Lord God of Hosts, Whose Purpose, Never Swerving
Author: Shepherd Knapp Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 43 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 4:3-6 Lyrics: 1 Lord God of Hosts, whose purpose, never swerving,
Leads toward the day of Jesus Christ Thy Son,
Grant us to march among Thy faithful legions,
Armed with Thy courage, till the world is won.
2 Strong Son of God, whose work was His that sent Thee,
One with the Father, thought and deed and word,
One make us all, true comrades in Thy service,
And make us one in Thee with God the Lord.
3 O Prince of Peace, Thou bringer of good tidings,
Teach us to speak Thy word of hope and cheer—
Rest for the soul, and strength for all man's striving,
Light for the path of life, and God brought near.
4 Lord God, whose grace has called us to Thy service,
How good Thy thoughts toward us, how great their sum!
We work with Thee, we go where Thou wilt lead us,
Until in all the earth Thy Kingdom come.

Sing, My Tongue, the Glorious Battle
Author: Venantius Honorius Fortunatus; John Mason Neale Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 41 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 4:8 Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle;
tell the triumph far and wide;
tell aloud the wondrous story
of the cross, the Crucified;
tell how Christ, the world's redeemer,
vanquished death the day he died.
2 God in mercy saw us fallen,
sunk in shame and misery,
felled to death in Eden's garden,
where in pride we claimed the tree;
then another tree was chosen,
which the world from death would free.
3 Tell how, when at length the fullness
of the appointed time was come,
Christ, the Word, was born of woman,
left for us the heavenly home,
blazed the path of true obedience,
shone as light amidst the gloom.
4 Thirty years among us dwelling,
Jesus went from Nazareth,
destined, dedicated, willing,
did his work and met his death;
like a lamb he humbly yielded
on the cross his dying breath.
5 Faithful cross, true sign of triumph,
be for all the noblest tree;
none in foliage, none in blossom,
none in fruit your equal be;
symbol of the world's redemption,
for your burden makes us free.

How sweet thy gracious name!

On which thy mercy came.

Stood waiting on the wing,
Charm'd with the honour to obey
Their great eternal King.
3 For us mean, wretched, sinful men,
Thou laid'st that glory by;
First in our mortal flesh to serve,
Then in that flesh to die.
4 Bought with thy service and thy blood,
We doubly, Lord, are thine;
To thee our lives we would devote,
To thee our death resign.
