O Love of God, How Strong and True
Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #81 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: Preparatory Service 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.
Scripture: Ephesians 3:17-19 Languages: English Tune Title: JERUSALEM (PARRY)
O Love of God, How Strong and True
Bow Down Thine Ear, O Lord, and Hear
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #91 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Preparatory Service Lyrics: 1 Bow down thine ear, O Lord, and hear,
for I am poor and great my need;
preserve my soul, for thee I fear;
O God, thy trusting servant heed.
2 O Lord, be merciful to me,
for all the day to thee I cry;
rejoice thy servant, for to thee
I lift my soul, O Lord Most High.
3 For thou, O Lord, art good and kind,
and ready to forgive thou art;
abundant mercy they shall find
who call on thee with all their heart.
4 O Lord, incline thine ear to me,
my voice of supplication heed;
in trouble I will cry to thee,
for thou wilt answer when I plead.
5 There is no God but thee alone,
nor works like thine, O Lord Most High,
all nations shall surround thy throne
and their Creator glorify.
6 In all thy deeds how great thou art!
Thou one true God, thy way make clear;
teach me with undivided heart
to trust thy truth, thy name to fear.

Teach Thy wisdom to my heart;
Make me pure, Thy grace bestow,
Wash me whiter than the snow,
Make me pure, Thy grace bestow,
Wash me whiter than the snow.

Stedfast make my willing heart.
Thy salvation's joy impart,
Stedfast make my willing heart.

And return, O God to Thee;
Savior, all my guilt remove,

And my mouth shall praise accord. Scripture: Psalm 51 Languages: English Tune Title: REFUGE

The glory of Thy Name.

Else would I give it Thee;
Now with appointed offerings
Wilt Thou delighted be.
4 A broken spirit is to God
A pleasing sacrifice;
A broken and a contrite heart
Thou, Lord, wilt not despise.

Her ruined walls restore;
Then sacrifice of righteousness
Shall please Thee as of yore.
6 Thy people then, with willing hands
And hearts that Thou hast blessed,
Shall bring in thankful sacrifice
Their choicest gifts and best. Scripture: Psalm 51 Languages: English Tune Title: COOLING

None other Lamb, none other Name

None other Hiding-place from guilt and shame,

Only my heart's desire cries out in me
By the deep thunder of its want and woe,
Cries out to thee.
3 Lord, thou art Life, though I be dead;
Love's fire thou art, however cold I be:
Nor heav'n have I, nor place to lay my head,
Nor home, but thee.

Redemption's only spring!

Its Saviour and its King.

Which laid our sins on thee,
And led thee to a cruel death,
To set thy people free.
3 But now the bands of death are burst,
The ransom has been paid;
And thou art on thy Father's throne,
In glorious robes arrayed.
4 O Christ, be thou our lasting joy,
Our ever great reward!
Our only glory may it be
To glory in the Lord.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: BRADFORD

O, love, how deep, how broad, how high
Author: Benjamin Webb Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #121 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Preparatory Service Lyrics: 1 O, love, how deep, how broad, how high,
How passing thought and fantasy,
That God, the Son of God, should take
Our mortal form for mortals' sake!
2 For us baptized, for us he bore
His holy fast, and hungered sore,
For us temptations sharp he knew,
For us the tempter overthrew.
3 For us to wicked men betrayed,
Scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed;
For us he bore the cross's death,
For us at length gave up his breath.
4 For us he rose from death again,
For us he went on high to reign,
For us he sent his Spirit here
To guide, to strengthen and to cheer.
5 All honor, laud, and glory be,
O Jesus, virgin-born, to thee;
Whom with the Father we adore,
And Holy Ghost, for evermore.
Amen. Scripture: Ephesians 3:17-19 Languages: English Tune Title: MELCOMBE

Lord, hear my call.
I love you, Lord, for you will hear my plea,
forgiving all.
If you should mark our sins, who then could stand?
But grace and mercy dwell at your right hand.
2 I wait for God, the Lord, and on his word
my hope relies;
my soul still waits and looks unto the Lord
till light arise.
I look for him to drive away my night,
yes, more than watchmen look for morning light.

will well provide,
for mercy and redemption full and free
with him abide.
From sin and evil, mighty though they seem,
his arm almighty will his saints redeem. Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English Tune Title: SANDON
