We Praise Thee, O God, Our Redeemer, Creator
Author: Julia B. Cady Cory; Unknown Meter: 12.11.12.11 Appears in 157 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We praise Thee, O God, our Redeemer, Creator,
In grateful devotion our tribute we bring;
We lay it before Thee, we kneel and adore Thee;
We bless Thy holy name, glad praises we sing.
2 We worship Thee, God of our fathers, we bless Thee;
Thro' life's storm and tempest our Guide hast Thou been;
When perils o'ertake us, escape Thou wilt make us,
And with Thy help, O Lord, our battles we win.
3 With voices united our praises we offer,
To Thee, great Jehovah, glad anthems we raise.
Thy strong arm will guide us, our God is beside us,
To Thee, our great Redeemer, forever be praise.
Amen.

Who Is This that Comes from Edom
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 103 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Who is this that comes from Edom,
All His raiment stained with blood,
To the slave proclaiming freedom,
Bringing and bestowing good,
Glorious in the garb He wears,
Glorious in the spoil He bears?
2 ’Tis the Savior, now victorious
Trav'ling onward in His might;
’Tis the Savior; oh, how glorious
To His people is the sight!
Satan conquered and the grave,
Jesus now is strong to save.
3 Why that blood His raiment staining?
’Tis the blood of many slain;
Of His foes there’s none remaining,
None the contest to maintain.
Fall'n they are, no more to rise;
All their glory prostrate lies.
4 Mighty Victor, reign forever,
Wear the crown so dearly won;
Never shall Thy people, never
Cease to sing what Thou hast done.
Thou hast fought Thy people’s foes;
Thou wilt heal Thy people’s woes.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Easter Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:10 Used With Tune: NEANDER

With Broken Heart and Contrite Sigh
Author: Cornelius Elven Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 218 hymnals Lyrics: 1 With broken heart and contrite sigh,
A trembling sinner, Lord, I cry.
Thy pard'ning grace is rich and free--
O God, be merciful to me!
2 I smite upon my troubled breast,
With deep and conscious guilt opprest;
Christ and His Cross my only plea--
O God, be merciful to me!
3 Far off I stand with tearful eyes
Nor dare uplift them to the skies;
But Thou dost all my anguish see--
O God, be merciful to me!
4 Nor alms nor deeds that I have done
Can for a single sin atone.
To Calvary alone I flee--
O God, be merciful to me!
5 And when, redeemed from sin and hell,
With all the ransomed throng I dwell,
My raptured song shall ever be:
God has been merciful to me.
Amen. Topics: Confession and Absolution Scripture: Luke 18:13 Used With Tune: ST. LUKE

Jesus, Thou Art Mine Forever
Author: Matthias Loy Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou art mine forever,
Dearer far than earth to me;
Neither life nor death shall sever
Those sweet ties which bind to Thee.
2 All were drear to me and lonely
If Thy presence gladdened not;
While I sing to Thee, Thee only,
Mine’s an ever blissful lot.
3 Thou alone art all my Treasure,
Who hast died that I may live;
Thou conferrest noblest pleasure,
Who dost all my sins forgive.
4 Brightest gems and fairest flowers
Lose their beauty in Thy frown;
Joy and peace, like balmy showers,
In Thy smile come gently down.
5 Jesus, Thou art mine forever;
Never suffer me to stray.
Let me in my weakness never
Cast my priceless pearl away.
6 Lamb of God, I do implore Thee,
Guard, support me, lest I fall.
Let me evermore adore Thee;
Be my everlasting All.
Amen. Topics: The Redeemer Scripture: Psalm 73:24 Used With Tune: STUTTGART

Thy Ways, O Lord, with Wise Design
Author: Ambrose Searle Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 85 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thy ways, O Lord, with wise design,
Are framed upon Thy throne above,
And ev'ry dark and bending line,
Meets in the center of Thy love.
2 With feeble light, and half obscure
Poor mortals Thine arrangements view,
Not knowing that the least are sure,
And, the mysterious just and true.
3 Thy flock, Thine own peculiar care,
Tho' now they seem to roam uneyed,
Are led or driven only where
They best and safest may abide.
4 They neither know nor trace the way:
But whilst they trust Thy guardian eye,
Their feet shall ne'er to ruin stray,
Nor shall the weakest fail or die.
5 My favored soul shall meekly learn
To lay her reason at Thy throne;
Too weak Thy secrets to discern,
I'll trust Thee for my Guide alone.
Amen. Topics: Cross and Comfort Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:12 Used With Tune: ST. LUKE

We Sing the Praise of Him Who Died
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 192 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We sing the praise of Him who died,
Of Him who died upon the cross;
The sinner's Hope let all deride,
For this we count the world but loss.
2 Inscribed upon that cross we see
In shining letters, "God is Love."
He bears our sins upon the tree,
He brings us mercy from above.
3 The cross!--it takes our guilt away,
It holds the fainting spirit up,
It cheers with hope the gloomy day,
And sweetens ev'ry bitter cup.
4 It makes the coward spirit brave
And nerves the feeble arm for fight;
It takes all terror from the grave
And gilds the bed of death with light.
5 The balm of life, the cure of woe,
The measure and the pledge of love,
The sinners' refuge here below,
The angels' theme in heaven above.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Good Friday Scripture: Galatians 6:14 Used With Tune: O JESU CHRIST, MEIN'S

Bless Him ever
For salvation,
Give Him praise and adoration.
