O Lord of Hosts, Whose Glory Fills
Author: John M. Neale Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 97 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Lord of hosts, whose glory fills
The bounds of the eternal hills,
And yet vouchsafes, in Christian lands,
To dwell in temples made with hands;
2. Grant that all we, who here today
Rejoicing this foundation lay,
May be in very deed Thine own.
Built on the precious cornerstone.
3. Endue the creatures with Thy grace,
That shall adorn Thy dwelling place;
The beauty of the oak and pine,
The gold and silver, make them Thine.
4. To Thee they all belong; to Thee
The treasures of the earth and sea;
And when we bring them to Thy throne,
We but present Thee with Thine own.
5. Endue the hearts that guide with skill,
Preserve the hands that work from ill,
That we, who these foundations lay,
May raise the topstone in its day.
6. Both now and ever, Lord, protect
The temple of Thine own elect;
Be Thou in them, and they in Thee,
O ever blessèd Trinity! Used With Tune: MELCOMBE Text Sources: Hymns for the Young, 1854

O For That Flame Of Living Fire
Author: William H. Bathurst Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 93 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O for that flame of living fire,
Which shone so bright in saints of old!
Which bade their souls to Heav’n aspire,
Calm in distress, in danger bold.
2 Where is that Spirit, Lord, which dwelt
In Abraham’s breast, and sealed him Thine?
Which made Paul’s heart with sorrow melt,
And glow with energy divine?
3 That Spirit which, from age to age,
Proclaimed Thy love, and taught Thy ways?
Brightened Isaiah’s vivid page,
And breathed into David’s hallowed lays?
4 Is not Thy grace as mighty now
As when Elijah felt its power;
When glory beamed from Moses’ brow,
Or Job endured the trying hour?
5 Remember, Lord, the ancient days;
Renew Thy work; thy grace restore;
Warm our cold hearts to prayer and praise,
And teach us how to love Thee more. Used With Tune: MELCOMBE Text Sources: Psalms and Hymns, 1831

Canst be: O Christ, walk with him now;
While our weak hands reach up to Thine,
To strengthen him with might divine.
4. Thou in whose love Thy Church is blest,
Thy name alone be here confessed,
By holy lives be glorified,
While here Thy peace shall still abide. Used With Tune: MELCOMBE

Thy judgments are a mighty deep.

Whence all our hope and comfort spring!
The sons of Adam in distress
Fly to the shadow of Thy wing.

The glories promised in Thy word. Topics: His Goodness and Love; God His Goodness and love Used With Tune: [High in the heavens, eternal God]

God is the refuge of his saints
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 464 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God is the refuge of his saints,
when storms of sharp distress invade;
ere we can offer our complaints,
behold him present with his aid!
2 Let mountains from their seats be hurled
down to the deep, and buried there,
convulsions shake the solid world,
our faith shall never yield to fear.
3 Loud may the troubled ocean roar;
in sacred peace our souls abide;
while every nation, every shore,
trembles, and dreads the swelling tide.
4 There is a stream, whose gentle flow
supplies the city of our God,
life, love, and joy, still gliding through,
and watering our divine abode:
5 that sacred stream, thine holy word,
that all our raging fear controls;
sweet peace thy promises afford,
and give new strength to fainting souls.
6 Sion enjoys her Monarch's love,
secure against a threatening hour;
nor can her firm foundations move,
built on his truth, and armed with power.
