We Gather Together
Author: Theodore Baker Meter: Irregular Appears in 228 hymnals Topics: God the Father, Creator Thanksgiving First Line: We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing Lyrics: 1 We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing;
He chastens and hastens His will to make known.
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing.
Sing praises to His name, He forgets not His own.
2 Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine;
so from the beginning the fight we were winning;
Thou, Lord, wast at our side, all glory be Thine!
3 We all do extol Thee, Thou leader triumphant,
and pray that Thou still our defender wilt be.
Let Thy congregation escape tribulation;
Thy name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free! Scripture: Deuteronomy 31:6-8 Used With Tune: KREMSER Text Sources: Nederlandtsch Gedenckclanck, 1626

O Thou in Whose Presence
Author: Joseph Swain Meter: 11.8.11.8 Appears in 507 hymnals Topics: God the Father, Creator Praise First Line: O Thou in whose presence my soul takes delight Lyrics: 1 O Thou in whose presence my soul takes delight,
on whom in affliction I call,
my comfort by day, and my song in the night,
my hope, my salvation, my all!
2 Where dost Thou, dear Shepherd, resort with Thy sheep,
to feed them in pastures of love?
Say, why in the valley of death should I weep,
or alone in this wilderness rove?
3 Restore, my dear Savior, the light of Thy face;
Thy soul-cheering comfort impart;
and let the sweet tokens of pardoning grace
bring joy to my desolate heart.
4 He looks! and ten thousands of angels rejoice,
and myriads wait for His word;
He speaks! and eternity, filled with His voice,
re-echoes the praise of the Lord.
5 Dear Shepherd, I hear and will follow Thy call;
I know the sweet sound of Thy voice;
restore and defend me, for Thou art my all;
in Thee I will ever rejoice.

O Love, How Deep
Author: Benjamin Webb Appears in 144 hymnals Topics: God the Father, Creator God's Love First Line: O love how deep, how broad, how high Lyrics: 1 O love, how deep, how broad, how high,
it fills the heart with ecstasy,
that God, the Son of God, should take
our mortal form for mortals' sake.
For us baptized, for us He bore
His holy fast and hungered sore,
for us temptations sharp He knew;
for us the tempter overthrew.
2 For us He prayed; for us He taught;
for us His daily works He wrought;
by words and signs and actions thus
Still seeking not Himself but us.
For us to evil pow'r betrayed,
scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed,
He bore the shameful cross and death,
for us gave up His dying breath.
3 For us He rose from death again;
for us He went on high to reign;
for us He sent His Spirit here,
to guide, to strengthen, and to cheer.
All glory to our Lord and God
for love so deep, so high, so broad;
the Trinity whom we adore,
forever and forevermore.

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Author: Robert Robinson Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2,294 hymnals Topics: God the Father, Creator Praise First Line: Come, Thou Fount of ev'ry blessing Lyrics: 1 Come, Thou Fount of ev'ry blessing;
tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
streams of mercy, never ceasing,
call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it,
mount of Thy redeeming love.
2 Here I raise my Ebenezer;
hither by Thy help I’m come;
and I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
wand'ring from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
interposed His precious blood.
3 O to grace how great a debtor
daily I’m constrained to be!
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,
bind my wand'ring heart to Thee.
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
prone to leave the God I love;
here’s my heart, O take and seal it,
seal it for Thy courts above. Scripture: 1 Samuel 7:12 Used With Tune: NETTLETON
Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
