Rise, My Soul, to Watch and Pray
Author: Johann B. Freystein, 1671-1718; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 Meter: 7.6.7.6.3.3.6.6 Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Mark 7:20-23 Lyrics: 1 Rise, my soul, to watch and pray;
from your sleep awaken!
Be not by the evil day
unawares o'ertaken;
for the foe,
well we know,
is a harvest reaping
while the saints are sleeping.
2 Watch against the devil's snares,
lest asleep he find you;
for indeed no pains he spares
to deceive and blind you.
Satan's prey
oft are they
who secure are sleeping
and no watch are keeping.
3 Watch! Let not the wicked world
with its lies defeat you
lest with bold deceptions hurled
it betray and cheat you.
Watch and see,
lest there be
faithless friends to charm you,
who but seek to harm you.
4 Watch against yourself, my soul,
lest with grace you trifle;
let not self thy thoughts control
nor God's mercy stifle.
Pride and sin
lurk within,
all your hopes to shatter;
heed not when they flatter.
5 But while watching also pray
to the Lord unceasing.
God protects you day by day,
strength and faith increasing.
so that still
mind and will
shall unite to serve him
and forever love him.

Sing Praises Old and New
Author: Brian Wren (1936-) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Mark 7:21-37 Lyrics: 1 Sing praises old and new,
past and present join in one.
Old covenants renew:
new commitments have begun.
God's soaring purpose spans
all ages, lives and lands.
Christ's open, wounded hands
past and present join in one.
2 Word, from the heart of God,
costly, unexpected grace;
Love, making all things good,
Light of all the human race;
hail, Wisdom, deep and vast,
shining in Israel's past,
raising the least and last:
costly, unexpected grace!
3 Great Spirit, make us wise,
doors of promise open wide.
Through evil's deadly lies
truth and goodness set aside,
faith never stands alone,
hope rolls away the stone,
love makes your presence known,
doors of promise open wide.
4 People of hope, be strong!
Love is making all things new.
Lift our united song,
show what faith can dream and do!
Come, Presence ever near,
revive us, year by year.
Sing through our joy and fear,
"Love is making all things new!" Topics: Christian Life; Covenant; Hope; Love; Wisdom Used With Tune: FONDREN
