We Plow the Fields and Scatter
Author: Matthais Clauduis; Jane Montgomery Campbell Meter: 7.6.7.6 D with refrain Appears in 457 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 4:9 Refrain First Line: All good gifts around us Lyrics: 1 We plow the fields and scatter
the good seed on the land,
but it is fed and watered
by God's almighty hand.
He sends the snow in winter,
the warmth to swell the grain,
the breezes and the sunshine,
and soft refreshing rain.
Refrain:
All good gifts around us are sent from heaven
above;
then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord for all
his love.
2 He only is the maker
of all things near and far;
he paints the wayside flower,
he lights the evening star.
The wind and waves obey him,
by him the birds are fed;
much more to us, his children,
he gives our daily bread. Refrain
3 We thank you, our Creator,
for all things bright and good:
the seedtime and the harvest,
our life, our health, our food.
Accept the gifts we offer
for all your love imparts;
accept what you most welcome:
our humble, thankful hearts! Refrain

Contentment
Author: William Cowper Appears in 53 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 4:11 First Line: O Lord, how full of sweet content Lyrics: 1 O Lord, how full of sweet content
Our years of pilgrimage are spent!
Where'er we dwell, we dwell with thee,
In heaven, in earth, or on the sea.
2 To us remains nor place nor time:
Our country is in every clime:
We can be calm and free from care
On any shore, since God is there.
3 While place we seek, or place we shun,
The soul finds happiness in none;
But with our God to guide our way,
'Tis equal joy to go or stay.
4 Could we be cast where thou art not,
That were indeed a dreadful lot;
But regions none remote we call,
Secure of finding God in all. Topics: Calmness; Christians Graces; Communion of Saints At Lord's Table; Contentment Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

Oh qué amigo nos es Cristo
Author: Joseph M. Scriven; Leandro Garza Mora Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 41 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 4:4-9 First Line: ¡Oh qué amigo nos es Cristo! Lyrics: 1 ¡Oh qué amigo nos es Cristo!
él llevó nuestro dolor;
Él nos manda que llevemos
todo a Dios en oración.
¿Vive el hombre desprovisto
de paz, gozo y santo amor?
Esto es porque no llevamos
todo a Dios en oración.
2 ¿Andes débil y cargado
de cuidados y temor?
A Jesús, refugio eterno,
dile todo en oración.
¿Te desprecian tus amigos?
cuéntaselo en oración;
En sus brazos gozo tierno,
paz tendrá tu corazón.
3 Jesucristo es nuestro Amigo:
de esto prueba nos mostró,
Pues a redimirnos vino;
por nosotros se humanó.
El castigo de su pueblo
en su muerte él sufrió;
Cristo es un Amigo eterno;
sólo en él confío yo.

Whose welfare fills my daily care
My present joy, my future crown,

Of the redeemer's righteousness,
Adorn the gospel with your lives,
And practice what your lips profess.

When he, descending from the skies,
Shall bid your bodies, mean and vile
In his all-glorious Image rise.

To him inviolably cleave:
Your all he purchas'd by his blood,
Nor let him less than all receive.

Whose soul desires not yours, but you,
O may he at the Lord's right-hand,
Himself and all his people view. Topics: The Church; Prayer for Ministers; Pastor His prayer for his people

Jesus, Lover of My Soul
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 3,236 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 4:19 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, lover of my soul,
let me to thy bosom fly,
while the nearer waters roll,
while the tempest still is high;
hide me, O my Savior, hide
till the storm of life is past;
safe into the haven guide,
O receive my soul at last.
2 Other refuge have I none;
hangs my helpless soul on thee;
leave, ah! leave me not alone,
still support and comfort me.
All my trust on thee is stayed,
all my help from thee I bring;
cover my defenseless head
with the shadow of thy wing.
3 Plenteous grace with thee is found,
grace to cover all my sin;
let the healing streams abound,
make and keep me pure within.
Thou of life the fountain art,
freely let me take of thee;
spring thou up within my heart,
rise to all eternity. Used With Tune: ABERYSTWYTH
Jesus, Lover of My Soul
The Head That Once Was Crowned with Thorns
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 513 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 4 Lyrics: 1 The head that once was crowned with thorns
is crowned with glory now;
a royal diadem adorns
the mighty victor's brow.
2 The highest place that heaven affords
is his, is his by right
the King of kings and Lord of lords,
and heaven's eternal Light;
3 the joy of all who dwell above,
the joy of all below,
to whom he manifests his love
and grants his Name to know.
4 To them the cross with all its shame,
with all its grace, is given;
their name, an everlasting name;
their joy, the joy of heaven.
5 They suffer with their Lord below,
they reign with him above,
their profit and their joy to know
the mystery of his love.
6 The cross he bore is life and health,
though shame and death to him:
his people's hope, his people's wealth,
their everlasting theme.

Though Troubles Assail Us
Author: John Newton Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 431 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 4:19 First Line: Though troubles assail us and dangers affright Lyrics: 1 Though troubles assail us and dangers affright,
though friends should all fail us and foes all unite,
yet one thing secures us, whatever betide,
the promise assures us, "The Lord will provide."
2 The birds, without garner or storehouse, are fed;
from them let us learn to trust God for our bread.
His saints what is fitting shall ne'er be denied
so long as 'tis written, "The Lord will provide."
3 When Satan assails us to stop up our path,
and courage all fails us, we triumph by faith.
He cannot take from us, though oft he has tried,
this heart-cheering promise, "The Lord will provide."
4 No strength of our own and no goodness we claim;
yet, since we have known of the Savior's great name,
in this our strong tower for safety we hide:
the Lord is our power, "The Lord will provide."
