Hymn 81
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 613 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:23 First Line: God, how endless is thy love! Lyrics:
God, how endless is thy love!
Thy gifts are every evening new;
And morning mercies from above
Gently distil like early dew.
Thou spread'st the curtains of the night,
Great guardian of my sleeping hours;
Thy sovereign word restores the light,
And quickens all my drowsy powers.
I yield my powers to thy command,
To thee I consecrate my days;
Perpetual blessings from thine hand
Demand perpetual songs of praise.
Hymn 81
New Every Morning Is the Love
Author: John Keble Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 360 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:23 Lyrics: 1 New ev'ry morning is the love
our waking and uprising prove;
through sleep and darkness safely brought,
restored to life, and pow'r, and thought.
2 New mercies each returning day
hover around us while we pray;
new perils past, new sins forgiv'n,
new thoughts of God, new hopes of heav'n.
3 If on our daily course our mind
be set to hallow all we find,
new treasures still of countless price
God will provide for sacrifice.
4 The trivial round, the common task
will furnish all we need or ask:
room to deny ourselves, a road
to bring us daily nearer God.
5 Seek we no more; content with these,
let present rapture, comfort, ease
as God shall bid them, come and go--
the secret, this, of rest below.
6 Only, O Lord, in thy dear love
fit us for perfect rest above,
and help us this and every day
to live more nearly as we pray.

The wormwood and the gall;
Go, spread your trophies at his feet,
And crown him Lord of all.

On this terrestrial ball,
To him all majesty ascribe,
And crown him Lord of all.

We at his feet may fall!
We'll join the everlasting song,
And crown him Lord of all. Topics: Christ Intercession and Reign; The Coronation

'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them, Lord, to thee
Author: Henry Montague Butler (1833-1918) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 69 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:41 Lyrics: 1 'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them, Lord, to thee;
here at thy feet none other may we see:
'Lift up your hearts!' Even so, with one accord,
we lift them up, we lift them to the Lord.
2 Above the level of the former years,
the mire of sin, the slough of guilty fears,
the mist of doubt, the blight of love's decay,
O Lord of light, lift all our hearts today!
3 Lift every gift that thou thyself hast given;
low lies the best till lifted up to heaven:
low lie the bounding heart, the teeming brain,
till, sent from God, they mount to God again.
4 Then, as the trumpet-call in after years,
'Lift up your hearts!' rings pealing in our ears,
still shall those hearts respond with full accord,
'We lift them up, we lift them to the Lord!' Topics: Our Response to Christ In Discipleship; The Church Celebrates Holy Communion; Dedication of people; Despair and Trouble; Holy Communion Used With Tune: WOODLANDS

we own your mercies, Lord, which never fail.

with us abide.
Lead us by faith to hope's true Promised Land;
be now our guide.
With you to bless, the darkness shines as light,
and faith's fair vision changes into sight.
3 God of the coming years, thro' paths unknown
we follow you;
when we are strong, Lord, leave us not alone;
our faith renew.
Be now for us in life our daily bread,
our heart's true home when all our years have sped. Topics: Passing Days; God Faithfulness; God Guide; Trust; Changing Year Used With Tune: SANDON

Countless Mercies
Author: Flora Kirkland Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:32 First Line: Are you heavy-laden and with sorrow tried? Refrain First Line: Countless mercies! such a boundless store Lyrics: 1 Are you heavy-laden and with sorrow tried?
Stop and look to Jesus, Helper, Friend and Guide;
Think of all his mercies; such a boundless store!
Tears will change to praises as you count them o’er.
Refrain:
Countless mercies! such a boundless store!
Countless mercies! pressed and running o’er!
Countless mercies! try to count them o’er
Till you gaze in wonder at your boundless store.
2 Think of hidden dangers he hath brought you thro’;
Think of all the burdens he hath borne for you;
Count his words of comfort in your deepest need;
Count the times when Jesus proved a Friend indeed. [Refrain]
3 Does your pathway darken ‘neath a cloud of fear?
Count your many mercies; dry each bitter tear.
Even ‘mid the shadows trust him without fear;
“Home will be the sweeter for the dark down here.” [Refrain]
4 As he looks from heaven now on you and me,
Don’t you know he chooseth what each day shall be?
Trust his loving wisdom, though the hot tears start,
Give to him the incense of a grateful heart. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Are you heavy-laden and with sorrow tried?]
