Unto the Lord of All Creation

Author: Ernst William Olson; Arvid August Afzelius Hymnal: The Junior Hymnal, Containing Sunday School and Luther League Liturgy and Hymns for the Sunday School #33 (1928) Lyrics: 1 Unto the Lord of all creation Thy voice, my soul, in anthems raise. Let ev'ry heart a fit oblation Bring unto Him with songs of praise. O contemplate in humbleness The pow'r and riches of His grace. 2 In Him we live and have our being; And all the hosts of heav'n and earth The living God, all-wise, all-seeing, Through His own Spirit brought to birth. His holy Name, writ in His Word, Thro' all the universe is heard. 3 The Lord who laid the earth's foundation, And for the stars their course decreed. Whose hand hath ordered all creation, Provideth for our ev’ry need; For God is Love: the Father's care His smallest child shall duly share. 4 And when the morning star appeareth, Thy grace, Thy glory we proclaim; When falls the dew, and evening neareth, O Lord, we call upon Thy Name. Upon Thy mercy we rely, Father, Creator, God on high. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [Unto the Lord of all creation]

Help Us, O Lord, Behold, We Enter

Author: Johann Rist; Miss Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #58 (1926) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Help us, O Lord, behold, we enter Upon another year to-day; In Thee our hopes and thoughts we center, Renew our courage for the way: New life, new strength, new happiness We ask of Thee, O hear and bless! 2 May every plan and undertaking This year be all begun with Thee; When I am sleeping or am waking, Still let me know Thou art with me; Abroad do Thou my footsteps guide, At home be ever at my side. 3 Be this a time of grace and pardon; Thy rod I take with willing mind, But suffer naught my heart to harden, And let me now Thy mercy find; In Thee alone, my God, I live, Thou only canst my sins forgive. 4 And may this year to me be holy; Thy grace so fill my every thought, That all my life be pure and lowly And truthful as a Christian's ought; So make me, while yet dwelling here, Faithful and blest from year to year. 5 Jesus, be with me and direct me; Jesus, my plans and hopes inspire; Jesus, from tempting thoughts protect me; Jesus, be all my heart's desire; Jesus, be in my thoughts all day, Nor suffer me to fall away. 6 Grant, Lord, that when the year is over, That it for me in peace it close; In all things care for me, and cover My head in time of fear and woes; So may I, when my years are gone, Appear with joy before Thy throne. Amen.

Baptized into Thy Name Most Holy

Author: Johann Jacob Rambach; Miss Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #59 (1926) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Baptized into Thy Name most holy, O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, I claim a place, though weak and lowly, Among Thy seed and chosen host; Buried with Christ, and dead to sin, Thy Spirit now shall live within. 2 My loving Father, Thou dost take me To be henceforth Thy child and heir; My faithful Saviour, Thou dost make me The fruit of all Thy sorrows share, Thou, Holy Ghost, wilt comfort me, When darkest clouds around I see. 3 And I have vowed to fear and love Thee, And to obey Thee, Lord, alone; I felt Thy Holy Spirit move me, And freely pledged myself Thine own, Renouncing sin to keep the faith, And war with evil unto death. 4 My faithful God, Thou failest never, Thy covenant will e'er abide; O cast me not away forever, Should I transgress it on my side; If I have sore my soul defiled, Yet still forgive, restore thy child. 5 Yea, all I am, and love most dearly,-- To Thee anew I give the whole; O let me make my vows sincerely, Take full possession of my soul, Let naught within me, naught I own, Serve any will but Thine alone. 6 And never let my purpose falter, O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, But keep me faithful to Thine altar, Till Thou shalt call me from my post; To Thee I thus will live and die, And praise Thee evermore on high. Amen.
