My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less
Author: Edward Mote Meter: 8.8.8.8 with refrain Appears in 1,083 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:46-49 Refrain First Line: On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand Lyrics: 1 My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.
Refrain:
On Christ, the solid Rock I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
2 When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil. (Refrain)
3 His oath, His covenant, His blood
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay. (Refrain)
4 When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh may I then in Him be found,
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne. (Refrain)

If Thou but Trust in God to Guide Thee
Author: Georg Neumark; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 179 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:48 Lyrics: 1 If thou but trust in God to guide thee,
with hopeful heart through all thy ways,
God will give strength, whate'er betide thee,
to bear thee through the evil days.
Who trusts in God's unchanging love
builds on the rock that nought can move.
2 Only be still, and wait God's leisure
in cheerful hope, with heart content
to take whate'er thy Keeper's pleasure
and all-discerning love hath sent.
No doubt our inmost wants are clear
to One who holds us always dear.
3 Sing, pray, and swerve not from God's ways,
but do thine own part faithfully.
Trust the rich promises of grace;
so shall they be fulfilled in thee.
God never yet forsook at need
the soul secured by trust indeed. Topics: Grace; Guidance; Hope; Living and Dying in Christ; Temptation; Trust Used With Tune: WER NUR DEN LIEBEN GOTT

Cradled in a manger, meanly

Cradled in a manger, meanly
We must be merciful and kind
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:36-42 Lyrics: 1 We must be merciful and kind,
If we possess the Saviours mind;
In enmity we dare not live,
But freely pardon and forgive.
2 The soul with spite and wrath oppress'd
Can ne'er attain to peace and rest!
But slavish fear, and guilt and pain,
Must ever on that heart remain.
3 Dare we a right to heaven claim,
Though we profess the Christian name;
Whilst we still lack the nobler part,
The love of God to rule the heart.
4 To love our friends, and them alone,
That would be net to loving none;
To love a friend, but not a foe,
Such love hath ev'ry Heathen too.
5 But O, it is a diff'rent case
With those, who are the sons of grace!
Not eye for eye, nor tooth for tooth,
Say they, who love the word of truth.
6 What ill in other men I see,
The very same I find in me;
For when I search myself within,
I find the best I do is sin.
Topics: Fourth Sunday after Trinity

O sacred head sore wounded
Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-76; Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091-1153; James Waddell Alexander, 1804-59 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 724 hymnals Scripture: Luke 6:36-49 Lyrics: 1 O sacred head sore wounded,
with grief and shame weighed down;
O kingly head surrounded
with thorns your only crown;
death's shadows rise before you,
the glow of life decays;
yet hosts of heaven adore you
and tremble as they gaze.
2 What language shall I borrow
to praise you, heavenly friend,
for this your dying sorrow,
your mercy without end?
Such agony and dying!
Such love to sinners free!
O Christ, all grace supplying,
turn now your face on me.
3 In this your bitter Passion,
good Shepherd, think of me,
look on me with compassion,
unworthy though I be:
beneath your cross abiding
for ever would I rest,
in your dear love confiding,
and with your presence blessed.
4 Lord, be my consolation,
my shield when death is near;
remind me of your Passion,
be with me when I fear.
My eyes shall then behold you,
upon your cross shall dwell,
my heart by faith enfold you;
and who dies thus, dies well.

by some clear, winning word of love;
teach me the wayward feet to stay,
and guide them in the homeward way.
3 Teach me thy patience, still with thee
in closer, dearer company,
in work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
in trust that triumphs over wrong.

far down the future's broadening way;
in peace that only thou canst give,
with thee, O Master, let me live. Topics: Christian Life; Discipleship and Mission; Hope; Ministry; Personal Peace Used With Tune: MARYTON
