O God, Our Help in Ages Past
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: CH1995 #67 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home!
2 Under the shadow of thy throne
still may we dwell secure;
sufficient is thine arm alone,
and our defense is sure.
3 Before the hills in order stood,
or earth received her frame,
from everlasting thou art God,
to endless years the same.
4 A thousand ages, in thy sight,
are like an evening gone;
short as the watch that ends the night
before the rising sun.
5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
soon bears us all away;
we fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.
6 O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
be thou our guide while life shall last,
and our eternal home.

Your Love, O God
Author: Anders Frostenson; Fred Kaan Hymnal: CH1995 #71 (1995) Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: Your love, O God, is broad like beach and meadow Lyrics: 1 Your love, O God, is broad like beach and meadow,
wide as the wind, and our eternal home.
You leave us free to seek you or reject you,
you give us room to answer "yes" or "no."
2 We long for freedom where our truest being
is given hope and courage to unfold.
We seek in freedom space and scope for dreaming,
and look for ground where trees and plants can grow.
3 But there are walls that keep us all divided;
we fence each other in with hate and war.
Fear is the bricks and mortar of our prison,
our pride of self, the prison coat we wear.
4 O judge us, God, and in your judgment free us,
and set our feet in freedom's open space;
take us as far as your compassion wanders
among the children of the human race. Topics: God Beyond All Name and Form Grace and Love; Dignity and Equality; Freedom and Liberation; God; God: Grace; God: Love; Judgment Languages: English Tune Title: VICAR
Your Love, O God
To God Be the Glory
Author: Fanny J. Crosby Hymnal: CH1995 #72 (1995) Meter: 11.11.11.11 with refrain First Line: To God be the glory, great things he hath done! Refrain First Line: Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear his voice! Lyrics: 1 To God be the glory, great things he hath done!
So loved he the world that he gave us his Son,
who yielded his life an atonement for sin,
and opened the life gate that all may go in.
Refrain:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear his voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the people rejoice!
Oh, come to the Father, thru Jesus the Son,
and give him the glory, great things he hath done.
2 O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
to every believer the promise of God;
the vilest offender who truly believes,
that moment from Jesus a pardon receives. [Refrain]
3 Great things he hath taught us, great things he hath done,
and great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;
but purer, and higher, and greater will be
our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see. [Refrain]

There's a Wideness in God's Mercy
Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: CH1995 #73 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy,
like the wideness of the sea;
there's a kindness in God's justice,
which is more than liberty.
2 There is welcome for the sinner,
and more graces for the good!
There is mercy with the Savior;
there is healing in his blood.
3 For the love of God is broader
than the measure of our mind;
and the heart of the Eternal
is most wonderfully kind.
4 If our love were but more simple,
we would rest upon God's word;
and our lives would be illumined
by the presence of the Lord. Topics: God Beyond All Name and Form Grace and Love; Forgiveness; God; God: Grace; God: Love; Justice; Love: For God; Healing Languages: English Tune Title: WELLESLEY

The Care the Eagle Gives Her Young
Author: R. Deane Postlethwaite Hymnal: CH1995 #76 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The care the eagle gives her young,
safe in her lofty nest,
is like the tender love of God
for us made manifest.
2 As when the time to venture comes,
she stirs them out to flight,
so we are pressed to boldly try,
to strive for daring height.
3 And if we flutter helplessly,
as fledgling eagles fall,
beneath us lift God's mighty wings
to bear us, one and all. Topics: God Beyond All Name and Form Grace and Love; Courage; Empowerment; God; God: Grace; God: Love; God: Tenderness Scripture: Deuteronomy 32:11 Languages: English Tune Title: CRIMOND
