Blessed Jesus, Son of God,
Who, to serve Thine own creation,
Didst partake of flesh and blood;

From Thy fold or pastures stray,
But with zeal and joy exceeding
Follow where Thy steps are leading.

E'en though bitter pain and strife
On my way shall overtake me;
But may I through all my life
Walk in fervent love to Thee,
In all woes for comfort flee
To Thy birth, Thy death and passion;
Till I see Thy full salvation. Used With Tune: [Praise to Thee and adoration]

O happy day when we shall stand

Our thanks and praise to Thee be given
Author: Philip Melanchton; P. Eber Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Worship in General Prayer and Praise Lyrics: 1 Our thanks and praise to Thee be given,
Thou Lord of earth and Lord of heaven,
For countless hosts of angels bright,
That serve Thy Son in cloudless light.
2 Pure in their nature, good, and true,
'Tis their delight Thy will to do;
From heaven they come the souls to guard
That trust in Thy most holy word.
3 They joy when but one sinner turns;
Their zeal for Jesus ever burns;
They serve His people night and day,
And turn full many an ill away.
4 All little ones, awake, asleep,
And every child of thine, they keep;
O'er all thy kingdom, far and near,
They give their kind and loving care.
5 When death approaches, then they come,
To soften pain, and guide us home;
And when the spirit leaves the clay,
To waft us to the realms of day.
6 Give us, O Lord, the grace and power
To serve Thee well each day and hour;
Grant us the seal and fervent love
To serve as angels serve above.
7 Let these good spirits with us be,
When in Thy house we worship Thee;
And bid them all our path defend
Till this our life on earth shall end. Used With Tune: [Our thanks and praise to Thee be given]

Safely through another week
Author: J. Newton Appears in 1,025 hymnals Topics: Worship in General Beginning of Service Lyrics: 1 Safely through another week
God has brought us on our way;
Let us now a blessing seek,
Waiting in His courts today;
Day of all the week the best,
Emblem of eternal rest!
2 Mercies multiplied each hour
Through the week our praise demand;
Guarded by almighty power,
Fed and guided by His hand,
Though ungrateful we have been,
Only made returns of sin.
3 While we pray for pardoning grace,
Through the dear Redeemer's name,
Show Thy reconciléd face;
Take away our sin and shame;
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in Thee.
4 May Thy gospel's joyful sound
Conquer sinners, comfort saints;
May the fruits of grace abound,
Bring relief for all complaints:
Thus may all our Sabbaths prove
Till we join the Church above.

Jesus, Sun of righteousness
Author: C. K. von Rosenroth Appears in 74 hymnals Topics: Worship in General; Worship in General Prayer and Praise Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Sun of righteousness,
Brightest beam of love divine,
With the early morning rays
Do Thou on our darkness shine,
And dispel with purest light
All our long and gloomy night.
2 As on drooping herb and flower
Falls the soft refreshing dew,
Let Thy Spirit's grace and power
All our weary souls renew;
Showers of blessing softly fall
On Thy people, one an all!
3 Like the sun's reviving ray,
May Thy love, with tender glow,
All our coldness melt away,
Warm and cheer us forth to go,
Thee to honor and obey
All our life's short earthly day.
4 Thou our only hope and guide,
Never leave us nor forsake:
In Thy light may we abide
Till the endless morning break,
Moving to Thy holy hill
Onward, upward, homeward still!
5 Lead us all our days and years
In Thy straight and narrow way;
Lead us through this vale of tears
To the land of perfect day,
Where Thy people, fully blest,
Near Thy throne forever rest. Used With Tune: [Jesus, Sun of righteousness]

Jesus, unto me?
None are like Thee, none above Thee
Thou art altogether lovely;
None on earth have we,
None in heaven like Thee.

Blood that freely flowed;
Life that stooped to death to save me,
And a deathless being gave me;
Bore my guilty load,
Brought me back to God!

I will learn of Thee,
To be holy, meek, and tender.
Wrath and pride and self surrender:
Nothing shouldst thou see
But Thyself in me.

I one day shall stand,
Let Thy presence go beside me,
Through the gloomy waters guide me:

Open now my ear to hear Thee,
Take my heart and seal it Thine;
Keep me, lead me on my way
Thee to follow and obey,
E'er to do Thy will and fear Thee,
And rejoice to know and hear Thee.
2 Underneath Thy wings abiding,
In Thy Church, O Savior dear,
Let me dwell, in Thee confiding,
Hold me in Thy faith and fear;
Take away from me each thought
That with wickedness is fraught,
Tempting me to disobey Thee,
Root it out, O Lord, I pray Thee.
3 Thou, earth's greatest joy and gladness,
And salvation, full and free,
Let Thy presence cheer my sadness,
And prepare my soul for Thee!

Touch my spirit, lips and heart,
With Thy word assure, uphold me
Till the heavenly gates enfold me. Used With Tune: [Dearest Jesus draw Thou near me]

Our erring feet to heaven;
If Thou, O Lord, with us abide,
Light to our path is given.

The angels praise adoring;
Receive our souls in Thee above,
Thy name in death imploring.

To yon bodes of glory;
On Thee to rest our joyful eyes,
And fall in praise before Thee. Used With Tune: [Draw us to Thee in mind and heart]
