Eternal Beam of Light Divine
Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 96 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Eternal beam of light divine,
Fountain of unexhausted love,
In whom the Father’s glories shine,
Thro' earth beneath, and heav'n above:
2 Jesus, the weary wand'rer’s rest,
Give me thy easy yoke to bear,
With steadfast patience arm my breast,
With spotless love and holy fear.
3 Thankful I take the cup from Thee,
Prepared and mingled by Thy skill,
Tho' bitter to the taste it be,
Pow'rful the wounded soul to heal.
4 Be thou, O Rock of Ages, nigh!
So shall each murmuring thought be gone,
And grief and fear, and care shall fly,
As clouds before the mid-day sun.
5 Speak to my warring passions 'Peace!'
Say to my trembling heart, 'Be still!'
Thy pow'r my strength and fortress is,
For all things serve thy sov'reign will.
6 O death, where is thy sting? Where now
Thy boasted victory, O grave?
Who shall contend with God? or who
Can hurt whom God delights to save? Topics: The Church Lent; Christian Experience and Devotion Consecration and Prayer Used With Tune: ELTHAM
Eternal Beam of Light Divine
Strength to the troubled heart, we come
Author: David Sparks, 20th cent. Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Strength to the troubled heart, we come
with anxious and bewildered minds,
striving to reach for meaning here:
your peace is what we ache to find.
2 Joy of the thankful heart, we come;
good memories are our today,
of friendship given and received,
of family care along life's way.
3 Friend of the lonely heart, we come;
the void that's left is hard to fill;
strong love stays with your grieving ones,
sure touch of grace, death's fears to still.
4 Sun of the rising heart, we come;
Christ's empty tomb new courage gives,
for we are sure, embraced and safe
within your love, our loved one lives.

O God of love, O King of peace
Author: Henry Williams Baker, 1821-1877 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 244 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God of love, O King of peace,
make wars throughout the world to cease;
the wrath of nations now restrain,
give peace, O God, give peace again!
2 Remember, Lord, thy works of old,
the wonders that thy people told;
remember not our sin's dark stain,
give peace, O God, give peace again!
3 Whom shall we trust but thee, O Lord?
Where rest but on thy faithful word?
None ever called on thee in vain,
give peace, O God, give peace again!
