Ah! Whither Shall I Go
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 193 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 139:23 First Line: Ah! whither should I go Lyrics: 1 Ah! whither should I go,
Burdened, and sick, and faint?
To whom should I my troubles show
And pour out my complaint?
2 My Savior bids me come;
Ah! why do I delay?
He calls the weary sinner home,
And yet from Him I stay.
3 What is it keeps me back
From which I cannot part,
Which will not let the Savior take
Possession of my heart?
4 Some cursed thing unknown
Must surely lurk within:
Some idol which I will not own,
Some secret bosom sin.
5 I now believe in Thee;
Compassion reigns alone;
According to my faith, to me
O let it, Lord, be done.

Evermore Thine own to be.

God of Grace and God of Glory
Author: Harry E. Fosdick, 1878-1969 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 155 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 139:23 Lyrics: 1 God of grace and God of glory,
on your people pour your power;
crown your ancient Church’s story,
bring its bud to glorious flower.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
for the facing of this hour,
for the facing of this hour.
2 Lo! the hosts of evil round us
scorn your Christ, assail his ways!
Fears and doubts too long have bound us–
free our hearts to work and praise.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
for the living of these days,
for the living of these days.
3 Heal your children’s warring madness,
bend our pride to your control;
shame our wanton, selfish gladness,
rich in things and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
lest we miss your kingdom’s goal,
lest we miss your kingdom’s goal.
4 Save us from weak resignation
to the evils we deplore;
let the gift of your salvation
be our glory evermore.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
serving you whom we adore,
serving you whom we adore.

And hourly blessings from thy hands
Thy thoughts of love reveal.

Still find my thoughts with thee! Topics: The Mercies of God innumerable

each flower and tree reposes,
shade creeps o'er wild and wood:
let us, as night is falling,
on God our maker calling,
give thanks and bless the Giver good.
2 Now all the heavenly splendour
breaks forth in starlight tender
from myriad worlds unknown;
and we, this marvel seeing,
forget our selfish being
for joy of beauty not our own.
3 Though long our mortal blindness
has missed God's loving kindness
and plunged us into strife;
yet when life's day is over,
shall death's fair night discover
the fields of everlasting life. Topics: Evening; Creation; O Gracious Light Used With Tune: INNSBRUCK
