How can I thank Thee, Lord

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #344 (1918) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 How can I thank Thee, Lord, For all Thy loving-kindness? Thou hast so long a time Had patience with my blindness, When dead in many sins And trespasses I lay, And kindled, holy God, Thine anger every day. 2 Lord, Thou hast shown to me Divine commiseration: I persevered in sin, But Thou in great compassion; I did resist Thee, Lord, Deferring to repent; Thou didst defer Thy wrath And instant punishment. 3 It is Thy work alone That I am now converted, Thy power o'er Satan's work In me Thou hast asserted; Thy mercy, that doth reach Unto the clouds, O Lord, Did break my stony heart By Thine own mighty Word. 4 Though able to offend Thee, Lord, by sin and failing, Still to regain Thy grace My strength was unavailing. Though I could fall from grace And choose the way of sin, I had no strength to rise, A new life to begin. 5 But Thou hast raised me up, And with divine compassion Hast shown me, Lord, the way That leadeth to salvation. I thank Thee, Lord, that now My former sins I hate, And freely--not from fear-- Dead works abominate. 6 That I may not backslide, But life in heaven inherit, Grant me, while here I live, O Lord, Thy holy Spirit, That He may give me strength In mine infirmity, And e'er renew my heart, To serve Thee willingly. 7 O guide and lead me, Lord, While here below I wander; Grant that I follow Thee, My Guide, and my Commander. For if I lead myself, I soon am led astray, But if Thou leadest me, I do my duty aye. 8 O Father, God of Love, Hear now my supplication! Lord Jesus, Son of God, O grant me Thy salvation! And Thou, O Holy Ghost, Always abide with me, That I may serve Thee here, And there eternally! Topics: Sanctification Languages: English

O God, Thou faithful God

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #346 (1918) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 O God, Thou faithful God, Thou Fount that ever flowest, Without whom nothing is, Whom all good gift bestowest, A pure and healthy frame O give me, and within A conscience free from blame, A soul unhurt by sin. 2 And grant me, Lord, to do, With ready heart and willing, Whate'er Thou shalt command: My calling here fulfilling; To do it when I ought, With all my strength; and bless The work I thus have wrought, For Thou must give success. 3 O let me never speak What bounds of truth exceedeth: Grant that no idle word From out my mouth proceedeth; And grant, when in my place I must and ought to speak, My words due power and grace; Nor let me wound the weak. 4 If dangers gather round, Still keep me calm and fearless; Help me to bear the cross, When life is dark and cheerless; Let me subdue my foe By words and actions kind; When counsel I would know, Good counsel let me find. 5 And let me with all men, As far as in me lieth, In peace and friendship live; And if thy gift supplieth Me wealth and honor fair, Then this refuse me not, That naught be mingled there Of goods unjustly got. 6 And if a longer life Be here on earth decreed me, And Thou through many a strife To age at last wilt lead me, Thy patience on me shed, Avert all sin and shame, And crown my hoary head With pure untarnished fame. 7 Let me depart this life Confiding in my Savior; Do Thou my soul receive, That it may live forever; And let my body have A quiet resting-place Beside a Christian's grave; And let it sleep in peace. 8 And on that solemn day When all the dead are waking, Stretch o'er my grave Thy hand, Thyself my slumbers breaking; Then let me hear Thy voice, Change Thou this earthly frame, And bid me aye rejoice With those who love Thy name.

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #347 (1918) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 O God, forsake me not! But lead, full of compassion, With loving hands Thy child, That I may gain salvation, When here my course is run; Be Thou my Light, my Lot, My Staff, my Rock, my Shield,-- O God, forsake me not! 2 O God, forsake me not! Take not Thy Spirit from me, And suffer not the might Of sin to overcome me; Increase my feeble faith, Which Thou Thyself hast wrought; Be Thou my Strength and Power-- O God, forsake me not! 3 O God, forsake me not! Lord, hear my supplication! In every evil hour Help me o’ercome temptation; And when the Prince of hell My conscience seeks to blot, Be Thou not far from me-- O God, forsake me not! 4 O God, forsake me not! Thy mercy I’m addressing; O Father, God of Love, Grant me Thy heavenly blessing To do the duty which To me Thou didst allot, To do what pleaseth Thee-- O God, forsake me not! 5 O God, forsake me not! Lord, I am Thine forever, Grant me true faith in Thee, Grant that I leave Thee never; Grant me a blessed end, When my good fight is fought, Help me in life and death-- O God, forsake me not!

Help me do what I should With all my might, and bless The outcome for my good, 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 in peace with all.
