The House of God
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #4 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Be still! be still! for all around Lyrics:
Be still! be still! for all around,
On either hand, is holy ground:
Here in His house, the Lord to-day
Will listen, while His people pray.
Thou, tost upon the waves of care,
Ready to sink with deep despair,
Here ask relief, with heart sincere,
And thou shalt find that God is here.
Thou who hast laid within the grave
Those whom thou hadst no power to save,
Believe their spirits now are near,
For angels wait while God is here.
Thou who hast dear ones far away,
In foreign lands, ’mid ocean’s spray,
Pray for them now, and dry the tear,
And trust the God who listens here.
Thou who art mourning o’er thy sin,
Deploring guilt that reigns within,
The God of peace is ever near;
The troubled spirit meets Him here.

The Sanctuary
Author: Heber Hymnal: BHPPD866 #6 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Forth from the dark and stormy sky Lyrics:
Forth from the dark and stormy sky,
Lord, to Thine altar’s shade we fly;
Forth from the world, its hope and fear,
Father, we seek Thy shelter here:
Weary and weak, Thy grace we pray;
Turn not, O Lord! Thy guests away.
Long have we roamed in want and pain,
Long have we sought Thy rest in vain;
Wildered in doubt, in darkness lost,
Long have our souls been tempest-tost:
Low at Thy feet our sins we lay;
Turn not, O Lord! Thy guests away.

“It is Good to be Here.”
Author: Gaskell Hymnal: BHPPD866 #10 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Unto Thy temple, God of love Lyrics:
Unto Thy temple, God of love,
Once more we come with willing feet,
To raise our thoughts this world above,
And Thy paternal blessing meet.
May all Thy purest presence feel,
And silent keep each vain desire;
With humble hearts before Thee kneel,
And unto holier strength aspire.
May all be bound in bonds more true
To Thee, who art our life and light,
That through each path which we pursue,
We still may keep Thy love in sight.
And may we, when the day shall close,
Review its course without a fear;
And, nearer heaven than when it rose,
Feel it is good to have been here.

The Lord is in His Holy Temple
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #13 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Lo! God is here; let us adore Lyrics:
Lo! God is here; let us adore,
And humbly bow before His face;
Let all within us feel His power,
Let all within us seek His peace.
Lo! God is here; Him day and night
United choirs of angels sing;
To Him, enthroned above all height,
Heaven’s host their noblest praises bring.
Being of beings! may our praise
Thy courts with grateful incense fill:
Still may we stand before thy face,
Still hear and do thy sovereign will.
More of Thy presence, Lord! impart;
More of Thine image may we bear:
O, fix Thy throne in every heart,
And reign without a rival there.

Hundredth Psalm
Author: Watts Hymnal: BHPPD866 #18 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Before Jehovah's awful throne Lyrics:
Before Jehovah’s awful throne,
Ye nations bow with sacred joy;
Know that the Lord is God alone;
He can create, and He destroy.
His sovereign power, without our aid,
Gave life to clay, and formed us men;
And when like wandering sheep we strayed,
He brought us to His fold again.
We are His people, we His care,
Our souls and all our mortal frame:
What lasting honors shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to Thy name?
We’ll crowd Thy gates with thankful songs;
High as the heavens our voices raise;
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
Shall fill Thy courts with sounding praise.
Wide as the world is Thy command,
Vast as eternity Thy love,
Firm as a rock Thy truth shall stand,
When rolling years shall cease to move.

Author: Frothingham Hymnal: BHPPD866 #23 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O GOD, whose presence glows in all Lyrics:
O God, whose presence glows in all
Within, around us, and above!
Thy word we bless, Thy name we call,
Whose word is Truth, whose name is Love.
That truth be with the heart believed
Of all who seek this sacred place;
With power proclaimed, in peace received,
Our spirit’s light, Thy spirit’s grace.
That love its holy influence pour,
To keep us meek, and make us free;
And throw its binding blessing more
Round each with all, and all with Thee.
Send down its angel to our side;
Send in its calm upon the breast;
For we would know no other guide,
And we can need no other rest.

Coming Together in the Name of Jesus
Author: H. Ware Hymnal: BHPPD866 #24 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Great God! the followers of Thy Son Lyrics:
Great God! the followers of Thy Son,
We bow before Thy mercy-seat,
To worship Thee, the Holy One,
And pour our wishes at Thy feet.
O, grant Thy blessing here to-day!
O, give Thy people joy and peace!
The tokens of Thy love display,
And favor, that shall never cease.
We seek the truth which Jesus brought;
His path of light we long to tread;
Here be his holy doctrines taught,
And here their purest influence shed.
May faith, and hope, and love abound;
Our sins and errors be forgiven;
And we, from day to day, be found
Children of God, and heirs of heaven.

Evening Worship
Author: Bowring Hymnal: BHPPD866 #25 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: How shall we praise Thee, Lord of light! Lyrics:
How shall we praise Thee, Lord of light!
How shall we all Thy love declare!
The earth is veiled in shades of night,
But heaven is open to our prayer,—
42
That heaven, so bright with stars and suns,
That glorious heaven which has no bound,
Where the full tide of being runs,
And life and beauty glow around.
We would adore Thee, God sublime,
Whose power and wisdom, love and grace,
Are greater than the round of time,
And wider than the bounds of space.
Help us to praise Thee, Lord of light!
Help us Thy boundless love declare;
And, while we fill Thy courts to-night,
Aid us, and hearken to our prayer.

Author: W. H. Burleigh Hymnal: BHPPD866 #26 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O Holy Father! 'mid the calm Lyrics:
O Holy Father! ’mid the calm
And stillness of this evening hour,
We would lift up our solemn psalm
To praise Thy goodness, and Thy power
For over us, and over all,
Thy tender mercies still extend,
Nor vainly shall Thy children call
On Thee, our Father and our Friend!
Kept by Thy goodness though the day,
Thanksgiving to Thy name we pour;
Night o’er us, with its stars,—we pray
Thy love, to guard us evermore!
In grief, console; in gladness, bless;
In darkness, guide; in sickness, cheer;
Till, in the Saviour’s righteousness,
Before Thy throne our souls appear!

Seeking Strength
Author: Gaskell Hymnal: BHPPD866 #34 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O God! who knowest how frail we are Lyrics:
O God! who knowest how frail we are,
How soon the thought of good departs;
We pray that Thou wouldst feed the fount
Of holy yearning in our hearts.
Let not the choking cares of earth
The precious springs of life o’ergrow;
But, ever guarded by Thy love,
Still purer may their waters flow.
To Thee, with sweeter hope and trust,
Be every day our spirits given;
And may we, while we walk on earth,
Walk more as citizens of heaven.
