Lord God of Hosts, in Mercy

Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: House of God Lyrics: 1 Lord God of hosts, in mercy My supplication hear; Almighty and all-faithful, Our fathers' God, give ear; Our Shield and great Defender, No longer hide Thy face, But look upon Thy servant, Anointed by Thy grace. 2 In Thy blest courts to worship, My God, a single day Is better than a thousand While far from Thee I stray. Though in a lowly station, the service of my Lord I choose above all pleasures That sinful ways afford. 3 A sun and shield forever Is God, the Lord Most High; To those who walk uprightly No good will He deny. His saints, His grace receiving, Shall soon His glory see; O Lord of hosts, most blessed Are they that trust in Thee. Scripture: Psalm 84 Used With Tune: CRUX CHRISTI

Jesu, perfect my trust, Strengthen the grasp of my faith: Let me feel Thee near when I stand On the edge of the shore of death; 6 Feel Thee near when my feet Are slipping over the brink; For it may be I'm nearer home, Nearer now than I think. Amen. Used With Tune: JACOBS' CHANT
