We feel thy awful chast'ning rod

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Particular Occasions and Circumstances Public and National Blessings and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 We feel thy awful chast'ning rod, Thy sovereign justice we adore; Yet we approach thy feet, O God, Thy boundless mercy to implore. 2 Teach us to mourn for all our guilt; May reformation fill the land; No more may human blood be spilt, But love and joy each heart expand. 3 To thee, O Lord, to thee alone, We look for help, while drown'd in tears. Send down salvation from thy throne; Subdue our hearts, remove our fears. 4 Unite our souls to trust thy grace; Portentous, angry clouds dispel; Let party-feuds no more have place, Nor tongues be "set on fire of hell." 5 May the kind spirit of thy Son Preside and rule in ev'ry soul; That wars may cease, thy will be done, And praise resound from pole to pole.

Once to Every Man and Nation

Author: James Russell Lowell, 1819-1891 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 208 hymnals Topics: Courage; Justice; Memorial Occasions; Nation; Truth; Service Lyrics: 1 Once to ev'ry man and nation Comes the moment to decide, In the strife of truth and falsehood, For the good or evil side; Some great cause, God's new messiah, Off'ring each the bloom or blight, And the choice goes by forever 'Twixt that darkness and that light. 2 By the light of burning martyrs, Jesus' bleeding feet I track, Toiling up new Calv'ries ever With the cross that turns not back; New occasions teach new duties, Time makes ancient good uncouth; They must upward still and onward, Who would keep abreast of truth. 3 Though the cause of evil prosper, Yet the truth alone is strong, Truth forever on the scaffold, Wrong forever on the throne. Yet that scaffold sways the future, And, behind the dim unknown, Standeth God within the shadow Keeping watch above His own. Scripture: 1 Kings 18:21 Used With Tune: EBENEZER

Amen. Used With Tune: DUKE STREET
