your glory fills the night;
your face and garments, like the sun,
shine with unborrowed light.
2 How good, Lord, to be here,
your beauty to behold,
where Moses and Elijah stand,
your messengers of old.
3 Fulfiller of the past,
promise of things to be:
we hail your body glorified,
and our redemption see.
4 Before we taste of death,
we see your Kingdom come;
we still would hold the vision bright,
and make this hill our home.
5 How good, Lord, to be here!
yet we may not remain;
but since you bid us leave the mount
come with us to the plain.

his will is just and holy.
As he directs my life for me
I follow meek and lowly.
My God indeed
in every need
knows well how he will shield me;
to him, then, I will yield me.
2 What God ordains is always good:
he never will deceive me;
he leads me in his own right way,
and never will he leave me.
I take content
what he has sent;
his hand that sends me sadness
will turn my tears to gladness.
3 What God ordains is always good:
his loving thought attends me;
no poison can be in the cup
that my physician sends me.
My God is true;
each morning new
I trust his grace unending,
my life to him commending.
4 What God ordains is always good:
he is my friend and father;
he will not let me come to harm
though many storms may gather.
Now I may know
both joy and woe;
some day I shall see clearly
that he has loved me dearly.
5 What God ordains is always good:
this truth remains unshaken.
Though sorrow, need, or death be mine,
I shall not be forsaken.
I fear no harm,
for with his arm
he shall embrace and shield me;
so to my God I yield me. Topics: Assurance; Providence Scripture: Hebrews 13:5-6 Languages: English Tune Title: WAS GOTT TUT

from sin to release us,
as a servant lowly,
yet our God most holy,
bore the cross to save us,
hope and freedom gave us.
2 Still Christ comes within us,
still his voice would win us
from the sins that hurt us,
would to truth convert us;
from our folly spares us,
and his own declares us.
3 So, as you have known him,
be prepared to own him;
do not spurn him coldly,
but still trust him boldly;
for our Lord receives us,
heals us, and forgives us.
4 Christ, all grace possessing,
comes to us in blessing;
to his Supper leads us,
with himself he feeds us,
love and mercy showing,
peace on us bestowing.
5 Come then, O Lord Jesus,
from our bondage free us,
in your love enfold us,
in true faith uphold us.
Let us here confess you,
till in heaven we bless you.

Entered the holy place above
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: TIS1999 #374 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Person Name: Erik Reginald Routley, 1917-82 Lyrics: 1 Entered the holy place above,
covered with meritorious scars,
the tokens of his dying love
our great high-priest in glory bears,
he pleads his passion on the tree,
he shows himself to God for me.
2 Before the throne my Saviour stands,
my friend and advocate appears;
my name is graven on his hands,
and him the Father always hears;
while low at Jesus' cross I bow,
he hears the blood of sprinkling now.
3 This instant now I may receive
the answer of his powerful prayer;
this instant now by him I live,
his prevalence with God declare;
and soon my spirit, in his hands,
shall stand where my forerunner stands.

In praise of God meet duty and delight
Author: Erik Reginald Routley, 1917-82 Hymnal: TIS1999 #471 (1999) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Person Name: Erik Reginald Routley, 1917-82 Lyrics: 1 In praise of God meet duty and delight,
creatures of earth and heavenly spirits blest:
in praise is earth transfigured by the sound
and sight of Heaven's everlasting feast.
2 In praise meet those with skill in art and crafts,
inspired, obedient, patient, practical;
in praise join instrument and voice and mind
to make one music for the Lord of all.
3 The desert is refreshed by songs of praise,
relaxed the frown of pride, the stress of grief;
in praise forgotten all our human spite;
in praise the burdened heart finds sure relief.
4 No skill of ours, no music made on earth,
no mortal song could scale the height of heaven;
yet stands the cross, through grace ineffable
an instrument of praise to sinners given.
5 So, confident and festive, let us sing
of wisdom, power and mercy there made known:
the song of Moses and the Lamb be ours,
through Christ raised up to life in God alone. Topics: Art and Learning; Confidence; Cross; Festal Joy; Glory of God; Grace; Grief; Music; Our Gifts to God; People of God; Resurrection; Worship Earthly and Heavenly Scripture: Colossians 3:16-17 Languages: English Tune Title: CLIFF TOWN
