Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #218 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7 First Line: Strengthen for service, Lord, the hands Lyrics: 1 Strengthen for service, Lord, the hands
That holy things have taken;
And let the ears that heard your Word
To falsehood never waken.
2 The tongues that sang your holy name
Now purge of all deception;
Keep bright the eyes that saw your love
And sharpen their perception.
3 And may the feet that walked your courts
Be never lured to wander;
But lead the faithful nourished here
To journey on in splendor. Topics: Holy Communion; Holy Communion; Witness Languages: English Tune Title: WIR DIENEN, HERR
