The Triumph of Faith

Author: Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #72 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Election and God's Decrees First Line: Who shall the Lord's elect condemn? Lyrics: 1 Who shall the Lord’s elect condemn? ’Tis God that justifies their souls; And mercy, like a mighty stream, O’er all their sins divinely rolls. 2 Who shall adjudge the saints to hell? ’Tis Christ that suffered in their stead; And the salvation to fulfil, Behold him rising from the dead! 3 He lives! he lives! and sits above, For ever interceding there; Who shall divide us from his love, Or what shall tempt us to despair? 4 Shall persecution, or distress, Famine, or sword, or nakedness? He that has loved us bears us through, And makes us more than conquerors, too. 5 Faith has an overcoming power; It triumphs in the dying hour. Christ is our life, our joy, our hope, Nor can we sink with such a prop. 6 Not all that men on earth can do, Nor powers on high, nor powers below, Shall cause his mercy to remove, Or wean our hearts from Christ our love.

Behold the Potter and the Clay

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.CXVII (1766) Topics: Free election Lyrics: 1 Behold the Potter and the Clay, He forms his Vessels as he please: Such is our God, and such are we; The subjects of his high Decrees. 2 Doth not the Workman's Pow'r extend O'er all the Mass, which Part to choose, And mould it for nobler End, And which to leave for viler Use?] 3 May not the Sov'reign Lord on high Dispense his Favours as he will; Choose some to Life, while others die, And yet be just and gracious still? [4 What if to make his Terror known, He lets his Patience long endure, Suff'ring vile Rebels to go on, And seal their own Destruction sure? 5 What if he means to show his Grace, And his electing Love employs To mark out some of mortal Race, And form them fit for heav'nly Joys?] 6 Shall Man reply against the Lord, And call his Maker's Ways unjust, The Thunder of whose dreadful Word Can crush a thousand Worlds to Dust? 7 But, O my Soul, if Truth so bright Should dazzle and confound thy sight, Yet still his written Will obey, And wait the great decisive Day. 8 Then shall he make his Justice known, And the whole World before his Throne, With Joy, or Terror, shall confess The Glory of his Righteousness.

From Eternity, O God

Author: C. Neumann, 1648-1715 ; A. Crull, 1846-1923 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #220 (1996) Meter: 7.8.7.8.8.8 Topics: Election Lyrics: 1 From eternity, O God, In Thy Son Thou didst elect me. Therefore, Father, on life's road Graciously to heav'n direct me; Send to me Thy Holy Spirit That His gifts I may inherit. 2 Though alive, I'm dead in sin, Lost to all good things by nature. Holy Ghost, change me within, Make of me a new-born creature; For the flesh works ruination And can never gain salvation. 3 Drive away the gloomy night Of my heart's perverse reflection. Quench all thoughts that are not right; Hold my reason in subjection. Grant that I from Thee, with yearning, Wisdom always may be learning. 4 All desire and thoughts of mine From my youth are only evil. Save me by Thy pow'r divine From myself and from the devil; Give me strength in ample measure Both to will and do Thy pleasure. 5 Oh, create a heart in me That in Thee, my God believeth And o'er the iniquity Of my sins most truly grieveth. When dark hours of woe betide me, In the wounds of Jesus hide me. 6 As a branch upon a vine, In my blessed Lord implant me; Ever of my Head divine To remain a member grant me. O let Him, my Lord and Savior, Be my Life and Love forever! 7 Faith and hope and charity Graciously, O Father, give me; Be my Guardian constantly That the devil may not grieve me. Grant me humbleness and gladness, Peace and patience in my sadness. 8 Help me speak what's right and good And keep silence on occasion. Help me pray, Lord, as I should, Help me bear my tribulation. Help me die and let my spirit Everlasting life inherit. Languages: English Tune Title: LIEBSTER JESU, WIR SIND HIER

You Who Know the Lord Is Gracious

Hymnal: Singing the New Testament #232 (2008) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Election Lyrics: 1 You who know the Lord is gracious, you for whom a cornerstone stands of God elect and precious, laid that you may build thereon, see that on that sure foundation you a living temple raise, towers that may tell forth salvation, walls that may re-echo praise. 2 Living stones by God appointed each to an allotted place, kings and priests, by God anointed, shall you not declare his grace? You, a royal generation, tell the tidings of your birth, tidings of a new creation to an old and weary earth. 3 Tell the praise of him who called you out of darkness into light, broke the fetters that enthralled you, gave you freedom, peace, and sight; tell a tale of sins forgiven, strength renewed, and hope restored, till the earth, in tune with heaven, praise and magnify the Lord.

The Church's One Foundation

Author: Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #251 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Election Lyrics: 1 The church’s one foundation is Jesus Christ, her Lord; she is his new creation by water and the Word. From heaven he came and sought her to be his holy bride; with his own blood he bought her, and for her life he died. 2 Elect from every nation, yet one o’er all the earth; her charter of salvation: one Lord, one faith, one birth. One holy name she blesses, partakes one holy food, and to one hope she presses, with every grace endued. 3 Though with a scornful wonder the world sees her oppressed, by schisms rent asunder, by heresies distressed, yet saints their watch are keeping; their cry goes up: “How long?” and soon the night of weeping shall be the morn of song. 4 Mid toil and tribulation, and tumult of her war, she waits the consummation of peace forevermore, till with the vision glorious her longing eyes are blest, and the great church victorious shall be the church at rest. 5 Yet she on earth has union with God the Three in One, and mystic sweet communion with those whose rest is won: O happy ones and holy! Lord, give us grace that we, like them, the meek and lowly, may live eternally. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3:11 Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

How Vast the Benefits Divine

Author: Rev. Augustus M. Toplady; Dewey Westra Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #379 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Divine Election Lyrics: 1 How vast the benefits divine, Which we in Christ possess! We are redeemed from sin and shame, And called to holiness. 'Tis not for works which we have done, These all to Him we owe; But He, of His electing love, Salvation doth bestow. 2 To Thee, O Lord, alone is due All glory and renown; Aught to ourselves we dare not take, Or rob Thee of Thy crown. Thou wast Thyself our Surety In God's redemption plan; In Thee His grace was give us, Long ere the world began. 3 Safe in the arms of sovereign love We ever shall remain; Nor shall the rage of earth or hell Make Thy sure counsel vain. Not one of all the chosen race But shall to heaven attain; Here they will share abounding grace, And there with Jesus reign. Languages: English Tune Title: SERAPH
