Amazing Grace!
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807; Anonymous Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,424 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:36-39 First Line: Amazing grace! how sweet the sound Lyrics: 1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound
that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
was blind but now I see.
2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
and grace my fears relieved;
how precious did that grace appear
the hour I first believed!
3 The Lord has promised good to me,
his word my hope secures;
he will my shield and portion be
as long as life endures.
4 Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.
5 When we've been there ten thousand years,
bright shining as the sun,
we've no less days to sing God's praise
than when we'd first begun. Topics: Grace Through Faith; Promise & Hope Used With Tune: NEW BRITAIN

O for a heart to praise my God
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,162 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:38 Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God,
a heart from sin set free;
a heart that's sprinkled with the blood
so freely shed for me:
2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek,
my great Redeemer's throne;
where only Christ is heard to speak,
where Jesus reigns alone:
3 A humble, lowly, contrite heart,
believing, true, and clean,
which neither life nor death can part
from him that dwells within:
4 A heart in every thought renewed,
and full of love divine;
perfect and right and pure and good —
a copy, Lord, of thine.
5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart,
come quickly from above;
write thy new name upon my heart,
thy new best name of Love. Topics: Lent I Year C; Lent III Year B; Proper 8 Year A; Proper 17 Year C Used With Tune: STOCKTON

Yield Not to Temptation
Author: Horatio R. Palmer Appears in 729 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:37 Refrain First Line: Ask the Savior to help you Lyrics: 1 Yield not to temptation,
For yielding is sin,
Each vict’ry will help you
Some other to win;
Fight manfully onward,
Dark passions subdue,
Look ever to Jesus,
He will carry you through.
Chorus:
Ask the Savior to help you,
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you,
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.
2 Shun evil companions,
Bad language disdain,
God’s name hold in rev’rence,
Nor take it in vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest,
Kindhearted and true,
Look ever to Jesus,
He will carry you through. (Chorus)
3 To him that o’ercometh
God giveth a crown,
Thro' faith we will conquer,
Though often cast down;
He, who is our Savior,
Our strength will renew,
Look ever to Jesus,
He will carry you through. (Chorus)

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
Author: Martin Luther; Frederick Henry Hedge Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 676 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:35-39 Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing;
our helper he, amid the flood
of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe
does seek to work us woe;
his craft and power are great,
and armed with cruel hate,
on earth is not his equal.
2 Did we in our own strength confide,
our striving would be losing,
were not the right Man on our side,
the Man of God's own choosing.
You ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is he;
Lord Sabaoth his name,
from age to age the same;
and he must win the battle.
3 And though this world, with devils filled,
should threaten to undo us,
we will not fear, for God has willed
his truth to triumph through us.
The prince of darkness grim,
we tremble not for him;
his rage we can endure,
for lo! his doom is sure;
one little word shall fell him.
4 That Word above all earthly powers–
no thanks to them– abideth;
the Spirit and the gifts are ours
through him who with us sideth.
Let goods and kindred go,
this mortal life also;
the body they may kill:
God's truth abideth still;
his kingdom is forever!

All the Way My Savior Leads Me
Author: Fanny J. Crosby Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 319 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:28 Lyrics: 1 All the way my Savior leads me;
what have I to ask beside?
Can I doubt His tender mercy,
who through life has been my guide?
Heavenly peace, divinest comfort,
here by faith in him to dwell,
for I know, whate’er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well;
for I know, whate’er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well.
2 All the way my Savior leads me,
cheers each winding path I tread,
gives me grace for every trial,
feeds me with the living bread;
though my weary steps may falter,
and my soul athirst may be,
gushing from the rock before me,
lo! a spring of joy I see;
gushing from the rock before me,
lo! a spring of joy I see.
3 All the way my Savior leads me;
O the fullness of His love!
Perfect rest to me is promised
in my Father’s house above;
when my spirit, clothed immortal,
wings its flight to realms of day,
this my song through endless ages,
"Jesus led me all the way";
this my song through endless ages,
"Jesus led me all the way."

God Is My Strong Salvation
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 288 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:31 Lyrics: 1 God is my strong salvation;
What foe have I to fear?
In darkness and temptation
My Light, my Help is near.
Tho' hosts encamp around me,
Firm to the fight I stand;
What terror can confound me,
With God at my right hand?
2 Place on the Lord reliance;
My soul, with courage wait;
His truth be thine affiance,
When faint and desolate.
His might your heart shall strengthen,
His love your joy increase;
Mercy your days shall lengthen;
The Lord will give thee peace.
Amen. Topics: God the Father Care and Guidance Used With Tune: WEDLOCK
