God Of Mercy, God Of Grace
Author: Henry Francis Lyte Appears in 200 hymnals First Line: God of mercy, God of grace Lyrics: 1 God of mercy, God of grace,
Show the brightness of Thy face;
Shine upon us, Savior, shine,
Fill Thy Church with light divine,
And Thy saving health extend
Unto earth's remotest end.
2 Let the people praise Thee, Lord!
Be by all that live adored;
Let the nations shout and sing
Glory to th' eternal King;
At Thy feet their tributes pay
And Thy holy will obey.
3 Let the people praise Thee, Lord!
Earth shall then her fruits afford;
God to man His blessing give;
Man to God devoted live;
All below and all above
One in joy, in light, in love.
Amen.

God Of Mercy, God Of Grace
Faith is wisdom from on high
Author: Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D. Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Faith is wisdom from on high,
Hearing ear and seeing eye;
In the soul a higher light
Than the ken of mortal sight:
Vivid trust in hope serene,
Evidence of things not seen.
2 Faith in meekness, as is meet,
Sits and learns at Jesus' feet;
Nestles closely to the Lord,
Happy in the Master's Word;
Cleaves to it, defends it then:
This to faith is Yea, Amen.
3 Faith is sure, where sight is blind:
While lost sense may nowhere find
Hope, to stay a sinking soul
When the billows o'er it roll,
Faith directs its saving quest
To the cross, and there finds rest.
4 Faith, in childlike trust, is wise:
Trusting Him who never lies;
By whose grace the weak grow strong,
Change their sighing into song.
Praise be Thine, O Lord of might!
Faith shall end in glorious sight. Topics: The Catechism Faith; Second Sunday in Lent; First Sunday after Easter; Fifteenth Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: SULLIVAN

Jesus, Whom Thy Church Doth Own
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Gerhard Tersteegen Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, whom Thy Church doth own
As her Head and King alone,
Bless me, Thy poor member too,
And Thy Spirit's influence give,
That to Thee henceforth I live;
Daily Thou my strength renew.
2 Let Thy living Spirit flow
Thro' Thy members all below,
With its warmth and pow'r divine;
Scattered far apart they dwell,
Yet in ev'ry land, full well,
Lord, Thou knowest who is Thine.
3 Those who serve Thee I would serve,
Never from their union swerve,
Here I cry before Thy face--
Zion, God give thee good speed,
Christ thy footsteps ever lead,
Make thee steadfast in His ways.
Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace The Christian Church Used With Tune: SULLIVAN
Jesus, Whom Thy Church Doth Own
Hark! the Church proclaims her honor
Author: Samuel Preiswerk; Catherine Winkworth Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hark! the Church proclaims her honor,
And her strength is only this:
God hath laid His choice upon her,
And the work she doth is His.
And the work she doth is His.
2 He His Church hath firmly founded,
He will guard what He began;
We by sin and foes surrounded,
Build her bulwarks as we can.
3 Onward, then! for naught despairing,
Calm we follow at His Word,
Thus through joy and sorrow bearing
Faithful witness to our Lord.
4 Though we here must strive in weakness,
Though in tears we often bend,
What His might began in meekness
Shall achieve a glorious end. Topics: The Catechism The Church; Fifth Sunday after Epiphany Used With Tune: SULLIVAN
