All praise to thee, Eternal Lord
Author: Martin Luther Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 110 hymnals Topics: Christ Love and Grace of Lyrics: 1 All praise to thee, Eternal Lord,
Clothed in a garb of flesh and blood;
Choosing a manger for thy throne,
While worlds on worlds are thine alone.
2 Once did the skies before thee bow;
A Virgin's arms contain thee now:
Angels who did in thee rejoice
Now listen for thine infant voice.
3 A little Child, thou art our Guest,
That weary ones in thee may rest;
Forlorn and lowly is thy birth,
That we may rise to heav'n from earth.
4 Thou comest in the darksome night
To make us children of the light,
To make us, in the realms divine,
Like thine own angels round thee shine.
5 All this for us thy love hath done;
By this to thee our love is won:
For this we tune our cheerful lays,
And shout our thanks in ceaseless praise.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 11:28 Used With Tune: CANONBURY Text Sources: Tr. in Sabbath Hymn Book, 1858

How shall the young secure their hearts
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 477 hymnals Topics: Means of Grace Lyrics: 1 How shall the young secure their hearts,
And guard their lives from sin?
Thy Word the choicest rules imparts
To keep the conscience clean.
2 'Tis like the sun, a heavenly light
That guides us all the day,
And through the dangers of the night
A lamp to lead our way.
3 Thy precepts make me truly wise,
I hate the sinner's road;
I hate mine own vain thoughts that rise,
But love Thy law, my God.
4 Thy Word is everlasting truth;
How pure is every page!
That Holy Book shall guide our youth,
And well support our age.
Amen. Used With Tune: TIVERTON

Not What My Hands Have Done
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 119 hymnals Topics: Grace of God Lyrics: 1 Not what my hands have done
Can save my guilty soul;
Not what my toiling flesh has borne
Can make my spirit whole.
Not what I feel or do
Can give me peace with God;
Not all my prayers, and sighs, and tears
Can bear my awful load.
2 Thy grace alone, O God,
To me can pardon speak;
Thy power alone, O Son of God,
Can this sore bondage break.
No other work save Thine,
No other blood will do;
No strength save that which is divine
Can bear me safely through.
3 I bless the Christ of God;
I rest on love divine;
And with unfaltering lip and heart
I call this Saviour mine.
'Tis He that saveth me,
And freely pardon gives;
I love, because He loveth me;
I live, because He lives.
Amen. Used With Tune: LEOMINSTER

O God, My Faithful God
Author: Johann Heermann, 1585-1647; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Appears in 62 hymnals Topics: Full of Grace and Truth Lyrics: 1 O God, my faithful God,
true fountain ever flowing,
without whom nothing is,
all perfect gifts bestowing:
give me a healthy frame,
and may I have within
a conscience free from blame,
a soul unstained by sin.
2 Give me the strength to do
with ready heart and willing
whatever you command,
my calling here fulfilling--
to do it when I ought,
with all my strength; and bless
whatever I have wrought,
for you must give success.
3 Keep me from saying words
that later need recalling;
guard me, lest idle speech
may from my lips be falling;
but when, within my place,
I must and ought to speak,
then to my words give grace,
lest I offend the weak.
4 When dangers gather round,
oh, keep me calm and fearless;
help me to bear the cross
when life seems dark and cheerless;
help me, as you have taught,
to love both great and small,
and, by your Spirit's might,
to live at peace with all.
Scripture: Psalm 141:3 Used With Tune: DARMSTADT (WAS FRAG ICH NACH DER WELT) Text Sources: Tr. the editors of the Lutheran Book of Worship (1978), based on Winkworth's

Vainly through night's weary hours
O God, thou art my God alone
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Appears in 132 hymnals Topics: God Love and Grace of Lyrics: 1 O God, thou art my God alone;
early to thee my soul shall cry,
a pilgrim in a land unknown,
a thirsty land whose springs are dry.
2 Yet through this rough and thorny maze
I follow hard on thee, my God;
thy hand unseen upholds my ways;
I safely tread where thou hast trod.
3 Thee in the watches of the night
when I remember on my bed,
thy presence makes the darkness light;
thy guardian wings are round my head.
4 Better than life itself, thy love,
dearer than all beside to me,
for whom have I in heaven above,
or what on earth, compared with thee?
5 Praise with my heart, my mind, my voice,
for all thy mercy I will give;
my soul shall still in God rejoice;
my tongue shall bless thee while I live. Scripture: Psalm 63:1-8 Used With Tune: WAINWRIGHT
O God, thou art my God alone
