I waited for the Lord my God
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 66 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 31:33 Lyrics: 1 I waited for the Lord my God,
and patiently did bear;
at length to me he did incline
my voice and cry to hear.
2 He took me from a fearful pit,
and from the miry clay,
and on a rock he set my feet,
establishing my way.
3 He put a new song in my mouth,
our God to magnify:
many shall see it, and shall fear,
and on the Lord rely.
4 To do thy will I take delight,
O thou my God that art;
yea, that most holy law of thine
I have within my heart.
5 In thee let all be glad, and joy,
who seeking thee abide;
who thy salvation love, say still,
the Lord be magnified. Used With Tune: STRACATHRO Text Sources: Scottish Psalter, 1650

O Day of Peace
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944- Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 22 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 31:34 First Line: O day of peace that dimly shines Lyrics: 1 O day of peace that dimly shines
through all our hopes and prayers and dreams,
guide us to justice, truth, and love,
delivered from our selfish schemes.
May swords of hate fall from our hands,
our hearts from envy find release,
till by God's grace our warring world
shall see Christ's promised reign of peace.
2 Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb,
nor shall the fierce devour the small;
as beasts and cattle calmly graze,
a little child shall lead them all.
Then enemies shall learn to love,
all creatures find their true accord;
the hope of peace shall be fulfilled,
for all the earth shall know the Lord.

No Temple Now, No Gift of Price
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smtih, b. 1926 Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 31:31-34 Lyrics: 1 No temple now, no gift of price,
No priestly round of sacrifice,
Retain their ancient pow'rs.
As shadows fade before the sun
The day of sacrifice is done,
The day of grace is ours.
2 The dying Lord our ransom paid,
One final full self-off'ring made,
Complete in ev'ry part.
His finished sacrifice for sins
The covenant of grace begins,
The law within the heart.
3 In faith and confidence draw near,
Within the holiest appear,
With all who praise and pray;
Who share one family, one feast,
One great imperishable Priest,
One new and living way.
4 For Christ is ours! With purpose true
The pilgrim path of faith pursue,
The road that Jesus trod;
Until by His prevailing grace
We stand at last before His face,
Our Saviour and our God.

Dear God, Compassionate and Kind
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 with repeat Appears in 510 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 31:27-34 Lyrics: 1 Dear God, compassionate and kind,
forgive our foolish ways.
Re-clothe us in our rightful mind,
in purer lives thy service find,
in deeper reverence, praise,
in deeper reverence, praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard,
beside the Syrian sea,
the gracious calling of the Lord,
let us, like them, without a word,
rise up and follow thee,
rise up and follow thee!
3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee!
O calm of hills above,
where Jesus knelt to share with thee
the silence of eternity
interpreted by love,
interpreted by love!
4 Drop thy still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of thy peace,
the beauty of thy peace.
5 Breathe through the heats of our desire
thy coolness and thy balm;
let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still, small voice of calm,
O still, small voice of calm. Topics: Call and Vocation; Forgiveness; Lent (season); Peace of God Used With Tune: REPTON
