There Is A Blessed Power

Author: J. C. Aaberg Hymnal: HCH11927 #191 (1927) Lyrics: 1 There is a blessed power That shields us from all woe, And like a mighty tower Protects us from the foe, It bids all trouble vanish And calms the stormy sea, It fear and grief shall banish And set from death us free. 2 It is the faith abiding In Jesus Christ, our Lord; It is the faith confiding In God's own blessed word. The heart can never falter That builds upon this rock Which stands, tho' times may alter, And foes around it flock. 3 By faith was Moses guided Unto the promised land And Israel provided With manna from God's hand; In want and tribulation, Exposed to fire and sword, God's children found salvation By faith in Christ, the Lord. 4 When shades of night inclose us And griefs our heart dismay, When foes with might oppose us And friends our trust betray, In trouble and vexation, We take the shield of faith And with this consolation We fight the pow'rs of death. 6 Arise, then, all believers! Lift high this mighty shield, The strongest arrow shivers Against its gleaming field, And ye shall walk protected From Satan's wiles and might Until in grace perfected Ye dwell with God in light.

Now I Have Found the Ground wherein

Author: J. A. Rothe Hymnal: HCH11927 #192 (1927) Lyrics: 1 Now I have found the ground wherein Sure my soul’s anchor may remain The wounds of Jesus, for my sin Before the world’s foundation slain; Whose mercy shall unshaken stay, When heaven and earth are fled away. 2 Father, Thine everlasting grace Our scanty tho't surpasses far, Thy heart still melts with tenderness, Thy arms of love still open are, Returning sinners to receive, That mercy they may taste and live. 3 O Love Thou bottomless abyss, My sins are swallowed up in Thee! Covered is my unrighteousness, Nor spot of guilt remains on me, While Jesus’ blood, thro' earth and skies Mercy, free, boundless mercy! cries. 4 With faith I plunge me in this sea, Here is my hope, my joy, my rest; Hither, when hell assails, I flee, I look into my Savior’s breast: Away, sad doubt and anxious fear! Mercy is all that’s written there. 5 Though waves and storms go o’er my head, Though strength, and health, and friends be gone, Though joys be withered all and dead, Though every comfort be withdrawn, On this my steadfast soul relies, Father, Thy mercy never dies! 6 Fixed on this ground will I remain, Though my heart fail and flesh decay; This anchor shall my soul sustain, When earth’s foundations melt away: Mercy’s full power I then shall prove, Loved with an everlasting love.

Rock Of Ages, Cleft For Me

Author: A. M. Toplady Hymnal: HCH11927 #193 (1927) Lyrics: 1 Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the perfect cure, Cleanse me, Lord, and make me pure. 2 Not the labors of my hands Can fulfill Thy law's demands; Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears forever flow, All for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and Thou alone. 3 Nothing in my hand I bring; Simply to Thy cross I cling; Naked, come to Thee for dress; Helpless, look to Thee for grace; Foul, I to the Fountain fly: Wash me, Savior, or I die! 4 While I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eyelids close in death, When I soar to worlds unknown, See Thee on Thy judgment throne; Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee!

Jesus, Thy Blood And Righteousness

Author: N. L. von Zinzendorf Hymnal: HCH11927 #194 (1927) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness My beauty are, my glorious dress; Midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed, With joy shall I lift up my head. 2 Bold shall I stand in Thy great day; For who aught to my charge shall lay? Fully absolved thro' these I am, From sin and fear, from guilt and shame. 3 The holy, meek, unspotted Lamb, Who from the Father's bosom came, Who died for me, sin to atone, Now as my Lord and God I own. 4 Lord, I believe Thy precious blood, Which at the mercy-seat of God For ever doth for sinners plead, For me, e'en for my soul was shed. 5 Lord, I believe, were sinners more Than sands upon the ocean shore, Thou hast for all a ransom paid, For all a full atonement made. 6 When from the dust of death I rise To claim my mansion in the skies, E'en then this shall be all my plea, Jesus hath lived, hath died for me!

Jesus, Lover Of My Soul

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: HCH11927 #195 (1927) Lyrics: 1 Jesus lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high; Hide me, O my Savior, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide, O receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none; Hangs my helpless soul on Thee; Leave, ah, leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me! All my trust on Thee is stayed; All my help from Thee I bring; Cover my defenseless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ! art all I want; More than all in Thee I find; Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind! Just and holy is Thy Name, I am all unrighteousness; False and full of sin I am, Thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin; Let the healing streams abound, Make and keep me pure within; Thou of life the Fountain art, Freely let me take of Thee; Spring Thou up within my heart! Rise to all eternity! Topics: Faith and Justification Languages: English Tune Title: [Jesus, lover of my soul]

Children Of God, Born Again Of His Spirit

Author: H. A. Brorson Hymnal: HCH11927 #198 (1927) Meter: 11.10.11.10.11.11 Lyrics: 1 Children of God, born again of His Spirit, Never we cease in His name to rejoice, Jesus believing, and sav'd by His merit, Come we to God with a jubilant voice. Let then each voice to the Father uplifted Widely proclaim that with grace we are gifted. 2 Evil by nature, and dead in transgression, Cold as a statue, and hard as a stone, This was our state when Thou, mov'd by compassion, Chose in Thy wisdom to call us Thine own. Led by Thy Spirit, and call'd by Thy favor, Heard we the life-giving voice of our Savior. 3 When we consider the tho'ts of our Father, As He elected us children by grace, Sending His Spirit with mercy to gather Us who had fallen and turn'd from His face, How can we help to be mode by His favor, And to acclaim Him our Father forever. 4 What can be charg'd to the Father's elected Whom He made just in Christ Jesus, our Lord, Here is sweet balsam for all the afflicted, Grace for the lost in His life-giving Word. Faith, passing thro' ev'ry fear of damnation, Found in the Savior the pledge of salvation. 5 Come, then, ye faithful, reborn of the Spirit, Know ye the mind of your Father above, Learn that He sav'd you alone by His merit, Taking you into His bosom of love. Children, who into His bosom do gather, Bless Him, and thank Him, acclaim Him your Father. Topics: Faith and Justification Languages: English Tune Title: [Children of God, born again of His Spirit]

In God, My Savior

Hymnal: HCH11927 #199 (1927) Lyrics: 1 In God, my Savior, I put my trust alone; His word and favor My help in need I own; My life I tender, And all I have as well, In full surrender To Thee, who grace I tell, My soul's befriender, My God, Immanuel. 2 The loss sin wrought me, Thro' Satan's wiles, O Lord, Thou, who hast bought me, Hast all by grace restored: My thanks I render, Myself to Thee I yield, My Savior tender, My rock, my sun and shield, My soul's defender, On Thee my hopes I build. 3 Keep me Thy servant, Let me obey Thee, Lord, In spirit fervent, According to Thy word; When doth forsake me The frowning world for aye. And suff'rings shake me, Grant patience, be my stay, Until Thou take me From this ill world away. 4 My consolation Thou art in ev'ry need, For my salvation Thou on the cross didst bleed; In heaven dwelling, I shall, when past all pain, Thy praise be telling, O Lamb for sinners slain! When, anthems swelling, I sing the angels' strain. 5 O faithful Savior, My sweetest rest and stay! O let me never From Thee in darkness stray! My soul deliver, And guide Thy weary dove, By grace and favor, Home to the place I love My home forever Jerusalem above. 6 There, past life's sadness, 'Tis good to be at rest, In joy and gladness, With saints forever blest; Lord, let me ever Walk in Thy faith and fear, That, past death's river, I may Thy welcome hear: "Come, blest forever, Come in, my servant dear!"
