A Broken Heart, My God, My King
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #308 (2011) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 A broken heart, my God, my King,
To Thee a sacrifice I bring;
The God of grace will ne'er despise
A broken heart for sacrifice.
2 My soul lies humbled in the dust,
And owns Thy dreadful sentence just;
Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye,
And save the soul condemned to die.
3 Then will I teach the world Thy ways;
Sinners shall learn Thy sovereign grace;
I'll lead them to my Savior's blood,
And they shall praise a pardoning God.
4 O may Thy love inspire my tongue!
Salvation shall be all my song;
And all my powers shall join to bless
The Lord, my strength and righteousness.

To do my Master's will!
3 Arm me with jealous care,
As in Thy sight to live,
And O, Thy servant, Lord, prepare,
A strict account to give!
4 Help me to watch and pray,
And on Thyself rely
Assured, if I my trust betray,
I shall forever die.

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 power 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 through 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 powers,
No thanks to them, abideth;
The Spirit and the gifts are ours
Through 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. Topics: God the Father Majesty and Power; Faith; God Refuge; Processionals; Recessionals Scripture: Psalm 46 Languages: English Tune Title: EIN' FESTE BURG

The lifelong bleeding of the soul be o’er.

Each half-formed purpose and dark thought of sin;
Quench, ere it rise, each selfish, low desire,
And keep my soul as Thine, calm and divine.

When I have heard Thy voice and felt Thy power;
Then evil lost its grasp, and passion hushed,
Owned the divine enchantment of the hour.

Abide in me and they shall ever be;
Fulfill at once Thy precept and my prayer;
Come, and abide in me, and I in Thee.

What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.

Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?

Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to God?
4 Sure I must fight if I would reign:
Increase my courage, Lord;
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by Thy word.
5 Thy saints in all this glorious war
Shall conquer, though they die,
They see the triumph from afar,
By faith they bring it nigh.
6 When that illustrious day shall rise,
And all Thy armies shine
In robes of victory through the skies,
The glory shall be Thine. Topics: The Christian Life Loyalty and Courage; Conflict; Victory Scripture: 1 Corinthians 16:13 Languages: English Tune Title: ARLINGTON
Am I a Soldier of the Cross
Amazing Grace! How Sweet the Sound
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807; Anonymous Hymnal: AMEC1984 #226 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
3 Through many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
4 The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.
5 Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil
A life of joy and peace.
6 The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.
7 When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we'd first begun. Topics: The Christian Life Call to Discipleship; God Grace; Invitation; Invitation; Salvation Scripture: 1 Chronicles 17:16-17 Languages: English Tune Title: AMAZING GRACE

And Are We Yet Alive
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #304 (2011) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And are we yet alive,
And see each other's face?
Glory and praise to Jesus give
For His redeeming grace.
2 Preserved by power divine
To full salvation here,
Again in Jesus' praise we join,
And in His sight appear.
3 What troubles have we seen,
What conflicts have we passed,
Fightings without, and fears within,
Since we assembled last.
4 But out of all the Lord
Hath brought us by His love;
And still He doth His help afford,
And hides our life above.
5 Then let us make our boast
Of His redeeming power,
Which saves us to the uttermost,
Till we can sin no more.
6 Let us take up the cross
Till we the crown obtain;
And gladly reckon all things loss,
So we may Jesus gain. Topics: The Christian Life Dedication and Consecration; Faith; Trials Scripture: Luke 12:48 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THOMAS
And Are We Yet Alive
And Can I Yet Delay
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #270 (2011) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And can I yet delay
My little all to give?
To tear my soul from earth away
For Jesus to receive?
2 Nay, but I yield, I yield!
I can hold out no more.
I sink, by dying love compelled,
And own Thee, Conqueror!
3 Though late, I all forsake:
My friends, my all resign.
Gracious Redeemer, take, O take,
And seal me ever Thine!
4 Come, and possess me whole,
Nor thence again remove;
Settle and fix my wavering soul
With all Thy weight of love.
5 My one desire be this:
Thy only love to know,
To seek and taste no other bliss,
No other good below.

And Can I Yet Delay
And Can It Be That I Should Gain
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #459 (2011) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 And can it be that I should gain
An interest in the Savior's blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain?
For me, who Him to death pursued?
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
2 He left His Father's throne above:
So free, so infinite His grace!
Emptied Himself of all but love,
And bled for Adam's helpless race.
'Tis mercy all, immense and free,
For O, my God, it found out me!
'Tis mercy all, immense and free,
For O, my God, it found out me!
3 Long my imprisoned spirit lay,
Fast bound in sin and nature's night.
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray.
I woke; the dungeon flamed with light!
My chains fell off, my heart was free:
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.
My chains fell off, my heart was free:
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.
4 No condemnation now I dread:
Jesus, and all in Him, is mine!
Alive in Him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness divine.
Bold I approach th'eternal throne
And claim the crown, through Christ, my own.
Bold I approach th'eternal throne
And claim the crown, through Christ, my own. Topics: The Christian Life Love; Love Scripture: Romans 5:6-9 Languages: English Tune Title: SAGINA

And Let Our Bodies Part
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #528 (2011) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And let our bodies part,
To different climes repair;
Inseparably joined in heart
The friends of Jesus are.
2 Jesus, the cornerstone,
Did first our hearts unite;
And still He keeps our spirits one
Who walk with Him in white.
3 O let us still proceed
In Jesus’ work below,
And, following our triumphant Head,
To further conquest go.
4 O let our heart and mind
Continually ascend,
That heaven of repose to find,
Where all our labors end!
