My God, How Wonderful Thou Art
Author: Rev. Frederick W. Faber Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 344 hymnals Lyrics: 1. My God, how wonderful Thou art,
Thy majesty how bright!
How beautiful Thy mercy-seat
In depths of burning light!
2. O how I fear Thee, living God,
With deepest, tend'rest fears;
And worship Thee with trembling hope
And penitential tears.
3. Yet I may love Thee too, O Lord,
Almighty as Thou art;
For Thou hast stooped to ask of me
The love of my poor heart.
4. No earthly father loves like Thee,
No mother half so mild
Bears and forbears, as Thou hast done
With me, Thy sinful child.
5. Father of Jesus, love's Reward!
What rapture will it be,
Prostrate before Thy throne to lie,
And gaze and gaze on Thee.

Behold the sure Foundation Stone
Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 196 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Behold the sure Foundation Stone
Which God in Zion lays,
To build our heavenly hopes upon,
And His eternal praise.
2 Chosen of God, to sinners dear,
And saints adore the Name;
They trust their whole salvation here,
Nor shall they suffer shame.
3 The foolish builders, scribe and priest,
Reject it with disdain;
Yet on this Rock the church shall rest,
And envy rage in vain.
4 What though the gates of hell withstood,
Yet must this Building rise:
'Tis Thine own work, almighty God,
And wondrous in our eyes. Topics: The Church; The Church Her Foundation and Nature Scripture: Psalm 118 Used With Tune: ST. ETHELDREDA

Thy presence may we feel;
And thus inspired with holy fear,
Before Thine altar kneel.
2 Here may Thy faithful people know
The blessings of Thy love,
The streams that through the desert flow,
The manna from above.
3 We come, obedient to Thy word,
To feast on heavenly food;
Our meat the Body of the Lord,
Our drink his precious Blood.
4 Thus may we all Thy word obey,
For we, O God, are Thine;
And go rejoicing on our way,
Renewed with strength divine.

Beyond the everlasting hills
Author: Ernest Edwin Ryden, b.1886 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Beyond the everlasting hills,
Above the starry skies,
My spirit seeks the home of peace,
Where tears shall dim no eyes.
2 No shadows there shall ever fall,
Nor weary night and long;
No silver cords shall broken be
To hush the sound of song. A-men.
3 There shall I find again the love
Of those I cherished here;
And friendship's ties shall holier be,
And bonds of love more dear.
4 There shall I see thee, O my God,
Creator, Saviour, Friend;
And with angelic voices join
In worship without end.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Holy Week; The Life In Christ Contemplation; The Life In Christ Life Everlasting; Sacraments and Rites Burial of the Dead Used With Tune: ST. ETHELDREDA
