O God, Thou Faithful God
O God, My Faithful God
Author: Johann Heermann; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #615 (1995) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 O God, my faithful God,
O fountain ever flowing,
without whom nothing is,
all perfect gifts bestowing,
grant me a faithful life,
and give me, Lord, within,
commitment free from strife,
a soul unhurt by sin.
2 God, grant me strength to do
with ready heart and willing,
whatever you command,
my calling here fulfilling;
and do it when I ought,
with zeal and joyfulness;
and bless the work I've wrought,
for you must give success.
3 Keep me from saying words
that later need recalling;
guard me, lest idle speech
may from my lips be falling;
but when, within my place,
I must and ought to speak,
then to my words give grace,
lest I offend the weak.
4 When dangers gather round,
still keep me calm and fearless;
help me to bear the cross
when life seems bleak and cheerless,
to overcome my foes
with words and actions kind;
O God, your will disclose,
your counsel let me find.

with all its vaunted pleasure
when you, and you alone,
Lord Jesus, are my treasure!
You only, dearest Lord,
my soul's delight shall be;
you are my peace, my rest.
What is the world to me!
2 The world seeks after wealth
and all that money offers,
yet never is content
though gold should fill its coffers.
I have a higher good,
content with it I'll be;
my Jesus is my wealth.
What is the world to me!
3 The world is like a cloud
and like a vapor fleeting,
a shadow that declines,
swift to its end retreating.
My Jesus shall remain,
though all things fade and flee,
my everlasting rock.
What is the world to me!
4 What is the world to me!
My Jesus is my treasure,
my life, my health, my wealth,
my friend, my love, my pleasure,
my joy, my crown, my all,
my bliss eternally.

What is the world to me! Topics: Discipleship Scripture: Psalm 73:25 Languages: English Tune Title: WAS FRAG ICH NACH DER WELT

3 The world seeks after wealth
And all that mammon offers
Yet never is content
Though gold should fill its coffers.

My Jesus is my treasure,
My life, my health, my wealth,
My friend, my love, my pleasure,

In human flesh is vested.

The woman’s promised Seed—

The gloomy night has fled
Wherein the world lay pining.

Who long thy heart hath thrilled;
Hear Zion’s watchmen cry:
Now are the days fulfilled.

The child of God rejoices;
No bondage of the Law,
No curses that it voices,
Can fill our hearts with fear;
On Christ our hope we build.
Behold the Prince of Peace—

And in a manger lay to teach His people meekness?

Lord Jesus, art my treasure!
Thou only, dearest Lord,
My soul’s delight shalt be;
Thou art my peace, my rest—

Lo, like a flash ’twill vanish;
With all it gorgeous pomp
Pale death it cannot banish;
Its riches pass away,
And all its joys must flee;
But Jesus doth abide—
What is the world to me?
8. What is the world to me?
My Jesus is my treasure,
My life, my health, my wealth,
My friend, my love, my pleasure,
My joy, my crown, my all,
My bliss eternally.

Our God, to Whom We Turn
Author: Edward Grubb Hymnal: The Hymnbook #128 (1955) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 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 shall 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 Thy 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 Thee as Thou art.
