Preservation by Day and Night
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #232b (1740) Topics: Defense in God First Line: To Heav'n I lift my waiting eyes Lyrics: 1 To Heav'n I lift my waiting Eyes;
There all my Hopes are laid:
The Lord, that built the Earth and Skies
Is my perpetual Aid.
2 Their Feet shall never slide to fall
Whom he designs to keep;
His Ear attends the softest Call,
His Eyes can never sleep.
3 He will sustain our weakest Pow'rs
With his Almighty Arm,
And watch our most unguarded Hours
Against surprising Harm.
4 Isr'el, rejoice, and rest secure,
Thy Keeper is the Lord;
His wakeful Eyes employ his Pow'r
For thine eternal guard.
5 Nor scorching Sun, nor sickly Moon,
Shall have his Leave to smite;
He shields thy Head from burning Noon,
From blasting Damps at Night.
6 He guards thy Soul, he keeps thy Breath,
Where thickest Dangers come:
Go, and return, secure from Death,
Till GOD commands thee Home. Scripture: Psalm 121 Languages: English
Preservation by Day and Night
God our Preserver
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #233 (1740) Topics: Defense in God First Line: Upward I lift mine Eyes Lyrics: 1 Upward I lift mine Eyes,
From GOD is all my Aid;
The GOD that built the Skies,
And Earth and Nature made;
GOD is the Tow'r
To which I fly;
His Grace is nigh
In ev'ry Hour.
2 My Feet shall never slide
And fall in fatal Snares,
Since GOD, my Guard and Guide,
Defends me from my Fears.
Those wakeful Eyes
That never sleep
Shall Isra'l keep,
When Dangers rise.
3 No burning Heats by Day
Nor Blasts of Evening Air,
Shall take my Health away,
If GOD be with me there:
Thou art my Sun,
And thou my Shade,
To guard my Head
By Night or Noon.
4 Hast thou not giv'n thy Word
To save my Soul from Death?
And I can trust my Lord
To keep my mortal Breath;
I'll go and come,
Nor fear to die,
Till from on high
Thou call me Home. Scripture: Psalm 121 Languages: English
God our Preserver
Christ, Thy All-Atoning Death
Author: Nicholas L. von Zinzendorf, 1700-1760; Philip Henry Molther, 1714-1780 Hymnal: Hymnal and Liturgies of the Moravian Church #246 (1969) Topics: The Church's Life and Work Protection and Defense First Line: Christ, Thine all-atoning death Lyrics: 1 Christ, Thine all-atoning death
Is our life while here below;
Strengthen Thou our feeble faith,
Constantly Thine aid bestow.
In thy mercy we confide;
Safely to the end us guide;
Zion, if thy Head depart,
Void of life and strength thou art.
2 Gracious Lord, may we believe,
Venture all on Thy free grace,
Boldly things not seen achieve,
Trusting in Thy promises.
Faith Thy people’s stronghold is;
Their employment daily this,
To proceed on paths unknown,
Leaning on Thine arm alone.
3 Lord, Thy body ne’er forsake,
Ne’er Thy congregation leave;
We to Thee our refuge take,
Of Thy fullness we receive;
Every other help be gone,
Thou art our Support alone;
For on Thy supreme commands
All the universe depends. Languages: English Tune Title: GOUDIMEL

Praise God! Praise God with Singing
Author: John Daniel Libbey, 1830-1892; Jan Roh (John Horn), d. 1547 Hymnal: Hymnal and Liturgies of the Moravian Church #247 (1969) Topics: The Church's Life and Work Protection and Defense First Line: Praise God! Praise God with singing! Lyrics: 1 Praise God! Praise God with singing!
Rejoice, thou Christian flock!
Fear not though foes are bringing
Their hosts against thy rock;
For though they here assail thee
And seek thy very life,
Let not thy courage fail thee;
Thy God shall turn the strife.
2 O be not thou dismayed,
Believing little band.
God, in His might arrayed,
To help thee is at hand.
Upon His palm engraven
Thy name is ever found,
He knows, Who dwells in heaven,
The ills that thee surround.
3 His purpose stands unshaken—
What He hath said He’ll do;
And, when by all forsaken,
His Church He will renew.
With pity He beholds her
E’en in her time of woe,
Still by His Word upholds her
And makes her thrive and grow.
4 To Him belong our praises,
Who still abides our Lord,
Bestowing gifts and graces
According to His Word.
Nor will He e’er forsake us,
But will our Guardian be
And ever stable make us
In love and unity. Languages: English Tune Title: LOB GOTT

Zion stands with hills surrounded
Author: Kelly Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #545 (1873) Topics: God the Defense of Zion Lyrics: 1 Zion stands with hills surrounded--
Zion, kept by power divine;
All her foes shall be confounded,
Though the world in arms combine.
Happy Zion,
What a favored lot is thine!
2 Every human tie may perish;
Friend to friend unfaithful prove;
Mothers cease their own to cherish;
Heaven and earth at last remove;
But no changes
Can attend Jehovah's love.
3 In the furnace God may prove thee,
Thence to bring thee forth more bright,
But can never cease to love thee;
Thou art precious in his sight:
God is with thee--
God, thine everlasting light. Scripture: Psalm 125:2
Zion stands with hills surrounded
