Almighty God, Thy Word Is Cast

Author: John Cawood Hymnal: HOoS1937 #81 (1937) Lyrics: 1 Almighty God, Thy Word is cast Like seed upon the ground; Now let the dew of heaven descend, And righteous fruits abound. 2 Let not the foe of Christ and man This holy seed remove; But give it root in every heart, To bring forth fruits of love. 3 Let not the world's deceitful cares The rising plant destroy; But let it yield a hundredfold The fruits of peace and joy. 4 Oft as the precious seed is sown, Thy quickening grace bestow, That all whose souls the truth receive Its saving power may know. Amen.

Thou Goest to Jerusalem

Author: Anna B. D. Hoppe Hymnal: HOoS1937 #83 (1937) Lyrics: 1 Thou goest to Jerusalem, O Son of God, to suffer, And for a world of sinful men Thy spotless life to offer; Thou bearest anguish, pain, and loss, The mockers' score, the scourge, the cross, To win for us salvation. 2 Before Thee lies Gethsemane, The scene of bitter anguish; Thine eyes behold the Calvary Where Thou in pain must languish; The bleeding wounds, the bitter gall, The crown of thorns, the judgment hall, Thy burdened soul's affliction. 3 Thou art the Way, the Truth, the Life; We pray Thee, Master, lead us Away from earth's vain, restless strife; With heavenly manna feed us. Thou who hast died to save the lost, Help us, dear Lord, to weigh the cost, And follow Thee, our Saviour. Amen.

Thy rod and staff shall keep us safe, And guide our steps forever; Nor shades of death, nor hell beneath, Our souls from Thee shall sever. 3 In all the strife of mortal life Our feet shall stand securely; Temptation's hour shall lose its power, For Thou shalt guard us surely. O God, renew, with heavenly dew, Our body, soul, and spirit, Until we stand at Thy right hand, Through Jesus' saving merit. Amen.

Uphold us in the evil hour, And from his might release us! His kingdom is a stronghold still, And legions hearken to his will. 4 But O, before Thy Word, dear Lord, The prince of darkness trembles! He quails before that two-edged Sword When Thine armed host assembles! O mighty Word, how great thy power! Thou art our refuge, shield, and tower. Amen.
