Wonderful Grace of Jesus
Author: Haldor Lillenas Appears in 104 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:8 Refrain First Line: Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus Lyrics: 1. Wonderful grace of Jesus,
Greater than all my sin;
How shall my tongue describe it,
Where shall its praise begin?
Taking away my burden,
Setting my spirit free;
For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.
Refrain:
Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus,
Deeper than the mighty rolling sea;
Higher than the mountain, sparkling like a fountain,
All-sufficient grace for even me!
Broader than the scope of my transgressions,
Greater far than all my sin and shame;
Oh, magnify the precious Name of Jesus,
Praise His Name!
2. Wonderful grace of Jesus,
Reaching to all the lost,
By it I have been pardoned,
Saved to the uttermost;
Chains have been torn asunder,
Giving me liberty;
For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.
3. Wonderful grace of Jesus,
Reaching the most defiled,
By its transforming power,
Making him God’s dear child,
Purchasing peace and heaven
For all eternity—
And the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me. Used With Tune: [Wonderful grace of Jesus]

Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-89 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 95 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:6-12 Lyrics: 1 Fill my whole life, O Lord my God,
in every part with praise,
that my whole being may proclaim
your being and your ways.
2 Not for the lip of praise alone,
nor ev'n the praising heart
I ask, but for a life made up
of praise in every part:
3 praise in the common things of life,
its goings out and in;
praise in each duty and each deed,
however small and mean.
4 Fill every part of me with praise:
let all my being speak
of you and of your love, O Lord,
poor though I be and weak.
5 So shalt you, Lord, receive from me
the praise and glory due;
and so shall I begin on earth
the song for ever new.
6 So shall no part of day and night
from sacredness be free;
but with you, Lord, in every step,
my fellowship will be. Topics: Adoration and Praise; Holiness; Jesus Christ Friend and Companion; Joy; Personal Petition; Personal Response to Jesus; Thanksgiving Used With Tune: RICHMOND

For thee I long, for thee I pray;
Amid the shadows of the night,
Amid the business of the day.
2 When shall I see thy smiling face,
That face which often I have seen;
Arise, thou sun of righteousness,
Scatter the clouds that intervene.
3 Thou art the glorious gift of God,
To sinners weary, and distrest:
The first of all his gifts bestow'd,
And certain pledge of all the rest.
4 Could I but say, this gift is mine,
I'd tread the world beneath my feet;
No more at poverty repine,
Nor envy the rich sinner's state.
5 The precious jewel I would keep,
And lodge it deep within my heart;
At home, abroad, awake asleep,
It never should from thence depart! Topics: Characters and Representations of Christ Gift of God; Christ Gift of God

of orchard, flock, and field
to God, the giver of all good,
the source of bounteous yield;
so we today first fruits would bring:
the wealth of this good land,
of farm and market, shop and home,
of mind, and heart, and hand.
2 A world in need now summons us
to labour, love, and give;
to make our life an offering
that others too may live.
The church of Christ is calling us
to make the dream come true:
a world redeemed, your kingdom come,
all life in Christ made new.
3 In gratitude and humble trust
we bring our best today,
to serve your cause and share your love
with all humanity.
O God, who gave yourself to us
in Jesus Christ your Son,
help us to give ourselves each day
until life's work is done. Topics: Discipleship; Justice; Harvest Thanksgiving Used With Tune: TYROL
