O Love of God, How Strong and True
Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: TH1990 #81 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Lyrics: 1 O love of God, how strong and true!
eternal and yet ever new,
uncomprehended and unbought,
beyond all knowledge and all thought!
O love of God, how deep and great,
far deeper than man's deepest hate;
self-fed, self-kindled like the light,
changeless, eternal, infinite.
2 O heav'nly love, how precious still,
in days of weariness and ill,
in nights of pain and helplessness,
to heal, to comfort, and to bless!
O wide-embracing, wondrous love!
We read you in the sky above,
we read you in the earth below,
in seas that swell, and streams that flow.
3 We read you best in him who came
to bear for us the cross of shame;
sent by the Father from on high,
our life to live, our death to die.
We read your pow'r to bless and save,
e'en in the darkness of the grave;
still more in resurrection light
we read the fulness of your might.
4 O love of God, our shield and stay
through all the perils of our way!
Eternal love, in you we rest,
forever safe, forever blest.
We will exalt you, God and King,
and we will ever praise your name;
we will extol you ev'ry day,
and evermore your praise proclaim.

O Love of God, How Strong and True
Great God of Wonders!
Author: Samuel Davies, 1723-1761 Hymnal: TH1990 #82 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D with refrain Refrain First Line: Who is a pardoning God like thee? Lyrics: 1 Great God of wonders! all thy ways
are matchless, godlike and divine;
but the fair glories of thy grace
more godlike and unrivaled shine,
more godlike and unrivaled shine.
Refrain:
Who is a pard'ning God like thee?
Or who has grace so rich and free?
Or who has grace so rich and free?
2 In wonder lost, with trembling joy
we take the pardon of our God;
pardon for crimes of deepest dye,
a pardon bought with Jesus' blood,
a pardon bought with Jesus' blood. [Refrain]
3 O may this strange, this matchless grace,
this God-like miracle of love,
fill the whole earth with grateful praise,
and all th'angelic choirs above,
and all th'angelic choirs above. [Refrain] Topics: God His Faithfulness; Forgiveness of Sins; Grace Fullness of Scripture: Micah 7:18 Languages: English Tune Title: SOVEREIGNTY (OR WONDERS)

O Praise the Lord, For He Is Good
Hymnal: TH1990 #83 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O praise the Lord, for he is good,
his mercies still endure;
thus say the ransomed of the Lord,
from all their foes secure.
2 He gathered them from out the lands,
from north, south, east and west.
They strayed in desert's pathless way,
No city found for rest.
3 Their weary soul within them faints
when thirst and hunger press;
in trouble then they cried to God,
he saved them from distress.
4 He made the way before them straight,
himself became their guide,
that they might to a city go
wherein they might abide.
5 O that men would Jehovah praise
for all his kindness shown,
and for his works so wonderful
which he to men makes known!
6 Because the longing soul by him
with food is satisfied,
the hungry soul that looks to him
with goodness is supplied.

safe in the secret place of the Most High!
He is my refuge, the Lord is my fortress,
him I am trusting when trouble is nigh.

safe in the refuge hide thee;
trusting his truth and faithfulness,

unto Jehovah for refuge now fly;
there shall no evil befall thee nor harm thee,
unto thy dwelling no plague shall come nigh. [Refrain]

he will exalt thee and answer thy prayer;
he will be with thee to honor and give thee
life without end, his salvation to share. [Refrain]

in presence of my foes;

and my cup overflows.

shall surely follow me:
and in God's house forevermore
my dwelling place shall be.

With Grateful Heart My Thanks I Bring
Hymnal: TH1990 #88 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 With grateful heart my thanks I bring,
before the great thy praise I sing:
I worship in thy holy place
and praise thee for thy truth and grace;
for truth and grace together shine
in thy most holy word divine.
2 I cried to thee and thou didst save,
thy word of grace new courage gave;
the kings of earth shall thank thee, Lord,
for they have heard thy wondrous word;
yea, they shall come with songs of praise,
for great and glorious are thy ways.
3 O Lord, enthroned in glory bright,
thou reignest in the heav'nly height;
the proud in vain thy favor seek,
but thou hast mercy for the meek;
through trouble though my pathway be,
thou wilt revive and strengthen me.
4 Thou wilt stretch forth thy mighty arm
to save me when my foes alarm;
the work thou hast for me begun
shall by thy grace be fully done;
Forever mercy dwells with thee;
O Lord, my Maker, think on me.

God Is Our Strength and Refuge
Author: Richard T. Bewes Hymnal: TH1990 #89 (1990) Meter: 7.7.7.5.7.7.11 Lyrics: 1 God is our strength and refuge,
our present help in trouble;
and we therefore will not fear,
though the earth should change!
Though mountains shake and tremble,
though swirling floods are raging,
God the Lord of Hosts is with us evermore!
2 There is a flowing river,
within God's holy city;
God is in the midst of her -
she shall not be moved!
God's help is swiftly given,
thrones vanish at his presence -
God the Lord of Hosts is with us evermore!
3 Come, see the works of our Maker,
learn of his deeds all pow'rful;
wars will cease across the world
when he shatters the spear!
Be still and know your Creator,
uplift him in the nations -
God the Lord of Hosts is with us evermore! Topics: Reformation Day; God His Faithfulness; God Our Strength Scripture: Psalm 46 Languages: English Tune Title: DAM BUSTERS MARCH

The Man Who Once Has Found Abode
Hymnal: TH1990 #90 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The man who once has found abode,
within the secret place of God
shall with Almighty God abide,
and in his shadow safely hide.
2 I therefore of the Lord will say,
he is my refuge and my stay;
my citadel of strength is he —
My God in whom my trust shall be.
3 For he shall with his watchful care
preserve thee from the fowler's snare;
yea, he shall be thy sure defense
against the deadly pestilence.
4 His outspread pinions shall thee hide,
beneath his wings shalt thou confide.
His faithfulness shall ever be
a shield and buckler unto thee.
5 No nightly terrors shall alarm,
no deadly shaft by day shall harm;
nor pestilence that walks by night,
nor plagues that waste in noonday light.
6 Because his angels he commands
to bear thee safely in their hands,
to guard thy ways, lest left alone,
thou dash thy foot against a stone.
7 "Because he set his love on Me,
from danger I will set him free.
Because to him My name is known,
On high I'll set him as Mine own."
