Teach me some melodious sonnet, Sung by flaming tongues above. Praise the mount– I'm fixed upon it– Mount of God's unchanging love. 2 Here I raise my Ebenezer; Hither by thy help I've come; And I hope, by thy good pleasure, Safely to arrive at home. Jesus sought me when a stranger, Wand'ring from the fold of God; He, to rescue me from danger, Interposed his precious blood. 3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrained to be! Let that grace now like a fetter, Bind my wand'ring heart to thee: Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love; Here's my heart, oh, take and seal it; Seal it for thy courts above. --- 1 Fuente de la vida eterna y de toda bendición, ensalzar tu gracia tierna quiere nuestro corazón. Tu piedad inagotable, abundante en perdonar; único ser adorable, gloria a ti debemos dar. 2 De los cánticos celestes, te quisiéramos cantar, entonados por las huestes que lograste rescatar. Almas que a buscar viniste, porque les tuviste amor, de ellas te compadeciste, con tiernísimo favor. 3 Toma nuestros corazones, llénalos de tu verdad; de tu Espíritu los dones y de toda santidad. Guíanos en obediencia, humildad, amor y fe, nos ampare tu clemencia; Salvador propicio sé. Scripture: 1 Samuel 7:12 Used With Tune: NETTLETON

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Frederick H. Hedge Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 681 hymnals Topics: Praise of God Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing; our helper he, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe; his craft and power are great, and, armed with cruel hate, on earth is not his equal. 2 Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing, were not the right man on our side, the man of God’s own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he; Lord Sabaoth, his name, from age to age the same, and he must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, we will not fear, for God hath willed his truth to triumph through us. The Prince of Darkness grim, we tremble not for him; his rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure, one little word shall fell him. 4 That word above all earthly powers, no thanks to them, abideth; the Spirit and the gifts are ours thro' him who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also; the body they may kill: God’s truth abideth still; his kingdom is forever. Scripture: Psalm 18:2 Used With Tune: EIN' FESTE BURG
