How Firm a Foundation

How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord, 

Is laid for your faith in His excellent Word! 

What more can He say than to you He hath said, 

To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?

"Fear not, I am with thee; O be not dismayed, 

For I am thy God, and will still give thee aid; 

I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand, 

Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand. 

"When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie, 

My grace, all sufficient, shall be thy supply: 

The flame shall not hurt thee; I only design 

Thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine. 

"The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose 

I will not, I will not desert to its foes; 

That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake, 

I'll never, no, never, no, never forsake!"

Be Still My Soul

Be still, my soul! the Lord is on thy side; 

Be patiently the cross of grief or pain; 

Leave to thy God to order and provide; 

In every change He faithful will remain. 

Be still, my soul! thy best, thy heavenly Friend 

Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end. 

Be still, my soul! thy God doth undertake 

To guide the future as He has the past. 

Thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake; 

All now mysterious shall be bright at last. 

Be still, my soul! the waves and winds still know 

His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below. 

O God Our Help in Ages Past

O God, our help in ages past, 

Our hope for years to come, 

Our shelter from the stormy blast, 

And our eternal home!

Under the shadow of Thy throne 

Still may we dwell secure; 

Sufficient is Thine arm alone, 

And our defense is sure. 

Before the hills in order stood, 

Or earth received her frame, 

From everlasting Thou are God, 

To endless years the same. 

A thousand ages in Thy sight 

Are like an evening gone; 

Short as the watch that ends the night, 

Before the rising sun. 

O God, our help in ages past, 

Our hope for years to come, 

Be Thou our guide while life shall last, 

And our eternal home! 

Amen.

Glorious Things of Thee are Spoken

Glorious things of thee are spoken, 

Zion, city of our God; 

He whose word cannot be broken

Formed thee for His own abode. 

On the Rock of Ages founded, 

What can shake thy sure repose? 

With salvation's walls surrounded, 

Thou mayest smile at all thy foes. 

See the streams of living waters, 

Wpringing from eeternal Love, 

Well supply thy sons and daughters, 

And all fear of want remove. 

Who can faint while such a river

Ever flows their thirst to assuage? 

Grace which, like the Lord, the Giver, 

Never fails from age to age!

Round each habitation hovering, 

See the cloud and fire appear

For a glory and a covering, 

Showing that the Lord is near!

Thus deriving from their banner

Light by night and shade by day, 

Safe they feed upon the manna

Which He gives them when they pray. 

Amen.

O Day of Rest and Gladness

O day of rest and gladness, 

O day of joy and light, 

O balm of care and sadness, 

Most beautiful, most bright: 

On thee the high and lowly, 

Thorough ages joined in tune, 

Sing "Holy, holy, holy," 

To the great God Triune. 

On thee, at the creation, 

The light first had its birth; 

On thee, for our salvation, 

Christ rose from depths of earth; 

On thee our Lord victorious 

The Spirit sent from heaven; 

And thus on thee most glorious 

A triple light was given. 

Today on weary nations 

The heavenly manna falls; 

To holy convocations 

The silver trumpet calls. 

Where gospel light is glowing 

With pure and radiant beams, 

And living water flowing 

With soul-refreshing streams. 

New graces ever gaining 

From this our day of rest, 

We reach the rest remaining 

To spirits of the blest; 

To Holy Ghost be praises, 

To Father and to Son; 

The Church her voice upraises 

To Thee, blest Three in One. 

Amen. 

All People That on Earth Do Dwell

All people that on earth do dwell, 

Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice; 

Him serve with mirth, His praise forth tell, 

Come ye before Him and rejoice. 

For why? the Lord our God is good, 

His mercy is forever sure; 

His truth at all times firmly stood, 

And shall from age to age endure. 

God Be With You 'Til We Meet Again

God be with you 'til we meet again, 

By His counsels guide, uphold you, 

With His sheep securely fold you: 

God be with you 'til we meet again, 

God be with you 'til we meet again, 

'Neath His wings protecting hide you, 

Daily manna still provide you: 

God be with you 'til we meet again, 

God be with you 'til we meet again, 

If life's trials should confound you, 

God will put His arms around you: 

God be with you 'til we meet again, 

God be with you 'til we meet again, 

Keep love's banner floating o'er you, 

Smite death's threat'ning wave before you: 

God be with you 'til we meet again,

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty! 

Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee; 

Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty! 

God in three persons, blessed Trinity! 

Holy, holy, holy! all the saints adore Thee, 

Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea; 

Cherubim and Seraphim falling down before Thee, 

Who wert, and art, and evermore shalt be. 

Holy, holy, holy! though the darkness hide Thee, 

Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see; 

Only Thou art holy--there is none beside Thee 

Perfect in power, in love and purity. 

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty! 

All Thy works shall praise Thy name in earth and sky and sea; 

Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty! 

God in three persons, blessed Trinity! 

Amen. 

Be Thou My Vision

Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart; 

Nought be all else to me, save that Thou art—

Thou my best thought, by day or by night, 

Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light. 

Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word; 

I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord; 

Thou my great Father, I Thy true son; 

Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one. 

God of Grace, God of Glory

God of grace and God of glory, 

On Thy people pour Thy power; 

Crown Thine ancient church's story, 

Bring her bud to glorious flower. 

Grant us wisdom, 

Grant us courage, 

For the facing of this hour, 

For the facing of this hour. 

Lo! the hosts of evil round us

Scorn Thy Christ, assail His ways! 

From the fears that long have bound us, 

Free our hearts to faith and praise. 

Grant us wisdom, 

Grand us courage, 

For the living of these days, 

For the living of these days. 

Cure Thy children's warring madness; 

Bend our pride to Thy control; 

Shame our wanton, selfish gladness, 

Rich in things and poor in soul. 

Grand us wisdom, 

Grand us courage, 

Lest we miss Thy kingdom's goal, 

Lest we miss Thy kingdom's goal. 

Set our feet on lofty places, 

Gird our lives that they may be

Armored with all Christ-like graces

In the fight to set men free. 

Grant us wisdom, 

Grand us courage, 

That we fail not man nor Thee, 

That we fail not man nor Thee.

O Love That Will Not Let Me Go

O Love that will not let me go, 

I rest my weary soul in Thee; 

I give Thee back the life I owe, 

That in Thine ocean depths its flow

May richer, fuller be. 

O Light that followest all my way, 

I yield my flickering torch to Thee; 

My heart restores its borrowed ray, 

That in Thy sunshine's blaze its day 

May brighter, fairer be. 

O Joy that seekest me through pain, 

I cannot close my heart to Thee; 

I trace the rainbow through the rain, 

And feel the promise is not vain 

That morn shall tearless be. 

O Cross that liftest up my head, 

I dare not ask to fly from Thee; 

I lay in dust life's glory dead, 

And from the ground there blossoms red, 

Life that shall endless be. 

Amen. 

Children of the Heavenly Father

Children of the heavenly Father 

Safely in His bosom gather; 

Nestling bird nor star in heaven 

Such a refuge e'er was given. 

God His own doth tend and nourish, 

In His holy courts they flourish; 

From all evil things He spares them, 

In His mighty arms He bears them. 

Neither life nor death shall ever 

From the Lord His children sever; 

Unto them His grace He showeth, 

And their sorrows all He knoweth. 

Blessed Assurance, Jesus Is Mine

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine! 

O what a foretaste of glory divine! 

Heir of salvation, purchase of God, 

Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood. 

[CHORUS]:

This is my story, this is my song, 

Praising my Savior all the day long; 

This is my story, this is my song, 

Praising my Savior all the day long. 

Perfect submission, perfect delight, 

Vision of rapture now burst on my sight; 

Angels descending bring from above

Echoes of mercy, whispers of love. 

[CHORUS]

Perfect submission, all is at rest, 

I in my Savior am happy and blest; 

Watching and waiting, looking above, 

Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

All hail the power of Jesus' name! 

Let angels prostrate fall, 

Bring forth the royal diadem, 

And crown Him Lord of all; 

Bring forth the royal diadem, 

And crown Him Lord of all! 

Ye chosen seed of Israel's race, 

Ye ransomed from the fall, 

Hail Him who saves you bu His grace, 

And crown Him Lord of all; 

Hail Him who saves you bu His grace, 

And crown Him Lord of all! 

Let every kindred, every tribe, 

On this terrestrial ball, 

To Him all majesty ascribe, 

And crown Him Lord of all; 

To Him all majesty ascribe, 

And crown Him Lord of all! 

O that with yonder sacred throng 

We at His feet may fall! 

We'll join the everlasting song, 

And crown Him Lord of all; 

We'll join the everlasting song, 

And crown Him Lord of all! 

Breathe on Me Breath of God

Breathe on me, Breath of God, 

Fill me with life anew, 

That I may love what Thou dost love, 

And do what Thou wouldst do. 

Breathe on me, Breath of God, 

Until my heart is pure, 

Until with Thee I will one will

To do and to endure. 

Trust and Obey

When we walk with the Lord 

In the light of His Word, 

What a glory He sheds on our way! 

While we do His good will, 

He abides with us still, 

And with all who will trust and obey. 

CHORUS:

Trust and obey, for there's no other way

To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey

Not a shadow can rise, 

Not a cloud in the skies, 

But His smile quickly drives it away; 

Not a doubt or a fear, 

Not a sigh or a tear, 

Can remain when we trust and obey. 

[CHORUS]

Not a burden we bear, 

Not a sorrow we share, 

But our toil He doth richly repay; 

Not a grief or a loss, 

Not a frown or a cross, 

But is blest if we trust and obey. 

[CHORUS]

Then in fellowship sweet 

We will sit at His feet, 

Or we'll walk by His side in the way; 

What He says we will do, 

Where He sends we will go, 

Never fear, only trust and obey.

In the Garden

I come to the garden alone, 

While the dew is still on the roses; 

And the voice I hear, falling on my ear, 

The Son of God discloses. 

Chorus: 

And He walks with me, and He talks with me, 

And He tells me I am His own; 

And the joy we share as we tarry there, 

None other has ever known. 

He speaks, and the sound of His voice

Is so sweet the birds hush their singing, 

And the melody that He gave to me

Within my heart is ringing. 

[Chorus]

I'd stay in the garden with Him

Though the night around me be falling, 

But He bids me go; through the voice of woe, 

His voice to me is calling. 

[Chorus]

Precious Lord, Take My Hand

Precious Lord, take my hand, 

Lead me on, help me stand; 

I am tired, I am weak, I am worn; 

Thru the storm, thru the night, 

Lead me on to the light, 

Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home. 

When my way grows drear, 

Precious Lord, linger near; 

When my life is almost gone, 

Hear my cry, hear my call, 

Hold my hand lest I fall; 

Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home. 

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

A mighty fortress is our God, 

A bulwark never failing; 

Our helper He amid the flood 

Of mortal ills prevailing. 

For still our ancient foe 

Doth seek to work us woe - 

His craft and power are great, 

And, armed with cruel hate, 

On earth is not His equal.

Did we in our own strength confide, 

Our striving would be losing, 

Were not the right man on our side, 

The man of God's own choosing. 

Dost ask who that may be? 

Christ Jesus, it is He - 

Lord Sabaoth His name, 

From age to age the same, 

And He must win the battle. 

And though this world with devils filled, 

Should threaten to undo us, 

We will not fear, for God hath willed 

His truth to triumph through us. 

The prince of darkness grim, 

We tremble not for him - 

His rage we can endure, 

For lo, his doom is sure: 

One little word shall fell him. 

That word above all earthly powers, 

No thanks to them, abideth; 

The Spirit and the gifts are ours 

Through Him who with us sideth. 

Let goods and kindred go, 

This mortal life also - 

The body they may kill; 

God's truth abideth still: 

His kingdom is forever. 

Amen.

O worship the King all glorious above, 

And gratefully sing His wonderful love; 

Our shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days, 

Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise. 

O tell of His might and sing of His grace, 

Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space; 

His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form, 

And dark is His path on the wings of the storm. 

Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite? 

It breathes in the air, it shines in the light, 

It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain, 

And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain. 

Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, 

In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail; 

Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end, 

Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer and Friend.

Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee, 

Opening to the sun above. 

Melt the clouds of sin and sadness, 

Drive the dark of doubt away; 

Giver of immortal gladness, 

Fill us with the light of day. 

All Thy works with joy surround Thee, 

Earth and heaven reflect Thy rays, 

Stars and angels sing around Thee, 

Center of unbroken praise. 

Field and forest, vale and mountain, 

Flowery meadow, flashing sea, 

Chanting bird and flowing fountain, 

Call us to rejoice in Thee. 

Thou art giving and forgiving, 

Ever blessing, ever blest, 

Wellspring of the joy of living, 

Ocean depth of happy rest! 

Thou our Father, Christ our Brother 

All who live in love are Thine; 

Teach us how to love each other, 

Lift us to the joy divine. 

Mortals, join the happy chorus 

With the morning stars began; 

Father love is reigning o'er us, 

Brother love binds man to man. 

Ever singing, march we onward, 

Victors in the midst of strife, 

Joyful music leads us sun-ward 

In the triumphs song of life.

This is My Father's World

This is my Father's world, 

And to my listening ears 

All nature sings, and 'round me ring 

The music of the spheres. 

This is my Father's world: 

I rest me in the thought 

Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas- 

His hand the wonders wrought. 

This is my Father's world, 

The birds their carols raise, 

The morning light, the lily white, 

Declare their Maker's praise. 

This is my Father's world: 

He shines in all that's fair; 

In the rustling grass I hear Him pass, 

He speaks to me everywhere

This is my Father's world, 

O let me ne'er forget 

That though the wrong seems oft so strong, 

God is the ruler yet. 

This is my Father's world: 

The battle is not done; 

Jesus who died shall be satisfied, 

And earth and heaven be one. 

Just As I Am

Just as I am, without one plea, 

But that Thy blood was shed for me, 

And that Thou biddest me come to Thee--

O Lamb of God, 

I come, I come!

Just as I am, Thou wilt receive, 

Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve; 

Because Thy promise I believe, 

O Lamb of God, 

I come, I come!

Just as I am, Thy love unknown

Hath broken every barrier down; 

Now, to be Thine, yes, Thine alone, 

O Lamb of God, 

I come, I come!

Amen

Amazing Grace

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound—

That saved a wretch like me! 

I once was lost but now am found, 

Was blind but now I see. 

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, 

And grace my fears relieved; 

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed! 

The Lord has promised good to me, 

His word my hope secures; 

He will my shield and portion be

As long as life endures. 

Through many dangers, toils, and snared, 

I have already come; 

'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, 

And grace will lead me home. 

When we've been there ten thousand years, 

Bright shining as the sun, 

We've no less days to sing God's praise

Than when we'd first begun.
