O Rock of Ages, one foundation

Author: H. A. Martin Meter: 9.8.9.8 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Rock of Ages, one foundation, On which the living Church doth rest,-- The Church, whose walls are strong salvation, Whose gates are praise,--Thy name be blest! 2 Son of the living God, O call us Once and again to follow Thee; And give us strength, whate'er befall us, Thy true disciples still to be. 3 When fears appall, and faith is failing, Make Thy voice hard o'er wind and wave, "Why doubt?"--and in Thy love prevailing Put forth Thine hand to help and save. 4 And if our coward hearts deny Thee, In inmost thought, in deed, or word, Let not our hardness still defy Thee, But with a look subdue us, Lord. 5 O strengthen Thou our weak endeavor Thee in Thy sheep to serve and tend, To give ourselves to Thee for ever, And find Thee with us to the end.

Come, living God, when least expected

Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, living God, when least expected, when minds are dull and hearts are cold, through sharpening word and warm affection revealing truths as yet untold. 2 Break from the tomb in which we hide you to speak again in startling ways; break through the words in which we bind you to resurrect our lifeless praise. 3 Come now, as once you came to Moses within the bush alive with flame; or to Elijah on the mountain, by silence pressing home your claim. 4 So, let our minds be sharp to read you in sight or sound or printed page, and let us greet you in our neighbours, in ardent youth or mellow age. 5 Then, through our gloom, your Son will meet us as vivid truth and living Lord, exploding doubt and disillusion to scatter hope and joy abroad. 6 Then we will share his radiant brightness and, blazing through the dread of night, illuminate by love and reason, for those in darkness, faith's delight.

O Thou who turnest into morning The shadows of the passing night, Again to conscious life returning, We bless Thee for the newborn light. 2.

That we may offer Thee thanksgiving Beyond our prayers and songs that rise In greater faithfulness of living, In deeper love through sacrifice. Used With Tune: CHURCH VIGILANT
