God of my Mercy and my Praise

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P109 (1766) Topics: Christ his love to enemies; Christ Our example; Company of saints; Enemies prayed for; Love to enemies Lyrics: 1 God of my Mercy and my Praise, Thy Glory is my Song; Though Sinners speak against thy Grace With a blaspheming Tongue. 2 When in the Form of mortal Man Thy Son on Earth was found, With cruel Slanders false and vain They compass'd him around. 3 Their Mis'ries his Compassion move, Their Peace he still pursu'd; They render Hatred for his Love, And Evil for his Good. 4 Their Malice rag'd without a Cause, Yet, with his dying Breath, He pray'd for Murd'rers on the Cross, And blest his Foes in death. 5 Lord, shall thy bright Example shine In vain before my Eyes? Give me a Soul a-kin to thine, To love my Enemies. 6 The Lord shall on my Side engage, And, in my Saviour's Name, I shall defeat their Pride and Rage, Who slander and condemn. Scripture: Psalm 109:31 Languages: English

The virtues, all in Jesus met, With mildest radiance shine. 2 To spread the rays of heavenly light, To give the mourner joy, To preach glad tidings to the poor, Was his divine employ. 3 Lowly in heart, to all his friends A friend and servant found; He washed their feet, he wiped their tears, And healed each bleeding wound. 4 'Mid keen reproach and cruel scorn Patient and meek he stood; His foes, ungrateful, sought his life: He labored for their good. 5 In the last hour of deep distress, Before his Father's throne, With soul resigned, he bowed, and said, Thy will, not mine, be done! 6 Be Christ our pattern and our guide; His image may we bear: Oh, may we tread his holy steps, His joy and glory share. Scripture: Matthew 26:39-42

Show us how through care and goodness fear will die and hope increase. 3 All that kills abundant living, let it from the earth be banned; pride of status, race or schooling, dogmas that obscure your plan. In our common quest for justice may we hallow life's brief span. 4 You, Creator God, have written your great name on humankind; for our growing in your likeness bring the life of Christ to mind, that by our response and service earth its destiny may find.
