And all the twinkling, starry host;
Jesus shines brighter,
Jesus shines purer
Than all the angels heav'n can boast.

God Is Our Refuge and Our Strength
Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Church Beauty and Glory of Lyrics: 1 God is our refuge and our strength,
our ever-present aid,
and therefore though the earth remove,
we will not be afraid;
though hills amidst the seas be cast,
though foaming waters roar,
yea, though the mighty billows shake
the mountains on the shore.
2 A river flows whose streams make glad
the city of our God,
the holy place wherein the Lord
Most High has his abode.
Since God is in the midst of her,
unmoved her walls shall stand,
for God will be her early help,
when trouble is at hand.
3 The nations raged, the kingdoms moved,
but when his voice was heard,
the troubled earth was stilled to peace
before his mighty word.
The Lord of Hosts is on our side,
our safety to secure;
the God of Jacob is for us
a refuge strong and sure.
4 O come, behold what wondrous works
Jehovah's hand has wrought;
come, see what desolation great
he on the earth has brought.
To utmost ends of all the earth
he causes war to cease;
the weapons of the strong destroyed,
he makes abiding peace.
5 "Be still and know that I am God,
o'er all exalted high;
the subject nations of the earth
my name shall magnify."
The Lord of Hosts is on our side,
our safety to secure,
the God of Jacob is for us
a refuge strong and sure.

Thy heart could only love.

Like Thee, O Lord, to grieve
Far more for others' sins than all
The wrongs that we receive.

In us, Thy brethren, see
The gentleness and grace that spring
From union, Lord, with Thee.

bow down before him, His glory proclaim;
gold of obedience and incense of lowliness
bring, and adore him; the Lord is his Name!
2 Low at his feet lay thy burden of carefulness;
high on his heart he will bear it for thee,
comfort thy sorrows, and answer thy prayerfulness,
guiding thy steps as may best for thee be.
3 Fear not to enter his courts, in the slenderness
of the poor wealth thou canst reckon as thine;
truth in its beauty and love in its tenderness,
these are the offerings to lay on His shrine.
4 These, though we bring them in trembling and fearfulness,
he will accept for the Name that is dear,
mornings of joy give for evenings of tearfulness,
trust for our trembling, and hope for our fear.
5 Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness;
bow down before him, His glory proclaim;
gold of obedience and incense of lowliness
bring, and adore him; the Lord is his Name! Scripture: 1 Chronicles 16:29 Used With Tune: MOREDUN
