My foes are ever near me,
Around me and within;
But, Jesus, draw thou nearer,

There shall my servant be;

To serve thee to the end;
O give me grace to follow,
My Master and my Friend.

to Christ’s service are,
join together, join together,
both in work and prayer;
venture all on him, our Lord,
who assures us in his word,
we are always, we are always
objects of his care.
2 Showers of blessing, showers of blessing
from the Lord proceed,
strength supplying, strength supplying
in the time of need;
for no servant of our King
ever lacked for anything.
He will never, he will never
break the bruised reed.
3 Lord, have mercy, Lord, have mercy
on each land and place,
where your servants, where your servants
preach the word of grace;
life and pow'r on them bestow,
them with needful strength endow,
that with boldness, that with boldness
they may you confess.
4 May we faithful, may we faithful
in our service be,
truly careful, truly careful
in our ministry;
keep us to your church fast bound,
in the faith preserve us sound,
often weeping, often weeping
grateful tears of joy. Scripture: Isaiah 42:3 Languages: English Tune Title: SERVICE

Onward, Christian soldiers
Author: Sabine Baring-Gould Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #379 (1917) Topics: The Christian Life Christian Service Lyrics: 1 Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
With the Cross of Jesus
Going on before.
Christ, the royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See, His banners go!
Refrain:
Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
With the Cross of Jesus
Going on before.
2 Like a mighty army,
Moves the Church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod.
We are not divided,
All one body we,
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity. [Refrain]
3 Crowns and thrones may perish,
Kingdoms rise and wane,
But the Church of Jesus
Constant will remain.
Gates of hell can never
'Gainst that Church prevail;
We have Christ's own promise,
And that cannot fail. [Refrain]
4 Onward, then, ye faithful,
Join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song:
Glory, laud, and honor,
Unto Christ the King;
This, through countless ages,
Men and angels sing. [Refrain]
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GERTRUDE
Onward, Christian soldiers

Felice Giardini
1716 - 1796 Person Name: Felice de Giardini Topics: Christian Service Composer of "ITALIAN HYMN" in Moravian Book of Worship Felice Giardini, born in Italy. When young, he studied singing, harpsichord, and violin. He became a composer and violin virtuoso. By age 12 he was playing in theatre orchestras. His most instructive lesson: While playing a solo passage during an opera, he decided to show off his skills by improvising several bravura variations that the composer, Jommelli, had not written . Although the audience applauded loudly, Jomelli, who happened to be there, went up and slapped Giardini in the face. He learned a lesson from that. He toured Europe as a violinist, considered one of the greatest musical artists of his time. He served as orchestra leader and director of the Italian Opera in London, giving concerts. He tried to run a theatre in Naples, but encountered adversity. He went to Russia, but had little fortune there, where he died.
