Lead On, O King Eternal
Author: Ernest W. Shurtleff, 1862-1917 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 396 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 139:24 Lyrics: 1 Lead on, O King Eternal,
the day of march has come;
henceforth in fields of conquest
your tents shall be our home.
Through days of preparation
your grace has made us strong,
and now, O King Eternal,
we lift our battle song.
2 Lead on, O King Eternal,
till sin’s fierce war shall cease,
and holiness shall whisper
the sweet Amen of peace;
for not with swords loud clashing,
nor roll of stirring drums,
with deeds of love and mercy
the heavenly kingdom comes.
3 Lead on, O King Eternal,
we follow, not with fears;
for gladness breaks like morning
where'er your face appears;
your cross is lifted o'er us;
we journey in its light;
the crown awaits the conquest:
lead on, O God of might. Topics: Conflict & Victory Used With Tune: LANCASHIRE

The Duteous Day Now Closes
Author: Paul Gerhardt (1607-1676); Robert Seymour Bridges (1844-1930) Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Appears in 44 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 139 Lyrics: 1 The duteous day now closes,
each flower and tree reposes,
shade creeps o'er wild and wood:
let us, as night is falling,
on God our maker calling,
give thanks and bless the Giver good.
2 Now all the heavenly splendour
breaks forth in starlight tender
from myriad worlds unknown;
and we, this marvel seeing,
forget our selfish being
for joy of beauty not our own.
3 Though long our mortal blindness
has missed God's loving kindness
and plunged us into strife;
yet when life's day is over,
shall death's fair night discover
the fields of everlasting life. Topics: Evening; Creation; O Gracious Light Used With Tune: INNSBRUCK

Make me know that Thou canst save;
Keep me safe by Thy dear side;
Let me in Thy love abide.

Make me steadfast, wise, and strong;
And when all alone I stand,
Shield me with Thy mighty hand.

Serving gladly here below,
Then at last go home to Thee,
Evermore Thine own to be.
