Where rest but on your faithful word? None ever called on you in vain; Give peace, O God, give peace again! 3 Where saints and angels dwell above, All hearts are joined in holy love; O bind us in that heav'nly chain; Give peace, O God, give peace again!

O God, Our Help in Ages Past

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 1,268 hymnals Topics: In Time of War/Disaster Lyrics: 1 O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home. 2 Beneath the shadow of your throne Your saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is your arm alone, And our defence is sure. 3 Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received its frame, From everlasting you are God, To endless years the same. 4 A thousand ages in your sight Are like an ev'ening gone, Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. 5 Time, like an ever rolling stream, Bears all our lives away; They fly, forgotten, as a dream Dies at the op'ning day. 6 O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be now our guide while life shall last, And our eternal home. Scripture: Psalm 90 Used With Tune: ST. ANNE

Now Know We Not the Meaning of Life's Sorrow

Author: Margaret Clarkson Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: In Time of War/Disaster Lyrics: 1 Now know we not the meaning of life's sorrow, Now know we not the pattern God has planned, But comes the dawn of his all-glorious morrow, Then shall we know; then shall we understand. Now know we but in part our life's long story, Now see we through a darkened glass and dim: Then shall we see our God in all his glory, Then shall we know as we are known of him. 2 Now know we but the sorrow and the sadness, Now know we but the loneliness and loss: Then shall we know the glory and the gladness, The crown shall rise in triumph o'er the cross. Then shall we know the love that passes measure, Then shall we read the mysteries of grace; Then shall we know eternal truth and treasure; Then shall we see our Savior face to face! Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:2-13 Used With Tune: FINLANDIA

Jehovah hears when Israel prays, And brings deliverance from on high. 2 The name of Jacob's God defends, When bucklers fail and brazen walls; He from his sanctuary sends Succour and strength when Zion calls. 3 Well he remembers all our sighs, His love exceeds our best deserts; His love accepts the sacrifice Of humble groans and broken hearts. 4 In his salvation is our hope, And in the name of Israel's God Our troops shall lift their banners up, Our natives spread their flags abroad. 5 Some trust in horses train'd for war, And some of chariots make their boasts; Our surest expectations are From thee, the Lord of heavenly hosts. 6 [O may the memory of thy name Inspire our armies for the fight! Our foes shall fall and die with shame, Or quit the field with coward flight.] 7 Now save us, Lord, from slavish fear, Now let our hopes be firm and strong, Till thy salvation shall appear, And joy and triumph raise the song. Scripture: Psalm 20
