God Moves in a Mysterious Way
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #412 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Faith and Aspiration Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way
great wonders to perform;
God plants firm footsteps in the sea
and rides upon the storm.
2 Deep in unfathomable mines
of never-failing skill
God floods the earth with bright designs,
guards with a sovereign will.
3 O fearful saints, fresh courage take,
the clouds you so much dread
Are big with mercy and shall break
in blessings on your head.
4 Judge not God's way through human sense,
but trust unfailing grace;
behind a frowning providence
there shines a smiling face.
5 God's purposes will ripen fast,
unfolding every hour;
The bud may have a bitter taste,
but sweet will be the flower.
6 Blind unbelief is sure to err
and scan God's work in vain;
God is God's own interpreter,
whose truth shall be made plain. Scripture: Romans 11:33-36 Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE

By Gracious Powers

and confidently waiting, come what may,
We know that God is with us night and morning,
and never fails to greet us each new day.
2 Yet is this heart by its old foe tormented,
still evil days bring burdens, hard to bear;
O give our frightened souls the sure salvation
for which, O Lord, you taught us to prepare.
3 And when this cup you give is filled to brimming
with bitter sorrow, hard to understand,
We take it thankfully and without trembling,
out of so good and so beloved a hand.
4 Yet when again in this same world You give us
the joy we had, the brightness of your sun,
We shall remember all the days we lived through,
and our whole life shall then be yours alone. Scripture: Romans 8:31-39 Languages: English Tune Title: BONHOEFFER

O for a Closer Walk with God
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #437 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Faith and Aspiration Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God,
a calm and heav'nly frame,
a light to shine upon the road
that leads me to the Lamb.
2 Return, O Holy Dove, return,
sweet messenger of rest;
I hate the sins that made thee mourn
and drove thee from my breast.
3 The dearest idol I have known,
whate'er that idol be,
help me to tear it from thy throne
and worship only thee.
4 So shall my walk be close with God,
calm and serene my frame,
so purer light shall mark the road
that leads me to the Lamb.

O Light That Knew No Dawn
Author: Gregory Nazianzen; J. Brownlie Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #439 (1985) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Faith and Aspiration Lyrics: 1 O light that knew no dawn,
that shines to endless day,
all things in earth and heav'n
are lustred by thy ray;
no eye can to thy throne ascend,
nor mind thy brightness comprehend.
2 Thy grace, O Father, give,
that I may serve in fear;
above all gifts, I pray,
grant me thy voice to hear;
from sin thy child in mercy free,
and let me dwell in light with thee,
3 that cleansed from stain of sin,
I may glad homage give,
and, pure in heart, behold
thy beauty while I live,
clean hands in holy worship raise,
and thee, O Christ my Saviour, praise.
4 In supplication meek
to thee I bend the knee;
O Christ, when thou shalt come,
In love remember me,
and in thy kingdom, by thy grace,
grant me a humble servant's place.
5 Thy grace, O Father, give,
I humbly thee implore;
and let thy mercy bless
thy servant more and more.
All grace and glory be to thee,
from age to age eternally.
Scripture: Psalm 24:4 Languages: English Tune Title: EASTVIEW

Make Me a Captive, Lord
Author: George Matheson Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #442 (1985) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Faith and Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord,
and then I shall be free;
force me to render up my sword,
and I shall conqueror be.
2 I sink in life's alarms
when by myself I stand;
imprison me within thine arms,
and strong shall be my hand.
3 My heart is weak and poor
until it master find;
it has no spring of action sure--
it varies with the wind.
4 It cannot freely move
till thou hast wrought its chain;
enslave it with thy matchless love,
and deathless it shall reign.
5 My will is not my own
till thou hast made it thine;
if it would reach a monarch's throne,
it must its crown resign.

Come Down, O Love Divine
Author: Bianco of Siena; R. F. Littledale Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #444 (1985) Meter: 6.6.11 D Topics: Faith and Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Come down, O Love divine,
seek thou this soul of mine,
and visit it with thine own ardor glowing;
O Comforter, draw near,
within my heart appear,
and kindle it, thy holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
and let thy glorious light
shine ever on my sight,
and clothe me round, the while my path illuming.
3 And so the yearning strong
with which the soul will long,
shall far outpass the power of human telling;
for none can guess its grace,
till he become the place
wherein the Holy Spirit makes his dwelling.
