Let Thy Grace Lord Make Me Lowly

Author: William Goode (1762-1816) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 41 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 81 First Line: Let Thy grace, Lord, make me lowly Lyrics: 1 Let Thy grace, Lord, make me lowly, Humble all my swelling pride; Fallen, guilty, and unholy, Greatness from mine eyes I'll hide; I'll forbid my vain aspiring, Nor at early honors aim, No ambitious heights desiring Far above my humble claim. 2 Weaned from earth's delusive pleasures In Thy love I'll seek for mine; Placed in heav'n my nobler treasures, Earth I quietly resign; Thus the transient world despising, On the Lord my hopes rely; Thus my joys from Him arising Like Himself shall never die.

Now Let Us Come Before Him

Author: James Kelly; Paul Gerhardt Appears in 21 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 81:1 Lyrics: 1 Now let us come before Him, With song and prayer adore Him, Who to our life hath given All needed strength from heaven. 2 The stream of years is flowing, And we are onward going, From old to new surviving And by His mercy thriving. 3 In woe we often languish And pass thro' times of anguish Of wars and trepidation Alarming ev'ry nation. 4 As mothers watch are keeping O’er children who are sleeping, Their fear and grief assuaging When angry storms are raging. 5 So God His own is shielding And help to them is yielding. When need and woe distress them, His loving arms caress them. 6 O Thou who dost not slumber, Remove what would encumber Our work, which prospers never Unless Thou bless it ever. 7 O God of mercy, hear us; Our Father, be Thou near us; Mid crosses and in sadness Be Thou our Fount of gladness. 8 To all who bow before Thee And for Thy grace implore Thee, Oh, grant Thy benediction And patience in affliction. 9 Be Thou a Helper speedy To all the poor and needy, To all forlorn a Father; Thine erring children gather. 10 Be with the sick and ailing, Their Comforter unfailing; Dispelling grief and sadness, Oh, give them joy and gladness! 11 Above all else, Lord, send us Thy Spirit to attend us, Within our hearts abiding, To heaven our footsteps guiding. 12 All this Thy hand bestoweth, Thou Life, whence our life floweth. To all Thy name confessing Grant, Lord, Thy New Year’s blessing! Amen. Topics: The Church Year New Year Used With Tune: NUN LASST UNS GOTT, DEM HERREN
