Alpha and Omega
Author: Melanie A. Showalter Hymnal: HP2012 #3 (2012) First Line: O Christ, thou Anchor of my soul Lyrics: O Christ, thou Anchor of my soul,
Blest Bread from heaven, like manna given,
My Comforter and Cornerstone,
Defender, when I stand alone—
Eternal Life, I give the whole,
My mind and feelings, flesh and soul.
O Christ, Thou Friend to faithless men
Great God so glorious, on earth victorious,
Our Helper and our Healing One,
I come to Thee, Incarnate Son,
And joy to know Thee as I can:
The Justifier of all men.
O King of Kings, in light enshrined,
Though Lord, yet lowly, a Monarch holy,
Yet Thou art merciful and mild;
Unworthy as Thy feeble child,
In Thee, Name o'er all names combined,
An Offering complete I find.
What perfect Prince of Peace Thou art!
Quench wrong ambition and make me listen
To quiet queries of Thy wind;
Restore my soul when I have sinned;
Reign Thou, Redeemer, in my heart,
That from Thy rule I would not part!
O Sun most bright, Thou Source of love,
Salvation's story glows with Thy glory;
Teacher of truth and testament,
Unfold to me Thy covenant:
Thou Unction of the God above,
Unloose Thy shoe and seal my love!
Veil rent for me, Thy vict'ry's won!
I view with wonder and daily ponder
Thy wisdom, for Thou art the Word,
Expressing all of God the Lord;
Teach me Thy meekness, Yielded Son;
Temper my zeal, O Zealous One! Languages: English
Alpha and Omega
O God of Youth
Author: Sarah S. Kraybill Hymnal: HP2012 #36 (2012) Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: O God of Isaac and of Abraham Lyrics: O God of Isaac and of Abraham,
Unchanging Lord, Thou art the great I Am!
There is no age Thou dost not understand;
Let youth be shadowed by Thy steady Hand.
Stay Thou our eager feet when we would rush;
Replace impatient zeal with trusting hush.
Lord, spare us from the folly of demand!
He runs more fleet who waits for Thy command.
When sheep once Thine have strayed without the fold,
When those we trusted falter and grow cold,
When hopes are frayed, we would not be unmoored.
Support us through life’s disappointments, Lord!
Life is too serious to be idled past;
Ourselves too weak, eternity too vast.
Mere feelings will not keep the youth secure.
Thou art our Rock; by faith we shall endure!
Safe in Thy will, what courage fills the soul!
What strength is ours, when Thou art in control!
Lead as Thou led the sons of Abraham,
O God of youth, O Thou the great I Am! Languages: English
O God of Youth
