Before Jehovah's awful throne
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 975 hymnals Topics: Gpd the Father, the Creator Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah's awesome throne,
Ye nations, bow with sacred joy:
Know that the Lord is God alone;
He can create, and He destroy.
2 His sovereign power, without our aid,
Made us of clay, and formed us men;
And when like wandering sheep we strayed,
He brought us to His fold again.
3 We are His people, we His care,
Our souls and all our mortal frame:
What lasting honors shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to Thy name?
4 We'll crowd Thy gates with thankful songs,
High as the heavens our voices raise;
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
Shall fill Thy courts with sounding praise.
5 Wide as the world is Thy command,
Vast as eternity Thy love;
Firm as a rock Thy truth must stand,
When rolling years shall cease to move. Used With Tune: THE OLD HUNDREDTH
Before Jehovah's awful throne
Lead, Kindly Light
Author: John H. Newman, 1801-1890 Appears in 1,257 hymnals Topics: God the Father His Care and Guidance First Line: Lead, kindly Light, amid th' encircling gloom Lyrics: 1 Lead, kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom,
Lead Thou me on;
The night is dark, and I am far from home,
Lead Thou me on:
Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see
The distant scene--one step enough for me.
2 I was not ever thus, nor prayed that Thou
Shouldst lead me on;
I loved to choose and see my path; but now
Lead Thou me on.
I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
Pride ruled my will: remember not past years.
3 So long Thy power hath blest me, sure it still
Will lead me on,
O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till
The night is gone;
And with the morn those angel faces smile,
Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.
Amen. Used With Tune: LUX BENIGNA

O Thou in Whose Presence
Author: Joseph Swain Meter: 11.8.11.8 Appears in 502 hymnals Topics: God the Father, Creator Praise First Line: O Thou in whose presence my soul takes delight Lyrics: 1 O Thou in whose presence my soul takes delight,
on whom in affliction I call,
my comfort by day, and my song in the night,
my hope, my salvation, my all!
2 Where dost Thou, dear Shepherd, resort with Thy sheep,
to feed them in pastures of love?
Say, why in the valley of death should I weep,
or alone in this wilderness rove?
3 Restore, my dear Savior, the light of Thy face;
Thy soul-cheering comfort impart;
and let the sweet tokens of pardoning grace
bring joy to my desolate heart.
4 He looks! and ten thousands of angels rejoice,
and myriads wait for His word;
He speaks! and eternity, filled with His voice,
re-echoes the praise of the Lord.
5 Dear Shepherd, I hear and will follow Thy call;
I know the sweet sound of Thy voice;
restore and defend me, for Thou art my all;
in Thee I will ever rejoice.

God is love: let earth rejoice;
let creation sing before Him,
and exalt Him with one voice.
He who laid the earth's foundation,
He who spread the heav'ns above,
He who breathes through all creation:
He is love, eternal love.
2 God is love; and He enfoldeth
all the world in one embrace;
with unfailing grasp He holdeth,
ev'ry child of ev'ry race.
And when human hearts are breaking
under sorrow's iron rod,
then they find that selfsame aching
deep within the heart of God.
3 God is love, and though with blindness
sin afflicts the human soul,
God's eternal loving-kindness
guides and heals and makes us whole.
Sin and death and hell shall never
o'er us final triumph gain;
God is love, so love forever
o'er the universe must reign. Scripture: Psalm 102:25 Used With Tune: BEECHER
