Stay our wayward feet, O Lord!

All Thy holy will to trace
While we daily search Thy Word,
Wisdom true impart, O Lord!

now is given
overflowing,
gift of gifts beyond all knowing.

O lead us on the narrow way,
with wisest counsel guide us;
and give us steadfastness, that we
may follow you for ever free,
no matter who derides us.
Gently heal those
hearts now broken;
give some token
you are near us,
whom we trust to light and cheer us.
3 O mighty rock, O source of life,
let your good word in doubt and strife
be in us strongly burning,
that we be faithful unto death
and live in love and holy faith,
from you true wisdom learning.

on us shower;
by your power
Christ confessing,
we will cherish all your blessing. Topics: Comfort; Faith; Gifts of the Holy Spirit; Guidance; Holy Spirit; Perseverance Tune Title: WIR SCHÖN LEUCHTET

Come, Labor On
Author: Jane Laurie Borthwick Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #75 (1985) Meter: 4.10.10.10.4 Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:7 Lyrics: 1 Come, labor on.
Who dares stand idle on the harvest plain
while all around us waves the golden grain?
And to each servant does the Master say,
"Go work today."
2 Come, labor on.
Claim the high calling angels cannot share--
to young and old the gospel gladness bear;
Redeem the time; its hours too swiftly fly.
The night draws nigh.
3 Come, labor on.
Away with gloomy doubts and faithless fear!
No arm so weak but may do service here:
by feeblest agents may our God fulfill
his righteous will.
4 Come, labor on.
No time for rest, till glows the western sky,
till the long shadows o'er our pathway lie
and a glad sound comes with the setting sun,
"Well done, well done!"
