Arm these Thy soldiers, mighty Lord

Appears in 67 hymnals Topics: Catechism Lyrics: 1 Arm these Thy soldiers, mighty Lord, With shield of faith and Spirit's sword; Forth to the battle may they go And boldly fight against the foe, With banner of the cross unfurled, And by it overcome the world; And so at last receive from Thee The palm and crown of victory. 2 Come, ever-blessed Spirit, come, And make Thy servant's hearts Thy home; May each a living temple be Hallowed forever, Lord, to Thee; Enrich that temple's holy shrine With sevenfold gifts of grace Divine; With wisdom, light, and knowledge bless Strength, counsel, fear, and godliness. 3 O Trinity in Unity One only God, and Persons Three; In whom, thro' whom, by whom we live, To Thee we praise and glory give; O grant us so to use Thy grace, That we may see Thy glorious face, And ever with the heavenly host Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. 7 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears reliev'd; How precious did that grace appear, The hour I first believ'd! 8 Thro' many dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come; 'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home. 9 The Lord has promis'd good to me, His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be, As long as life endures. 10 Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail, And mortal life shall cease; I shall possess, within the vail, A life of joy and peace. 11 There joys unseen by mortal eyes Or reason's feeble ray, In ever blooming prospects rise, Unconscious of decay. 12 Then now, on faith's sumblimest wing, Let ardent wishes rise To those bright scenes, where pleasures spring, Immortal in the skies

Approach, my soul, the mercy seat

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 617 hymnals Topics: Catechism Lyrics: 1 Approach, my soul, the mercy seat, Where Jesus answers prayer; There humbly fall before His feet, For none can perish there. 2 Thy promise is my only plea, With this I venture nigh; Thou callest burdened souls to Thee, And such, O Lord, am I. 3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin, By Satan sorely pressed, By wars without and fears within, I come to Thee for rest. 4 Be Thou my shield and hiding-place, That, sheltered near Thy side, I may my fierce Accuser face And tell him Thou hast died. 5 O wondrous Love, to bleed and die, To bear the cross and shame, That guilty sinners such as I Might plead Thy gracious name!
