Lord, and whither shall we go?

Author: Robert Montgomery Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Advent, Third Sunday Lyrics: 1 Lord, and whither shall we go? Thou alone hast words of life! In our stormy griefs below, Who, but Thou, can heal the strife Sin and sorrow round us being, In life's vale while wandering? 2 Blessed Christ! embodied Word! Thou alone art Life and Light: Saints who have Thy truth preferred Walk in peace, and worship right: Thou alone to sin canst say, "I am Love, the Living Way." 3 Sun of Grace, O ever shine Round our paths, where'er they lead! Midnight feels a ray divine Breaking through the darkest need, If we hear, when most dismayed, "It is I, be not afraid!" 4 Pardon, peace, and purity, Gifts without, and grace within, Love and light which set us free From the curse and chain of sin-- These, Emmanuel, Thou canst give, While upon Thy words we live. 5 Not a want, Thou canst not fill; Not a fear, Thou wilt not tame; If, indeed, repentance will Rest upon Thy glorious Name, High o'er every guilt and grave Shall Redemption's banner wave! 6 Saviour, be our Polar Star, Shaded by no sinful night; Shed upon us from afar Living beams of holy light: When we reach our radiant home, We shall know the Way we come.

And now, O Father, mindful of the love

Author: William Bright (1824-1901) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 93 hymnals Topics: The Third Sunday before Advent Year B Lyrics: 1 And now, O Father, mindful of the love that bought us, once for all, on Calvary's tree, and having with us him that pleads above, we here present, we here spread forth to thee that only offering perfect in thine eyes, the one true, pure, immortal sacrifice. 2 Look, Father, look on his anointed face, and only look on us as found in him; look not on our misusings of thy grace, our prayer so languid, and our faith so dim: for lo, between our sins and their reward we set the Passion of thy Son our Lord. 3 And then for those, our dearest and our best, by this prevailing presence we appeal: O fold them closer to thy mercy's breast, O do thine utmost for their souls' true weal; from tainting mischief keep them white and clear, and crown thy gifts with strength to persevere. 4 And so we come: O draw us to thy feet, most patient Saviour, who canst love us still; and by this food, so aweful and so sweet, deliver us from every touch of ill: in thine own service make us glad and free, and grant us never more to part with thee. Scripture: Hebrews 7:25 Used With Tune: UNDE ET MEMORES

Be thou my guardian and my guide

Author: Isaac Williams, 1802-1865 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 39 hymnals Topics: Third Sunday Before Advent Year C Lyrics: 1 Be thou my guardian and my guide, and hear me when I call; let not my slippery footsteps slide, and hold me lest I fall. 2 The world, the flesh, and Satan dwell around the path I tread; O save me from the snares of hell, thou quickener of the dead. 3 And if I tempted am to sin, and outward things are strong, do thou, O Lord, keep watch within, and save my soul from wrong. 4 Still let me ever watch and pray, and feel that I am frail; that if the tempter cross my way, yet he may not prevail. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:12-13 Used With Tune: ABRIDGE

O Gud, du fromme Gud

Author: Birg. Kaas; J. Heermann Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Third Sunday in Advent For Evening Lyrics: 1 O Gud, du fromme Gud, Du Kilde til al Gave! Af dig er alt, hvad er, Af dig vi al ting have. Mit Legem Helbred giv, Og giv mig dertil med En ubesmittet Sjæl, Og god Samvittighed! 2 Giv, at jeg gjør med Flid Alt, hvad jeg bør at gjøre, Hvortil mig dine Bud Udi mit Kald kan føre; Giv, at jeg findes tro, Gjør altid Ret og Skjel, Og havd jeg gjør, saa giv, At det maa lykkes vel! 3 Hjælp, at jeg taler saa, At jeg det kan forsvare, Lad intet syndigt Ord Mig ud af Munden fare; Lad mig min Fiende Godt Af ganske Hjerte te, Lær mig, som raadvild er, De bedste Raad at se! 4 Lad mig og med enhver I Fred og Venskab blive, Og unde alle vel; Vil du mig noget give Af Rigdom, Penge, Gods, Saa giv mig og derved, At intet blandes maa Med Uretfærdighed! 5 Skal jeg i Verden her Maaske end leve længe, Med mange sure Trin Til Alderdom fremtrænge, Saa giv Taalmodighed, Vend Synd og Skam kun af, At med et ærligt Navn Jeg lægges i min Grav! 6 Lad mig paa Kristi Død I Naade herfra skilles, Tag Sjælen op til dig, I Glædens Sol at stilles, Og Legemet et Rum Hos fromme Kristne und, At det maa hvile stilt Hos dem til sidste Stund! 7 Naar du de Døde skal Paa Dommedag opvække, Saa vilde du din Haand Og til min Grav udrekke, Din Røst mig hore lad, Opvæk mit Legem med, Og før det herliggjort Til de Udvaltes Sted!

As faithful shepherds of the Lord

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Third Sunday in Advent For the Epistle Lyrics: 1 As faithful shepherds of the Lord Must we accounted be, Who minister and teach the word With real sincerity. 2 No more the Lord himself requests Than to be just and true, And ever act as for the best As far as we do know. 3 Though we are oft reproach'd & blam'd When we do as we ought, But O! the truth can ne'er be sham'd Or to dishonor brought. 4 Our thoughts and actions all are known, To him who judgeth right; The Lord who knows whate'er is done Brings all things to the light. 5 O let us then with patience wait! And watch with humble pray'r, Till God, whose ways are just and straight, In righteousness appear. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 4:1-5
