Delight in God

Author: Ryland, junior Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 243 hymnals Topics: The Graces of the Holy Spirit Love to God First Line: O Lord, I would delight in thee Lyrics: 1 O Lord, I would delight in thee, And on thy care depend; To thee in every trouble flee, My best, my only friend. 2 When all created streams are dry'd, Thy fulness is the same; May I with this be satisfy'd, And glory in thy name! 3 Why should the soul a drop bemoan Who has a fountain near, A fountain which will ever run With waters sweet and clear? 4 No good in creatures can be found, But all is found in thee; I must have all things, and abound, While God is God to me. 5 O that I had a stronger faith To look within the veil, To credit what my savior saith, Whose word can never fail! 6 He that has made my heaven secure Will here all good provide: While Christ is rich can I be poor, Who ma his much lov'd bride? 7 O Lord, I cast my care on thee, I triumph and adore; Henceforth my great concern shall be To love and please thee more. Scripture: Psalm 37:4

God, We've Known Such Grief and Anger

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Grace of God First Line: God, we've know such grief and anger Lyrics: God, we've known such grief and anger As we've heard your people cry. We have asked you, "How much longer?" We have sadly wondered, "Why?" In this world of so much suffering, May we hear your word anew: "I will never leave you orphaned; I will not abandon you." By your grace comes resurrection; By your love, you cast out fear. You give strength and sure direction As we seek to serve you here. You give comfort to the grieving, And you bless the ones who mourn. May we trust in you, believing Out of chaos, hope is born. Hope is ours for, God, you love us! You have claimed us by your grace. And through Jesus, you have called us To bring hope to every place. In each rescue worker's caring, In each faithful volunteer, In each Christian's love and sharing, God, we glimpse your kingdom here. Scripture: 1 John 4:7-8 Used With Tune: IN BABILONE

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe; His craft and pow'r are great, And, armed with cruel hate, On earth is not his equal. 2 Did we in our own strength confide, Our striving would be losing; Were not the right One on our side, The One of God's own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He, Lord Sabaoth His name, From age to age the same, And He must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us, We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us. The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him; His rage we can endure, For lo! his doom is sure, One little word shall fell him. 4 That word above all earthly pow'rs, No thanks to them, abideth; The Spirit and the gifts are ours Through Him who with us sideth; Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also; The body they may kill, God's truth abideth still, His kingdom is forever. Scripture: Psalm 46 Used With Tune: EIN' FESTE BURG

Do I indulge some unknown sin? O turn my feet whene'er I stray, And lead me in thy perfect way. Scripture: Psalm 139

Thine eyes did all my limbs survey, Which yet in dark confusion lay; Thou saw'st the daily growth they took, Formed by the model of thy book. By thee my growing parts were named, And what thy sovereign counsels framed- The breathing lungs, the beating heart- Was copied with unerring art. At last, to show my Maker's name, God stamped his image on my frame, And in some unknown moment joined The finished members to the mind. There the young seeds of thought began, And all the passions of the man: Great God, our infant nature pays Immortal tribute to thy praise. Lord, since in my advancing age I've acted on life's busy stage, Thy thoughts of love to me surmount The power of numbers to recount. I could survey the ocean o'er, And count each sand that makes the shore, Before my swiftest thoughts could trace The num'rous wonders of thy grace. These on my heart are still impressed, With these I give my eyes to rest; And at my waking hour I find God and his love possess my mind. Scripture: Psalm 139
