All My Hope on God Is Founded
Author: Joachim Neander; Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.7 Appears in 72 hymnals Topics: God Beyond All Name and Form Providence and Care Lyrics: 1 All my hope on God is founded,
who does still my trust renew.
Safe through change and chance God guides me,
ever faithful, ever true.
God unknown,
God alone,
seeks to claim my heart as home.
2 Human pride and earthly glory,
sword and crown betray our trust;
though with care and toil we build them,
tower and temple, fall to dust.
But God's power,
hour by hour,
is my temple and my tower.
3 But in every time and season,
out of love's abundant store,
God sustains the whole creation
fount of life forevermore.
We who share
earth and air
count on God's unfailing care. Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:17 Used With Tune: NEANDER

Commit Thou All Thy Griefs
Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 245 hymnals Topics: God's Providential Care Lyrics: 1 Commit thou all thy griefs
And ways into His hands,
To His sure truth and tender care,
Who earth and heaven commands.
2 Who points the clouds their course,
Whom winds and seas obey,
He shall direct thy wandering feet,
He shall prepare thy way.
3 Thou on the Lord rely,
So safe, shalt thou go on;
Fix on His work thy steadfast eye,
So shall thy work be done.
4 No profit canst thou gain
By self-consuming care;
To Him commend thy cause, His ear
Attends the softest prayer.
5 Thy everlasting truth,
Father, Thy ceaseless love,
Sees all Thy children's wants, and knows
What best for each will prove.
6 Thou everywhere hast sway,
And all things serve Thy might,
Thy every act pure blessing is,
Thy path unsullied light.
AMEN. Used With Tune: SCHUMANN

I Sing the Mighty Power of God
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 476 hymnals Topics: God's Care Lyrics: 1 I sing the mighty power of God,
That made the mountains rise;
That spread the flowing seas abroad,
And built the lofty skies.
I sing the wisdom that ordained
The sun to rule the day;
The moon shines full at thy command,
And all the stars obey.
2 I sing the goodness of our God,
That filled the earth with food;
That formed the creatures with a word,
And then pronounced them good.
God, how thy wonders are displayed,
Wherever I turn my eye:
If I survey the ground I tread,
Or gaze upon the sky!
3 There's not a plant or flower below,
But makes thy glories known;
And clouds arise, and tempests blow,
By thy great power alone;
While all that borrows life from thee
Is ever in thy care,
Wherever humankind can be,
Thou, God, art present there. Used With Tune: ELLACOMBE Text Sources: Divine Songs, 1715

I Want a Principle Within
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 14.14.14.14 Appears in 228 hymnals Topics: Carefulness First Line: I want a principle within of watchful, godly fear Lyrics: 1 I want a principle within of watchful, godly fear,
A sensibility of sin, a pain to feel it near.
I want the first approach to feel of pride or wrong desire,
To catch the wand’ring of my will, and quench the kindling fire.
2 From Thee that I no more may stray, no more Thy goodness grieve,
Grant me the filial awe, I pray, the tender conscience give.
Quick as the apple of an eye, O God, my conscience make;
Awake my soul when sin is nigh, and keep it still awake.
3 Almighty God of truth and love, to me Thy pow’r impart;
The mountain from my soul remove, the hardness from my heart.
Oh, may the least omission pain my reawakened soul,
And drive me to that blood again, which makes the wounded whole Scripture: Ephesians 4:30 Used With Tune: GERALD Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/I_Want_a_Principle_Within)

O words with heav'nly comfort fraught!

He leadeth me, He leadeth me,
By His own hand He leadeth me:
His faithful foll'wer I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.
2 Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom,
By waters still, o'er troubled sea,
Still 'tis His hand that leadeth me! [Chorus]
3 Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine,
Content, whatever lot I see,
Since 'tis my God that leadeth me! [Chorus]
4 And when my task on earth is done,
When, by Thy grace the vict'ry's won,
E'en death's cold wave I will not flee,
Since God through Jordan leadeth me. [Chorus]

More than life to me,
Whom have I on earth beside thee?
Whom in heav'n but Thee? [Chorus] Used With Tune: PASS ME NOT
