By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered

Author: Dietrich Bonhoeffer, 1906-45; Frederick Pratt Green, 1903- Hymnal: Together in Song #617 (1999) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Scripture: Lamentations 3:19-26 Lyrics: 1 By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered, and confidently waiting come what may, we know that God is with us night and morning and never fails to greet us each new day. 2 Yet is this heart by the old year tormented, still evil days bring burdens hard to bear. O give our frightened souls the sure salvation for which, O Lord, you taught us to prepare. 3 And when this cup you give is filled to brimming with bitter suffering, hard to understand, we take it thankfully and without trembling, out of so good, and so beloved, a hand. 4 Yet when again, in this same world, you give us the joy we had, the brightness of your sun, we shall remember all the days we lived through, and our whole life shall then be yours alone.

God the Soul's Only Portion

Hymnal: Poems on Subjects Chiefly Devotional, Vol. 1 #68 (1760) Scripture: Lamentations 3:24 First Line: In vain the world's alluring smile Lyrics: I. In vain, the world's alluring smile Would my unwary heart beguile: Deluding world! its brightest day, Dream of a moment, fleets away! II. Earth's highest pleasures, could they last, Would pall and languish on the taste; Such airy chaff was ne'er design'd To feed th'immortal, craving mind. III. To nobler bliss my soul aspires, Come, Lord, and fill these vast desires; Be thou my portion, here I rest, Since of my utmost wish possest. IV. O let thy sacred word impart Its sealing influence to my heart; With pow'r, and light, and love divine, Assure my soul that thou art mine. V. The blissful word, with joy replete, Shall bid my gloomy fears retreat, And heav'n-born hope, serenely bright, Shine chearful thro' this mortal night. VI. Then shall my joyful spirit rise On wings of faith above the skies; And when these transient scenes are o'er, And this vain world shall tempt no more: VII. O may I reach the blissful plains, Where thy unclouded glory reigns, And dwell forever near thy throne In joys to mortal thought unknown.

I take content what he has sent; his hand that sends me sadness will turn my tears to gladness. 3 What God ordains is always good: his loving thought attends me; no poison can be in the cup that my physician sends me. My God is true; each morning new I trust his grace unending, my life to him commending. 4 What God ordains is always good: he is my friend and father; he will not let me come to harm though many storms may gather. Now I may know both joy and woe; some day I shall see clearly that he has loved me dearly. 5 What God ordains is always good: this truth remains unshaken. Though sorrow, need, or death be mine, I shall not be forsaken. I fear no harm, for with his arm he shall embrace and shield me; so to my God I yield me.
