Established is God's law, and changeless it shall stand deep written on the human heart, in every land. 3 God has eternal life implanted in the soul; God's love shall be our strength and stay, while ages roll. All praise the living God!

In the church's pilgrim journey you have led us all the way, still in presence move before us, fire by night and cloud by day. 3 Come, O Spirit, dwell among us; give us words of fire and flame. Help our struggling voices praise you, glorify your holy name. Good Creator, Savior, Spirit, Three in One: what mystery! We would sing our loud hosannas now and through eternity.

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken

Author: John Newton Hymnal: NCH1995 #307 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Exodus 13:22 Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken, Zion, city of our God; One whose word cannot be broken formed you for a blessed abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, what can shake your sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, you may smile at all your foes. 2 See! the streams of living waters, springing from eternal Love, Well supply your sons and daughters, and all fear of want remove. Who can faint while such a river ever will their thirst assuage? Grace which, like our God, the Giver, never fails from age to age? 3 'Round each habitation hovering, see the cloud and fire appear For a glory and a covering, showing that the Lord in near! Thus deriving from their banner light by night and shade by day, Safe they feed upon the manna which God gives them when they pray. 4 Savior, if of Zion's city we through grace a part may claim, Let the world deride or pity, we will glory in your name. Fading is all worldly pleasure, all earth's boasted pomp and show; Solid joys and lasting treasures, none but Zion's children know.
