Each Life That Touches Ours for Good, 293 Karen Lynn Davidson 1. Each life that touches ours for good Reflects thine own great mercy, Lord; Thou sendest blessings from above Thru words and deeds of those who love. 2. What greater gift dost thou bestow, What greater goodness can we know Than Christ-like friends, whose gentle ways Strengthen our faith, enrich our days. 3. When such a friend from us departs, We hold forever in our hearts A sweet and hallowed memory, Bringing us nearer, Lord, to thee. 4. For worthy friends whose lives proclaim Devotion to the Savior's name, Who bless our days with peace and love, We praise thy goodness, Lord above.

Far, Far Away on Judea's Plains, 212 - John Menzies Macfarlane Far, far away on Judea's plains, Shepherds of old heard the joyous strains: Glory to God, Glory to God, Glory to God in the highest.

Peace on earth, good will to men; Peace on earth, good will to men. Lord, with the angels we too would rejoice; Help us to sing with the heart and voice: Glory to God, Glory to God, Glory to God in the highest. Peace on earth, good will to men; Peace on earth, good will to men. Hasten the time when, from ev'ry clime, Men shall unite in the strains sublime: Glory to God, Glory to God, Glory to God in the highest. Peace on earth, good will to men; Peace on earth, good will to men.

Thou art our rock, our fortress, and our might; Thou, Lord, our captain in the well fought fight; Thou, in the darkness drear, their one true Light. Alleluia, Alleluia! 4. And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long, Steals on the ear the distant triumph song, And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong. Alleluia, Alleluia! 5. From earth’s wide bounds, from ocean’s farthest coast, Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host, And singing to Father, Son and Holy Ghost: Alleluia, Alleluia! Verses from the Cyberhymnal: For all the saints, who from their labors rest, Who Thee by faith before the world confessed, Thy Name, O Jesus, be forever blessed. Alleluia, Alleluia! Thou wast their Rock, their Fortress and their Might; Thou, Lord, their Captain in the well fought fight; Thou, in the darkness drear, their one true Light. Alleluia, Alleluia! For the Apostles’ glorious company, Who bearing forth the Cross o’er land and sea, Shook all the mighty world, we sing to Thee: Alleluia, Alleluia! For the Evangelists, by whose blest word, Like fourfold streams, the garden of the Lord, Is fair and fruitful, be Thy Name adored. Alleluia, Alleluia! For Martyrs, who with rapture kindled eye, Saw the bright crown descending from the sky, And seeing, grasped it, Thee we glorify. Alleluia, Alleluia! O blest communion, fellowship divine! We feebly struggle, they in glory shine; All are one in Thee, for all are Thine. Alleluia, Alleluia! O may Thy soldiers, faithful, true and bold, Fight as the saints who nobly fought of old, And win with them the victor’s crown of gold. Alleluia, Alleluia! And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long, Steals on the ear the distant triumph song, And hearts are brave, again, and arms are strong. Alleluia, Alleluia! The golden evening brightens in the west; Soon, soon to faithful warriors comes their rest; Sweet is the calm of paradise the blessed. Alleluia, Alleluia! But lo! there breaks a yet more glorious day; The saints triumphant rise in bright array; The King of glory passes on His way. Alleluia, Alleluia! From earth’s wide bounds, from ocean’s farthest coast, Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host, And singing to Father, Son and Holy Ghost: Alleluia, Alleluia!

For the Strength of the Hills, 35 - Felicia D. Hemans; adapted by Edward L. Sloan For the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers' God; Thou has made thy children mighty By the touch of the mountain sod. Thou hast led thy chosen Israel To freedom's last abode; For the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers' God. At the hands of foul oppressors, We've borne and suffered long; Thou hast been our help in weakness, And thy pow'r hath made us strong. Amid ruthless foes outnumbered, In weariness we trod; For the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers' God. Thou hast led us here in safety Where the mountain bulwark stands As the guardian of the loved ones Thou has brought from many lands. For the rock and for the river, The valley's fertile sod; For the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers' God. We are watchers of a beacon Whose light must never die; We are guardians of an altar 'Midst the silence of the sky. Here the rocks yield founts of courage, Struck forth as by thy rod; For the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers' God.
From All That Dwell Below the Skies, 90 - Isaac Watts From all that dwell below the skies, Let the Creator's praise arise; Let the Redeemer's name be sung Through ev'ry land, by ev'ry tongue. In ev'ry land begin the song; To ev'ry land the strains belong. In cheerful sounds all voices raise And fill the world with loudest praise. Your lofty themes, ye mortals, bring; In songs of praise divinely sing. The great salvation loud proclaim, And shout for joy the Savior's name. Eternal are thy mercies, Lord; Eternal truth attends thy word. Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore, Till suns shall rise and set no more.
From Homes of Saints Glad Songs Arise, 297 - Vernald W. Johns 1. From homes of Saints glad songs arise, For there the Lord is King. There faith is learned and prayers ascend, The Spirit's peace to bring. For homes where scriptures old are loved, And living prophets, too, All thanks we give; the Father praise For guidance sure and true. 2. God's truths protect the hearth from wrong When error's ways allure, Lift minds from self to nobleness, Keep thought and action pure. Then sing, O Saints, in hymns of praise; Sing thanks to God on high, Whose counsels kept in homes on earth Bring heaven's glory nigh.
