My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame. Amen. Scripture: Galatians 5:25 Used With Tune: MORECAMBE

What a privilege to carry Ev'rything to God in prayer! Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Ev'rything to God in prayer! 2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged; Take it to the Lord in prayer! Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our ev'ry weakness; Take it to the Lord in prayer! 3 Are we weak and heavy laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge; Take it to the Lord in prayer! Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He'll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there. Amen. Scripture: Philippians 4:6 Used With Tune: ERIE

Before Your Cross, O Jesus

Author: Ferdinand Q. Blanchard Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Gospel Call and Response Lyrics: 1 Before your cross, O Jesus, our lives are judged today; the meaning of our eager strife is tested by your way. Across our restless living the light streams from your cross, and by its clear, revealing beams we measure gain and loss. 2 The hopes that lead us onward, the fears that hold us back, our will to dare great things for God, the courage that we lack, The faith we keep in goodness, our love, as low or pure, on all, the judgment of the cross falls steady, clear, and sure. 3 Yet humbly, in our striving, we rise to face its test. We crave the power to do your will as once you did it best. On us let now the healing of your great Spirit fall, and make us brave and full of joy to answer to your call. Scripture: Mark 8:34 Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER
