Lyrics to Hymns:
LIFT EVERY VOICE AND SING
Lift every voice and sing, till earth and heaven ring,
ring with the harmonies of liberty;
let our rejoicing rise high as the listening skies,
let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us;
sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us;
facing the rising sun of our new day begun,
let us march on till victory is won.
God of our weary years, God of our silent tears,
thou who hast brought us thus far on the way;
thou who hast by thy might led us into the light,
keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met thee;
lest our hearts drunk with the wine of the world, we forget thee;
shadowed beneath thy hand, may we forever stand,
true to our God, true to our native land.
CHANNELS ONLY
How I praise Thee, precious Savior,
that Thy love laid hold of me;
Thou hast saved and cleansed and filled me
that I might Thy channel be.
Emptied that Thou shouldest fill me,
a clean vessel in Thy hand,
with no power but as Thou givest
graciously with each command.
Channels only, blessed Master,
but with all Thy wondrous power
flowing through us, Thou canst use us,
every day and every hour.
Witnessing Thy power to save me,
setting free from self and sin,
Thou who boughtest to possess me,
in Thy fullness, Lord, come in!
Channels only, blessed Master,
but with all Thy wondrous power
flowing through us, Thou canst use us,
every day and every hour.
Channels only, blessed Master,
but with all Thy wondrous power
flowing through us, Thou canst use us,
every day and every hour.
HYMN OF PROMISE
In the bulb there is a flower;
in the seed, an apple tree;
in cocoons, a hidden promise:
butterflies will soon be free!
In the cold and snow of winter
there’s a spring that waits to be,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
There’s a song in every silence,
seeking word and melody;
there’s a dawn in every darkness,
bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future;
what it holds, a mystery,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
In our end is our beginning;
in our time, infinity;
in our doubt there is believing;
in our life, eternity.
In our death, a resurrection;
at the last, a victory,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
