sumida Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Para para, pitter pat Lyrics: 1 Para, para, pitter pat, See it rain, see it rain; Para, para, pitter pat, Tell me why it rains. So the garden hard and dry, Will be soften'd by and by, And the flowers one by one, Soon will see the sun. 2 Chira, chira, wafting down, See it snow, see it snow; Chira, chira, wafting down, Tell me why it snows. So the branches ev'rywhere, Will a snowy blanket wear; Warm and cozy they will stay, On a winter's day. 3 Kira, kira, little stars, See them shine, see them shine; Kira, kira, little stars, Tell me why you shine. So that others travelling, Over roads a-darkening, Soon will find their pathways bright, In the starry light. 4 Chu-chu, little bird, Hear it sing, hear it sing; Chu-chu, little bird, Tell me why you sing. So with others lonely, List'ning to my melody, In their hearts will hear me say, "God loves you today." Topics: Children; God Creation of God; God Gifts of God; God Love of God Scripture: Acts 14:17 Used With Tune: NAKADA Text Sources: Japanese
