Author: Johann Steuerlein; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The old year now hath passed away;
We thank Thee, O our God, today
That Thou hast kept us through the year
When danger and distress were near.
2. We pray Thee, O eternal Son,
Who with the Father reign’st as One,
To guard and rule Thy Christendom
Through all the ages yet to come.
3. Take not Thy saving Word away,
Our souls’ true comfort, staff, and stay.
Abide with us and keep us free
From errors, following only Thee.
4. Oh, help us to forsake all sin,
A new and holier course begin!
Mark not what once was done amiss;
A happier, better year be this,
5. Wherein as Christians we may live
Or die in peace that Thou canst give,
To rise again when Thou shalt come
And enter Thine eternal home.
6. There shall we thank Thee and adore
With all the angels evermore.

Lord Jesus Christ! Thy precious blood

Is to my soul the highest good:
Of all my sins a perfect cure,
It quickens me and makes me pure.

Thy innocence, my righteousness:
Before my God I pardoned stand,
And enter, crowned, the heav'nly land.
3 Lord Jesus Christ, Thou Son of God!
My Throne of Grace, my Staff and Rod!
Thy precious blood, Thy quick'ning power
My spirit strengthen every hour.

In fear of Satan, hell, and death;

Thy blood from sin hath made me free! Topics: The Church Year Passion; Twentieth Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: WEIMAR (Herr Jesu Christ, dich zu uns wend)

O Christ, our true and only Light
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 96 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our true and only Light,
Illumine those who sit in night;
Let those afar now hear Thy voice
And in Thy fold with us rejoice.
2 Fill with the radiance of Thy grace
The souls now lost in error's maze,
And all, O Lord, whose secret minds
Some dark delusion hurts and blinds.
3 And all who else have strayed from Thee,
O gently seek! Thy healing be
To every wounded conscience given,
And let them also share Thy heaven.
4 O make the deaf to hear Thy Word,
And teach the dumb to speak, dear Lord,
Who dare not yet the faith avow,
Though secretly they hold it now.
5 Shine on the darkened and the cold,
Recall the wanderers to Thy fold.
Unite those now who walk apart,
Confirm the weak and doubting heart.
6 So they with us may evermore
Such grace with wondering thanks adore,
And endless praise to Thee be given,
By all Thy Church in earth and heaven.
Amen. Used With Tune: WEIMAR

O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 85 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace,
Thou brightness of Thy Father's face,
Thou fountain of eternal light,
Whose beams disperse the shades of night!
2 Come, holy Sun of heavenly love,
Send down Thy radiance from above,
And to our inmost hearts convey
The Holy Spirit's cloudless ray.
3 And we the Father's help will claim,
And sing the Father's glorious name:
His powerful succor we implore,
That we may stand, to fall no more.
4 May He our actions deign to bless,
And loose the bonds of wickedness,
From sudden falls our feet defend,
And guide us safely to the end.
5 May faith, deep-rooted in the soul,
The flesh subdue, the mind control:
May guile depart, and discord cease,
And all within be joy and peace.
6 Oh, hallowed thus be every day!
Let meekness be our morning ray,
And faithful love our noonday light,
And hope our sunset, calm and bright.
7 O Christ, with each returning morn
Thine image to our hearts is borne:
Oh, may we ever clearly see
Our Saviour and our God in Thee! Topics: Worship Morning; Christ Light; Light., prayed for; Prayer General Petition Used With Tune: LORD JESUS CHRIST, BE PRESENT NOW
