If God Himself be for me
Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #305 (1901) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 If God Himself be for me,
I may a host defy;
For when I pray, before me
My foes confounded fly.
If Christ, the Head, befriend me,
If God be my support,
The mischief they intend me
Shall quickly come to naught.
2 I build on this foundation,
That Jesus and His blood
Alone are my salvation,
The true eternal good;
Without Him, all that pleases
Is valueless on earth:
The gifts I owe to Jesus
Alone my love are worth.
3 His Holy Spirit dwelleth
Within my willing heart,
Tames it when it rebelleth,
And soothes the keenest smart.
He crowns His work with blessing,
And helpeth me to cry
"My Father!" without ceasing
To Him who reigns on high.
4 To mine His Spirit speaketh
Sweet words of soothing power,
How God in Him that seeketh
For rest, hath rest in store.
How God Himself prepareth
My heritage and lot,
And though my body weareth,
My heaven shall fail me not.
Amen. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: JAG SJUNGER NU OM SEGER

What our Father Does is Well
Author: Benjamin Schmolck, 1672-1737 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #306 (1901) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 What our Father does is well;
Blessed truth His children tell!
Though for plenty He send want,
Though the harvest store be scant,
Yet we rest upon His love,
Seeking better things above.
2 What our Father does is well;
Shall the willful heart rebel
If a blessing He withhold
In the field, or in the fold?
Is He not Himself to be
All our store eternally?
3 What our Father does is well;
Though He sadden hill and dell,
Upward yet our praises rise
For the strength His Word supplies,
He has called us sons of God;
Can we murmur at His rod?
4 What our Father does is well;
May the thought within us dwell
Though nor milk nor honey flow
In our barren Canaan now,
God can save us in our need;
God can bless us, God can feed.
5 Therefore unto Him we raise
Hymns of glory, songs of praise;
To the Father and the Son,
And the Spirit, Three in one,
Honor, might, and glory be
Now, and through eternity.
Amen. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: VERONA

Commit thou all thy Griefs
Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #307 (1901) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Commit thou all thy griefs
And ways into His hands,
To His sure truth and tender care,
Who heaven and earth commands:
Who points the clouds their course,
Whom winds and seas obey,
He shall direct thy wandering feet,
He shall prepare thy way.
2 Thou on the Lord rely,
So safe shalt thou go on;
Fix on His work thy steadfast eye;
So shall thy work be done.
No profit canst Thou gain
By self consuming care;
To Him commend thy cause; His ear
Attends the softest prayer.
3 Thy everlasting truth,
Father, Thy ceaseless love,
Sees all Thy children’s wants, and knows
What best for each will prove.
And whatsoe'er Thou will'st,
Thou dost, O King of kings!
What Thine unerring wisdom chose,
Thy power to being brings.
4 Thou everywhere hast sway,
And all things serve Thy might;
Thy every act pure blessing is,
Thy path unsullied light.
When Thou arisest, Lord,
What shall Thy work withstand?
When what Thy children want Thou giv’st,
Who, who shall stay Thy hand?
Amen. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: KANE
Commit thou all thy Griefs
How Happy is the man who Hears
Author: Michael Bruce, 1746-1768 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #308 (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O happy is the man who hears
Instruction’s warning voice,
And who celestial wisdom makes
His early only choice!
His early only choice!
2 For she has treasures greater far
Than east or west unfold;
And her rewards more precious are
Than all their stores of gold,
Than all their stores of gold.
3 She guides the young with innocence
In happy paths to tread;
A crown of glory she bestows
Upon the hoary head,
Upon the hoary head.
4 According as her labors rise,
So her rewards increase;
Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
And all her paths are peace,
And all her paths are peace.
Amen. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: DEVIZES

Author: Henrietta Louisa von Haydn, 1724-1782 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #309a (1901) Meter: 7.7.8.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 I am Jesus' little Lamb,
Therefore glad at heart I am;
Jesus love me, Jesus knows me,
All that's good and fair He shows me,
Tends me every day the same,
Even calls me by my name.
2 Out and in safely go,
Want and hunger never know;
Soft green pastures He discloseth,
Where His happy flock reposeth;
When I faint or thirsty be,
To the brook He leadeth me.
3 Should not I be glad all day
In this blesséd fold to stay?
By this holy Shepherd tended,
Whose kind arms, when life is ended,
Bear me to the world of light?
Yes! oh yes, my lot is bright.
Amen.

Though Troubles Assail us
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #310a (1901) Meter: 11.11.11.11 First Line: Though troubles assail us and dangers affright Lyrics: 1 Though troubles assail us and dangers affright,
Though friends should all fail us and foes all unite,
Yet one thing secures us, whatever betide,
The promise scripture assures us--"The Lord will provide."
2 The birds, without garner or storehouse are fed;
From them let us learn to trust for our bread:
His saints what is fitting shall ne'er be denied
So long as 'tis written, "The Lord will provide."
3 When Satan assails us to stop up our path,
And courage all fails us we triumph by faith,
He cannot take from us, though oft he has tried,
The heart-cheering promise "The Lord will provide."
4 No strength of our own, or goodness we claim;
Yet, since we have known the Saviour's great Name,
In this our strong tower for safety we hide:
The Lord is our power, "The Lord will provide."

God Moves in a Mysterious way
Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #311 (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way,
His wonders to perform;
He plants His footsteps in the sea,
And rides upon the storm.
2 Deep in unfathomable mines
Of never-failing skill,
He treasures up His bright designs,
And works His sovereign will.
3 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take;
The clouds ye so much dread
Are big with mercy, and shall break
In blessings on your head.
4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense,
But trust Him for His grace;
Behind a frowning Providence
He hides a smiling face.
5 His purposes will ripen fast,
Unfolding every hour.
The bud may have a bitter taste,
But sweet will be the flower.
6 Blind unbelief is sure to err,
And scan His work in vain.
God is His own interpreter,
And He will make it plain..
Amen.

Let, O my Soul, Thy God Direct Thee
Author: Georg Neumark, 1621-1681; Johan Olof Wallin, 1779-1839 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #312 (1901) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Let, O my soul, thy God direct thee,
And trust in Him through all thy days;
In every danger He'll protect thee,
And crown thy years with peace and grace.
He doth not build upon the sand
Who trusts in God's almighty hand.
2 Of what avail is all our sorrow?
What profit all our sighs and tears?
Why should we grieve for each to-morrow?
Why thus begin and end our years?
Our sighs and sorrows but increase
Our burdens and disturb our peace.
3 Be still, in faith and hope abiding,
Trust in thy God and be content;
In His unfailing love confiding,
Take what His gracious hand hath sent,
To God who chose thee as His own
Thy every need and care is known.
4 The time to comfort thee He knoweth,
He giveth thee whate'er is best;
The prayer that from thy bosom goeth
He heareth ere it is expressed.
With gifts He cometh unawares
In answer to thy fervent prayers.
5 Think not when tried and tempest driven,
Thou art forsaken by thy God;
For those who are the heirs of heaven
Must pass beneath the chastening rod.
The night of weeping may ere long
Be changed into the morn of song.
6 What does it cost the Lord Almighty
To raise the humble and the low?
Or to abase the high and mighty,
And cause their utter overthrow?
For He whose wonders none can trace,
He lifteth up; He doth abase.
7 Walk in His truth, be firm and fearless,
And do thy duty day by day;
Trust in His Word when sad and cheerless,
Make it thy comfort and thy stay.
The Lord thy God thy refuge make
And He will never thee forsake. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: MIN SJÄL OCH SINNE LÅT GUD RÅDA
