Praise thou the Lord, the omnipotent Monarch of Glory

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a361 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Praise thou the Lord, the omnipotent Monarch of Glory; Join in, my soul, with the heavenly choir in their story; Come and partake; Psalt'ry and harp also wake: Sing the Creator's great glory! 2 Praise thou the Lord, who e'er ruleth and guideth all surely; Over life's pathway, so fearful, He leads thee securely; Ever He sends Mercies and blessings and friends; Then from thy heart thank Him truly. 3 Praise thou the Lord, who hath fearfully, wondrously made thee, Health has vouchsafed, and when heedlessly falling hath stayed thee; Fainting and weak, When not a word thou couldst speak, Wings of His mercy did shade thee. 4 Praise thou the Lord, who thy life hath so visibly guided, Streams of free grace, in His Son, for thy sin hath provided; Plain to thy view, God, the Almighty and True, Ne'er from His child is divided. 5 Praise thou the Lord, and forget all His benefits never; Swell the loud chorus, ye chosen, till broad as a river Upward it stream; Soul, O forget not this theme: Praise Him, O praise Him forever.

Sing praise to God who reigns above

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a365 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God who reigns above, The God of all creation, The God of power, the God of love, The God of our salvation; With healing balm my soul He fills, And every pain and sorrow stills: To God all praise and glory! 2 The angel host, O King of kings, Thy praise forever telling, In earth and sky all living things Beneath Thy shadow dwelling, Adore the wisdom which could span, And power which formed, Creation's plan: To God all praise and glory! 3 What God's almighty power hath made, His gracious mercy keepeth; By morning dawn or evening shade, His watchful eye ne'er sleepeth; Within the kingdom of His might, Lo, all is just and all is right: To God all praise and glory! 4 I cried to God in my distress, His mercy heard me calling; My Savior saw my helplessness And kept my feet from falling; For this, Lord, praise and thanks to Thee! Praise God, I say, praise God with me! To God all praise and glory! 5 When every earthly hope has flown From sorrow's sons and daughters, Our Father from His heavenly throne, Beholds the troubled waters; And at His Word the storm is stayed, Which made His children's heart afraid; To God all praise and glory! 6 Thus all my pilgrimage along I'll sing aloud Thy praises, That men may hear the grateful song My voice unwearied raises: Be joyful in the Lord, my heart! Both soul and body, bear your part: To God all praise and glory! Languages: English

When all Thy mercies, O my God

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a369 (1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 When all Thy mercies, O my God, My rising soul surveys, Transported with the view, I'm lost In wonder, love, and praise. 2 Unnumbered comforts to my soul Thy tender care bestowed, Before my infant heart conceived from whom those comforts flowed. 3 When in the slippery paths of youth With heedless steps I ran, Thine arm, unseen, conveyed me safe, And led me up to man. 4 Ten thousand, thousand precious gifts My daily thanks employ; Nor is the least a cheerful heart That tastes those gifts with joy. 5 Through every period of my life Thy goodness I'll pursue; And after death, in distant worlds The glorious theme renew. 6 Through all eternity, to Thee A grateful song I'll raise; But oh! eternity's too short to utter all Thy praise.

Abide with me, fast falls the eventide

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a440 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Abide with me! fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me! 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see. O Thou who changes not, abide with me! 3 Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word, But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord, Familiar, condescending, patient, free, Come, not to sojourn, but abide with me. 4 Come not in terrors as the King of kings, But kind and good, with healing on Thy wings; Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea; O Friend of sinners, thus abide with me! 5 Thou on my head in early youth didst smile, And, though rebellious and perverse meanwhile, Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee: On to the close, O Lord, abide with me! 6 I need Thy presence every passing hour: What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me! 7 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless: Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me! 8 Hold Thou Thy Cross before my closing eyes, Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies: Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!

Delay not, delay not, O sinner, draw near

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a378 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Delay not, delay not, O sinner, draw near, The ruers of life are now flowing for thee: No price is demanded, the Savior is here; Redemption is purchased, salvation is free. 2 Delay not, dely not, why longer abuse The love and compassion of Jesus, thy God? A fountain is opened; how canst thou refuse To wash and be cleansed in His pardoning blood? 3 Delay not, delay not, the Spirit of grace, Long grieved and resisted, may take His sad flight, And leave thee in darkness to finish thy race, To sink in the vale of eternity's night.

He that goeth forth with weeping

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a393 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 He that goeth forth with weeping, Sowing precious seed in love, Never tiring, never sleeping, Findeth blessing from above. 2 Soft descend the dews of heaven, Bright the rays celestial shine; Precious fruits will thus be given Through an influence all divine. 3 Sow thy seed, be never weary, Let no fears thy soul annoy; Be the prospect ne’er so dreary, Thou shalt reap the fruits in joy. 4 God but uses thee as sower, Puts the seed into thy hand; Sow thou then, let Him be Mower, Till thou reap in fatherland.

In God, my faithful God

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a413 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 In God, my faithful God, I trust when dark my road; Though many woes o’ertake me, Yet He will not forsake me; His love it is doth send them, And when ’tis best will end them. 2 My sins assail me sore, But I despair no more; I build on Christ who loves me, From this Rock nothing moves me, Since I can all surrender To Him, my soul’s Defender. 3 If death my portion be, Then death is gain to me, And Christ my Life for ever, From whom death cannot sever; Come when it may, He’ll shield me, To Him I'll wholly yield me. 4 'So be it,' then I say, With all my heart each day; Guide us while here we wander, Till safely landed yonder, We too, dear Lord, adore Thee, And sing for joy before Thee.

My faith securely buildeth

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a414 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 My faith securely buildeth On Christ who shed His blood; This, and this only, yieldeth The true eternal good. The life that my soul liveth, Finds nothing on the earth; What Christ, the Savior, giveth Of all our love is worth. 2 No angel, nought that gladdens, No throne nor majesty, No love, nor aught that saddens, No grief nor misery, Nor aught that man discovers, Now be it small or great, From Thee, my heavenly Lover's Embrace can separate. 3 My heart with joy is springing, And sad I cannot be; 'Tis full of joy and singing, The sunshine doth it see. The Sun that looks with pleasure On me is Christ my King; The glory beyond measure That waits me, makes me sing. Languages: English

My Father! cheering name!

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a424 (1895) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 My Father! cheering name! Oh, may I call Thee mine? Give me with humble hope to claim A portion so divine. 2 Whate'er Thy will denies, I calmly would resign, For Thou art just, and good, and wise: O bend my will to Thine! 3 Whate'er Thy will ordains, O give me strength to bear; Still let me know a Father reigns, And trust a Father's care. 4 Thy ways are little known To my weak, erring sight; Yet shall my soul, believing, own, That all Thy ways are right.
