Before Jehovah's Aweful Throne
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748; John Wesley, 1703-1791 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 980 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah's aweful throne,
Ye nations bow with sacred joy;
Know that the Lord is God alone,
He can create, and he destroy.
2 His sovereign power without our aid,
Made us of clay, and formed us men;
And when, like wandering sheep, we strayed,
He brought us to his fold again.
3 We are his people, we his care,
Our souls, and all our mortal frame:
What lasting honors shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to thy Name?
4 We'll crowd your gates with thankful songs,
High as the heaven our voices raise;
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
Shall fill your courts with sounding praise.
5 Wide as the world is thy command,
Vast as eternity thy love;
Firm as a rock thy truth must stand,
When rolling years shall cease to move.
Amen.

Before Jehovah's Aweful Throne
O Father, Thou Who Givest All
Author: John Haynes Holmes Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 43 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Father, thou who givest all
The bounty of thy perfect love,
We thank thee that upon us fall
Such tender blessings from above.
2 We thank thee for the grace of home,
For mother's love and father's care;
For friends and teaches, all who come
Our joys and hopes and fears to share;
3 For eyes to see and ears to hear,
For hands to serve and arms to lift,
For shoulders broad and strong to bear,
For feet to run on errands swift.
4 For faith to conquer doubt and fear,
For love to answer every call,
For strength to do, and will to dare,
We thank thee, O thou Lord of all.
Amen. Topics: Gratitude Used With Tune: WINCHESTER NEW

Lo, God is here! let us adore
Author: John Wesley, 1703 - 91; Gerhard Tersteegen, 1697 - 1769 Appears in 293 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo, God is here! let us adore,
And own how dreadful is this place!
Let all within us feel his power,
And silent bow before his face;
Who know his power, his grace who prove,
Serve him with awe, with reverence love. A-men.
2 Lo, God is here! him day and night
United choirs of angels sing;
To him, enthroned above all height,
The hosts of heaven their praises bring;
Disdain not, Lord, our meaner song,
Who praise thee with a faltering tongue.
3 Being of beings, may our praise
Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill!
Still may we stand before thy face,
Still hear and do thy sovereign will;
To thee may all our thoughts arise
A true and ceaseless sacrifice.
Amen.

Life for winning souls

In lowly paths of service free;
Tell me thy secret; help me bear
The strain of toil, the fret of care.
2 Help me the slow of heart to move
By some clear winning word of love;
Teach me the wayward feet to stay,
And guide them in the homeward way.

In closer, dearer company,
In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
In trust that triumphs over wrong.
4 In hope that sends a shining ray
Far down the future's broadening way;
In peace that only thou canst give,
With thee, O Master, let me live! Used With Tune: WINCHESTER NEW

The Heavens Declare Thy Glory, Lord
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 601 hymnals First Line: The heav'ns declare Thy glory, Lord Lyrics: 1 The heav'ns declare Thy glory, Lord
In every star Thy wisdom shines;
But when our eyes behold Thy Word,
We read Thy name in fairer lines.
2 The rolling sun, the changing light,
And nights and days, Thy pow'r confess
But the blest volume Thou hast writ,
Reveals Thy justice and your grace
3 Great Sun of Righteousness, arise.
Bless the dark world with heav'nly light;
Thy gospel makes the simple wise,
Thy laws are pure, Thy judgments right.
4 Thy noblest wonders here we view
In souls renewed, and sins forgiv'n;
Lord, cleanse my sins, my soul renew,
And make Thy Word my guide to heav'n.

Jesus, I know, hath died for me
Author: Johann Andreas Rothe; John Wesley Appears in 33 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I know, hath died for me;
Here is my hope, my joy, my rest;
Hither, when hell assails, I flee,
I look into my Saviour's breast:
Away, sad doubt and anxious fear!
Mercy is all that's written there.
2 Though waves and storms go o'er my head,
Though strength, and health, and friends be gone;
Though joys be withered all and dead,
Though every comfort be withdrawn;
On this my steadfast soul relies,
Father, Thy mercy never dies.
3 Fixed on this ground will I remain,
Though my heart fail and strength decay;
This anchor shall my soul sustain,
When earth's foundations melt away.
Mercy's full power I then shall prove,
Loved with an everlasting love.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Faith Used With Tune: WINCHESTER NEW
