Father! be Thy blessing shed

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #249 (1898) Lyrics: 1 Father! be Thy blessing shed On Thy chosen servant's head; Saviour! needed grace impart To sustain and keep his heart; Holy Spirit! with Thy fire Touch his lips, his soul inspire, That Thy Truth through him be told Fearlessly to young and old. 2 Seal this day the vows that hold Flock and shepherd in one fold. May he Jesus' mandates keep, "Feed my lambs" and "Feed My sheep"! By Thee to Thy people sent With Thy Word and Sacrament, May he so proclaim the Word That who hear him hear Thee, Lord. 3 In Thy vineyard called to toil, Wisely may he search the soil; Sinners may he love and win, While he hates and brands the sin. Give him boldness for the right, Give him meekness in the fight, Teach him zeal and care to blend, Give him patience to the end. 4 Grant him in his charge to find Listening ear and fervent mind, Helpful counsels, deepening peace, Earnest life, and glad increase; May they, by each other led, Grow to one in Christ, their head, And, at last, together be Ripe for heaven and meet for Thee.

Fear not, O little flock, the foe

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #201 (1898) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Fear not, 0 little flock, the foe, Who madly seeks your overthrow; Dread not his rage and power: What though your courage sometimes faints, His seeming triumph o'er God's saints Lasts but a little hour. 2 Fear not! be strong! your cause belongs To Him who can avenge your wrongs; Leave it to Him, your Lord: Though hidden yet from mortal eyes, His Gideon yet shall for you rise, Uphold you and His Word. 3 As true as God's own Word is true, Not earth nor hell, with all their crew, Against us shall prevail. A jest and byword are they grown; "God is with us;" we are His own; Our victory cannot fail. 4 Amen, Lord Jesus, grant our prayer! Great Captain, now Thine arm make bare; Fight for us once again! So shall Thy saints and martyrs raise A mighty chorus to Thy praise, World without end. Amen.
