How precious, Lord, thy sacred word

Meter: 8.8.6 Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1. How precious, Lord, thy sacred word; What light and joy these leaves afford, To souls in deep distress, Thy precepts guide my doubtful way, Thy fear forbids my feet to stray, Thy promise leads to rest. 2. Thy threatenings wake our slumbering eyes, And warn me us where our danger lies; But 'tis thy gospel, Lord, That makes the guilty conscience clean, Converts the soul, and conquers sin, And gives a free reward.

Great God, We Praise Your Mighty Love

Author: Alan Gaunt (1935-) Meter: 8.8.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Great God we praise your mighty love which urges us to rise above constricting doubts and fears; your purpose is to set us free to live our lives creatively throughout the coming years. 2 We praise you for the love we see in husband, wife and family, in friends and neighbours too; the love which nurtured us from birth, the love which teaches human worth and lifts our minds to you. 3 We praise you most for love supreme which breaks through pain and death to stream in unrestricted light; which from Christ's resurrection dawn has shone, and never been withdrawn, to make our future bright. 4 For by your perfect love refined, our own will not be undermined by futile guilt and shame; but through disaster, grief and strife we'll reaffirm the joy of life and glorify your name.
