O Spirit of the living God
Author: J. Montgomery (1771-1854) Appears in 378 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Spirit of the living God,
in all the fullness of your grace,
wherever human foot have trod,
descend upon our fallen race.
2 Give tongues of fire and hearts of love
to preach the reconciling word;
anoint with power from heaven above
whenever gospel truth is heard.
3 Let darkness turn to radiant light,
confusion vanish from your path;
those who are weak inspire with might:
let mercy triumph over wrath!
4 O Spirit of the God, prepare
the whole wide world the Lord to meet;
breathe out new life, like morning air,
till hearts of stone begin to beat:
5 Baptize the nations; far and near
the triumphs of the cross record;
till Christ is glory shall appear
and every race declare him Lord! (Amen.)

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 353 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Forth in your name, O Lord, I go
my daily labor to pursue
you only, Lord, resolved to know
in all I think or speak or do.
2 The task your wisdom has assigned
here let me cheerfully fulfill,
in all my work your presence find
and prove your good and perfect will.
3 You may I set at my right hand,
whose eyes my inmost secrets view,
and labor on at your command
and offer all my work to you.
4 Help me to bear your easy yoke,
in every moment watch and pray,
and still to things eternal look
and hasten to that glorious day.
5 Then with delight may I employ
all that your bounteous grace has given,
and run my earthly course with joy,
and closely walk with you to heaven.
Amen.

Eternal Monarch, King most high
Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Eternal Monarch, King most high,
Whose blood hath brought redemption nigh,
By whom the death of Death was wrought
And conquering grace’s battle fought:
2 Ascending to the throne of might,
And seated at the Father’s right,
All power in heaven is Jesu’s own,
That here his manhood had not known.
3 Yea, angels tremble when they see
How changed is our humanity;
That flesh hath purged what flesh had stained,
And God, the flesh of God, hath reigned.
4 Be thou our joy and strong defence,
Who art our future recompense:
So shall the light that springs from thee
Be ours through all eternity.
5 O risen Christ, ascended Lord,
All praise to thee let earth accord,
Who art, while endless ages run,
With Father and with Spirit One.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Year Ascensiontide; Office Hymn Used With Tune: GONFALON ROYAL Text Sources: Latin, c. 5th century

New every morning is the love
Author: John Keble, 1792-1866 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 372 hymnals Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love
our wakening and uprising prove;
through sleep and darkness safely brought,
restored to life and power and thought.
2 New mercies, each returning day,
hover around us while we pray;
new perils past, new sins forgiven,
new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.
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 ought to ask,
room to deny ourselves, a road
to bring us daily nearer God.
5 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. Topics: Morning; Lent II Year B; Lent III Year A Scripture: Hebrews 4:9 Used With Tune: GONFALON ROYAL

the flying cloud, the frosty light:
the year is dying in the night;
ring out, wild bells, and let it die.
2 Ring out the old, ring in the new,
ring, happy bells, across the snow:
the year is going, let it go;
ring out the false, ring in the true.
3 Ring out the grief that saps the mind
for those that here we see no more;
ring out the feud of rich and poor;
ring in redress to humankind.
4 Ring out false pride in place and blood,
the civic slander and the spite;
ring in the love of truth and right;
ring in the common love of good.
