To us no harm shall now come nigh, The strife at last is ended; God showeth His good will to men, And peace shall reign on earth again: Oh, thank Him for His goodness! 2 We praise, we worship Thee, we trust, And give Thee thanks for ever, O Father, that Thy rule is just And wise, and changes never; Thy boundless power o'er all things reigns, Thou dost whate'er Thy will ordains; Well for us that Thou rulest! 3 O Jesus Christ, our God and Lord. Son of the heavenly Father, O Thou who hast our peace restored, And thy lost sheep dost gather, Thou Lamb of God, to Thee on high Out of the depths we sinners cry, Have mercy on us, Jesus! 4 O Holy Ghost, Thou precious Gift, Thou Comforter unfailing, O'er Satan's snares our souls uplift, And let Thy power availing Avert our woes and calm our dread: For us the Saviour's blood was shed: We trust in Thee to save us.

Ye Simple Souls Who Stray

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707–1788 Appears in 66 hymnals Topics: Holy Ghost Lyrics: 1. Ye simple souls who stray Far from the path of peace, That lonely, unfrequented way To life and happiness, Why will ye folly love, And throng the downward road, And hate the wisdom from above, And mock the sons of God? 2. Madness and misery Ye count our life beneath, And nothing great or good can see Or glorious in our death. But thru the Holy Ghost We witness better things, For he whose blood is all our boast Has made us priests and kings. 3. Riches unsearchable In Jesus’ love we know, And pleasures springing from the well Of life our souls o’erflow. As we seek heav’nly bliss, Angels our steps attend, And God himself our Father is, And Jesus is our Friend. 4. With him we walk in white; We in his image shine; Our robes are robes of glorious light, Our righteousness divine. On all the kings of earth With pity we look down And claim, in virtue of our birth, A never-fading crown. Scripture: Revelation 1:5-6 Used With Tune: [Ye simple souls who stray]

Be all Thy graces now outpoured On the believer's mind and soul, To strengthen, save, and make us whole. 2 Lord, by the brightness of Thy light, Thou in the faith dost men unite Of every land and every tongue: This to Thy praise, O Lord, be sung. 3 Thou Strong Defence, Thou holy Light, Teach us to know our God aright, And call Him Father from the heart: The Word of life and truth impart, 4 That we may not love doctrines strange, Nor e'er to other teachers range, But Jesus for our Master own, And put our trust in Him alone. 5 Thou Sacred Ardor, Comfort sweet, Help us to wait with ready feet And willing heart at Thy command, Nor trial fright us from Thy band. 6 Lord, may Thy power prepare each heart, To our weak nature strength impart, That as good warriors we may force, Thro' life and death, to Thee our course!
