Make me a captive, Lord
Author: George Matheson, 1842-1906 Hymnal: Together in Song #604 (1999) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Scripture: Jeremiah 17:5-9 Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord,
and then I shall be free;
force me to render up my sword,
and I shall conqueror be.
I sink in life's alarms
when by myself I stand;
imprison me within thine arms,
and strong shall be my hand.
2 My heart is weak and poor
until it master find;
it has no spring of action sure,
it varies with the wind.
It cannot freely move,
till thou hast wrought its chain;
enslave it with thy matchless love,
and deathless it shall reign.
3 My will is not my own
till thou hast made it thine;
if it would reach a monarch's throne,
it must its crown resign;
it only stands unbent
amid the clashing strife,
when on thy bosom it has leant,
and found in thee its life. Topics: Commitment; Consolation; Courage; Faith; Freedom; Jesus Christ Kingship; Personal Petition; Personal Response to Jesus Languages: English Tune Title: ICH HALTE TREULICH STILL

What vile affections there!

Pride, envy, slavish fear.

Expel the darkness of my mind,
And all my powers renew.

Shall loud hosannas raise;
My heart shall glow with gratitude,
My lips proclaim thy praise. Topics: The Fall; Evil heart Languages: English

All my hope on God is founded
Author: Robert Bridges, 1844-1930; Joachim Neander, 1650-1680 Hymnal: Common Praise #368 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.3.3.7 Scripture: Jeremiah 17:7 Lyrics: 1 All my hope on God is founded;
he doth still my trust renew.
Me through change and chance he guideth,
only good and only true.
God unknown,
he alone
calls my heart to be his own.
2 Pride of man and earthly glory,
sword and crown betray his trust;
what with care and toil he buildeth,
tower and temple, fall to dust.
But God's power,
hour by hour,
is my temple and my tower.
3 God's great goodness aye endureth,
deep his wisdom, passing thought:
splendour, light, and life attend him,
beauty springeth out of naught.
Evermore
from his store
new-born worlds rise and adore.
4 Daily doth th' Almighty giver
bounteous gifts on us bestow;
his desire our soul delighteth,
pleasure leads us where we go.
Love doth stand
at his hand;
joy doth wait on his command.
5 Still from earth to God eternal
sacrifice of praise be done,
high above all praises praising
for the gift of Christ his Son.
Christ doth call
one and all:
ye who follow shall not fall. Topics: Fourth Sunday Before Lent Year C; Proper 4 Year A; Proper 26 Year A Languages: English Tune Title: MICHAEL
