Guardian of Pure Hearts, and Hearer

Author: Johan Olof Wallin Hymnal: HOoS1926 #313 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 84:10 Lyrics: 1 Guardian of pure hearts, and Hearer, Lord, of ev'ry faithful prayer, In Thy courts one day is dearer Than a thousand days elsewhere. Worn with earth's unrest, how sweet In Thy temple fair to meet! There to sing away each sorrow That from life and toil we borrow! 2 With the righteous oft it fareth Here as if his deeds were ill; Blight fair virtue's flow'rs impaireth, Weeds of vice do flourish still; Joy and fortune haste away, Friends with friends--how short their stay! Rachel still her children mourneth, And her soul from comfort turneth. 3 But when here devoutly soareth High the temple-anthem sweet, Grief grows calm, no plaint outpoureth, Hearts with holy rapture beat: Free from earthly clouds, the soul Presses toward a higher goal, Takes from hope the comfort given, Speaks e'en now the tongue of heaven. 4 O my soul, on wings ascending, Thou on Salem's mount shalt rest; There where cherub-harps are blending With the singing of the blest; Let thy note of praise and prayer To thy God precede thee there, While e'en yet a careworn mortal, Still without Thy Father's portal. 5 Christians, while on earth abiding, Let us ever praise and pray, Firmly in our God confiding, As our fathers in their day; Be the children's voices raised To the God their fathers praised. Let Thy bounty, failing never, Be on us and all forever. 6 Bless us, Father, and protect us, Be our souls' sure hiding-place, Let Thy wisdom still direct us, Light our darkness with Thy grace! Let Thy countenance on us shine, Fill us all with peace divine. Praise the Father, Son, and Spirit, Praise Him all that life inherit. Amen.

Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken

Author: John Newton Hymnal: HOoS1926 #271 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Psalm 87:3 Lyrics: 1 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 may'st smile at all thy foes. 2 See, the streams of living waters, Springing from eternal 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? 3 Saviour, if of Zion's city I, through grace, a member am, Let the world deride or pity, I will glory in Thy Name. Fading is the worldling's pleasure, All his boasted pomp and show; Solid joys and lasting treasure None but Zion's children know. Amen.
