O refresh us, O refresh us, Traveling through this wilderness. 2 Thanks we give and adoration For Thy gospel’s joyful sound; May the fruits of Thy salvation In our hearts and lives abound. Ever faithful, Ever faithful To the truth may we be found. 3 So that when Thy love shall call us, Savior, from the world away, Let no fear of death appall us, Glad Thy summons to obey.

Author: Gracia Grindal Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 To a maid engaged to Joseph, The angel Gabriel came. “Fear not,” the angel told her, “I come to bring good news, Good news I come to tell you, Good news, I say, good news. 2 “For you are highly favored By God, the Lord of all, Who even now is with you. You are on earth most blest, You are most blest, most blessèd, God chose you, you are blest!” 3 But Mary was most troubled To hear the angel’s word. What was the angel saying? It troubled her to hear, To hear the angel’s message, It troubled her to hear. 4 “Fear not, for God is with you, And you shall bear a child. His name shall be called Jesus, God’s offspring from on high. And He shall reign forever, Forever reign on high.” 5 “How shall this be?” said Mary, “I am not yet a wife.” The angel answered quickly, “The power of the Most High Will come upon you shortly; Your child will be God’s child.” 6 As Mary heard the angel, She wondered at his words. “Behold, I am your handmaid,” She said unto her God. “So be it; I am ready According to your Word.” Topics: Annunciation Scripture: Luke 1:26-28 Used With Tune: ANNUNCIATION

Out of the Depths

Author: Martin Luther; Richard Massie Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Out of the depths to Thee I raise Lyrics: 1 Out of the depths to Thee I raise The voice of lamentation; Lord, turn a gracious ear to me, And hear my supplication. If Thou shouldst count our every sin, Each evil deed or thought within, O who could stand before Thee? 2 To wash away the crimson stain Grace, grace alone prevaileth. Our works, alas! are all in vain; In much the best life faileth. For none can glory in Thy sight, All must alike confess Thy might And live alone by mercy. 3 Therefore my trust is in the Lord, And not in mine own merit. On God my soul shall rest; God's work Upholds my fainting spirit. God's promised mercy is my fort, My comfort, and my strong support; I wait for it with patience. 4 What though I wait the live-long night, And till the dawn appeareth, My heart still trusteth in God's might; It doubteth not nor feareth: So let the Israelites in heart, Born of the Spirit, do their part, And wait till God appeareth.
