The Church Triumphant
Author: Daniel S. Warner Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Men speak of "a church triumphant” Refrain First Line: Thank God for a church triumphant Lyrics: 1 Men speak of “a church triumphant”
As something on earth unknown,
They think us beneath the tyrant
Until we shall reach our home.
Refrain:
Thank God for a church triumphant,
All pure in this world below!
For the kingdom that Jesus founded
Does triumph o’er every foe.
2 Oh, cannot the great Redeemer
Prevail over Satan here?
Or must we remain yet under
Confusion, pressed down in fear? [Refrain]
3 He built on a sure foundation,
And said that the gates of hell
Against her divine munition
Can never indeed prevail. [Refrain]
4 ’Tis not in the church of Jesus
That people yet live in sin;
But in the dark creeds they’re joining,
And vainly are trusting in. [Refrain]
5 God’s church is alone triumphant,
In holiness all complete;
And all the dark pow’rs of Satan
She tramples beneath her feet.

God the Spirit, Guide and Guardian
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God the Spirit, guide and guardian,
windsped flame and hovering dove,
breath of life and voice of prophets,
sign of blessing, power of love:
give to those who lead your people
fresh anointing of your grace;
send them forth as bold apostles
to your church in every place.
2 Christ our Savior, sovereign, shepherd,
word made flesh, love crucified,
teacher, healer, suffering servant,
friend of sinners, foe of pride:
in your tending may all pastors*
learn and live a shepherd's care;
grant them courage and compassion
shown through word and deed and prayer.
3 Great Creator, life-bestower,
truth beyond all thought's recall,
fount of wisdom, womb of mercy,
giving and forgiving all:
as you know our strength and weakness,
so may those the church exalts
oversee her life steadfastly
yet not overlook her faults.
4 Triune God, mysterious being,
undivided and diverse,
deeper than our minds can fathom,
greater than our creeds rehearse:
help us in our varied callings
your full image to proclaim,
that our ministries uniting
may give glory to your name.

Brethren, We Have Met to Worship
Author: George Askins Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 248 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Brethren, we have met to worship
And adore the Lord our God;
Will you pray with all your power,
While we try to preach the Word?
All is vain unless the Spirit
Of the Holy One comes down;
Brethren, pray, and holy manna
Will be showered all around.
2 Brethren, see poor sinners round you
Slumb'ring on the brink of woe;
Death is coming, hell is moving,
Can you bear to let them go?
See our fathers and our mothers,
And our children sinking down;
Brethren, pray and holy manna
Will be showered all around.
3 Sisters, will you join and help us?
Moses' sister aided him;
Will you help the trembling mourners
Who are struggling hard with sin?
Tell them all about the Savior,
Tell them that He will be found;
Sisters, pray, and holy manna
Will be showered all around.
4 Let us love our God supremely,
Let us love each other, too;
Let us love and pray for sinners,
Till our God makes all things new.
Then He'll call us home to heaven,
At His table we'll sit down;
Christ will gird Himself, and serve us
With sweet manna all around.
