God of the past, accept our praise
O God, thou Potentate of all
Author: Anna R. B. Lindsay Hymnal: The Wesleyan Methodist Hymnal #715 (1910) Languages: English Tune Title: CENTENNIAL
O God, thou Potentate of all
O God, Thou Potentate Of All
Author: Anna R. B. Lindsay Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #14321 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O God, Thou Potentate of all,
Upon Thy fiat we would call,
And pray that as the die is cast,
Thy grace may guide us to the last!
Grant us a race of stalwart men
To lead in public life again,
Prophetic, noble, grand in dower—
Such, Lord, exalt to thrones of power.
2 Put far from each the selfish aim,
The lure of spoils, the zest of fame;
With single heart and honest hand
May they bear rule throughout the land;
The shows of state, the sport of kings,
May they account but paltry things,
And dedicate their hearts and days
To Thy vast sovereignty and praise.
3 In all their councils and their laws,
Unmoved by scorn or vain applause,
May they seek daily to fulfill
The purpose of Thy perfect will;
And thus, as changing cycles run,
And eras pass from sun to sun,
May righteousness gird all our frame,
And generations bless Thy name! Languages: English Tune Title: CENTENNIAL

God Of The Past, Accept Our Praise
Author: Ellen H. Butler Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #14332 Lyrics: 1 God of the past, accept our praise
For treasures of remembered days,
Wherein this grateful church can trace
The light and comfort of Thy grace:
For saints whose words Thy flock have fed,
For warriors who Thy host have led
To battle with the Spirit’s sword—
For these accept our praise, O Lord.
2 God of the present, Thee alone
Our Savior and our King we own;
Grant us with open eyes to see
How rich in love Thy church may be;
Touch heart and tongue with heav’nly fire;
To holier service now inspire;
O consecrate anew, we pray,
And make us one in Thee today.
3 God of the future, in whose sight,
The ages are as day and night,
Make Thou our church a light indeed
For coming stress of doubt or need;
Feed with Thy quick’ning oil the flame,
That we may find a place and a name
In the celestial temple, when
Thou rulest in the hearts of men.
4 God of eternal life, whose pow’r
Upholds us in our little hour,
Before Thee centuries come and go,
As fleet, as frail as winter snow;
Draw us this day from earth aside,
To learn the things that shall abide;
Then lead us back to toil, that we
May win earth’s kingdoms, Lord, for Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: CENTENNIAL
