Sing Praise to God, Who Reigns Above
Author: Johann Jacob Schütz; Frances Elizabeth Cox Hymnal: Voices United #216 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Proper 19 Year A; Proper 19 Year C Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God who reigns above,
the God of all creation,
the God of power, the God of love,
the God of our salvation;
with healing balm my soul is filled,
and every faithless murmur stilled:
to God all praise and glory!
2 What God's almighty power hath made,
God's gracious mercy keepeth:
by morning glow or evening shade
God's watchful eye ne'er sleepeth;
within the shelter of God's might, lo!
all is just and all is right:
to God all praise and glory!
3 Our God is never far away,
but through all grief distressing,
an ever-present help and stay,
our peace, and joy, and blessing;
as with a mother's tender hand,
God gently leads the chosen band:
to God all praise and glory!
4 Thus all my gladsome way along,
I sing aloud thy praises
that all may hear the grateful song
my voice unwearied raises.
Be joyful in your God, my heart!
Both soul and body take your part:
to God all praise and glory! Languages: English Tune Title: MIT FREUDEN ZART

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

on which the Prince of glory died,
my richest gain I count but loss,
and pour contempt on all my pride.
2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
save in the death of Christ, my God:
all the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to his blood.
3 See, from his head, his hands, his feet,
sorrow and love flow mingled down!
Did e’er such love and sorrow meet,
or thorns compose so rich a crown?
4 Were the whole realm of nature mine,
that were a present far too small:
love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all.
1 Quand je me tourne vers le croix
où Christ expire su le bois
mon coeur blessé rempli du deuil,
prend en dégoût mon fol orgueil.
2 Qui donc pourrait calmer ce coeur
hormis la crois de mon Sauveur?
Tous mes plaisirs, mes vains désirs,
je veux, ô Christ, te les offrir.
3 Oh vois, des mains, de son côté,
du front d'épines couronné,
douleur, angoisse, amour mêlés,
descendre pour nous racheter.
4 Si je t'offrais le monde entier
ce don serait pris es pitié.
Amour si grand, si pur, si doux
veut âme, corps, mon coeur, mon tout!

There's a Wideness in God's Mercy
Author: Frederick William Faber Hymnal: Voices United #271 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Proper 19 Year C 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 no place where earth's sorrows
are more felt than up in heaven;
there is no place where earth's failings
have such gracious judgement given.
3 There is plentiful redemption
in the blood that Christ has shed;
there is joy for all the members
in the sorrows of the Head.
4 Troubled souls, why will you scatter
like a crowd of frightened sheep?
Foolish hearts, why will you wander
from a love so true and deep?
5 For the love of God is broader
than the measures of the mind,
and the heart of the Eternal
is most wonderfully kind. Tune Title: GOTT WILL'S MACHEN

all that is not holy, all that is not true;
crown him as your Captain in temptation's hour;
let his will enfold you in its light and power.
