Help us to help each other, Lord
Author: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Topics: Sharing and Caring Lyrics: 1 Help us to help each other, Lord,
each other's cross to bear;
let each his friendly aid afford,
and feel another's care.
2 Up into thee, our living head,
let us in all things grow,
and by thy sacrifice be led
the fruits of love to show.
3 Touched by the lodestone of thy love
let all our hearts agree;
and ever towards each other move,
and ever move towards thee.
4 This is the bond of perfectness,
thy spotless charity.
O let us still, we pray, possess
the mind that was in thee. Scripture: Galatians 6:2 Used With Tune: DUNFERMLINE

Come, Children, learn to fear the Lord
Appears in 52 hymnals Topics: Care of God over his Saints Lyrics: 1 Come, Children, learn to fear the Lord
And that your Days be long,
Let not a false or spiteful Word
Be found upon your Tongue.
2 Depart from Mischief, practise Love,
Pursue the Works of Peace;
So shall the Lord your Ways approve,
And set your Souls at Ease.
3 His Eyes awake to guard the Just,
His Ears attend their Cry;
When broken Spirits dwell in Dust,
The GOD of Grace is nigh.
4 What tho' the Sorrows here they taste
Are sharp and tedious too,
The Lord who saves them all at last,
Is their Supporter now.
5 Evil shall smite the Wicked dead;
But GOD secures his own,
Prevents the Mischief when they slide,
Or heals the broken Bone.
6 When Desolation, like a Flood,
O'er the proud Sinner rolls,
Saints find a Refuge in their God,
For he redeem'd their Souls. Scripture: Psalm 34:11-22
Come, Children, learn to fear the Lord
Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,870 hymnals Topics: Compassion, Caring Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling,
Joy of heav'n, to earth come down!
Fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, thou art all compassion,
pure, unbounded love thou art;
visit us with thy salvation,
enter ev'ry trembling heart.
2 Breathe, oh, breathe thy loving Spirit
into ev'ry troubled breast;
let us all in thee inherit;
let us find thy promised rest.
Take away the love of sinning;
Alpha and Omega be;
end of faith, as its beginning,
set our hearts at liberty.
3 Come, Almighty, to deliver;
let us all thy life receive;
suddenly return, and never,
nevermore thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
serve thee as thy hosts above,
pray, and praise thee without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.
4 Finish then thy new creation,
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee!
Changed from glory into glory,
till in heav'n we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love and praise! Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 39 hymnals Topics: Cares First Line: The man who once has found abode Lyrics: 1 The man who once has found abode,
Within the secret place of God
Shall with Almighty God abide,
And in His shadow safely hide.
2 I of the Lord my God will say,
He is my refuge and my stay;
To Him for safety I will flee,
In Him my constant trust shall be.
3 The Lord with His protecting care
Shall keep thee from the hidden snare;
When fearful plagues around prevail
Thy life the scourge shall not assail.
4 Thou shalt beneath His wings abide,
And safe within His care confide;
His faithfulness shall ever be
A sure protection unto thee.
5 No nightly terrors shall alarm,
No deadly shaft by day shall harm;
Nor pestilence that walks by night,
Nor plagues that waste in noonday light.
6 At thy right hand, though thousands die,
No harm shall unto thee come nigh;
But thou secure, unharmed, shalt see
What wicked men's reward shall be.

Author: Henry W. Baker Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 679 hymnals Topics: God the Father Care and Guidance Lyrics: 1 The King of love my Shepherd is,
Whose goodness faileth never;
I nothing lack if I am His
And He is mine for ever.

My ransomed soul He leadeth,
And, where the verdant pastures grow,
With food celestial feedeth.
3 Perverse and foolish oft I strayed,
But yet in love He sought me.
And on His shoulder gently laid,
And home rejoicing brought me.
4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill
With Thee, dear Lord, beside me;
Thy rod and staff my comfort still,
Thy cross before to guide me.
5 And so through all the length of days
Thy goodness faileth never:
Good Shepherd, may I sing Thy praise
Within Thy house for ever.

Sing praises to His name, He forgets not His own.

Ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine;
So from the beginning the fight we were winning.
Thou Lord, wast at our side: the glory be Thine!
3 We all do extol Thee, Thou leader in battle,
And pray that Thou still our defender wilt be.
Let Thy congregation escape tribulation:
Thy name be ever praised: O Lord, make us free!
Amen.
