Star of peace to wanderers weary!
Author: Miss Jane C. Simpson, 1811-1886 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #649 (1917) Topics: Seasons and Occasions Lyrics: 1 Star of peace to wanderers weary!
Bright the beams that smile on me!
Cheer the pilot's vision dreary,
Far, far at sea.
2 Star of hope! gleam on the billow;
Bless the soul that sighs for Thee,
Bless the sailor's lonely pillow,
Far, far at sea.
3 Star of faith! when winds are mocking
All his toil, he flies to Thee;
Save him on the billow rocking,
Far, far at sea.
4 Star divine! oh! safely guide him;
Bring the wanderer home to Thee;
Sore temptations long have tried him
Far, far at sea. Languages: English Tune Title: LIGHT OF LIFE
Star of peace to wanderers weary!
From homes of quiet peace
Author: W. H. Draper, 1855- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #650 (1917) Topics: Seasons and Occasions Lyrics: 1 From homes of quiet peace
We lift up hands of prayer,
And those Thou gavest us to love
Commend, Lord, to Thy care.
2 In perils of the sea
Watch o'er them day by day;
In perils of the battlefield
Be Thou their strength and stay.
3 Be with them when they fight,
Be with them if they fall;
For life and death alike are Thine,
And Thou art all in all.
4 Let Thine Almighty Arm
Be their defence and shield;
And whosesoever cause is Thine
To them the Victory yield. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BEUNO
From homes of quiet peace
Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
Author: Dr. Edward H. Plumptre, 1821-1891 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #651 (1917) Topics: Seasons and Occasions Lyrics: 1 Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old,
Was strong to heal and save;
It triumphed o'er disease and death,
O'er darkness and the grave.
To Thee they went--the blind, the dumb,
The palsied, and the lame,
The leper with his tainted life,
The sick with fevered frame:
2 And lo! Thy touch brought life and health,
Gave speech, and strength, and sight;
And youth renewed and frenzy calmed
Owned Thee, the Lord of light.
And now, O Lord, be near to bless,
Almighty as of yore,
In crowded street, by restless couch,
As by Gennesaret's shore.
3 Though love and might no longer heal
By touch, or word, or look;
Though they who do Thy work must read
Thy laws in Nature's book:
Yet come to heal the sick man's soul,
Come, cleanse the leprous taint;
Give joy and peace where all is strife,
And strength where all is faint.
4 Be Thou our great Deliverer still,
Thou Lord of life and death;
Restore and quicken, soothe and bless,
With Thine almighty breath;
To hands that work and eyes that see
Give wisdom's heavenly lore,
That whole and sick, and weak and strong,
May praise Thee evermore.
Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MATTHEW
Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
Thou to whom the sick and dying
Author: Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #652 (1917) Topics: Seasons and Occasions Lyrics: 1 Thou to whom the sick and dying
Ever came, nor came in vain,
Still with healing words replying
To the wearied cry of pain,
Hear us, Jesu, as we meet,
Suppliants at Thy mercy-seat.
2 Every care, and every sorrow,
Be it great, or be it small,
Yesterday, to-day, to-morrow,
When, where'er it may befall,
Lay we humbly at Thy feet,
Suppliants at Thy mercy-seat.
3 Still the weary, sick, and dying
Need a brother's, sister's care;
On Thy higher help relying,
May we now their burden share,
Bringing all our offerings meet,
Suppliants at Thy mercy-seat.
4 May each child of Thine be willing,
Willing both in hand and heart,
All the law of love fulfilling,
Ever comfort to impart,
Ever bringing offerings meet,
Suppliant to Thy mercy-seat.
5 So may sickness, sin, and sadness
To Thy healing power yield,
Till the sick and sad, in gladness,
Rescued, ransomed, cleansed, healed,
One in Thee together meet,
Pardoned at Thy judgment-seat. Languages: English Tune Title: REQUIEM
Thou to whom the sick and dying
Come, let us live with our children
Author: Cornelia Shipman Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #653 (1917) Topics: Seasons and Occasions Lyrics: 1 Come, let us live with our children
Lives that are noble and true,
Letting the love of the Father
Shine forth in all that we do;
Sent in His infinite wisdom,
That we may teach them aright;
Ours for to-day, we must guide them
Unto the heavenly light.
2 Come, let us live with our children,
Tenderly watchful and near
To these young lives now unfolding
Ready with counsel and cheer,
To give them strength for life's battles,
Helping if evil betides;
Building so well, that they shall be
Temples wherein He resides. Languages: English Tune Title: WYLES
Come, let us live with our children
Through the night of doubt and sorrow
Author: S. Baring-Gould, 1834- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #654a (1917) Topics: Seasons and Occasions Lyrics: 1 Through the night of doubt and sorrow
Onward goes the pilgrim band,
Singing songs of expectation,
Marching to the Promised Land.
Clear before us through the darkness
Gleams and burns the guiding Light;
Brother clasps the hand of brother,
Stepping fearless through the night.
2 One the light of God's own presence
O'er His ransomed people shed,
Chasing far the gloom and terror,
Brightening all the path we tread:
One the object of our journey,
One the faith which never tires,
One the earnest looking forward,
One the hope our God inspires:
3 On the strain that lips of thousands
Lift as from the heart of one;
One the conflict, one the peril,
One the march in God begun:
One the gladness of rejoicing
On the far eternal shore,
Where the One Almighty Father
Reigns in love for evermore.
4 Onward, therefore, pilgrim brothers,
Onward with the Cross our aid;
Bear its shame, and fight its battle,
Till we rest beneath its shade.
Soon shall come the great awaking,
Soon the rending of the tomb;
Then the scattering of all shadows,
And the end of toil and gloom. Languages: English Tune Title: KAWARTHA

Through the night of doubt and sorrow
O'er the trackless ocean guided
Author: W. H. Adams, 1864- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #655 (1917) Topics: Seasons and Occasions Lyrics: 1 O'er the trackless ocean guided
By Thy hand our fathers came;
They, O Lord, in Thee confided,
Loved Thy day, revered Thy name;
Nor would we, their faith despising,
False to their devotion be,
But, on wings of prayer arising,
Lift our contrite hearts to Thee.
2 In the new land, wild and lonely,
Rude the homes which they upraised,
There they sought unto Thee only,
There Thy love and mercy praised;
In our fairer habitations,
May their zeal in us increase,
While Thy gracious consolations
Prove our everlasting peace.
3 Where, in wilderness extending,
Every creature had his lair,
Now behold us humbly bending
In this holy place of prayer;
Let the world transformed around us
Witness be of change within
Joy divine that God hath found us,
Healed the deadly wounds of sin.
4 Destined for their fathers' places,
Age on age until the end,
Keep, O keep, our children's faces
Turned to Thee, our changeless Friend;
And may all who boon of heaven
Now or evermore shall crave,
Know on earth Thy blessing given,
Glory find beyond the grave.

O'er the trackless ocean guided
Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing
Author: J. Fawcett, 1739-1817 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #656 (1917) Topics: Seasons and Occasions Lyrics: 1 Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing,
Fill our hearts with joy and peace;
Let us each, Thy love possessing,
Triumph in redeeming grace;
O refresh us,
Travelling through this wilderness!
2 Thanks we give, and adoration,
For Thy gospel's joyful sound;
May the fruits of Thy salvation
In our hearts and lives abound;
May Thy presence
With us evermore be found.
3 So, whene'er the signal's given
Us from earth to call away,
Borne on angels' wings to heaven,
Glad the summons to obey,
May we ever
Reign with Christ in endless day. Languages: English Tune Title: DISMISSAL
Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing
