Arm these Thy soldiers, mighty Lord

Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Arm these Thy soldiers, mighty Lord, With shield of faith and Spirit's sword; Forth to the battle may they go, And boldly fight against the foe, With banner of the Cross unfurl'd, And by it overcome the world; And so at last receive from Thee The palm and crown of victory. 2 Come, ever-blessèd Spirit, come, And make Thy servant's hearts Thy home; May each a living temple be, Hallow'd for ever, Lord, to Thee, Enrich that temple's holy shrine With seven-fold gifts of grace divine; With wisdom, light, and knowledge bless, Strength, counsel, fear, and godliness.

As pants the hart for cooling streams

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 323 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As pants the hart for cooling streams, When heated in the chase; So longs my soul, O God, for Thee, And Thy refreshing grace. 2 For Thee, my God, the living God, My thirsty soul doth pine; O when shall I behold Thy face, Thou Majesty divine? 3 Why restless, why cast down, my soul? Trust God; Who will employ His aid for thee, and change these sighs To thankful hymns of joy. 4 God of my strength, how long shall I, Like one forgotten, mourn, Forlorn, forsaken, and exposed To my oppressor's scorn? 5 My heart is pierced, as with a sword, While thus my foes upbraid: "Vain boaster, where is now thy God? And where His promised aid?" 6 Why restless, why cast down, my soul? Hope still' and thou shalt sing The praise of Him Who is thy God, Thy health's eternal spring.

Thy God, the God of mercy, still shall prove; Within His courts thy thanks shall yet be paid: Unquestion'd be His faithfulness and love. Topics: The Lord's Day and Public Worship

As when the weary traveller gains

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 205 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As, when the weary traveller gains The height of some commanding hill, His heart revives, if o'er the plains He sees his home, though distant still; 2 Thus, when the Christian pilgrim views By faith his mansion in the skies, The sight his fainting strength renews, And wings his speed to reach the prize. 3 The thought of home his spirit cheers; No more he grieves for troubles past; Nor any future trial fears, So he may save arrive at last. 4 Jesus, on Thee our hopes we stay, To lead us on to thine abode; Assured our home will make amends For all our toil while on the road.

As with gladness men of old

Appears in 641 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old Did the guiding star behold; As with joy they hail'd its light, Leading onward, beaming bright; So, most gracious Lord, may we Evermore be led to Thee. 2 As with joyful steps they sped To that lowly manger-bed, There to bend the knee before Him Whom heaven and earth adore; So may we with willing feet Ever seek the mercy-seat. 3 As they offer'd gifts most rare At that manger rude and bare; So may we with holy joy, Pure and free from sin's alloy, All our costliest treasures bring, Christ, to Thee, our heavenly King. 4 Holy Jesu, every day Keep us in the narrow way; And, when earthly things are past, Bring our ransom'd souls at last Where they need no star to guide, Where no clouds Thy glory hide. 5 In the heavenly country bright Need they no created light; Thou its Light, its Joy, its Crown, Thou its Sun which goes not down; There for ever may we sing Hallelujahs to our King.
