Now thank we all our God

with heart and hands and voices;
such wonders He has done!
In Him the world rejoices,
who, from our mothers' arms
has blessed us on our way
with countless gifts of love
and still is ours today.
2 So may this generous God
through all our life be near us;
to fill our hearts with joy
and with His peace to cheer us,
to keep us in His grace
and guide us when perplexed;
to free us from all ills
in this world and the next.
3 All praise and thanks to God
who reigns in highest heaven,
to Father and to Son
and Spirit now be given–
the one eternal God,
whom earth and heaven adore–
for so it was, is now
and shall be evermore. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: NUN DANKET

Heavenly Father, You have brought us
Author: Hester Periam Hawkins, 1848-1928 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #133 (2004) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: God Through the Years His Faithfulness; God Through the Years New Year - Old Year Lyrics: 1 Heavenly Father, You have brought us
safely to the present day,
gently leading on our footsteps,
watching o’er us all the way.
Friend and guide through life’s long journey,
grateful hearts to You we bring;
but for love so true and changeless
how shall we fit praises sing?
2 Mercies new and never-failing
brightly shine through all the past,
watchful care and loving-kindness
always near from first to last,
tender love, divine protection
ever with us day and night;
blessings more than we can number
strew the path with golden light.
3 Shadows deep have crossed our pathway,
we have trembled in the storm;
clouds have gathered round so darkly
that we could not see Your form;
yet Your love has never left us
in our griefs to be alone,
and the help each gave the other
was the strength that is Your own.
4 Many that we loved have left us,
reaching first their journey’s end;
now they wait to give us welcome,
brother, sister, child, and friend.
When at last our journey’s over,
and we pass away from sight,
Father, take us through the darkness
into everlasting light. Languages: English Tune Title: RUSTINGTON

by His unerring counsel led.

the future, all to us unknown,
we to Your guardian care commit,
and peaceful leave before Your feet.

adored through all our changing days.

shall keep our souls and guard our dust. Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM

warfare shall end at length,
all foes be overthrown.

the crown of life awaits your brow. Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTCHURCH

dies at the dawning day.

in trouble and in joy,
the praises of my God shall still
my heart and tongue employ.

from my example comfort take,
and charm their griefs to rest.

the dwellings of the just;
protection He affords to all
who make His Name their trust.
4 O magnify the Lord with me,
with me exalt His name;
when in distress to Him I called
He to my rescue came.

experience will decide
how blest are they, and only they,
who in His truth confide.

have nothing else to fear;

your wants shall be His care. Scripture: Psalm 34 Languages: English Tune Title: WILTSHIRE

Your flock, from age to age;
Your faithfulness is written
on history's open page.
They knew Your perfect goodness,
whose deeds we now record;
and both to this bear witness:
one Church, one Faith, one Lord.
2 Your heralds brought the gospel
to greatest as to least;
they summoned us to hasten
and share the great King's feast.
And this was all their teaching
in every deed and word;
to all alike proclaiming:
one Church, one Faith, one Lord.
3 Through many days of darkness,
through many scenes of strife,
the faithful few fought bravely
to guard the nation's life.
Their gospel of redemption —
sin pardoned, hope restored —
was all in this enfolded:
one Church, one Faith, one Lord.
4 And we, shall we be faithless?
Shall hearts fail, hands hang down?
Shall we evade the conflict
and throw away the crown?
Not so! In God's deep counsels
some better thing is stored;
we will maintain, unflinching,
one Church, one Faith, one Lord.
5 Your mercy will not fail us
nor leave Your work undone;
with Your right hand to help us,
the victory shall be won.
And then by earth and heaven
Your name shall be adored;
and this shall be our anthem:
one Church, one Faith, one Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: THORNBURY

entirely to Your care.
2 My times are in Your hand
whatever they may be,
pleasing or painful, dark or bright,
as You know best for me.
3 My times are in Your hand;
why should I doubt or fear?
My Father's hand will never cause
His child a needless tear.
4 My times are in Your hand:
Jesus, the Crucified;
those hands my cruel sins had pierced
are now my guard and guide.
5 My times are in Your hand;
such faith You give to me
that after death, at Your right hand
I shall for ever be. Languages: English Tune Title: DENNIS (RIPON)

He who spread the heavens above,
He who breathes through all creation,

2 God is love, and is enfolding
all the world in one embrace;
His unfailing grasp is holding
every child of every race;
and when human hearts are breaking
under sorrow's iron rod,
that same sorrow, that same aching
wrings with pain the heart of God.
3 God is love: and though with blindness
sin afflicts and clouds the will,
God's eternal loving-kindness
holds us fast and guides us still.
Sin and death and hell shall never
o'er us final triumph gain;
God is love, so Love for ever
o'er the universe must reign. Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH
