Oft in Danger, Oft in Woe

Onward, Christians, onward go,
Fight the fight, maintain the strife,
Strengthened with the Bread of Life.
2 Shrink not, Christians, will ye yield?
Will ye quit the painful field?
Will ye flee in danger's hour?
Know ye not your Captain's pow'r?
3 Let your fainting hearts be glad;
March in heav'nly armor clad;
Fight, nor think the battle long;
Vict'ry soon shall tune your song.
4 Lord of hosts, direct our way,
That we conquer in the fray;
Let not sin our course impede,
Be our strength, supply our need.
Amen. Scripture: 1 Peter 5:8-9 Used With Tune: CULBACH NEW
Oft in Danger, Oft in Woe
Oh, For A Faith That Will Not Shrink
Author: W. H. Bathurst Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 707 hymnals Topics: Spiritual Songs Faith Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a faith that will not shrink,
Tho' press'd by many a foe,
That will not tremble on the brink
Of any earthly woe;
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chast'ning rod,
But, in the hour of grief or pain,
Will lean upon its God;
3 A faith that shines more bright and clear
When tempests rage without;
That when in danger knows no fear,
In darkness feels no doubt;
4 That bears unmov'd the world’s dread frown,
Nor heeds its scornful smile;
That seas of trouble cannot drown,
Nor Satan’s arts beguile;
5 A faith that keeps the narrow way
Till life’s last hour is fled,
And with a pure and heavenly ray
Lights up a dying bed.
6 Lord, give us such a faith as this,
And then, whate’er may come,
We’ll taste e’en here, the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home. Used With Tune: [Oh, for a faith that will not shrink]

Both friend and foe in all our strife,
And preach thee, too, as love knows how
By kindly words and virtuous life:

We will be true to thee till death. Used With Tune: [Faith of our fathers, living still]

And all the stars obey.

That filled the earth with food;
That formed creation with a word,
And then pronounced it good.
Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed,
Where’er I turn my eye;
If I survey the ground I tread,
Or gaze upon the sky!
3 There’s not a plant or flower below,
But makes your glories known;
And clouds arise, and tempests blow,
By order from your throne;
While all that borrows life from you
Is ever in your care,
And ev'rywhere that I may be,
O God, be present there. Scripture: Genesis 1:12 Used With Tune: MOZART

speak of peace; so says our God.
Comfort those who sit in darkness,
mourning under sorrow's load.
Cry out to Jerusalem
of the peace that waits for them;
tell them that their sins I cover
and their warfare now is over.
2 For the herald's voice is crying
in the desert far and near,
calling all to true repentance,
since God's judgement now is here.
Oh, that warning cry obey!
Now prepare for God a way!
Let the valleys rise in meeting
and the hills bow down in greeting.
3 Then make straight what long was crooked;
make the rougher places plain.
Let your hearts be true and humble,
as befits a holy reign.
For the glory of our God
now on earth is shed abroad,
and all flesh shall see the token
that God's word is never broken. Scripture: Isaiah 40 Used With Tune: GENEVAN 42

while earth rolls onward into light,
through all the world a watch is keeping
and rests not now by day or night.
3 As o'er each continent and island
the dawn leads on another day,
the voice of prayer is never silent,
nor dies the strain of praise away.
4 The sun that bids us rest is waking
your church beneath the western sky,
and hour by hour fresh lips are making
your wondrous doings heard on high.
5 So be it, God! Your throne shall never,
like earth's proud empires, pass away;
your rule remains and grows forever,
until there dawns that glorious day. Used With Tune: ST CLEMENT

Our Hope for years to come,
Our Shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal Home.
2 Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting thou art God,
To endless years the same.
3 A thousand ages in thy sight
Are like an evening gone;
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
4 Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
Soon bears us all away;
We fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the op'ning day.
5 O God, our Help in ages past,
Our Hope for years to come,
Be thou our Guard while life shall last,
And our eternal Home. Scripture: Psalm 38:15 Used With Tune: ST. ANNE
