My God, I love Thee; not because I hope for Heav’n thereby, Nor yet because who love Thee not May eternally die. 2.

And griefs and torments numberless, And sweat of agony; E’en death itself; and all for man Who was Thine enemy. 4. Then why, O blessèd Jesus Christ Should I not love Thee well? Not for the hope of winning Heaven, Nor of escaping hell. 5. Not with the hope of gaining aught, Nor seeking a reward, But as Thyself hast lovèd me, O everlasting Lord! 6. E’en so I love Thee, and will love, And in Thy praise will sing, Solely because Thou art my God, And my eternal King. Used With Tune: ST. FULBERT Text Sources: Lyra Catholica, 1849

Lord, It Belongs Not to My Care

Author: Richard Baxter, 1615-91 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 258 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care Whether I die or live; To love and serve Thee is my share, And this Thy grace must give. 2 If life be long, I will be glad That I may long obey; If short, yet why should I be sad To soar to endless day? 3 Christ leads me through no darker rooms Than He went through before; He that unto God's kingdom comes Must enter by this door. 4 Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet Thy blessed face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet, What will Thy glory be! 5 Then shall I end my sad complaints And weary, sinful days And join with the triumphant saints Who sing my Savior's praise. 6 My knowledge of that life is small, The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all, And I shall be with Him.

O sing a new song to the Lord

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O sing a new song to the Lord for marvels he has done; his right hand and his holy arm the victory have won. 2 His justice and his righteousness - the Lord has made them known, his contant love for Israel all ends of the earth have seen. 3 Let all the earth now to the Lord send forth a joyful noise; lift up your voice aloud to him, sing praises and rejoice. 4 With harp, with harp and voice of psalms unto Jehovah sing; let trumpets and the echoing horn acclaim the Lord our King! 5 Let seas with all their creatures roar, the world and dwellers there, and let the rivers clap their hands, the hills their joy declare 6 before the Lord: because he comes, to judge the earth comes he; he'll judge the world with righteousness, his folk with equity.

For His the Word which gave you birth, And majesty and might; Praise to the Highest from the earth, And let the deeps unite. 4. O fire and vapor, hail and snow, Ye servants of His will; O stormy winds, that only blow His mandates to fulfill. 5. Mountains and rocks, to Heaven that rise; Fair cedars of the wood; Creatures of life that wing the skies, Or track the plains for food; 6. Judges of nations; kings whose hand Waves the proud scepter high; O youths and virgins of the land, O age and infancy. 7. Praise ye His name, to whom alone All homage should be given, Whose glory from the eternal throne Spreads wide o’er earth and Heaven. Used With Tune: ST.
