When to our world the Saviour came

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:8 Lyrics: 1 When to our world the Saviour came the sick and helpless heard his name, and in their weakness longed to see the healing Christ of Galilee. 2 That good physician! Night and day the people thronged about his way; and wonder ran from soul to soul, 'The touch of Christ has made us whole!' 3 His praises then were heard and sung by opened ears and loosened tongue, while lightened eyes could see and know the healing Christ of long ago. 4 Of long ago: yet living still, who died for us on Calvary's hill; who triumphed over cross and grave, his healing hands stretched forth to save. 5 His sovereign purpose still remains who rose in power, and lives and reigns; till every tongue confess his praise, the healing Christ of all our days.

Hidden Christ, Alive for Ever

Author: Brian Wren, 1936- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:5 Lyrics: 1 Hidden Christ, alive for ever, Savior, Servant, Friend and Lord, year by year, unseen, you offer life undying, love outpoured. Day by day, you walk among us, known and honored, yet concealed, freeing, chiding, leading, guiding, till your glory is revealed. 2 Endless orbits by our planet spinning round its speeding star cannot trace creation's secret: why we live and whose we are. Jesus, you alone uncover nature's rhythm, reason, rhyme, so your birthday is our center: hinge of history and time. 3 Still your life and way of living, God-revealing, Spirit-blown, teaching, healing, sins forgiving, measure and inspire our own, loving earth's despised, rejected, till with them you hang in pain, broken, buried, resurrected, life laid down, our life to gain. 4 Who can tell, through earthly eons, all your loving power has done, changing hearts and shaping nations, seeking all, rejecting none? Speeches fail, but songs soar higher, tracing how, in every place, twice ten hundred years have numbered countless works of boundless grace! 5 Christ our hope, alive among us, take our love, our work, our prayer. We will trust and tell your purpose, braving evil and despair, in your name befriending, mending, making peace and setting free, showing, giving and acclaiming signs of joy and jubilee.

He Never Says "Good-bye"

Author: C. A. S.; James M. Gray, D. D. Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 13:5 First Line: In pain, on couch of weakness Lyrics: 1 In pain, on couch of weakness, A weary suff’rer lay, With face both pale and haggard, In twilight, soft and gray; A friend, departing, whispered That Jesus still was nigh, “Oh yes,” she slowly answered, “He never says ‘Good-bye.’” Chorus: He never says “good-bye,” He never says “good-bye.” Tho’ all the world may turn away, He never says “good-bye.” 2 He never leaves His people, Nor e’er forsakes His own; He knows their needs, however, To others all unknown; In sickness and in sorrow He listens to their cry; With loving arms around them He never says “good-bye.” [Chorus] 3 The joys of earth may vanish, Its music cease to cheer, Its brightness be o’erclouded, Its glory disappear; Our nearest friends may leave us, Our mother stay not by, But Jesus never fails us, He never says “good-bye.” [Chorus] 4 And tho’ we often grieve Him, Unmindful of His love, While straying from the pasture He watches still above; He notes the rugged pathway That brings the bitter sigh, And lifts us to His bosom, He never says “good-bye.” [Chorus] 5 A darkened vale is nearing, The hour has come to die; But still He walks beside us, And grace doth He supply; From death to life arisen, With Him are we on high! In heav’nly life and glory He never says “good-bye.” [Chorus] Used With Tune: [In pain, on couch of weakness]
