Jesus, Sun of Righteousness
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #178 (1898) Topics: Cares Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Sun of Righteousness,
Brightest beam of love divine,
With the early morning rays
Do Thou on our darkness shine,
And dispel with purest light
All our long and gloomy night.
2 Like the sun's reviving ray,
May Thy love with tender glow
All our coldness melt away,
Warm and cheer us forth to go,
Gladly serve Thee and obey
All our life's short earthly day.
3 Thou our only hope and guide,
Never leave us, nor forsake;
In Thy light may we abide
Till the endless morning break;
Moving on to Zion's hill,
Onward, upward, homeward still.
4 Lead us all our days and years
In Thy straight and narrow way;
Lead us through the vale of tears
To the land of perfect day,
Where Thy people, fully blest,
Near Thy throne forever rest. Languages: English Tune Title: JESUS, SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

A Vindication of God's Ways
Hymnal: The Psalter #201a (1912) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Cares First Line: God loveth the righteous, His goodness is sure Lyrics: 1 God loveth the righteous, His goodness is sure,
He never forsaketh the good and the pure;
Yet once my faith faltered, I envied the proud,
In doubt and disquiet my spirit was bowed.
2 The wicked are prospered and firm is their strength,
No pangs do they suffer, though death come at length;
They are not in trouble as other men are,
The plagues of their fellows they view from afar.
3 In garments of boasting and violence decked,
With wealth more abundant than heart could expect,
They scoff, and the helpless they proudly oppress,
The heav'ns and the earth they assume to possess.
4 Despising God's people, they cause them to drain
The cup of oppression, injustice, and pain;
They question God's knowledge and boldly defy
The might and the justice of God the Most High.
5 The wicked, grown wealthy, have comfort and peace,
While I, daily chastened, see troubles increase,
And, wronging God's children, I cried in my pain,
That clean hands are worthless and pure hearts are vain.
6 I went to God's temple: my doubts were dispelled,
The end of life's journey I clearly beheld;
I saw in what peril ungodly men stand
With sudden destruction and ruin at hand.
7 As when one awaking forgetteth his dream,
So God will despise them, though great they may seem;
My envy was senseless, my grief was for nought,
Because i was faithless, and foolish my thought. Scripture: Psalm 73 Languages: English Tune Title: MOBILE

The Reward of Perfect Trust
Hymnal: The Psalter #249 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Cares First Line: Because thy trust is God alone Lyrics: 1 Because thy trust is God alone,
Thy refuge is the Highest One,
No evil shall upon thee come,
Nor plague approach thy guarded home.
2 Angelic guards at His commands
Will bear thee safely in their hands,
Will keep thee, lest, if left alone,
Thou dash thy foot against a stone.
3 Though fierce and treach'rous foes assail,
Their pow'r and wrath shall not prevail;
Their cruel strength, their venomed spite,
Thou shalt o'ercome with conqu'ring might.
4 Because on Me he set his love,
I will his constant Saviour prove,
And since to him My Name in known,
I will exalt him as My own.
5 As oft as he shall call on Me,
Most gracious shall My answer be;
I will be with him in distress,
And in his trouble I will bless.
6 Complete deliverance I will give,
And honor him while he shall live;
Abundant life I will bestow,
To him My full salvation show.

Patient Endurance and Submission
Hymnal: The Psalter #331 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Cares First Line: My soul for Thy salvation faints Lyrics: 1 My soul for Thy salvation faints,
But still I hope in Thee;
I long to see thy promised help,
When Thou shalt comfort me.
2 Thy statues I do not forget,
Tho' wasting grief I know;
Thy servant's days are few, O Lord;
When wilt Thou judge my foe?
3 The proud, disdainful of Thy law,
Entrap me wrongfully;
O Thou, Whose law is just and true,
Help and deliver me.
4 Almost consumed, yet from Thy law
I have not turned away;
In loving-kindness give me strength,
That I may still obey.

Matthew 6:25-34
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Laudes Domini #356 (1888) Topics: Cares First Line: Sometimes a light surprises Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises
The Christian while he sings;
It is the Lord who rises
With healing in his wings:
When comforts are declining,
He grants the soul again
A season of clear shining,
To cheer it after rain.
2 In holy contemplation,
We sweetly then pursue
The theme of God's salvation,
And find it ever new:
Set free from present sorrow,
We cheerfully can say,
Let the unknown to-morrow
Bring with it what it may.
3 It can bring with it nothing,
But he will bring us through;
Who gives the lilies clothing,
Will clothe his people too:
Beneath the spreading heavens,
No creature but is fed;
And he who feeds the ravens,
Will give his children bread.
4 Though vine nor fig-tree neither,
Their wonted fruit should bear,
Though all the fields should wither,
Nor flocks, nor herds be there;
Yet God the same abiding,
His praise shall tune my voice,
For while in him confiding,
I cannot but rejoice. Scripture: Genesis 22:14 Languages: English Tune Title: CASKEY

What a Friend we have in Jesus
The Lord will provide
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #363 (1888) Topics: Cares First Line: Though troubles assail, and dangers affright Lyrics: 1 Though troubles assail, and dangers affright,
Though friends should all fail, and foes all unite,
Yet one thing secures us, whatever betide,
The promise assures us, "The Lord will provide."
2 The birds, without barn or store-house, are fed;
From them let us learn to trust for our bread:
His saints what is fitting shall ne'er be denied,
So long as 'tis written, "The Lord will provide."
3 When life sinks apace, and death is in view,
The word of his grace shall comfort us through:
Not fearing or doubting, with Christ on our side,
We hope to die shouting, "The Lord will provide." Scripture: Genesis 22:14 Languages: English Tune Title: HOUGHTON
The Lord will provide
