In all Thy works, and Thee alone;
Thee will I love, till the pure fire
Fills my whole soul with chaste desire.
2 I thank Thee, uncreated Sun,
That Thy bright beams on me have shined;
I thank Thee, who hast overthrown
My foes, and healed my wounded mind;
I thank Thee, whose enlivening voice
Bids my freed heart in Thee rejoice.
3 Thee will I love, my joy, my crown;
Thee will I love, my Lord, my God;
Thee will I love, beneath Thy frown,
Or smile, Thy sceptre, or Thy rod;
What though my flesh and heart decay,
Thee shall I love in endless day! Used With Tune: PATER OMNIUM

Awake, my soul, stretch ev'ry nerve
Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 1,065 hymnals Topics: The Christian Race Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, stretch ev'ry nerve,
And press with vigor on;
A heav'nly race demands thy zeal,
And an immortal crown,
And an immortal crown.
2 A cloud of witnesses around
Hold thee in full survey;
Forget the steps already trod,
And onward urge thy way,
And onward urge thy way.
3 'Tis God's all-animating voice
That calls thee from on high;
'Tis his own hand presents the prize
To thine aspiring eye,
To thine aspiring eye.
4 That prize with peerless glories bright,
Which shall new lustre boast,
When victors' wreaths and monarch's gems
Shall blend in common dust,
Shall blend in common dust.
5 Blest Saviour, introduced by thee,
Have I my race begun;
And, crowned with vict'ry, at thy feet
I'll lay my honors down,
I'll lay my honors down.
Amen. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 9:24-25 Used With Tune: CHRISTMAS

'Tis by the Faith of Joys to come
Appears in 300 hymnals Topics: Zeal in the Christian Race Lyrics: 1 'Tis by the Faith of Joys to come
We walk through Desarts dark as Night;
Till we arrive at Heav'n our Home,
Faith is our Guide, and Faith our Light.
2 The Want of Sight she well supplies,
She makes the pearly Gates appear;
Far into distant Worlds she pries,
And brings eternal Glories near.
3 Chearful we tread the Desart through,
While Faith inspires a heav'nly Ray;
Though Lions roar, and Tempests blow,
And Rocks and Dangers fill the Way.
4 So Abra'm, by Divine Command,
Left his own House to walk with God;
His Faith beheld the promis'd Land,
And fir'd his Zeal along the Road.
'Tis by the Faith of Joys to come

God, we pray with one accord;
for a just and equal sharing
of the things that earth affords.
To a life of love in action
help us rise and pledge our word.
2 Lead us forward into freedom,
from despair your world release;
that, redeemed from war and hatred,
all may come and go in peace.
Show us how through care and goodness
fear will die and hope increase.
3 All that kills abundant living,
let it from the earth be banned;
pride of status, race or schooling,
dogmas that obscure your plan.
In our common quest for justice
may we hallow life's brief span.
4 You, Creator God, have written
your great name on humankind;
for our growing in your likeness
bring the life of Christ to mind,
that by our response and service
earth its destiny may find. Used With Tune: WESTMINSTER ABBEY

Awake, our Souls, away our Fears
Appears in 405 hymnals Topics: Zeal in the Christian Race Lyrics: 1 Awake our Souls, (away our Fears,
Let ev'ry trembling Thought be gone)
Awake, and run the heav'nly Race,
And put a chearful Courage on.
2 True, 'tis a straight and thorny Road,
And mortal Spirits tire and faint;
But they forget the mighty God,
That feeds the Strength of ev'ry Saint.
3 O mighty God, whose matchless Pow'r
Is ever new, and ever young,
And firm endures, while endless Years
Their everlasting Circles run.
4 From Thee, the overflowing Spring,
Our Souls shall drink a fresh Supply,
While such as trust their native Strength,
Shall melt away, and droop, and die.
5 Swift as an Eagle cuts the Air,
We'll mount aloft to thine Abode;
On Wings of Love our Souls shall fly,
Nor tire amidst the heav'nly Road. Scripture: Isaiah 40:28-31
Awake, our Souls, away our Fears
