Author: Robert Bridges, 1844-1930; Joachim Neander, 1650-1680 Meter: 8.7.8.7.3.3.7 Appears in 70 hymnals Topics: Faith, Trust and Commitment Lyrics: 1 All my hope on God is founded; he doth still my trust renew. Me through change and chance he guideth, only good and only true. God unknown, he alone calls my heart to be his own. 2 Human pride and earthly glory, sword and crown betray his trust; what with care and toil he buildeth, tow'r and temple, fall to dust. But God's power, hour by hour, is my temple and my towe'r. 3 God's great goodness aye endureth, deep his wisdom, passing thought: splendour, light and life attend him, beauty springeth out of naught. Evermore, from his store new-born worlds rise and adore. 4 Still from earth to God eternal sacrifice of praise be done, high above all praises praising for the gift of Christ his Son. Christ doth call one and all: ye who follow shall not fall. Scripture: 1 Peter 1:21 Used With Tune: MICHAEL

Around the throne of grace, He appoints my soul a place; I'm on the battlefield for my Lord. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [I was alone and idle]

Before the Cross of Jesus

Author: Ferdinand Q. Blanchard, 1876-1968 Meter: 7.6.8.6.7.6.8.6 Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Commitment Lyrics: 1 Before the cross of Jesus Our lives are judged today; The meaning of our eager strife Is tested by His Way. Across our restless living The light streams from His 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, O God, we face its test. We crave the pow'r to do Thy will With Him who did it best. On us let now the healing Of His great Spirit fall, And make us brave and full of joy To answer to His call. Scripture: Revelation 14:4-6 Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER
