Author: Sarah Flower Adams; Erhardt Friedrich Wunderlich Hymnal: Voices Together #658 (2020) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me; still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 2 Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, darkness be over me, my rest a stone; yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 3 There let the way appear steps unto heav’n; all that thou sendest me in mercy giv’n; angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 4 Then, with my waking thoughts bright with thy praise, out of my stony griefs, Bethel I’ll raise; so by my woes to be nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 5 Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky, sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 1 Näher, mein Gott, zu dir, näher zu dir! Drückt mich auch Kummer hier, drohet man mir, soll doch trotz Kreuz und Pein, dies meine Losung sein: Näher, mein Gott, zu dir! Näher zu dir! 2 Bricht mir, wie Jakob dort, Nacht auch herein, find ich zum Ruheort nur einen Stein, ist auch im Traume hier mein Sehnen für und für: … 3 Geht auch die schmale Bahn aufwärts gar steil, führt sie doch himmelan zu unserm Heil. Engel, so licht und schön, winken aus selgen Höhn. … 4 Ist dann die Nacht vorbei, leuchtet die Sonn, weih ich mich dir aufs Neu vor deinem Thron, baue mein Bethel dir und jauchz mit Freuden hier: … 5 Ist mir auch ganz verhüllt dein Weg allhier, wird nur mein Wunsch erfüllt: näher zu dir! Schließt dann mein Pilgerlauf, schwing ich mich freudig auf, … Topics: Comfort; Darkness and Light; Discipleship; Funeral / Memorial Service; Heaven; Protection Scripture: Genesis 28:10-22 Languages: German Tune Title: BETHANY

Master, No Offering Costly and Sweet

Author: Edwin P. Parker Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4293 Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1. Master, no offering costly and sweet, May we, like Magdalene, lay at Thy feet; Yet may love’s incense rise, sweeter than sacrifice, Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee. 2. Daily our lives would show weakness made strong, Toilsome and gloomy ways brightened by song; Some deeds of kindness done, some souls by patience won, Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee. 3. Some word of hope for hearts burdened with fears, Some balm of peace for eyes blinded with tears, Some dews of mercy shed, some wayward footsteps led, Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee. 4. Thus, in Thy service, Lord, till eventide Closes the day of life may we abide; And when earth’s labors cease, bid us depart in peace, Dear Lord to Thee, dear Lord to Thee.

No, Not Despairingly

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4584 Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 First Line: No, not despairingly come I to Thee Lyrics: 1. No, not despairingly come I to Thee; No, not distrustingly bend I the knee: Sin hath gone over me, yet is this still my plea, Jesus hath died. 2. Ah! mine iniquity crimson hath been, Infinite, infinite—sin upon sin: Sin of not loving Thee, sin of not trusting Thee— Infinite sin. 3. Lord, I confess to Thee sadly my sin; All I am tell with Thee, all I have been: Purge Thou my sin away, wash Thou my soul this day; Lord, make me clean. 4. Faithful and just art Thou, forgiving all; Loving and kind art Thou when poor ones call: Lord, let the cleansing blood, blood of the Lamb of God, Pass o’er my soul. 5. Then all is peace and light this soul within; Thus shall I walk with Thee, the loved Unseen; Leaning on Thee, my God, guided along the road, Nothing between.
