Father of heav'n, whose love profound
Author: Edward Cooper Hymnal: TH1961 #88 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Father of heav'n, whose love profound

Before thy throne we sinners bend;
To us thy pard'ning love extend.

Our Prophet, Priest, Redeemer, Lord,
Before thy throne we sinners bend;
To us thy saving grace extend.

The soul is raised from sin and death,
Before thy throne we sinners bend;
To us thy quick'ning pow'r extend.

And lead us out of death to life.

Lord, keep us steadfast in thy Word
Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb
Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: TH1961 #93 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb
To search the starry vault profound;
In vain would wing her flight sublime
To find creation's utmost bound.
2 But weaker yet that thought must prove
To search thy great eternal plan,
Thy sovereign counsels, born of love
Long ages ere the world began.
3 When my dim reason would demand
Why that, or this, thou dost ordain,
By some vast deep I seem to stand,
Whose secrets I must ask in vain.
4 When doubts disturb my troubled breast,
And all is dark as night to me,
Here, as on solid rock, I rest,—
That so it seemeth good to thee.
5 Be this my joy, that evermore
Thou rulest all things at thy will;
Thy sovereign wisdom I adore,
And calmly, sweetly, trust thee still.
Amen. Topics: Decrees of God; Doubt; God Sovereignty of ; Mystery of God's Ways; Trust in God Scripture: Job 11:7 Languages: English Tune Title: CANONBURY

Arise, O Lord, our God, arise
Hymnal: TH1961 #100 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Arise, O Lord, our God, arise
And enter now into thy rest;
O let this house be thine abode,
For ever with thy presence blest.
2 Thy gracious cov'nant, Lord, fulfil,
Turn not away from us thy face;
Establish thou Messiah's throne
And let him reign within this place.
3 Thy Zion thou hast chosen, Lord,
And thou hast said, I love her well,
This is my constant resting place,
And here will I delight to dwell.

For Zion's good, the Lord hath said;
I will supply her daily need
And satisfy her poor with bread.

The tender mercies of the Lord;
Thy faithfulness will I proclaim,
And every age shall know thy Name.

For ever builded firm and sure,
Of faithfulness that never dies,
Established changeless in the skies.

For he has faithful cov'nant made,
And he has sworn that David's Son
Shall ever sit upon his throne.
4 For him my mercy shall endure,
My cov'nant made with him is sure;
His throne and race I will maintain
For ever, while the heav'ns remain.

Whose promise stands from days of yore.
His word is faithful now as then;
Blessed be his Name, Amen, Amen.

Praise, Lord, for thee in Zion waits
Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: TH1961 #114 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Praise, Lord, for thee in Zion waits;
Prayer shall besiege thy temple gates:
All flesh shall to thy throne repair,
And find, through Christ, salvation there.

Leave not our trembling hearts to fail:
O thou that hearest prayer, descend,
And still be found the sinner's Friend.
3 How blest thy saints! how safely led,
How surely kept, how richly fed!
Saviour of all in earth and sea,
How happy they who rest in thee!
4 Thy hand sets fast the mighty hills,
Thy voice the troubled ocean stills;
Evening and morning hymn thy praise,
And earth thy bounty wide displays.
5 The year is with thy goodness crowned;
Thy clouds drop wealth the world around;
Through thee the deserts laugh and sing,
And nature smiles, and owns her King.
6 Lord, on our souls thine influence pour;
The moral waste within restore:
O let thy love our spring-tide be,
And make us all bear fruit to thee.

Praise, Lord, for thee in Zion waits
O, love, how deep, how broad, how high
Author: Benjamin Webb Hymnal: TH1961 #121 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O, love, how deep, how broad, how high,
How passing thought and fantasy,
That God, the Son of God, should take
Our mortal form for mortals' sake!
2 For us baptized, for us he bore
His holy fast, and hungered sore,
For us temptations sharp he knew,
For us the tempter overthrew.
3 For us to wicked men betrayed,
Scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed;
For us he bore the cross's death,
For us at length gave up his breath.
4 For us he rose from death again,
For us he went on high to reign,
For us he sent his Spirit here
To guide, to strengthen and to cheer.
5 All honor, laud, and glory be,
O Jesus, virgin-born, to thee;
Whom with the Father we adore,
And Holy Ghost, for evermore.

O Christ, our King, Creator, Lord
Author: Gregory the Great, c. 540-604; Ray Palmer Hymnal: TH1961 #134 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our King, Creator, Lord,
Saviour of all who trust thy Word,
To them who seek thee ever near,
Now to our praises bend thine ear.
2 In thy dear cross a grace is found—
It flows from every streaming wound—
Whose pow'r our inbred sin controls,
Breaks the firm bond, and frees our souls.
3 Thou didst create the stars of night;
Yet thou hast veiled in flesh thy light,
Hast deigned a mortal form to wear,
A mortal's painful lot to bear.
4 When thou didst hang upon the tree,
The quaking earth acknowledged thee;
When thou didst here yield up thy breath,
The world grew dark as shades of death.
5 Now in the Father's glory high,
Great Conqueror, nevermore to die,
Us by thy mighty pow'r defend,
And reign through ages without end.
Amen. Topics: Christ, The Lord Jesus; Christ Creator; Christ Cross of; Christ Kingly Office of; Christ Praise of; Miracles; Original Sin Scripture: Isaiah 44:24 Languages: English Tune Title: GRACE CHURCH
O Christ, our King, Creator, Lord
All praise to thee, Eternal Lord
Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: TH1961 #155 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 All praise to thee, Eternal Lord,
Clothed in a garb of flesh and blood;
Choosing a manger for thy throne,
While worlds on worlds are thine alone.
2 Once did the skies before thee bow;
A Virgin's arms contain thee now:
Angels who did in thee rejoice
Now listen for thine infant voice.
3 A little Child, thou art our Guest,
That weary ones in thee may rest;
Forlorn and lowly is thy birth,
That we may rise to heav'n from earth.
4 Thou comest in the darksome night
To make us children of the light,
To make us, in the realms divine,
Like thine own angels round thee shine.
5 All this for us thy love hath done;
By this to thee our love is won:
For this we tune our cheerful lays,
And shout our thanks in ceaseless praise.
Amen. Topics: Christ, The Lord Jesus; Christ Birth of; Christ Humiliation of; Christ Love and Grace of; Christ Praise of Scripture: Matthew 11:28 Languages: English Tune Title: CANONBURY

From heaven high I come to you
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Martin Luther Hymnal: TH1961 #166 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 "From heaven high I come to you,
I bring you tidings good and new;
Glad tidings of great joy I bring,
Whereof I now will say and sing:
2 "To you this night is born a child
Of Mary, chosen virgin mild;
This little child, of lowly birth,
Shall be the joy of all the earth.
3 "This is the Christ, our God and Lord,
Who in all need shall aid afford;
He will himself your Saviour be
From all your sins to set you free.
4 "These are the tokens ye shall mark:
The swaddling-clothes and manger dark:
There ye shall find the Infant laid
By whom the heav'ns and earth were made."
5 Now let us all with gladsome cheer
Go with the shepherds and draw near
To see the precious gift of God,
Who hath his own dear Son bestowed.
6 Welcome to earth, thou noble Guest,
Through whom the sinful world is blest!
In my distress thou com'st to me;
What thanks shall I return to thee?
