Give to Our God Immortal Praise
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 332 hymnals Topics: God Eternal; God Savior; Processional Hymns; God Creator; God Eternal; God Guide; God Mercy; God Savior; God Truth; Praise of God; Processional Hymns Lyrics: 1 Give to our God immortal praise;
mercy and truth are all his ways:
wonders of grace to God belong;
repeat his mercies in your song.
2 He built the earth, he spread the sky,
and fixed the starry lights on high:
wonders of grace to God belong;
repeat his mercies in your song.
3 He fills the sun with morning light;
he bids the moon direct the night:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when suns and moons shall shine no more.
4 He sent his Son with power to save
from guilt, and darkness and the grave:
wonders of grace to God belong;
repeat his mercies in your song.
5 Through this vain world he guides our feet,
and leads us to his heavenly seat:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when this our world shall be no more.
Scripture: Psalm 19:1 Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

God, Who Made the Earth and Heaven
Author: Reginald Heber; William Mercer; Richard Whately Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8.8.4 Appears in 482 hymnals Topics: Passing Days; God Guide; God Redeemer; Labor Lyrics: 1. God, who made the earth and heaven,
darkness and light:
you the day for work have given,
for rest the night.
May your angel guards defend us,
slumber sweet your mercy send us,
holy dreams and hopes attend us
all through the night.
2. And when morn again shall call us
to run life's way,
may we still, whate'er befall us,
your will obey.
From the power of evil hide us,
in the narrow pathway guide us,
never be your smile denied us
all through the day.
3 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping,
and, when we die,
maywe in your mighty keeping
all peaceful lie.
When the last dread call shall wake us,
then, O Lord, do not forsake us,
but to reign in glory take us
with you on high.
4 Holy Father, throned in heaven,
all holy Son,
Holy Spirit, freely given,
blest Three in One:
grant us grace, we now implore you,
till we lay our crowns before you,
and in worthier strains adore you
while ages run.

one church, one faith, one Lord!

Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Appears in 406 hymnals Topics: Christian Life Submission; God Guide; Mystery of God's Ways Lyrics: 1 Thy way, not mine, O Lord,
How ever dark it be!
Lead me by thine own hand,
Choose out the path for me;
Smooth let it be or rough,
It will be still the best;
Winding or straight, it leads
Right onward to thy rest.
2 The kingdom that I seek
Is thine; so let the way
That leads to it be thine,
Else I must surely stray.
I dare not choose my lot;
I would not if I might:
Choose thou for me, my God,
So shall I walk aright.
3 Take thou my cup, and it
With joy or sorrow fill
As best to thee may seem;
Choose thou my good and ill.
Not mine, not mine the choice
In things or great or small;
Be thou my Guide, my Strength,
My Wisdom, and my All. Scripture: Romans 6:13 Used With Tune: INVITATION
Thy way, not mine, O Lord
