Through the Darkness of the Ages

Author: Hilary Jolly, 1945- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Through the darkness of the ages, through the sorrows of the days, strength of weary generations, lifting hearts in hope and praise, light in darkness, joy in sorrow, presence to allay all fears, Jesus, you have kept your promise, faithful through two thousand years. 2 Bounty of two thousand harvests, beauty of two thousand springs; He who framed the times and seasons has vouchsafed us greater things. Word of God who spoke creation speaks forgiveness, speaks to save, gathers still his ransomed people in the life he freely gave. 3 Countless flowers have bloomed and withered, countless noons are sealed in night, shattered thrones and fallen empires, realms and riches lost from sight. Christ, your kingdom still increases as the centuries unfold. Grain that fell to earth and perished has brought forth ten thousand-fold. 4 Master, we shall sing your praises, man of sorrows, God of power, for the measured march of seasons shall at last bring in the hour when, as lightning leaps the heavens, you return to lead us home. You have promised, "I am coming." Swiftly, our Lord Jesus, come. Scripture: Revelation 22:20 Used With Tune: ABBOT'S LEIGH

We Were Crowded In The Cabin

Author: James T. Fields, 1817-1881 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We were crowded in the cabin, Not a soul would dare to sleep, It was midnight on the waters, And storm was on the deep. 2 ’Tis a fearful thing in winter, To be shattered in the blast, And to hear the rattling trumpet, Thunder, "Cut away the mast." 3 So we shuddered there in silence, For the stoutest held his breath, While the hungry sea was roaring, And the breakers talked with death. 4 As thus we sat in darkness, Each one busy in his prayers, "We are lost!" the captain shouted, As he staggered down the stairs. 5 But his little daughter whispered, As she took his icy hand, "Isn’t God upon the ocean, Just the same as on the land?" 6 Then we kissed the little maiden, And we spoke in better cheer, And we anchored safe in harbor, Where the morn was shining clear.

Dios eterno, en tu presencia

Author: Juan B. Cabrera Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Dios eterno, en tu presencia nuestros siglos horas son; y un segundo, la existencia de cualquier generación. Mas aquél que a tu lado quiere ya volar con fe, en su curso prolongado lento siempre el tiempo ve. 2 Otro año ha fenecido que la vida ya acortó; y al descanso apetecido poco mas nos acercó. Gracias mil por tus mercedes hoy tu iglesia, Dios, te da; ya que todo tú lo puedes tu poder nos sostendrá. 3 Ven, proteges las familias visitando cada hogar. ¡Oh Señor!, si nos auxilias nada nos podrá faltar. Que te alabe el ser humano de este mundo por doquier; que tu santo nombre ensalce y te sirva haciendo el bien. Topics: Año Nuevo; Año Nuevo Scripture: Psalm 90 Used With Tune: CUERNAVACA

Out of Deep, Unordered Water

Author: Fred Kaan Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Out of deep unordered water Refrain First Line: There is water in the river Lyrics: 1 Out of deep, unordered water God created light and land, world of bird and beast and, later, in God's image, woman, man. There is water in the river bringing life to tree and plant. Let creation praise its giver: there is water in the font. 2 Water on the human forehead, birthmark of the love of God, is the sign of death and rising; through the seas there runs a road. There is water in the river bringing life to tree and plant. Let creation praise its giver: there is water in the font. 3 Standing round the font reminds us of the Hebrews' climb ashore. Life is hallowed by the knowledge God has been this way before. There is water in the river bringing life to tree and plant. Let creation praise its giver: there is water in the font.
