Trust the Eternal

Author: William P. McKenzie Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6914 Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: Trust the Eternal, when the shadows gather Lyrics: 1. Trust the Eternal, when the shadows gather, When joys of daylight seem so like a dream; God the unchanging, pities like a father: Trust on and wait, the daystar yet shall gleam. 2. Trust the Eternal, for the clouds that vanish No more can move the mountains from their base Than sin’s illusive wreaths of mist can banish Light from His throne or loving from His Face. 3. Trust the Eternal, repent in meekness Of that heart’s pride which frowns and will not yield, Then to thy child-heart shall come strength in weakness, And thine immortal life shall be revealed.

Seek Not Afar for Beauty

Author: Minot J. Savage Hymnal: The Hymnal for Boys and Girls #167 (1936) Meter: 10.10.10.10 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 bout 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 offering 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.

Still, still with Thee

Author: Mrs. H. B. Stowe Hymnal: Concordia #174 (1918) First Line: Still, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh 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 in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning, Shall rise the glorious thought, I am with Thee!
