O Lord of heaven, and earth, and sea

Author: Bp. Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-1885 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #43 (1917) Lyrics: 1. O Lord of heaven, and earth, and sea, To Thee all praise and glory be; How shall we show our love to Thee Who givest all? 2. The golden sunshine, vernal air, Sweet flowers and fruit, Thy love declare; When harvest ripen, Thou art there, Who givest all. 3. For peaceful homes, and healthful days, For all the blessings earth displays, We owe Thee thankfulness and praise, Who givest all. 4. Thou didst not spare Thine only Son, But gav'st Him for a world undone, And freely with that Blessed One Thou givest all. 5. Thou giv'st the Holy Spirit's dower, Spirit of life and love and power, And dost His sevenfold graces shower Upon us all. 6. For souls redeemed, for sins forgiven, For means of grace and hopes of heaven, Father, what can to Thee be given, Who giveth all? 7. We lose what on ourselves we spend, We have as treasure without end Whatever, Lord, to Thee we lend Who givest all. 8. Whatever, Lord, we lend to Thee Repaid a thousandfold will be; Then gladly will we give to Thee, Who givest all. 9. To Thee, from whom we all derive Our life, our gifts, our power to give O may we ever with Thee live, Who givest all.

Yes! we know that Thou rejoicest O'er each work of Thine; Thou didst ears and hands and voices For Thy praise design; Craftsman's art and music's measure For Thy pleasure All combine. 4. In Thy house, great God, we offer Of Thine own to Thee; And for Thine acceptance proffer, All unworthily, Hearts and minds, and hands and voices, In our choicest Psalmody. 5.

We bless Thee, Lord, for all this common life Can give of rest and joy amidst its strife; For earth and trees and sea and clouds and springs; For work, and all the lessons that it brings. 2. For Pisgah gleams of newer, fairer truth, Which ever ripening still renews our youth; For fellowship with noble souls and wise, Whose hearts beat time to music of the skies; 3. For each achievement human toil can reach; For all that patriots win, and poets teach; For the old light that gleams on history's page, For the new hope that shines on each new age. 4.

O God, our help in ages past

Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #47 (1917) Lyrics: 1. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home: 2. Under the shadow of Thy throne, Thy saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient in Thine arm alone, And our defence is sure. 3. Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received her frame, From everlasting Thou art God, To endless years the same. 4. A thousand ages in Thy sight Are like an evening gone, Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. 5. The busy tribes of flesh and blood, With all their cares and fears, Are carried downward by the flood, And lost in following years. 6. Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Bears all its sons away; They fly forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. 7. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guide while life shall last, And our eternal home.

Thy goodness and Thy truth to me, To every soul, abound; A vast, unfathomable sea, Where all our thoughts are drowned. 4.
