O God, Thy grace and blessing give

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #19 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O God, Thy grace and blessing give To us who on Thy name attend, That we this mortal life may live Regardful of our journey's end. 2 Teach us to know that Jesus died, And rose again, our souls to save; Teach us to take Him as our guide, Our help from childhood to the grave. 3 Then shall not death with terror come, But welcome as a bidden guest, The herald of a better home, The messenger of peace and rest. 4 And when the awful signs appear Of judgment and the throne above, Our hearts still fixed, we shall not fear, God is our trust, and God is love.

O pour Thy Spirit from on high!

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #20 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O pour Thy Spirit from on high! Lord, Thine appointed servants bless; Thy promised power to each supply And clothe Thy priests with righteousness. 2 Wisdom and zeal and faith impart, Firmness with meekness from above; To bear Thy people on their heart, And love the souls whom Thou dost love: 3 To watch, and pray, and never faint; By day and night their guard to keep; To warn the sinner, cheer the saint, Protect Thy lambs, and feed Thy sheep. 4 And when their work is finished here, Let them in hope their charge resign, Before the throne with joy appear, And there with endless glory shine.

O blest the house, whate'er befall

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #21 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O blest the house, whate'er befall, Where Jesus Christ is all in all; Yea, if He were not dwelling there, How poor and dark and void it were! 2 O blest that house where faith ye find, And all within have set their mind To trust their God and serve Him still, And do, in all, His holy will. 3 O blest the parents who give heed Unto their children's foremost need, And weary not of care or cost: To them and heaven shall none be lost. 4 Blest such a house, it prospers well, In peace and joy the parents dwell, And in their children's lot is shown How richly God can bless His own. 5 Then here will I and mine to-day A solemn cov'nant make and say: Though all the world forsake Thy Word, I and my house will serve the Lord.

Lord Jesus Christ, with us abide

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #23 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, with us abide, For round us falls the even-tide; Nor let Thy Word, that heavenly light, For us be ever veiled in night. 2 In these last days of sore distress Grant us, dear Lord, true steadfastness, That pure we keep--till life is spent-- Thy holy Word and Sacrament. 3 Lord Jesus, help, Thy Church uphold, For we are sluggish, thoughtless, cold; Endow Thy Word with power and grace, And spread its truth in every place, 4 Oh, keep us in Thy Word, we pray; The guile and rage of Satan stay; Unto Thy Church grant, Lord, Thy grace, Peace, concord, patience, fearlessness. 5 O God! how sin's dread works abound! Throughout the earth no rest is found, And wide has falsehood's spirit spread, And error boldly rears its head. 6 Those haughty spirits, Lord, restrain, That fain would o'er Thy Christians reign, And e'er bring forth some fancies new, Devised to change Thy statutes true. 7 And, as the cause and glory, Lord, Are Thine, not ours, do Thou afford Us help and strength and constancy; With all our heart we trust in Thee. 8 A trusty weapon is Thy Word, Thy Church's buckler, shield and sword; Lord, let us by this word abide, That we may seek no other guide. 9 Oh, grant that in Thy holy Word We here may live and die, dear Lord, And when our journey endeth here, Receive us into glory there.

O Christ, our true and only Light

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #24 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our true and only Light, Enlighten those who sit in night; Let those afar now hear Thy voice, And in Thy fold with us rejoice. 2 Fill with the radiance of Thy grace The souls now lost in error's maze, And all whom in their secret minds Some dark delusion haunts and blinds. 3 And all who else have strayed from Thee, O gently seek! Thy healing be To every wounded conscience given, And let them also share Thy heaven. 4 O make the deaf to hear Thy Word, And teach the dumb to speak, dear Lord, Who dare not yet the faith avow, Though secretly they hold it now. 5 Shine on the darkened and the cold, Recall the wanderers to Thy fold, Unite all those who walk apart, Confirm the weak and doubting heart. 6 So shall they with us evermore Thy grace with wondering thanks adore, And praise unceasing Thee be given By all Thy Church in earth and heaven.

Show pity, Lord! O Lord, forgive!

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #25 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Show pity, Lord! O Lord, forgive! Let a repenting rebel live. Are not Thy mercies large and free? May not a sinner trust in Thee? 2 Great God, Thy nature hath no bound, So let Thy pardoning love be found. O wash my soul from every sin, And make my guilty conscience clean! 3 My lips with shame my sins confess Against Thy law, against Thy grace: Lord, should Thy judgment grow severe, I am condemned, but Thou art clear. 4 Yet save a trembling sinner, Lord, Whose hope, still hovering round Thy Word, Would light on some sweet promise there, Some sure support against despair.

That day of wrath, that dreadful day

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #26 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 That day of wrath, that dreadful day, When heaven and earth shall pass away, What power shall be the sinner's stay? How shall he meet that dreadful day? 2 When, shriveling like a parched scroll, The flaming heavens together roll; When louder yet, and yet more dread, Resounds the trump that wakes the dead: 3 Oh! on that day, that wrathful day, When man to judgment wakes from clay, Be Thou, O Christ, the sinner's stay, Though heaven and earth shall pass away.

When I survey the wondrous cross

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #27 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ, my God; All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to His blood. 3 See, from His head, His hands, His feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down! Did e’er such love and sorrow meet, Or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a tribute far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.
