If Thou But Trust in God to Guide Thee

Author: Georg Neumark; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 182 hymnals Lyrics: 1 If thou but trust in God to guide thee and hope in him through all thy ways, he'll give thee strength, whate'er betide thee, and bear thee through the evil days; who trusts in God's unchanging love builds on the rock that nought can move. 2 Only be still, and wait his leisure in cheerful hope, with heart content to take whate'er thy Father's pleasure and all-discerning love hath sent; nor doubt our inmost wants are known to him who chose us for his own. 3 Sing, pray, and keep his ways unswerving, so do thine own part faithfully, and trust his Word; though undeserving. Thou yet shalt find it true for thee. God never yet forsook at need the soul that trusted him indeed.

I Leave All Things to God's Direction

Author: Salomo Franck, 1659-1725; August Crull, 1845-1923 Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I leave all things to God's direction, For he loves me in wealth or woe; His will is good, and his affection, His tender love is true, I know. My strength, my fortress rock is he: What pleases God, that pleases me. 2 My God has all things in his keeping, He is my ever faithful friend; He gives me laughter after weeping, And all his ways in blessing end. His love endures eternally: What pleases God, that pleases me. 3 The will of God shall be my pleasure While here I live life's interim; My will is wrong beyond all measure, It does not will what pleases him. The Christian's motto then must be: What pleases God, that pleases me. 4 God knows what must be done to save me, His love for me will never cease; And all my sins my Lord forgave me With purest gold of loving grace. His will supreme must ever be: What pleases God, that pleases me. 5 My God desires each soul's salvation, My soul he too desires to save; Therefore with Christian resignation All earthly troubles I will brave. His will be done eternally: What pleases God, that pleases me. Topics: Cross and Comfort Used With Tune: WER NUR DEN LIEBEN GOTT

Who knew no sin and no deceiving

Author: Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D.; Rev. George Cronenwett Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Who knew no sin and no deceiving, Has borne my sin and my distress; And I by grace in Him believing, Now deck me with His righteousness. As He is sinner to my good, So I am holy through His blood. 2 Nay not in me, self-righteous were it, On God's grace rests my holiness; He looks on Christ's atoning merit, And counts this as my righteousness: This I believe, and hence my claim, That I am holy in His Name. 3 In Christ, by faith then, I am holy, In self though 'tis not yet the case; But I will likewise now so wholly Seek e'er in life to walk by grace, That soul and body may remain All blameless till Christ come again. 4 I will devote my every member To serve in righteousness God's will, Then when I falter, e'er remember That I may trust God's mercy still; And pray that God would guide through strife, That I may lead a holy life. 5 Thus will I walk, O God, before Thee, That my light too may shine alway And that I by my life adore Thee, Till I at length on that great day In life and self shall holy be, And wholly perfect, Lord, with Thee.

O, Boże, Ty nam wszystko dajesz!

Author: ks. Kaspar Neumann, d. 1715 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 O, Boże, Ty nam wszystko dajesz! Ten świat jest jako wielki dom, gdzie Ty, nasz Ojciec, nie przestajesz obdarzać dobrem dziatwę swą. Twych błogosławieństw zdroje, nas na każdy wzbogacają czas. 2 Kto zliczy wszystkich ludzi, Panie, dla których dziś nakrywasz stół? A wszystkim dosyć się dostanie, że nikt nie będzie głodu czuł. Ty starasz się, że ziemski krąg codzienny chleb ma z Twoich rąk. 3 Z nadzieją ziarnko człek wysiewa, a w lecie widzi pełny k-ɵs. Wiatr, co przez pole dmie, ulewa, krople wieczornych, rannych ros i słońce, co tak pięknie lśni, to wszystko, Bioże, służy Ci. 4 Nasiona mnoży Twa opieka, by każdy z czego wyżyć miał. Tak rośnie pokarm dla człowieka, aż z ziemi Bożej chleb się stał, aż w poloch urósł znów Twój dziw i rolnik śpieszy rad do żniw. 5 Cóż pierwej tu podziwiać, Boże, bo któż wypowie wszechmoc Twą? Tyle, co Ty, dać nikt nie może, litości Twe bez końca są. My grzeszni, a Tyś zamiast wzgard nam więcej dał niż człowiek wart. 6 Zapomnieć tego już nie chcemy, jak Ty nas opatrujesz sam, lecz pokarm każdy, który jemy, na nowo ma to głosić nam. Niech z serc i ust po wszystkie dni podzięka nasza Tobie brzmi. Topics: Rok kościelny Dziękczynne Świeto Żniw Used With Tune: WER NUR DEN LIEBEN GOTT LASST WALTEN

Though Famed in Israel's Royal History

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Though famed in Israel's royal hist'ry Lyrics: 1 Though famed in Israel's royal hist'ry, Bethlehem would that past excel When God revealed a greater myst'ry, The Word made flesh, Emmanuel: Through Mary born from David's line, A Savior human and divine. 2 Who would expect a humble manger To cradle such a holy birth! How could flesh clothe the stars' arranger Or sheathe the hands that formed the earth? God's ways confound the worldly-wise, Disarm the sure with bright surprise. 3 All we recall of gain or glory Can scarce predict what still may be; God is the Author of our story, Whose will is sov'reign, boundless, free: Yet living in this time and place We can be vessels of God's grace. 4 Kindle, O God, your gifts within us, Stir up our faith, renew our nerve. When tempting powers seek to win us, Help us remember whom we serve: Transform our lies and build in them A new and willing Bethlehem.

Abide With Us, the Day is Waning

Author: Caspar J. Boye; Oluf H. Smeby Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: "Abide with us, the day is waning" Lyrics: 1 "Abide with us, the day is waning," Thus prayed the two while on the way; We read that Thou, O Lord, remaining, Didst all their doubts and fears allay. Incline Thine ear, Thou King of Grace, When, praying thus, we seek Thy face. 2 At eventide, Thy Spirit sending, Help us, O Lord, our watch to keep, In prayer devout, before Thee bending, Ere our eyelids close in sleep, Confessing sin in deed and word With hope of mercy from the Lord. 3 Abide with us; with heav'nly gladness Illumine, Lord, our darkest day; And when we weep in pain and sadness, Be Thou our Solace, Strength, and Stay. Tell of Thy woe, Thy vict'ry won, When Thou didst pray: "Thy will be done." 4 Abide with us, O Savior tender, That bitter day when life shall end, When to the grave we must surrender, And fear and pain our hearts shall rend. The shield of faith do Thou bestow When trembling we must meet the foe. 5 When earthly help no more availeth, To sup with us Thou wilt be nigh; Thou givest strength that never faileth, In Thee we grave and death defy. While earth is fading from our sight, Our eyes behold the realms of light. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Easter Scripture: Luke 24:13-35 Used With Tune: WER NUR DEN LIEBEN GOTT

As Oft, with Worn and Weary Feet

Author: James Edmeston Appears in 59 hymnals Lyrics: 1. As oft, with worn and weary feet, We tread earth’s rugged valley o’er, The thought, how comforting and sweet: Christ trod this very path before! Our wants and weaknesses He knows, From life’s first dawning to its close. 2. Does sickness, feebleness or pain Or sorrow in our path appear? The recollection will remain, More deeply did He suffer here: His life, how truly sad and brief, Filled up with suffering and with grief. 3. If Satan tempt our hearts to stray And whisper evil things within, So did he, in the desert way, Assail our Lord with thoughts of sin, When worn and in a feeble hour The tempter came with all his power. 4. Just such as I, this earth He trod, With every human ill but sin; And though indeed the very God, As I am now so He has been. My God, my Savior, look on me, With pity, love and sympathy.
