Our Fathers' God

Author: T. H. Gill Hymnal: The Y.M.C.A. Hymnal #26 (1910) First Line: We come unto our fathers' God Languages: English Tune Title: LAUS SEMPITERNA

Author: T. H. Gill, 1819-1906 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #40 (1917) Lyrics: 1. We come unto our fathers' God: Their Rock is our Salvation: The eternal arms, their dear abode, We make our habitation: We bring Thee, Lord, the praise they brought, We seek Thee as Thy saints have In every generation. 2. The fire divine, their steps that led, Still goeth bright before us; The heavenly shield, around them spread, Is still high holden o'er us; The grace those sinners that subdued, The strength those weaklings that renewed, Doth vanquish, doth restore us. 3. The cleaving sins that brought them low Are still our souls oppressing; The tears that from their eyes did flow Fall fast, our shame confessing; As with Thee, Lord, prevailed their cry, So our strong prayer ascends on high, And bringeth down Thy blessing. 4. Their joy unto their Lord we bring; Their song to us descendeth; The Spirit who in them did sing To us His music lendeth. His song in them, in us, is one; We raise it high, we send it on The song that never endeth! 5. Ye saints of God, take up the strain The same sweet theme endeavour! Unbroken be the golden chain! Ring out the song for ever! Safe in the same dear dwelling-place, Rich with the same eternal grace, Bless the same boundless Giver!

Sing praise to God who reigns above

Author: Johann J Schütz 1650-90; Frances E Cox 1812-97 Hymnal: Praise! psalms hymns and songs for Christian worship #261 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God Who reigns above, the God of all creation, the God of power, the God of love, the God of our salvation; with healing balm my soul he fills and every faithless murmur stills: to God all praise and glory! 2 What God's almighty power has made is ever in his keeping, by early dawn or evening shade his watchful eye unsleeping; within the kingdom of his might, his wisdom governs all aright— to God all praise and glory! 3 I cried to him in time of need: the Lord God heard my calling! For death he gave me life indeed and kept my feet from falling. For this my thanks shall endless be; O thank him, thank our God, with me— to God all praise and glory! 4 The Lord will not forsake his flock, his chosen generation; he is their refuge and their rock, their peace and their salvation. As with a mother's tender hand he leads his own, his chosen band: to God all praise and glory! 5 Then come before his presence now and banish fear and sadness; to your redeemer pay your vow and sing with joy and gladness: though great distress my soul befell, the Lord, my God, did all things well— to God all praise and glory!
