Oh, Happy is the Man who Hears!
My God, accept my heart this day
Author: Matthew Bridges, 1800-1894 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 263 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My God, accept my heart this day,
and make it always thine,
that I from thee no more may stray,
no more from thee decline.
2 Before the cross of him who died,
behold, I prostrate fall;
let every sin be crucified,
and Christ be all in all.
3 Anoint me with thy heavenly grace,
and seal me for thine own;
that I may see thy glorious face,
and worship near thy throne.
4 Let every thought and work and word
to thee be ever given:
Then life shall be thy service, Lord,
and death the gate of heaven.
*5 All glory to the Father be,
all glory to the Son,
all glory, Holy Ghost, to thee,
while endless ages run. Topics: Baptism and Confirmation; Fourth Sunday Before Lent Year A; Proper 17 Year B Scripture: Colossians 3:11 Used With Tune: ST PETER
My God, accept my heart this day
Lord, Thou Hast Been Our Dwelling Place
Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, Thou has been our dwelling place
In generations all,
Before Thou ever hadst brought forth
The mountains great or small;
2 Ere ever Thou hadst formed the earth,
And all the world abroad;
Ev'n Thou from everlasting art
To everlasting God.
3 A thousand years do yet appear
No more before Thy sight
Than yesterday when it is past,
Or than a watch by night.
4 As with an overflowing flood
Thou sweepest them away;
They are as sleep and as the grass
That grows at morn are they.
5 All our iniquities Thou dost
Before Thy presence place,
And set our secfet [sic] faults before
The brightness of Thy face.
6 For in Thine anger all our days
Pass onward to an end;
And as a tale that hath been told
So all our years we spend.
7 Three-score and ten years are the sum
Of all the days we see;
Or if by reason of more strength
In some four-score they be.
8 Who knows the power of Thy wrath?
According to Thy fear
So is Thy wrath; Lord, teach Thou us
Our end in mind to bear,
9 And so to count our days that we
Our hearts may still apply
To learn Thy wisdom and Thy truth,
That we may live thereby. Topics: Book One: Hymns, Songs, Chorales; Psalms Scripture: Psalm 90 Used With Tune: ST. PETER Text Sources: Anonymous Psalter

O God Of Jacob, By Whose Hand
Author: Philip Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 61 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God of Jacob, by whose hand
Thy people still are fed;
Who, thro' this weary pilgrimage,
Hast all our fathers led!
2 To Thee our humble vows we raise,
To Thee address our prayer;
And in Thy kind and faithful breast
Deposit all our care.
3 Thro' each perplexing path of life
Our wand'ring footsteps guide;
Give us each day our daily bread
And raiment fit provide.
4 O spread Thy cov'ring wings around
Till all our wand'rings cease
And at our Father's loved abode
Our souls arrive in peace!
5 To Thee, as to our cov'nant God,
We our whole selves resign,
And thankful own that all we are
And all we have is Thine.
Amen.

O God Of Jacob, By Whose Hand
There Is a Land of Pure Delight
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,423 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign;
Eternal day excludes the night,
And pleasures banish pain.
2 There everlasting spring abides,
And never with'ring flow'rs:
Death, like a narrow sea, divides
This heav'nly land from ours.
3 Sweet fields, beyond the swelling flood,
Stand dressed in living green:
So to the Jews old Canaan stood,
While Jordan rolled between.
4 But timorous mortals start and shrink
To cross this narrow sea,
And linger, shivering on the brink,
And fear to launch away.
5 O could we make our doubts remove,
Those gloomy thoughts that rise,
And see the Canaan that we love
With unbeclouded eyes!
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
And view the landscape o’er,
Not Jordan’s stream, nor death’s cold flood,
Should fright us from the shore.
Amen. Topics: Last Things Heaven Used With Tune: ST. PETER

Come, let us to the Lord our God
Author: Dr. J. Morison, 1749-1798 Appears in 108 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, let us to the Lord our God
With contrite hearts return;
Our God is gracious, nor will leave
The desolate to mourn.
2 His voice commands the tempest forth,
And stills the stormy wave;
His arm, though it be strong to smite,
Is also strong to save.
3 Long hath the sight of sorrow reigned;
The dawn shall bring us light;
God shall appear, and we shall rise
With gladness in His sight.
4 Our hearts, if God we seek to know,
Shall know Him and rejoice;
His coming like the morn shall be,
Like morning songs His voice.
5 As dew upon the tender herb,
Diffusing fragrance round;
As showers that usher in the spring,
And cheer the thirsty ground;
6 So shall His presence bless our souls,
And shed a joyful light;
That hallowed morn shall chase away
The sorrows of the night. Topics: Backsliding Return from; Sinners Contrite; Backsliding Return from; Sinners Contrite; Contrition; The Christian Life The Inner Life; Dew, the Holy Spirit as; Presence, of Christ Of God; Heart Contrite; Holy Spirit Dew Used With Tune: ST. PETER
