God Himself Is with Us
Author: Gerhardt Tersteegen Meter: 6.6.8.6.6.8.6.6.6 Appears in 140 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 47:7 Lyrics: 1 God himself is with us:
let us now adore him,
and with awe appear before him.
God is in his temple;
all within keep silence,
and before him bow with reverence.
Him alone do we own
as our God and Savior;
praise his name forever.
2 God himself is with us:
hear the harps resounding!
See the crowds the throne surrounding!
"Holy, holy, holy,"
hear the hymn ascending,
angels, saints, their voices blending!
Bow your ear to us here;
hear, O Christ, the praises
that your church now raises.
3 Fount of every blessing,
purify my spirit,
trusting only in your merit.
Like the holy angels
who behold your glory,
may I ceaselessly adore you,
and in all, great and small,
seek to do most nearly
what you love so dearly.

O God of Every Nation
Author: William W. Reid Jr. Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 47 First Line: O God of every nation Lyrics: 1 O God of every nation,
of every race and land,
redeem the whole creation
with your almighty hand.
Where hate and fear divide us
and bitter threats are hurled,
in love and mercy guide us,
and heal our strife torn world.
2 From search for wealth and power
and scorn of truth and right,
from trust in bombs that shower
destruction through the night,
from pride of race and nation
and blindness to your way,
deliver every nation,
eternal God, we pray!
3 Lord, strengthen those who labor
that all may find release
from fear of rattling saber,
from dread of war's increase.
When hope and courage falter,
Lord, let your voice be heard;
with faith that none can alter,
your servants undergird.
4 Keep bright in us the vision
of days when war shall cease,
when hatred and division
give way to love and peace,
till dawns the morning glorious
when truth and justice reign,
and Christ shall rule victorious
o'er all the world's domain. Topics: Culture, Community & Nation; Reconciliation to Each Other; Social Justice; War and Revolution Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN

Thro'out its regions vast
With shouts triumphant blendeth
The trumpet's thrilling blast:
Sing praise to Christ the Lord;
Sing praise with exultation,
King of each heathen nation,
The God of hosts adored!
2 With joy is heav'n resounding
Christ's glad return to see;
Behold the saints surrounding
The Lord who set them free.
Bright myriads, thronging, come;
The cherub band rejoices,
And loud seraphic voices
All welcome Jesus home.
3 From cross to throne ascending,
We follow Christ on high
And know the pathway wending
To mansions in the sky.
Our Lord is gone before;
Yet here He will not leave us,
But soon in heav'n receive us
And open wide the door.
4 Our place He is preparing:
To heav'n we, too, shall rise,
With Him His glory sharing,
Be where our Treasure lies:
Bestir thyself, my soul!
Where Jesus Christ has entered,
There let thy hope be centered,
Press onward toward the goal.
5 Let all our thoughts be winging
To where Thou didst ascend,
And let our hearts be singing:
"We seek Thee, Christ, our Friend,
Thee, God's exalted Son,
Our life, and Way to heaven,
To whom all power is given,
Our Joy and Hope and Crown."
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Ascension Used With Tune: AUS MEINES HERZENS GRUNDE
