Pagina 241 - Old friends, old scenes, will lovelier be, As more of Heaven in each we see ; Some softening gleam of love and prayer Shall dawn on every cross and care. The trivial round, the common task, Will furnish all we ought to ask, Room to deny ourselves, a road To bring us daily nearer God.
Pagina 254 - Holy, holy, holy ! though the darkness hide thee, Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see, Only thou art holy ; there is none beside thee Perfect in power, in love, and purity. 4 Holy, holy, holy ! Lord God Almighty...
Pagina 238 - Let goodness and mercy, my bountiful God, Still follow my steps till I meet Thee above ; I seek, by the path which my forefathers trod, Through the land of their sojourn, Thy kingdom of love.
Pagina 246 - Through the harsh noises of our day A low, sweet prelude finds its way; Through clouds of doubt, and creeds of fear, A light is breaking, calm and clear. That song of Love, now low and far, Erelong shall swell from star to star! That light, the breaking day, which tips The golden-spired Apocalypse!
Pagina 251 - To scorn the senses' sway, While still to thee I tend ; In all I do, be thou the way, In all, be thou the end.
Pagina 239 - Glory in the highest, glory ! Glory be to God most high ! 3 Peace on earth, good will from heaven, Reaching far as man is found ; Souls redeemed and sins forgiven, Loud our golden harps shall sound. 4 Christ is born, the great Anointed, Heaven and earth his praises sing; O ! receive, whom God appointed, For your Prophet, Priest, and King. 5 Hasten, mortals, to adore Him, Learn his name and taste his joy; Till in heaven ye sing before Him, Glory be to God most high...
Pagina 253 - Thee. 2 With Thee when dawn comes in And calls me back to care, Each day returning to begin With Thee, my God, in prayer.
Pagina 245 - It singeth low in every heart, We hear it each and all — A song of those who answer not, However we may call ; They throng the silence of the breast, We see them as of yore — The kind, the brave, the true, the sweet Who walk with us no more.
Pagina 214 - GOD bless our native land ! Firm may she ever stand, Through storm and night; When the wild tempests rave, Ruler of wind and wave, Do Thou our country save By Thy great might. 2...
Pagina 245 - More homelike seems the vast Unknown, Since they have entered there ; To follow them were not so hard, Wherever they may fare ; They cannot be where God is not, On any sea or shore ; Whate'er betides, Thy love abides, Our God for evermore.
