He it is who works within us, teaching rebel hearts to pray, he whose holy intercessions rise for us both night and day. 4 He, the mighty God, indwells us; his to strengthen, help, empow'r, his to overcome the tempter, ours to call in danger's hour. In his strength we dare to battle all the raging hosts of sin, and by him alone we conquer foes without and foes within. 5 Father, grant your Holy Spirit in our hearts may rule today, grieved not, quenched not, but unhindered, work in us his sov'reign way. Fill us with your holy fullness, God the Father, Spirit, Son; in us, through us, then, forever, shall your perfect will be done.

All Mankind Fell in Adam's Fall

Author: Lazarus Spengler; Matthias Loy Hymnal: TPH2018 #260 (2018) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Genesis 3:1-19 Lyrics: 1 All mankind fell in Adam's fall, one common sin infects them all; from sire to son the bane descends, and over all its curse impends. 2 Through all man's pow'rs corruption creeps and him in dreadful bondage keeps; in guilt he draws his infant breath and reaps its fruits of woe and death. 3 From hearts depraved, to evil prone, flow thoughts and deeds of sin alone; God's image lost, the darkened soul nor seeks nor finds its heav'nly goal. 4 But Christ, the second Adam, came to bear our sin and woe and shame, to be our Life, our Light, our Way, our only Hope, our only Stay. 5 As by one man all mankind fell and, born in sin, was doomed to hell, so by one Man, who took our place, we all received the gift of grace. 6 We thank thee, Christ; new life is ours, new light, new hope, new strength, new pow'rs: may grace our ev'ry way attend until we reach our journey's end!

Thus Saith the Mercy of the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: TPH2018 #190 (2018) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Genesis 17:7 Lyrics: 1 Thus saith the mercy of the Lord: "I'll be a God to thee; I'll bless thy numerous race, and they shall be a seed to me." 2 Abram believed the promised grace and gave his child to God, but water seals the blessing now that once was sealed with blood. 3 Jesus the ancient faith confirms, to our forefathers giv'n; he takes young children to his arms, and calls them heirs of heav'n. 4 Our God, how faithful are his ways! His love endures the same; nor from the promise of his grace blots out his children's name. 5 Thus to the parents and their seed shall thy salvation come; and numerous households meet at last in one eternal home.
