in ancient times didst give the lawi

and order all things far and nigh;
to us the path of knowledge show,
and cause us in her ways to go. [Refrain]

thine own from Satan's tyranny;
from the depths of hell thy people save,
and give them victory o'er the grave. [Refrain]

and open wide our heavenly home;
make safe the way that leads on high
and close the path to misery. [Refrain]

our spirits by thine advent here;
disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
and death's dark shadow put to flight. [Refrain]

all peoples in one heart, one mind;
bid envy, strife and discord cease,
and be thyself our source of peace. [Refrain]

O Grant Us Light
Author: Lawrence Tuttiett Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 72 hymnals Scripture: James 3:17 First Line: O grant us light, that we may know Lyrics: 1 O grant us light, that we may know
The wisdom Thou alone canst give;
That truth may guide where'er we go,
And virtue bless where'er we live.
2 O grant us light, that we may learn
How dead is life from Thee apart,
How sure is joy for all who turn
To Thee an undivided heart.
3 O grant us light, in grief and pain,
To lift our burdened hearts above,
And count the very cross a gain,
And bless our Father's hidden love.
4 O grant us light, when, soon or late,
All earthly scenes shall pass away,
In Thee to find the open gate
To deathless home and endless day.
Amen. Topics: God Guide; God Light; Pilgrimage of life; Life in Christ Pilgrimage and Guidance of Life Used With Tune: ILLSLEY

O God, My Faithful God
Author: Johann Heermann; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Appears in 61 hymnals Scripture: James 3:13-18 Lyrics: 1 O God, my faithful God,
O fountain ever flowing,
without whom nothing is,
all perfect gifts bestowing,
grant me a faithful life,
and give me, Lord, within,
commitment free from strife,
a soul unhurt by sin.
2 God, grant me strength to do
with ready heart and willing,
whatever you command,
my calling here fulfilling;
and do it when I ought,
with zeal and joyfulness;
and bless the work I've wrought,
for you must give success.
3 Keep me from saying words
that later need recalling;
guard me, lest idle speech
may from my lips be falling;
but when, within my place,
I must and ought to speak,
then to my words give grace,
lest I offend the weak.
4 When dangers gather round,
still keep me calm and fearless;
help me to bear the cross
when life seems bleak and cheerless,
to overcome my foes
with words and actions kind;
O God, your will disclose,
your counsel let me find.
