Forth in thy name, O Lord, I go
Author: Charles Wesley 1707-1788 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 346 hymnals Scripture: Mark 4:18-19 Lyrics: 1 Forth in thy name, O Lord, I go,
my daily labour to pursue;
thee, only thee, resolved to know,
in all I think or speak or do.
2 The task thy wisdom hath assigned
O let me cheerfully fulfil;
in all my works thy presence find,
and prove thy good and perfect will.
3 Preserve me from my calling's snare,
and hide my simple heart above,
above the thorns of choking care,
the gilded baits of worldly love.
4 Thee may I set at my right hand,
whose eyes my inmost substance see,
and labour on at thy command,
and offer all my works to thee.
5 Give me to bear your easy yoke,
and every moment watch and pray,
and still to things eternal look,
and hasten to thy glorious day;
6 For thee delightfully employ
whate’er thy bounteous grace hath given,
and run my course with even joy,
and closely walk with thee to heaven. Topics: Epiphany III Year C; Third Sunday Before Lent Year B Used With Tune: SONG 34 (ANGELS' SONG)

for the truths that still confound us,
most of all that love has found us,
thanks be to God.

you were fasting in the wild,
forty days and forty nights
tempted, and yet undefiled:
2 let us your endurance share
and from earthly greed abstain,
with you watching unto prayer,
with you strong to suffer pain.
3 And if Satan on us press
flesh or spirit to assail,
Victor in the wilderness,
grant we may not faint or fail.
4 Keep, O keep us, Saviour dear,
ever constant by your side,
that with you we may appear
at the eternal Eastertide. Topics: Endurance; Jesus Christ Earthly life; Lent; Satan; Temptation Used With Tune: HEINLEIN

Fierce Raged the Tempest
Author: Godfrey Thring Meter: 8.8.8.3 Appears in 132 hymnals Scripture: Mark 4:35-41 First Line: Fierce raged the tempest, o’er the deep Lyrics: 1 Fierce raged the tempest, o’er the deep,
anxious disciples watch did keep;
but you were wrapped in guileless sleep,
calm and still.
2 “Save, us, we perish!” was their cry.
“Save us or we will surely die!”
Your word above the storm rose high:
“Peace! be still.”
3 The wild winds hushed; the angry deep
fell, like a little child, to sleep;
the sullen billows ceased to leap,
at your will.
4 So, when our life is clouded o’er,
and storm-winds drift us from the shore,
say, lest we sink to rise no more,
“Peace! be still.” Topics: Jesus Christ Miracles of; Jesus Christ Miracles of; Joy; Peace Inner; Suffering Used With Tune: ST. AËLRED

From Every Stormy Wind That Blows
Author: Hugh Stowell Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,279 hymnals Scripture: Mark 4:37-41 First Line: From ev'ry stormy wind that blows Lyrics: 1 From ev'ry stormy wind that blows,
From ev'ry swelling tide of woes,
There is a calm, a sure retreat,
'Tis found beneath the mercy-seat.
2 There is a place where Jesus sheds
The oil of gladness on our heads;
A place than all besides more sweet;
It is the blood-bought mercy-seat.
3 There is a scene where spirits blend,
Where friend holds fellowship with friend;
Though sundered far, by faith they meet
Around one common mercy-seat.
4 Ah! whither could we flee for aid,
When tempted, desolate, dismayed;
Or how the hosts of hell defeat,
Had suffering saints no mercy-seat?
5 There, there on eagle wing we soar,
And sin and sense seem all no more,
And heaven comes down our souls to greet,
While glory crowns the mercy-seat.
Amen. Topics: Way of Salvation Faith and Justification; Mercy-seat Used With Tune: EMILIA
