If Thou but Trust in God to Guide Thee
Author: Georg Neumark; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Glory to God #816 (2013) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Topics: Living and Dying in Christ Lyrics: 1 If thou but trust in God to guide thee,
with hopeful heart through all thy ways,
God will give strength, whate'er betide thee,
to bear thee through the evil days.
Who trusts in God's unchanging love
builds on the rock that nought can move.
2 Only be still, and wait God's leisure
in cheerful hope, with heart content
to take whate'er thy Keeper's pleasure
and all-discerning love hath sent.
No doubt our inmost wants are clear
to One who holds us always dear.
3 Sing, pray, and swerve not from God's ways,
but do thine own part faithfully.
Trust the rich promises of grace;
so shall they be fulfilled in thee.
God never yet forsook at need
the soul secured by trust indeed. Scripture: Deuteronomy 31:8 Languages: English Tune Title: WER NUR DEN LIEBEN GOTT
If Thou but Trust in God to Guide Thee
By Gracious Powers
Author: Dietrich Bonhoeffer; Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Glory to God #818 (2013) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Living and Dying in Christ First Line: By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered Lyrics: 1 By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered,
and confidently waiting, come what may,
we know that God is with us night and morning
and never fails to greet us each new day.
2 Yet is this heart by its old foe tormented,
still evil days bring burdens hard to bear;
O give our frightened souls the sure salvation
for which, O Lord, you taught us to prepare.
3 And when this cup you give is filled to brimming
with bitter suffering, hard to understand,
we take it thankfully and without trembling,
out of so good and so beloved a hand.
4 Yet when again in this same world you give us
the joy we had, the brightness of your sun,
we shall remember all the days we lived through,
and our whole life shall then be yours alone.
Scripture: Psalm 116:13 Languages: English Tune Title: INTERCESSOR

Jesus, Priceless Treasure
Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Glory to God #830 (2013) Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Topics: Living and Dying in Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure,
source of purest pleasure,
truest friend to me;
ah, how long I’ve panted,
and my heart has fainted,
thirsting, Lord, for thee!
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb:
nothing in the world can hide thee;
naught I ask beside thee.
2 In thine arm I rest me;
foes who would oppress me
cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
every heart be quaking,
Jesus calms my fear;
lightnings flash and thunders crash:
yet, though sin and hell assail me,
Jesus will not fail me.
3 Hence, all fears and sadness!
For the Lord of gladness,
Jesus, enters in:
God, who dearly loves us,
from all trial saves us;
gives sweet peace within;
I have borne this worldly scorn;
still in thee lies purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless treasure!
Scripture: Deuteronomy 33:27 Languages: English Tune Title: JESU, MEINE FREUDE
Jesus, Priceless Treasure
O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go
Author: George Matheson Hymnal: Glory to God #833 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8.6 Topics: Living and Dying in Christ Lyrics: 1 O Love that wilt not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
that in thine ocean depths its flow
may richer, fuller be.
2 O Light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to thee;
my heart restores its borrowed ray,
that in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
may brighter, fairer be.
3 O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
and feel the promise is not vain
that morn shall tearless be.
4 O Cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be. Scripture: 2 Samuel 22:29 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MARGARET
O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go
Abide with Me
Author: Henry Francis Lyte Hymnal: Glory to God #836 (2013) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Living and Dying in Christ First Line: Abide with me; fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide.
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim; its glories pass away;
change and decay in all around I see.
O thou who changest not, abide with me.
3 I need thy presence every passing hour;
what but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
4 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless;
ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me.
5 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes;
shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Scripture: Psalm 23:4 Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE
Abide with Me

My Faith Looks Up to Thee
Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: Glory to God #829 (2013) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Topics: Living and Dying in Christ Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to thee,
thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior divine!
Now hear me while I pray;
take all my guilt away;
O let me from this day
be wholly thine!
2 May thy rich grace impart
strength to my fainting heart,
my zeal inspire;
as thou hast died for me,
O may my love to thee
pure, warm, and changeless be,
a living fire!
3 While life's dark maze I tread
and griefs around me spread,
be thou my guide;
bid darkness turn to day;
wipe sorrow's tears away;
nor let me ever stray
from thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream,
when death's cold, sullen stream
shall o'er me roll;
blest Savior, then, in love,
fear and distrust remove;
O bear me safe above,
a ransomed soul! Scripture: Psalm 73:24 Languages: English Tune Title: OLIVET
