How precious, Lord, thy sacred word

Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #277 (1854) Meter: 8.8.6 Lyrics: 1. How precious, Lord, thy sacred word; What light and joy these leaves afford, To souls in deep distress, Thy precepts guide my doubtful way, Thy fear forbids my feet to stray, Thy promise leads to rest. 2. Thy threatenings wake our slumbering eyes, And warn me us where our danger lies; But 'tis thy gospel, Lord, That makes the guilty conscience clean, Converts the soul, and conquers sin, And gives a free reward.

Great God, We Praise Your Mighty Love

Author: Alan Gaunt (1935-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #289 (1998) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Great God we praise your mighty love which urges us to rise above constricting doubts and fears; your purpose is to set us free to live our lives creatively throughout the coming years. 2 We praise you for the love we see in husband, wife and family, in friends and neighbours too; the love which nurtured us from birth, the love which teaches human worth and lifts our minds to you. 3 We praise you most for love supreme which breaks through pain and death to stream in unrestricted light; which from Christ's resurrection dawn has shone, and never been withdrawn, to make our future bright. 4 For by your perfect love refined, our own will not be undermined by futile guilt and shame; but through disaster, grief and strife we'll reaffirm the joy of life and glorify your name.

O Glorious Hope

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Joyful Sound #164 (1889) First Line: O glorious hope of perfect love Lyrics: 1 O glorious hope of perfect love! It lifts me up to things above; It bears on eagles’ wings. It gives my ravished soul a taste, And makes me for some moments feast With Jesus’ priests and kings. 2 Rejoicing now in earnest hope, I stand, and from the mountain top See all the lands below: Rivers of milk and honey rise, And all the fruits of paradise In endless plenty grow. 3 A land of corn, and wine, and oil, Favored with God’s peculiar smile, With every blessing blest; There dwells the Lord our Righteousness, And keeps his own in perfect peace, And everlasting rest. 4 O that I might at once go up; No more on this side of Jordan stop, But now the land possess; This moment end my legal years, Sorrows and sins, and doubts and fears, A howling wilderness! 5 Beyond the bounds of time and space, Look forward to that heavenly place, The saints’ secure abode; On faith’s strong eagle pinions rise, And force your passage to the skies, And scale the mount of God. 6 Who suffer with our Master here, We shall before his face appear And by his side sit down; To patient faith the prize is sure, And all that to the end endure To cross, shall wear the crown. 7 Thrice blessed, bliss-inspiring hope! It lifts the fainting spirits up, It brings to life the dead: Our conflicts here shall soon be past, And you and I ascend at last, Triumphant with our Head. Languages: English Tune Title: WILLOUGHBY
