Am I a soldier of the cross

Hymnal: ELH1880 #382 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross? A foll'wer of the Lamb? And shall I fear to own His cause, Or blush to speak His name? 2 Must I be carried to the skies On flow'ry beds of ease? While others fought to win the prize, And sailed through bloody seas? 3 Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace, To help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight if I would reign; Increase my courage, Lord! I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by Thy word. 5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war Shall conquer though they die; They see the triumph from afar, With faith's discerning eye. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, And all thine armies shine, In robes of vict'ry through the skies, The glory shall be Thine.

The Spirit's fruits are peace and love

Hymnal: ELH1880 #383 (1880) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The Spirit's fruits are peace and love, And purity from heaven above; Grace, meekness, gentleness, and joy, With goodness, new-born lives employ. 2 The Spirit makes life's pathway plain, Imparts the grace that will sustain; And grace its work in those who show, Who truly to the Spirit sow. 3 They that are Christ's have crucified Their flesh with all its lusts and pride, And seek in truth what they profess, And walk the paths of holiness. 4 Lord, fill with grace our wayward heart, Nor let Thy Spirit from us part; O save us from still hidden sin, And form our nature pure within: 5 That watchful, prayerful, sober, strong, We grow the more as strifes prolong, And of the Spirit reap at last Eternal life, when strife is past.

Go to dark Gethsemane

Hymnal: ELH1880 #384 (1880) Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, Ye that feel the tempter's power, Your Redeemer's conflict see, Watch with Him one bitter hour; Turn not from His griefs away, Learn of Jesus Christ to pray. 2 Follow to the judgment hall, View the Lord of life arraigned; O the wormwood and the gall! O the pangs His soul sustained! Shun not suff'ring, shame, or loss, Learn of Him to bear the cross. 3 Calv'ry's mournful mountain climb, There, adoring at His feet, Mark the miracle of time, God's own sacrifice complete: "It is finished!" hear Him cry: Learn of Jesus Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb, Where they laid His breathless clay; All is solitude and gloom; Who hath taken Him away? Christ is ris'n! he meets our eyes! Savior, teach us so to rise. Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Christian Resolve and Holiness Languages: English

Father of all our mercies, Thou

Hymnal: ELH1880 #385 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Father of all our mercies, Thou In whom we move and live, Hear us in heav'n, Thy dwelling, now, And answer and forgive. 2 When harassed by ten thousand foes, Our helplessness we feel, O give the weary soul repose, The wounded spirit heal. 3 When dire temptations gather round, And threaten or allure, By storm or calm, in Thee be found A refuge strong and sure. 4 From day to day, O may we grow In faith, in hope, and love, And walk in holiness below To holiness above.

The man is ever blessed

Hymnal: ELH1880 #386 (1880) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 That man is ever blest Who shuns the sinners ways; Amongst their councils never stands, Nor takes a scorner's place: 2 But makes the law of God Hid study and delight, Amidst the labors of the day And watches of the night; 3 He like a tree shall thrive, With waters near the root: Fresh as the leaf His name shall live, His works are heavenly fruit. 4 Not so th' ungodly race: They no such blessings find; Their hopes shall flee like empty chaff Before the driving wind. 5 How will they bear to stand Before that judgment-seat, Where all the saints at Christ's right hand In full assembly meet? 6 He knows and He approves The way the righteous go: But sinners and their works shall meet A dreadful overthrow.

Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

Hymnal: ELH1880 #387 (1880) Lyrics: 1 Father, Son and Holy Ghost, One in Three, and Three in One, As by the celestial host, Let Thy will on earth be done: Praise by all to Thee be giv'n, Gracious Lord of earth and heav'n. 2 That so poor a worm as I May to Thy great glory live, All my actions sanctify, All my words and thoughts receive; Claim me, for Thy service claim All I have, and all I am. 3 Take my soul and body's powers! Take my mem'ry, mind, and will, All my goods and all my hours, All I know and all I feel: All I think, or speak, or do; Take my heart-- but make it new! 4 Now, O God, Thine own I am; Now I give Thee back Thine own; Freedom, friends, and health, and fame, Consecrate to Thee alone; Thine I live, thrice happy I! Happier still if Thine I die. Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Christian Resolve and Holiness Languages: English

Blest Jesus, while Thy grace I sing

Hymnal: ELH1880 #388 (1880) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Blest Jesus, while Thy grace I sing, What grateful tribute shall I bring, That earth and heaven and all may see My love to Him who died for me? 2 That off'ring, Lord, Thy word hath taught, Nor be Thy new command forgot, That, if their Master's death can move, Thy servants should each other love.

When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay

Hymnal: ELH1880 #389 (1880) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay, What were His works from day to day, But miracles of power and grace, Which spread salvation through our race? 2 Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view Thy pattern, and Thy steps pursue: Let alms bestowed, let kindness done, Be witnessed by each rolling sun. 3 That man may last, but never lives, Who much receives, but nothing gives: Whom none can love, whom none can thank, Creation's blot, creation's blank. 4 But he who marks from day to day In gen'rous acts his radiant way, The same path treads the Savior trod, The path to glory and to God.

Jesus, my Lord, how rich Thy grace!

Hymnal: ELH1880 #390 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my Lord, how rich Thy grace! Thy bounties how complete! How shall I count the matchless sum, How pay the mighty debt? 2 High on a throne of radiant light Dost Thou exalted shine: What can my poverty bestow, When all the worlds are Thine? 3 But Thou hast brethren here below, The partners of Thy grace, And wilt confess their humble names Before Thy Father’s face. 4 In them Thou may'st be clothed and fed, And visited and cheered; And in their accents of distress My Savior’s voice is heard. 5 Thy face, with rev'rence and with love, We in Thy poor would see; O rather let me beg my bread, Than keep it back from Thee.

May we Thy precepts, Lord, fulfill

Hymnal: ELH1880 #391 (1880) Lyrics: 1 May we Thy precepts, Lord, fulfill, And do on earth our Father's will, As angels do above: Still walk in Christ, the living Way, With all Thy children, and obey The law of Christian love. 2 So may we join Thy name to bless, Thy grace adore, Thy power confess, From sin and strife to flee. One is our calling, one our name, The end of all our hopes the same, A crown of life with Thee. 3 Spirit of life, of love and peace, Unite our hearts, our joy increase. Thy gracious help supply: To each of us the blessing give, In Christian fellowship to live, In joyful hope to die.
