O God, Our Faithful God

Author: Johann Heermann; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Appears in 63 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, our faithful God, O fountain ever flowing, Without whom nothing is, All perfect gifts bestowing, Grant us a faithful life, And give us, Lord, within, Commitment free from strife, A soul unhurt by sin. 2 God, grant us strength to do With ready heart and willing, Whatever You command, Our calling here fulfilling; And do it when we ought, With zeal and joyfulness; And bless the work we’ve wrought, For You must give success. 3 If dangers gather round, Still keep us calm and fearless; Help us to bear the cross When life is bleek and cheerless, To overcome our foes With words and actions kind; O God, Your will disclose, Your counsel let us find.

Your gracious presence lend me; Lord, lead your helpless child; Your Holy Spirit send me That I my course may run. Oh, be my light, my lot, My staff, my rock, my shield -- O God, forsake me not! 2 O God, forsake me not! Take not your Spirit from me; Do not permit the might Of sin to overcome me. Increase my feeble faith, Which you alone have wrought. Oh, be my strength and pow'r -- O God, forsake me not! 3 O God, forsake me not! Lord, hear my supplication! In ev'ry evil hour Help me o'ercome temptation; And when the prince of hell My conscience seeks to blot, Be then not far from me -- O God, forsake me not! 4 O God, forsake me not! Lord, I am yours forever. Oh, keep me strong in faith That I may leave you never. Grant me a blessed end When my good fight is fought; Help me in life and death -- O God, forsake me not!

Why do the heathen rage?

Author: B. H. Kennedy Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Why do the heathen rage? What are the nations dreaming? In vain against the Lord And His Anointed scheming, Kings of the earth arise, And leaguéd rulers say: "Come, let us break their bands, And cast their cords away." 2 He who is throned in heaven Derides their preparation; The Lord upon them pours His scornful indignation: Soon shall His voice of wrath Their souls with terror thrill "Yet I have set my King On Zion's holy hill."-- 3 Now will I cry aloud And tell the Lord's great token: "Thou art My Son," He saith: To me the word was spoken: "Yea, Thee have I this day Begotten: ask of Me, And Thine the heathen, Thine Earth's utmost parts shall be: 4 Beneath Thine iron rod Thy foemen shall be shattered, As by the potter's hand The broken shreds lie scattered." Be wise, then, O ye kings, Ye earthly judges, hear; Serve ye the Lord with awe, Rejoice with trembling fear. 5 Bow down and kiss the Son, Lest, if His wrath awaken, Ye fail and fade away, For evermore forsaken. Soon may His anger burn, A lightly kindled flame; Then blessed are all they That trust His holy name.

Our God, to Whom We Turn

Author: Edward Grubb Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Our God, to whom we turn When weary with illusion, Whose stars serenely burn Above this earth’s confusion, Thine is the mighty plan, The steadfast order sure In which the world began, Endures, and will endure. 2. Thou art Thyself the truth; Though we who fain would find Thee, Have tried, with thoughts uncouth, In feeble words to bind Thee, It is because Thou art We’re driven to the quest; Till truth from falsehood part, Our souls can find no rest. 3. All beauty speaks of Thee: The mountains and the rivers, The line of lifted sea, Where spreading moonlight quivers, The deep-toned organ blast That rolls through arches dim, Hints of the music vast Of Thine eternal hymn. 4. Wherever goodness lurks We catch Thy tones appealing; Where man for justice works Thou art Thyself revealing; The blood of man, for man On friendship’s altar spilt, Betrays the mystic plan On which Thy house is built. 5. Thou hidden fount of love, Of peace, and truth, and beauty, Inspire us from above With joy and strength for duty. May Thy fresh light arise Within each clouded heart, And give us open eyes To see Thou as Thou art. Used With Tune: STEADFAST
