The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel John Stone Hymnal: Voices United #332 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Christian Year Reformation Day Lyrics: 1 The Church's one foundation
is Jesus Christ her Lord;
she is his new creation
by water and the word:
from heaven he came and sought her
to be his holy bride;
with his own blood he bought her,
and for her life he died.
2 Elect from every nation,
yet one o'er all the earth,
her charter of salvation,
one Lord, one faith, one birth;
one holy name she blesses,
partakes one holy food,
and to one hope she presses,
with every grace endued.
3 'Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of her war
she waits the consummation
of peace for evermore;
till with the vision glorious
her longing eyes are blessed,
and the great Church victorious
shall be the Church at rest.
4 Yet she on earth hath union
with God, the Three in one,
and mystic sweet communion
with those whose rest is won.
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
like them, the meek and lowly,
on high may dwell with thee. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Fear not, O little flock, the foe
Author: Johann Michael Altenburg, 1584-1640; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #470 (1961) Meter: 8.8.6 D Topics: Reformation Day Lyrics: 1 Fear not, O little flock, the foe
Who madly seeks your overthrow;
Dread not his rage and pow'r:
What though your courage sometimes faints,
His seeming triumph o'er God's saints
Lasts but a little hour.
2 Be of good cheer; your cause belongs
To him who can avenge your wrongs;
Leave it to him, our Lord:
Though hidden yet from all our eyes,
He sees the Gideon who shall rise
To save us and his Word.
3 As true as God's own Word is true,
Nor earth nor hell with all their crew
Against us shall prevail.
A jest and byword are they grown;
God is with us, we are his own;
Our vict'ry cannot fail.
4 Amen, Lord Jesus, grant our pray'r;
Great Captain, now thine arm make bare,
Fight for us once again;
So shall thy saints and martyrs raise
A mighty chorus to thy praise,
World without end. Amen.
Amen. Scripture: Luke 12:32 Languages: English Tune Title: JEHOVAH NISSI
Fear not, O little flock, the foe
When Stephen, Full of Power and Grace
Author: Jan Struther Hymnal: The Worshipbook #638 (1972) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Other Observances Reformation Day Lyrics: 1 When Stephen, full of power and grace,
Went forth throughout the land,
He bore no shield before his face,
No weapon in his hand;
But only in his heart a flame
And on his lips a sword
Wherewith he smote and overcame
The foemen of the Lord.
2 When Stephen preached against the laws
And by those laws was tried,
He had no friend to plead his cause,
No spokesman at his side;
But only in his heart a flame
And in his eyes a light
Wherewith God's daybreak to proclaim
And rend the veils of night.
3 When Stephen, young and doomed to die,
Fell crushed beneath the stones,
He had no curse nor vengeful cry
For those who broke his bones;
But only in his heart a flame
And on his lips a prayer
That God, in sweet forgiveness' name,
Should understand and spare.
4 Let me, O Lord, your cause defend,
A knight without a sword;
No shield I ask, no faithful friend,
No vengeance, no reward;
But only in my heart a flame
And in my soul a dream,
So that the stones of earthly shame
A jeweled crown may seem.
Amen. Scripture: Acts 6, 7 Tune Title: SALVATION
When Stephen, Full of Power and Grace

I Greet You, Sure Redeemer
Author: Elizabeth L. Smith Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #251 (1995) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Reformation Day First Line: I greet you, sure Redeemer, with my heart Lyrics: 1 I greet you, sure Redeemer, with my heart,
glad for the saving love that you impart,
Who pain did undergo for my poor sake;
I pray you from our hearts all cares to take.
2 You are the source of mercy and of grace,
reigning omnipotent in every place;
So rule in us and our whole being sway.
Shine on us with the light of your pure day.
3 You are the life, by which alone we live,
and all our substance and our strength receive.
Sustain us by your faith and by your power,
and give us strength in every trying hour.
4 You have the true and perfect gentleness,
no harshness have you and no bitterness;
Grant us the grace that flows in you so free
that we may dwell in perfect unity.
5 Our hope is all in you and you alone;
we trust the promise that your word makes known.
O dear Redeemer, make us calm and sure,
that in your strength we evermore endure.
