O My Soul, Bless God, the Father

Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #61 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 O my soul, bless God the Father; All within me bless His Name; Bless the Father, and forget not All His mercies to proclaim: 2 Who forgiveth thy transgressions, Thy diseases all who heals; Who redeems thee from destruction, Who with thee so kindly deals. 3 Far as east from west is distant, He hath put away our sin; Like the pity of a father Hath the Lord's compassion been. 4 As it was without beginning, So it lasts without an end; To their children's children ever Shall His righteousness extend. 5 Unto such as keep His covenant And are steadfast in His way; Unto those who still remember His commandments, and obey. 6 Bless the Father, all His creatures, Ever under His control; All throughout His vast dominion Bless the Father, O my soul.

Of All the Thoughts of God That Are

Author: Elizabeth B Browning Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #62 (1999) Lyrics: 1 Of all the thoughts of God that are Borne inward into souls afar, Along the psalmist's music deep, Now tell me if there any is, For gift or grace surpassing this: "He giveth His beloved sleep"? 2 What would we give to our beloved,– The hero's heart to be unmoved, The poet's star-tuned harp, to sweep, The patriot's voice, to teach and rouse, The monarch's crown, to light the brows? He giveth His beloved sleep. 3 "Sleep soft, beloved!" we sometimes say, Who have no tune to charm away Sad dreams that through the eyelids creep, But never doleful dream again Shall break the happy slumber when He giveth His beloved sleep. 4 His dews drop mutely on the hill, His cloud above it saileth still, Though on its slope men sow and reap; More softly than the dew is shed, Or cloud is floated overhead. He giveth His beloved sleep. AMEN. Topics: Glorifying God Languages: English Tune Title: PATER OMNIUM

O For a Heart to Praise My God

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #64 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God, a heart from sin set free; a heart that always feels thy blood so freely shed for me. 2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek, my great Redeemer's throne, where only Christ is heard to speak, where Jesus reigns alone. 3 A humble, lowly, contrite heart, believing, true, and clean, which neither life nor death can part from Christ who dwells within. 4 A heart in every thought renewed and full of love divine, perfect and right and pure and good, a copy, Lord, of thine. 5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart, come quickly from above; write thy new name upon my heart, thy new, best name of Love.

But, through all grief distressing, An ever-present help and stay, Our peace, and joy, and blessing; As with a mother's tender hand, He leads His own, His chosen band: To God all praise and glory. 4 Thus, all my toilsome way along I sing aloud Thy praises, That men may hear the grateful song My voice unwearied raises: Be joyful in the Lord, my heart: Both soul and body, bear your part: To God all praise and glory!

God of Our Fathers, Known of Old

Author: Rudyard Kipling, 1865-1936 Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #69 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 God of our fathers, known of old, Lord of our far-flung battle line, Beneath whose awful hand we hold Dominion over palm and pine: Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget! 2 The tumult and the shouting dies; The captains and the kings depart; Still stands Thine ancient sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heart: Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget! 3 Far called our navies melt away. On dune and headland sinks the fire; Lo, all our pomp of yesterday Is one with Nineveh and Tyre! Judge of the nations, spare us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget! 4 If, drunk with sight of power, we loose Wild tongues that have not Thee in awe, Such boasting as the Gentiles use Or lesser breeds without the law: Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget! 5 For heathen heart that puts her trust In reeking tube and iron shard; All valiant dust that builds on dust, And guarding calls not Thee to guard: For frantic boast and foolish word, Thy mercy on Thy people, Lord!

God Moves in a Mysterious Way

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #70 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform. He plants his footsteps in the sea, And rides upon the storm. 2 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust Him for His grace. Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. 3 His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour. The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower. 4 Blind unbelief is sure to err, And scan His work in vain. God is His own interpreter, And He will make it plain. AMEN.
