A Charge to Keep I Have

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: HWC1986 #448 (1986) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 A charge to keep I have, A God to glorify, A never-dying soul to save, And fit it for the sky. 2 To serve the present age, My calling to fulfill; O may it all my pow'rs engage To do my Master's will! 3 Arm me with jealous care As in Thy sight to live, And now Thy servant, Lord, prepare A strict account to give! 4 Help me to watch and pray, And still on Thee rely, O let me not my trust betray, But press to realms on high.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Frederick H. Hedge Hymnal: HWC1986 #26 (1986) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.7 Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, A bulwark never failing; Our helper He amid the flood Of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe - His craft and pow’r are great, And, armed with cruel hate, On earth is not his equal. 2 Did we in our own strength confide, Our striving would be losing, Were not the right Man on our side, The man of God’s own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He - Lord Sabaoth His Name, From age to age the same, And He must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us, We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph thru us. The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him - His rage we can endure, For lo, his doom is sure: One little word shall fell him. 4 That word above all earthly pow’rs, No thanks to them, abideth; The Spirit and the gifts are ours Thru Him who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also - The body they may kill: God’s truth abideth still: His kingdom is forever. Amen.

The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me! 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day. Earth's joys grow dim; its glories pass away. Change and decay in all around I see; O Thou who changest not, abide with me! 3 I need Thy presence ev'ry passing hour. What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's pow'r? Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? Thro' clouds and sunshine, oh, abide with me! 4 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still if Thou abide with me! 5 Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes; Shine thro' the gloom and point me to the skies. Heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee! In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me! Amen. Topics: Comfort and Encouragement; Evening hymns; Fellowship with God; Funeral Hymns Tune Title: EVENTIDE
