My Country, 'Tis of Thee
Author: Samuel F. Smith, 1808-1895 Hymnal: HPP2007 #299 (2007) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Tune Title: AMERICA Lyrics: 1 My country, 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrim's pride,
From ev'ry mountainside
Let freedom ring.
2 My native country, thee,
Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love:
I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.
3 Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees
Sweet freedom's song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break;
The sound prolong.
4 Our fathers' God, to Thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing;
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God, our King. Topics: Creation; Freedom; Heritage; Nation; Peace; Providence; Sacrifice Scripture: Proverbs 14:34 Languages: English

If Thou art by my side,
Nor wander from the pathway
If Thou wilt be my Guide.

In accents clear and still,
Above the storms of passion,
The murmurs of self-will.
O speak to reassure me,
To hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
Thou guardian of my soul.

To all who follow Thee,
That where Thou art in glory,
There shall Thy servant be.
And Jesus I have promised
To serve Thee to the end;
O give me grace to follow ,
My Master and my Friend.
4 O let me feel Thee near me!
The world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
The tempting sounds I hear;
My foes are ever near me,
Around me and within;
But Jesus, draw Thou nearer
And shield my soul from sin.

To a Maid Engaged to Joseph
Author: Gracia Grindal, 1943- Hymnal: HPP2007 #94 (2007) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6 Tune Title: ANNUNCIATION Lyrics: 1 To a maid engaged to Joseph,
The angel Gabriel came.
“Fear not,” the angel told her,
“I come to bring good news.
Good news I come to tell you,
Good news, I say, good news.
2 “For you are highly favored
By God, the Lord of all,
Who even now is with you,
You are on earth most blest,
You are most blest, most blessed;
God chose you, you are blest!”
3 But Mary was most troubled
To hear the angel’s word.
What was the angel saying?
It troubled her to hear,
To hear the angel’s message,
It troubled her to hear.
4 “Fear not, for God is with you,
And you shall bear a child.
His name shall be called Jesus,
God’s offspring from on high.
And He shall reign forever,
Forever reign on high.”
5 “How shall this be?” said Mary,
“I am not yet a wife.”
The angel answered quickly,
“The pow'r of the Most High
Will come upon you shortly;
Your child shall be God’s child.”
6 As Mary heard the angel,
She wondered at his words.
“Behold, I am your handmaid,”
She said unto her God.
“So be it, I am ready
According to your Word.” Topics: Advent; Advent; Jesus Christ Scripture: Luke 1:28 Languages: English

Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,

Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as the curse is found.
4 He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love
And wonders, wonders of His love.

In the harvests we are sharing,
God's will is done.

For the truths that still confound us,
Most of all, that love has found us,
