would we claim glory, but for you alone,
because of your great love and faithfulness,
the steadfast care that makes your presence known.
2 The worldly say of us: "Where is their God?"
They vainly look for what they idolize,
for flaunted wealth, for burnished images,
and trim all gods to their own shape and size.
3 But we will trust in God, our help and shield,
transcendent Life on whom all lives depend,
whose untold mercies give our spirits voice
to bless the Lord in songs that never end.

Now to the power of God supreme
Be everlasting honors giv'n;
He saves from hell, (we bless his name,)
He calls our wand'ring feet to heav'n.
Not for our duties or deserts,
But of his own abounding grace,
He works salvation in our hearts,
And forms a people for his praise.
'Twas his own purpose that begun
To rescue rebels doomed to die;
He gave us grace in Christ his Son
Before he spread the starry sky.
Jesus the Lord appears at last,
And makes his Father's counsels known;
Declares the great transactions past,
And brings immortal blessings down.
He dies, and in that dreadful night
Did all the powers of hell destroy;
Rising, he brought our heav'n to light,
And took possession of the joy.
Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:9-10

How oft have sin and Satan strove
To rend my soul from thee, my God!
But everlasting is thy love,
And Jesus seals it with his blood.
The oath and promise of the Lord
Join to confirm the wondrous grace;
Eternal power performs the word,
And fills all heav'n with endless praise.
Amidst temptations sharp and long,
My soul to this dear refuge flies;
Hope is my anchor, firm and strong,
While tempests blow and billows rise.
The gospel bears my spirit up;
A faithful and unchanging God
Lays the foundation for my hope
In oaths, and promises, and blood.
Scripture: Hebrews 6:17-19
How oft have sin and Satan strove
Mistaken souls! that dream of heaven
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 184 hymnals Topics: Prayer heard; Providence in air, earth, and sea; God his being, attributes, and providence; Gentiles church; Blessings of the country; God of nature and grace; Praise and prayer public; Praise for rain; Prayer and praise, public; Psalm for husbandmen; Public prayer and praise; Rain from heaven; Seasons of the year; Spring and summer; Spring of the year; Summer; Weather Lyrics:
Mistaken souls, that dream of heav'n,
And make their empty boast
Of inward joys, and sins forgiv'n,
While they are slaves to lust!
Vain are our fancies, airy flights,
If faith be cold and dead;
None but a living power unites
To Christ the living head.
'Tis faith that changes all the heart;
'Tis faith tbat works by love;
That bids all sinful joys depart,
And lifts the thoughts above.
'Tis faith that conquers earth and hell
By a celestial power;
This is the grace that shall prevail
In the decisive hour.
[Faith must obey her Father's will,
As well as trust his grace;
A pard'ning God is jealous still
For his own holiness.]
When from the curse he sets us free,
He makes our natures clean;
Nor would he send his Son to be
The minister of sin.
[His Spirit purifies our frame,
And seals our peace with God;
Jesus and his salvation came
By water and by blood.]
Scripture: Psalm 65
Mistaken souls! that dream of heaven
The heavens declare his glory
