Before You, God, the Judge of All
Author: Magnus B. Landstad, 1802-80; Carl Döving, 1867-1937 Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #306 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Before you, God, the Judge of all,
With grief and shame I humbly fall.
I see my sins against you, Lord,
My sins of thought and deed and word.
They press me sore; to you I flee:
O God, be merciful to me!
2 O Lord, my God, to you I pray:
Oh, cast me not in wrath away!
Let your good Spirit ne'er depart,
But let him draw to you my heart
That truly penitent I be:
O God, be merciful to me!
3 O Jesus, let your precious blood
Be to my soul a cleansing flood.
Turn not, O Lord, your guest away,
But grant that justified I may
Go to my house at peace to be:
O God, be merciful to me! Topics: Confession and Absolution; Confession and Absolution Languages: English Tune Title: VATER UNSER IM HIMMELREICH, DER DU

Thou Hidden Love of God
Author: Gerhard Tersteegen; John Wesley Hymnal: Hymns to the Living God #306 (2017) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 First Line: Thou hidden Love of God, whose height Lyrics: 1 Thou hidden Love of God, whose height,
whose depth unfathomed, no man knows,
I see from far Thy beauteous light,
and inly sigh for Thy repose;
my heart is pained, nor can it be
at rest till it finds rest in Thee.
2 'Tis mercy all that Thou hast brought
my mind to seek its peace in Thee;
yet while I seek, but find Thee not,
no peace my wand'ring soul shall see.
O when shall all my wand'rings end,
and all my steps to Thee-ward tend?
3 Is there a thing beneath the sun
that strives with Thee my heart to share?
Ah! tear it thence, and reign alone,
the Lord of ev'ry motion there;
then shall my heart from earth be free,
when it has found repose in Thee.
4 O hide this self from me, that I
no more, but Christ in me, may live;
my vile affections crucify,
nor let one darling lust survive;
in all things nothing may I see,
nothing desire, or seek, but Thee.
5 O Love, Thy sov'reign aid impart
to save me from low-thoughted care;
chase this self-will from all my heart,
from all its hidden mazes there;
make me Thy duteous child, that I
may ceaseless "Abba, Father," cry.
6 Each moment draw from earth away
my heart, that lowly waits Thy call;
speak to my inmost soul, and say
"I am Thy Love, Thy God, Thy all."
To feel Thy pow'r, to hear Thy voice,
to taste Thy love, be all my choice!

Be to my soul a cleansing flood.

My God, I Know that I Must die
Author: Benjamin Schmolck, 1672-1737 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #319 (1901) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 My God, I know that I must die:
My mortal life is passing hence;
On earth I neither hope nor try
To find a lasting residence.
Then teach me by Thy heavenly grace
With joy and peace my death to face.
2 My God, I know not when I die;
What is the moment or the hour;
How soon the clay may broken lie,
How quickly pass away the flower:
Then may Thy child preparéd be
Through time to meet eternity.
3 My God, I know not how I die;
For death has many ways to come,
In dark mysterious agony,
Or gently as a sleep to some.
Just as Thou wilt, if but it be
To bring me, blesséd Lord, to Thee!
4 My God, I know not where I die,
Where is my grace, beneath what strand;
Yet from its gloom I do rely
To be delivered by Thy hand.
Content, I take what spot is mine,
Since all the earth, my Lord, is Thine.
5 My gracious God, when I must die,
Oh, bear my happy soul above,
With Christ, my Lord, eternally
To share Thy glory and Thy love:
Then comes it right and well to me,
When, where, and how my death shall be. Topics: Death and Resurrection Languages: English Tune Title: VATER UNSER IM HIMMELREICH

disdain not, Lord, our meaner song,
who praise you with a stammering tongue.

your courts with grateful fragrance fill;

still hear and do your sovereign will;
to you may all our thoughts arise,
ceaseless, accepted sacrifice. Topics: Praise of God; Gathering of the Community Scripture: Genesis 28:10-22 Languages: English Tune Title: VATER UNSER (OLD 112th)

Jesus, Thy Boundless Love to Me
Author: John Wesley; Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #349 (1941) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy boundless love to me
No thought can reach, no tongue declare;
Unite my thankful heart with Thee
And reign without a rival there.
To Thee alone, dear Lord, I live;
Myself to Thee, dear Lord, I give.
2 Oh, grant that nothing in my soul
May dwell but Thy pure love alone!
Oh, may Thy love possess me whole,
My Joy, my Treasure, and my Crown!
All coldness from my heart remove;
My ev'ry act, word, thought, be love.
3 O Love, how cheering is Thy ray!
All pain before Thy presence flies;
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away
Where'er Thy healing beams arise.
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire or seek, but Thee!
4 This love unwearied I pursue
And dauntlessly to Thee aspire.
Oh, may Thy love my hope renew,
Burn in my soul like heav'nly fire!
And day and night be all my care
To guard this sacred treasure there.
5 Oh, draw me, Savior, e'er to Thee;
So shall I run and never tire.
With gracious words still comfort me;
Be Thou my Hope, my sole Desire.
Free me from every guilt and fear;
No sin can harm if Thou art near.
6 Still let Thy love point out my way;
What wondrous things Thy love hath wrought!
Still lead me lest I go astray;
Direct my work, inspire my thought;
And if I fall, soon may I hear
Thy voice and know that love is near!
7 In suffering be Thy love my peace,
In weakness be Thy love my power;
And when the storms of life shall cease,
O Jesus, in that final hour,
Be Thou my Rod and Staff and Guide
And draw me safely to Thy side!

Lord God of hosts, whose mighty hand
Author: John Oxenham, 1852 - 1941 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #359a (1958) Lyrics: 1 Lord God of hosts, whose mighty hand
Dominion holds on sea and land,
In peace and war thy will we see
Shaping the larger liberty;
Nations may rise and nations fall,
Thy changeless purpose rules them all.
2 For those who weak and broken lie
In weariness and agony,
Great Healer, to their beds of pain
Come, touch, and make them whole again.
O hear a people's prayers, and bless
Thy servants in their hour of stress. A-men.
3 For those to whom the call shall come,
We pray thy tender welcome home;
The toil, the bitterness, all past,
We trust them to thy love at last.
O hear a people's prayers for all
Who, nobly striving, nobly fall.
4 For those who minister and heal,
And spend themselves, their skill, their zeal;
Renew their hearts with Christ-like faith,
And guard them from disease and death;
And in thine own good time, Lord, send
Thy peace on earth till time shall end.
Amen. Topics: Church Life and Work City, Nation, World Languages: English Tune Title: VATER UNSER

O cast me not in wrath away;

But draw me closer to thy heart;
That is my penitential plea,
O God, be merciful to me.

Be to my soul a cleansing flood,
To wash my sins and guilt away;

Go to my house with peace from thee:
