Plenteous He is in truth and grace

Hymnal: The Methodist Hymn-Book with Tunes #V14 (1933) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: Plenteous he is in truth and grace; He wills that all the fallen race should turn, repent, and live; His pardoning grace for all is free; Transgression, sin, iniquity, He freely doth forgive. Mercy he doth for thousands keep; He goes and seeks the one lost sheep, And brings His wanderer home; And every soul that sheep might be: come then, my Lord, and gather me, My Jesus, quickly come!

Tired with the greatness of my way

Hymnal: The Methodist Hymn-Book with Tunes #V15 (1933) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: Tired with the greatness of my way, FromHim I would no longer stray, Bur rest inJesus have: Weary of sin, from sin would cease, Weary of mine own righteousness, And stoop, myself to save. Weary of passions unsubdued, Weary of vows in vain renewed, Of forms without the power, Of prayers, and hopes, complaints, and groans, My fainting soul in silence owns I can hold out no more.

O Lord, Be Thou My Helper True

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #18 (1934) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Lord, be Thou my helper true, For just and godly men are few; The faithful who can find? From truth and wisdom men depart, With flattering lips and double heart They speak their evil mind. 2 The lips that speak, the truth to hide, The tongues of arrogance and pride, That boastful words employ, False-speaking tongues that boast their might, That own no law, that know no right, Jehovah will destroy. 3 Because the poor are sore oppressed, Because the needy are distressed, And bitter are their cries, The Lord will be their Helper strong; To save them from contempt and wrong Jehovah will arise. 4 Jehovah's promises are sure, His words are true, His words are pure As silver from the flame. Though base men walk on every side, His saints are safe, whate'er betide, Protected by His Name.

Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice

Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #40 (1961) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice; It well becomes the good man's voice To sing Jehovah's praise. With harp and hymn of gladness sing, Your gift of sweetest music bring, To him a new song raise. 2 For upright is Jehovah's word; And all the doings of the Lord In faithfulness are wrought. In justice and in judgment right The Lord doth ever take delight; With goodness earth is fraught. 3 Jehovah's word the heav'ns hath made, And all the host of them arrayed His breath has caused to be. He rolls the waters heap on heap; He stores away the mighty deep In garners of the sea. 4 Let all the earth Jehovah fear, Let all that dwell both far and near In awe before him stand; For, lo, he spake and it was done, And all, his sovereign pow'r begun, Stood fast at his command. 5 He makes the nations' counsels vain, The plans the peoples would maintain Are thwarted by his hand. Jehovah's counsel stands secure, His purposes of heart endure, For evermore they stand. 6 O truly is the nation blessed Whose God, before the world confessed, Jehovah is alone; And blessed the people is whom he Has made his heritage to be, And chosen for his own.

Fret not though sinners’ gains increase; Forsake thy wrath, from anger cease; It will to evil tend. 5 The evil-doer soon shall die, But those that on the Lord rely Shall all the land obtain. A little while and thou shalt see That wicked man cut off shall be, They shall be sought in vain. 6 Yea, thou shalt soon consider well The place where they were wont to dwell, And it shall not be found; But saints shall all the land possess, And find delight and happiness Where fruits of peace abound. 7 The vile may plot against the just Who in the Lord Jehovah trust, But God will scorn them all; The Lord their coming day shall see, When broken all their power shall be, And ruin on them fall.

The Good Man's Steps Are Led Aright

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #72 (1934) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 The good man's steps are led aright, His way is pleasing in God's sight, Established it shall stand; He shall not perish though he fall, The mighty Lord, who rules o'er all, Upholds him with His hand. 2 Though I am old who young have been, No saint have I forsaken seen, Nor yet his home in need; He ever lends in gracious ways, His life true charity displays, His sons are blest indeed. 3 Depart from evil, do thou well, And evermore securely dwell; Jehovah loves the right. His faithfulness His saints have proved, Forever they shall stand unmoved, But sinners God will smite. 4 The righteous, through His favoring hand, Shall yet inherit all the land And dwell therein for aye; He talks of wisdom and of right, In God's pure law is his delight, His steps go not astray. 5 The wicked, watching for their prey, Desire the righteous man to slay, But God is on his side; He will not leave him in their hands, Nor count him guilty when he stands In judgment to be tried. 6 Wait on the Lord and keep His way; He will exalt thee, nor delay To give the land to thee; And when the wicked are cut off, The wicked who against thee scoff, Their judgment thou shalt see. 7 The wicked in great power are seen, Like spreading tree with foliage green That grows in native ground. I looked again, they were no more; I sought the men so proud before, But they could not be found. 8 Mark thou the upright day by day, Behold the perfect in his way, His journey ends in peace. Destroyed at once shall rebels be; Cut off from all posterity, Their very name shall cease. 9 Salvation is from God alone, Whom as their covert saints have known When by sore troubles tried; The Lord, who helped in troubles past, Will save them to the very last, For they in Him confide.

Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #133B (2018) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 How good and pleasant is the sight when brethren make it their delight to dwell in blest accord; such love is like anointing oil that consecrates for holy toil the servants of the Lord. 2 Such love in peace and joy distills as o’er the slopes of Hermon’s hills refreshing dew descends; the Lord commands his blessing there, and they that walk in love shall share in life that never ends. 3 How good and pleasant is the sight when brethren make it their delight to dwell in blest accord; the Lord commands his blessing there, and they that walk in love shall share in life that never ends.

The Tribes of the Southwest

Author: Rev. L. P. Brink Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #174 (1929) Meter: 8.8.6 D First Line: The Wallapai, the Navaho Lyrics: 1. The Wallapai, the Navaho, The Pima and the Papao, Have heard of Christ the Lord; Yea, Hopies and Mohaves too, And Maricopas, not a few, Give heed unto His Word. 2. The Yumas in their southern land, Apaches strong, a warlike band, His loving voice have heard; The Zunies in the village brown, Lagunas in their ancient town, Were by His message stirred. 3. The Utes, who in the Rockies dwell, And Jicarillas also, tell Of His redeeming grace; While Mescaleroes, 'way down south, Have heard the message of His mouth, Have seen His shining face. 4. But all along the Rio Grande The towns of many Puebloes stand Who have not heard His voice; O, who will bring that message true To Taos and to Isleta too, And make their hearts rejoice? 5. Who'll enter in where gates are barred, Where human hearts are seared and scarred By superstition's pow'r? O Lord, these fettered doors unclose, Cast down what doth Thy Word oppose, Dear Savior, speed the hour.

O Could I Speak the Matchless Worth

Author: Samuel Medley, 1738-1799 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #176 (2011) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O could I speak the matchless worth, O could I sound the glories forth Which in my Savior shine, I'd soar and touch the heavenly strings, And vie with Gabriel while he sings In notes almost divine, In notes almost divine. 2 I'd sing the precious blood He spilt, My ransom from the dreadful guilt Of sin and wrath divine! I'd sing His glorious righteousness, In which all perfect heavenly dress My soul shall ever shine, My soul shall ever shine. 3 I'd sing the characters He bears, And all the forms of love He wears, Exalted on His throne. In loftiest songs of sweetest praise, I would to everlasting days Make all His glories known, Make all His glories known. Amen.

O Friend of Sinners, Son of God

Author: Anna Hoppe Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #185 (1926) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Friend of sinners, Son of God, Who this drear vale of tears hast trod, Thou blest Immanuel, To Thee in faith we now appeal; The pow'r is Thine to bless and heal, Thou doest all things well. 2 The deaf, the dumb, the halt, the blind, In Thee, incarnate God, did find Relief in their distress; And lepers, pleading aid divine, Found healing in a word of Thine, For Thou canst heal and bless. 3 Our grateful prayers ascend to Thee, For Thou hast healed sin's leprosy, And cleansed us from its stain. O blest Physician, Thou hast still A cure for every mortal ill, A balm for every pain. 4 Our lives we consecrate to Thee, Thou spotless Lamb of Calvary, Let us be wholly Thine. Cleansed, pardoned, ransomed, healed by Thee, O grant us grace eternally To praise Thy love divine. Amen.
