Sun of the soul, Thou Light Divine, Around and in us brightly shine, To joy and gladness wake us That we In Thee Truly living, To Thee giving Prayer unceasing, May be in love be still increasing. 2 Give to Thy Word impressive pow'r That in our hearts, from this good hour, As fire it may be glowing, That we confess the Father, Son, And Thee, the Spirit, Three in One, Thy glory ever showing. Stay Thou, Guide now Our souls ever, That they never May forsake Thee, But by faith their Refuge make Thee. 3 Thou Fountain whence all wisdom flows Which God on pious hearts bestows, Grant us Thy consolation That in our pure faith's unity We faithful witnesses may be, Of grace that brings salvation. Hear us, Cheer us By Thy teaching; Let our preaching And our labor Praise Thee, Lord, and serve our neighbor. 4 Left to ourselves, we shall but stray; Oh, lead us on the narrow way, With wisest counsel guide us, And give us steadfastness that we May ever faithful prove to Thee Whatever woes betide us, Come, Friend, And mend Hearts now broken, Give a token Thou art near us Whom we trust to light and cheer us. 5 Thy heavenly strength sustain our heart That we may act the valiant part, With Thee as our Reliance; Be Thou our Refuge and our Shield That we may never quit the field, But bid all foes defiance. Descend, Defend From all errors And earth's terrors. Thy salvation Be our constant consolation. 6 O mighty Rock, O Source of Life, Let Thy dear Word, mid doubt and strife, Be strong within us burning That we be faithful unto death, In Thy pure love and holy faith, From Thee true wisdom learning. Thy grace And peace On us shower; By Thy power Christ confessing, Let us win our Savior's blessing. 7 O gentle Dew, from heaven now fall With power upon the hearts of all, Thy tender love instilling, That heart to heart more closely bound, In kindly deeds be fruitful found, The law of love fulfilling. Dwell thus In us; Envy banish; Strife will vanish Where Thou livest. Peace and love and joy Thou givest. 8 Grant that our days, while life shall last, In purest holiness be passed, Be Thou our Strength and Tower, From sinful lust and vanity, And from dead works set Thu us free In every evil hour. Keep Thou Pure now From offences Heart and senses. Blessed Spirit, Let us heavenly life inherit. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Pentecost Scripture: Isaiah 11:2 Used With Tune: WIE SCHÖN LEUCHTET

He comes, with peace and love to bide On earth, the erring race to guide And help as could no other; Rather Gather, Closer, fonder, Sheep that wander, Feed and fold them, Than let evil powers hold them. 3 He tears, like other men, will shed, Our sorrows share and be our aid Through His eternal power; The Lord’s good will unto us show, And mingle in our cup of woe The drops of mercy’s shower; Dying, Buying, Through His passion Our salvation, And to mortals Opening the heav'nly portals. 4 He comes, for our redemption sent, And by His glory heav'n is rent, To close upon us never; Our blessed Shepherd He would be, Whom we may follow faithfully And be with Him forever; Higher, Nigher Glory winging, Praises singing To the Father And His Son, our Lord and Brother.

For glory, Lord, to Thee belongs, Thy praise resounds in grateful songs, Thou Lord of all creation. Let all recall Hymns of gladness without sadness, For Thy favor And Thy mercy never waver. 3 Tho’ evil spirits thro’ the night With hellish craft and watchful spite Came round me without number, Yet Thou, O Jesus, with Thy power Wast near me in that threatening hour, Didst guard me in my slumber. Praise be to Thee, My contender and defender, I’ll adore Thee While on earth I walk before Thee. 4 Pour down Thy grace in cheering streams And warm my heart with mercy’s beams From Heav’n, Thy throne of beauty; Thy Spirit ever lead and guide That in my calling I abide And find my joy in duty. Send light and might That each measure, plan and pleasure, Heav’nward tending, E’er in Thee may find its ending. 5 Keep grief, if this may be, away; If not, Thy will be done, I pray, My choice to Thine resigning. Then, O my heart, cast care aside, God through the cross His own hath tried; Bear loss without repining. Hope still through ill; To God cleaving, grace receiving, We shall wonder At God’s goodness here and yonder.

What gracious gifts Thou dost bestow, What streams of bounty ever flow Down from Thy holy heaven, When they Obey Thee, Lord, ever Leave Thee never, Whose troth-plighted, In one life have been united! 2 When man and wife are mated well, In harmony together dwell In chaste and faithful union, Then grows their fortune with their love, And angel visitants above Rejoice at such communion; No storm, No worm Can destroy that, Can e'er gnaw that, What God giveth To the pair that in Him liveth. 3 Be of good cheer, it was not we Who first this order did decree; It was a higher Father, Who loved and liveth us for aye, And from whose lips, when grieved, each day We friendly counsel gather; Good end He'll send To our doing and pursuing, Wisely guiding All our planning and providing. 4 A time will come, it cannot fail, When we 'neath trials sore shall quail, And tears be freely flowing; To him who bears it patiently, By God's grace shall His sorrow be Turned into joy o'erflowing. Waive care, Wait, bear; He is near thee, Who can cheer thee, For thy sadness He will give thee oil of gladness. 5 Come hither then, my King so bless'd! In trials guide, in pain give rest, In anxious times relieving! To Thee we shall ascribe the praise, Our hearts and voices we shall raise In one loud song, thanks giving, Till we With Thee Shall be dwelling And there telling Thy praise ever, Nevermore from Thee to sever.
