O God, My Faithful God

Author: Johann Heermann; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Appears in 64 hymnals Topics: Will of God; Will of God Lyrics: 1 O God, my faithful God, true fountain ever flowing, without whom nothing is, all perfect gifts bestowing: give me a healthy frame, and may I have within a conscience free from blame, a soul unstained by sin. 2 Give me the strength to do with ready heart and willing whatever you command, my calling here fulfilling. Help me do what I should in all that comes my way; I know that you are good, you bless those who obey. 3 Keep me from saying words that later need recalling; guard me lest idle speech may from my lips be falling; but when within my place I must and ought to speak, then to my words give grace lest I offend the weak. 4 When dangers gather round, O keep me calm and fearless; help me to bear the cross when life seems dark and cheerless. Help me, as you have taught, to love both great and small, and by your Spirit's might to live at peace with all. Scripture: Psalm 141:3 Used With Tune: DARMSTADT

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 59 hymnals Topics: Man a Saint Submission to the Will of God Lyrics: 1 Thy will be done! I will not fear The fate provided by Thy love; Though clouds and darkness shroud me here, I know that all is bright above. 2 The stars of heaven are shining on, Though these frail eyes are dimmed with tears; And hopes of earth indeed are gone, But are not ours th' immortal years? 3 Father! forgive the heart that clings, Thus trembling, to the things of time; And bid the soul, on angel wings, Ascend into a purer clime. 4 There shall no doubts disturb its trust, No sorrows dim celestial love; But these afflictions of the dust, Like shadows of the night, remove. 5 Even now, above, there's radiant day, While clouds and darkness brood below; Then, Father, joyful on my way To drink the bitter cup I go.
