Trust and Obey
Author: John H. Sammis Meter: 6.6.9 D with refrain Appears in 437 hymnals Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:22 First Line: When we walk with the Lord Refrain First Line: Trust and obey, for there's no other way Lyrics: 1 When we walk with the Lord
in the light of his Word,
what a glory he sheds on our way!
While we do his good will,
he abides with us still,
and with all who will trust and obey.
Refrain:
Trust and obey, for there's no other way
to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
2 Not a burden we bear,
not a sorrow we share,
but our toil he will richly repay;
not a grief nor a loss,
not a frown nor a cross,
but is blest if we trust and obey. (Refrain)
3 But we never can prove
the delights of his love
until all on the altar we lay;
for the favor he shows
and the joy he bestows
are for them who will trust and obey. (Refrain)
4 Then in fellowship sweet
we will sit at his feet,
or we'll walk by his side in the way;
what he says we will do,
where he sends we will go–
never fear, only trust and obey. (Refrain) Topics: Burdens; Jesus Christ Presence of; Obedience; Sorrow; Submission; Trust; Walking with God Used With Tune: TRUST AND OBEY

Brightest and Best of the Stars
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 910 hymnals Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:22 First Line: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and come to our aid;
star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
2 What shall we give him, in costly devotion?
Shall we bring incense and offerings divine,
gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
myrrh from the forest or gold from the mine?
3 Vainly we offer each lavish oblation,
vainly with gifts would his favor secure;
richer by far is the heart’s adoration,
dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
4 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and come to our aid;
star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid! Topics: Epiphany Used With Tune: MORNING STAR

When, bending o'er the brink of life
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 95 hymnals Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:32 Lyrics: 1 When, bending o'er the brink of life,
My trembling soul shall stand,
Waiting to pass death's awful flood,
Great God, at thy command!
2 When weeping friends surround my bed,
And close my sightless eyes;
When shatter'd by the weight of years
This broken body lies:
3 When ev'ry long-lov'd scene of life
Stands ready to depart;
When the last sigh that shakes the frame
Shall rend this bursting heart:
4 O, thou great Source of joy supreme,
Whose arm alone can save,
Dispel the darkness that surrounds
The entrance to the grave!
5 Lay thy supporting gentle hand
Beneath my sinking head;
And, with a ray of love divine,
Illume my dying bed!
6 Leaning on thy dear faithful breast,
May I resign my breath!
And, in thy fond embraces, lose
"The bitterness of death!"

The wise may bring their learning
Author: Anon. Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 117 hymnals Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:22 Lyrics: 1 The wise may bring their learning,
The rich may bring their wealth,
And some may bring their greatness,
And some bring strength and health;
We, too, would bring our treasures
To offer to the King;
We have no wealth or learning:
What shall we children bring?
2 We'll bring him hearts to love him;
We'll bring him thankful praise,
And young souls meekly striving
To walk in holy ways:
And these shall be the treasures
We offer to the King,
And these are gifts that even
The poorest child may bring.
3 We'll bring the little duties
We have to do each day;
We'll try our best to please him,
At home, at school, at play:
And better are these treasures
To offer to the King
Than richest gifts without them;
Yet these a child may bring.
Amen. Topics: Common Duties and Things; Love For Christ or God; Obedience; Offerings; Riches Used With Tune: ELLON

O God of earth and altar
Author: G. K. Chesterton, 1874-1936 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:10-11 Lyrics: 1 O God of earth and altar,
bow down and hear our cry,
our earthly rulers falter,
our people drift and die;
the walls of gold entomb us,
the swords of scorn divide,
take not thy thunder from us,
but take away our pride.
2 From all that terror teaches,
from lies of tongue and pen,
from all the easy speeches
that comfort cruel men,
from sale and profanation
of honour and the sword,
from sleep and from damnation,
deliver us, good Lord!
3 Tie in a living tether
the prince and priest and thrall,
bind all our lives together,
smite us and save us all;
in ire and exultation
aflame with faith, and free,
lift up a living nation,
a single sword to thee. Topics: National; Remembrance Sunday Used With Tune: KING'S LYNN

waiting for thy gracious word,
longing for thy voice that cheereth;
Master, let it now be heard.
I am listening, Lord, for thee;
What hast thou to say to me?
2 Speak to me by name, O Master,
let me know it is to me;
speak, that I may follow faster,
with a step more firm and free,
where the shepherd leads the flock
in the shadow of the rock.
3 Master, speak: and make me ready,
when thy voice is truly heard,
with obedience glad and steady
still to follow every word.
I am listening, Lord, for thee:
Master, speak, O, speak to me!
