To God Compose a Song of Joy
By Gracious Powers
Author: Dietrich Bonhoeffer; Fred Pratt Green Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 18 hymnals First Line: By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered 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 its old foe 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. Scripture: Psalm 13:5-6 Used With Tune: INTERCESSOR

Song of Zechariah
Author: Michael A. Perry Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 18 hymnals First Line: Blest be the God of Israel Lyrics: 1 Blest by the God of Israel,
Who comes to set us free;
Who visits and redeems us,
Who grants us liberty.
The prophets spoke of mercy,
Of freedom and release;
God shall fulfull that promise
And bring the people peace.
2 God from the house of David
A child of grace has given;
A Savior comes among us
To raise us up to heaven.
Before Him goes the herald,
Forerunner in the way,
The prophet of salvation,
The harbinger of day.
3 On those who sit in darkness
The sun begins to rise,
The dawning of forgiveness
Upon the sinner's eyes.
God guides the feet of pilgrims
Along the paths of peace.
O bless our God and Savior
With songs that never cease! Scripture: Luke 1:68-79 Used With Tune: MERLE'S TUNE

Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: As a deer longs for flowing streams Refrain First Line: My soul is thirsting for the Lord Lyrics: Refrain:
My soul is thirsting for the Lord:
when shall I see God face to face?
1 As a deer longs for flowing streams,
so my soul longs for you, O God
2 My soul thirsts for God,
for the living God. (repeat phrases c and d)
When shall I come and behold
the face of God? (Refrain)
3 My tears have been my food
[both] day and night,
while people say to me continually,
"Where is your God?" (Refrain)
4 These things I remember,
as I pour out my soul:
how I went with the throng,
nd led them in procession
to the house of God, (repeat phrases c and d)
with glad shouts and songs of thanksgiving,
a multitude keeping festival. (Refrain)
5 Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you disquieted within?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise Him, my help
6 and my God. (Refrain)
My soul is cast down within me;
therefore I remember You
from the land of Jordan and of Hermon,
[and] from Mount Mizar.
7 Deep calls to deep
at the thunder of Your cataracts;
all Your waves and Your billows
have gone over me. (Refrain)
8 By day the Lord commands His steadfast love,
and at night His song is with me, (omit phrase c)
a prayer to the God of my life. (Refrain)
9 I say to God, my rock,
"Why have You forgotten me?
Why must I walk about mournfully
because the enemy oppresses me?" (Refrain)
10 As with a deadly wound in my body,
my adversaries taunt me,
while they say to me continually,
"Where is your God?" (Refrain)
11 Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise Him,
my help and my God. (Refrain)

Psalm 42
When God Delivered Israel
Author: Michael A. Saward Meter: 7.6.7.7.6.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When God delivered Israel
From bondage long ago,
They thought that they were dreaming,
but soon they turned to laughing
And sang the song of joy,
And sang the song of joy.
2 The godless nations round them
Could not deny that power;
They cried, "O see this marvel!"
"God's work," replied the people,
And so they sang for joy,
And so they sang for joy.
3 O God, restore our nation;
Come, irrigate dry souls,
That those who sow in sadness
May reap their sheaves with gladness
And sing the song of joy,
And sing the song of joy. Topics: God Deliverance Scripture: Psalm 126 Used With Tune: SHEAVES
