We Sing the Mighty Power of God
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 471 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We sing the mighty power of God
that made the mountains rise,
that spread the flowing seas abroad
and built the lofty skies.
We sing the wisdom that ordained
the sun to rule the day;
the moon shines full at his command,
and all the stars obey.
2 We sing the goodness of the Lord
that filled the earth with food;
he formed the creatures with his word
and then pronounced them good.
Lord, how your wonders are displayed,
where'er we turn our eyes,
if we survey the ground we tread
or gaze upon the skies.
3 There's not a plant or flower below
but makes your glories known,
and clouds arise and tempests blow
by order from your throne;
while all that borrows life from you
is ever in your care,
and everywhere that we can be,
you, God, are present there.

When Jesus Left His Father's Throne
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 128 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When Jesus left his Father's throne,
He chose a humble birth;
Like us, unhonored and unknown,
He came to dwell on earth.
Like him may we be found below,
In wisdom's paths of peace;
Like him in grace and knowledge grow,
As years and strength increase.
2 Sweet were his words and kind his look,
When mothers round him pressed;
Their infants in his arms he took,
And on his bosom blessed.
Safe from the world's alluring harms,
Beneath his watchful eye,
Thus in the circle of his arms
May we for ever lie.
3 When Jesus into Zion rode,
The children sang around;
For joy they plucked the palms and strowed
Their garments on the ground.
Hosanna our glad voices raise,
Hosanna to our King!
Should we forget our Savior's praise,
The stones themselves would sing. Topics: Jesus Christ; Palm/Passion Sunday Scripture: Matthew 21:1-11 Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

O Sing a Song of Bethlehem
Author: Louis F. Benson Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 64 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O sing a song of Bethlehem,
Of shepherds watching there,
And of the news that came to them
From angels in the air.
The light that shone on Bethlehem
Fills all the world today;
Of Jesus' birth and peace on earth
The angels sing alway.
2. O sing a song of Nazareth,
Of sunny days of joy,
O sing of fragrant flowers' breath,
And of the sinless Boy;
For now the flow'rs of Nazareth
In ev'ry heart may grow;
Now spreads the fame of His dear name
On all the winds that blow.
3. O sing a song of Galilee,
Of lake and woods and hil,
Of Him who walked upon the sea
And bade its waves be still;
For tho' like waves on Galilee,
Dark seas of trouble roll,
When faith has heard the Master's word,
Falls peace upon the soul.
4. O sing a song of Calvary,
Its glory and dismay;
Of Him who hung upon the tree
And took our sins away.
For He who died on Calvary
Is risen from the grave,
And Christ, our Lord, by heav'n adored,
Is mighty now to save. Scripture: Luke 2:11 Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

I Feel the Winds of God Today
Author: Jessie Adams Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I feel the winds of God today;
Today my sail I lift,
Though heavy, oft with drenching spray,
And torn with many a rift;
If hope but light the water’s crest,
And Christ my bark will use,
I’ll seek the seas at His behest,
And brave another cruise.
2 It is the wind of God that dries
My vain, regretful tears,
Until with braver thoughts shall rise
The purer, brighter years;
If cast on shores of selfish ease
Or pleasure I should be,
Lord, let me feel Thy freshening breeze,
And I’ll put back to sea.
3 If ever I forget Thy love
And how that love was shown,
Lift high the blood red flag above;
It bears Thy name alone.
Great Pilot of my onward way,
Thou wilt not let me drift;
I feel the winds of Go
Amen. Topics: Dedication of Life; Invitation to Consecration; Pilgrimage, Christian; Youth Hymns Scripture: Luke 5:4 Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

My God, I Love Thee
Author: Francis Xavier, 16th cent.; Edward Caswall Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 208 hymnals First Line: My God, I love Thee, not because Lyrics: 1 My God, I love Thee; not because
I hope for heav'n thereby,
nor yet for fear that loving not
I might forever die;
but for that Thou didst all mankind
upon the cross embrace;
for us didst bear the nails and spear,
and manifold disgrace;
2 And griefs and torments numberless,
and sweat of agony;
e'en death itself, and all for man,
who was Thine enemy.
Then why, most loving Jesus Christ,
should I not love Thee well?
Not for the sake of winning heav'n,
nor any fear of hell;
3 Not with the hope of gaining aught,
nor seeking a reward,
but as Thyself hast loved me,
O ever loving Lord!
E'en so I love Thee, and will love,
and in Thy praise will sing,
solely because Thou art my God
and my eternal King! Topics: Salvation Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

Come, Let Us Use the Grace Divine
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 153 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Come, let us use the grace divine,
and all with one accord,
in a perpetual covenant
join ourselves to Christ the Lord;
Give up ourselves, thru Jesus' power,
his name to glorify;
and promise, in this sacred hour,
for God to live and die.
2. The covenant we this moment make
be ever kept in mind;
we will no more our God forsake,
or cast these words behind.
We never will throw off the fear
of God who hears our vow;
and if thou art well pleased to hear,
come down and meet us now.
3. Thee, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
let all our hearts receive,
present with thy celestial host
the peaceful answer give;
to each covenant the blood apply
which takes our sins away,
and register our names on high
and keep us to that day!

To Mock Your Reign
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 14 hymnals First Line: To mock your reign, O dearest Lord Lyrics: 1 To mock your reign, O dearest Lord,
they made a crown of thorns;
set you with taunts along that road
from which no one returns.
They could not know, as we do now,
how glorious is that crown;
that thorns would flower upon your brow,
your sorrows heal our own.
2 In mock acclaim, O gracious Lord,
they snatched a purple cloak;
your passion turned, for all they cared,
into a soldier's joke.
They could not know, as we do now,
that though we merit blame,
you will your robe of mercy throw
around our naked shame.
3 A sceptered reed, O patient Lord,
they thrust into your hand,
and acted out their grim charade
to its appointed end.
They could not know, as we do now,
though empires rise and fall,
your kingdom shall not cease to grow
till love embraces all. Scripture: Matthew 27:27-41 Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

Your Hand, O Lord, in Days of Old
Author: Edward H. Plumptre, 1821-91 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 177 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Your hand, O Lord, in days of old
Was strong to heal and save;
It triumphed o'er disease and death,
All darkness and the grave.
To you they came, the blind, the dumb,
The paralyzed and lame,
The lepers in their misery,
The sick with fevered frame.
2 Your touch then, Lord, brought life and health,
Gave speech and strength and sight;
And youth renewed and frenzy calmed
Revealed you, Lord of light.
And now, O Lord, be near to bless,
Almighty as before,
In crowded street, by beds of pain,
As by Gennes'ret's shore.
3 Oh, be our great deliv'rer still,
The Lord of life and death;
Restore and quicken, soothe and bless,
With your life-giving breath.
To hands that work and eyes that see
Give wisdom's healing pow'r
That whole and sick and weak and strong
May praise you evermore. Topics: Social Concern; Social Concern Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

'Twas in the Watches of the Night
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 62 hymnals Lyrics: 1. ’Twas in the watches of the night
I thought upon Thy power,
I kept Thy lovely face in sight
amidst the darkest hour.
My flesh lay resting on my bed,
my soul arose on high:
My God, my life my hope, I said,
bring Thy salvation nigh.
2. My spirit labors up Thine hill,
and climbs the heav’nly road;
But Thy right hand upholds me still,
while I pursue my God.
Thy mercy stretches o’er my head
the shadow of Thy wings;
My heart rejoices in Thine aid,
my tongue awakes and sings.
3. But the destroyers of my peace
shall fret and rage in vain;
The tempter shall for ever cease,
and all my sins be slain.
Thy sword shall give my foes to death,
and send them down to dwell,
In the dark caverns of the earth,
or to the depths of hell. Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719

Thine is the health and Thine the wealth
That in our halls abound,

Breathe from the bounteous Heav’n.
Attemper fair with gentle air
The sunshine and the rain,
That kindly earth with timely birth
May yield her fruits again.
3. That we may feed the poor aright,
And gathering round Thy throne,

No Tramp of Soldiers' Marching Feet
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: No tramp of solders' marching feet Lyrics: 1 No tramp of soldiers’ marching feet
With banners and with drums,
No sound of music’s martial beat:
“The King of glory comes!”
To greet what pomp of kingly pride
No bells in triumph ring,
No city gates swing open wide:
“Behold, behold your King!”
2 And yet he comes. The children cheer;
With palms his path is strown.
With ev’ry step the cross draws near:
The King of glory’s throne.
Astride a colt he passes by
As loud hosannas ring,
Or else the very stones would cry:
“Behold, behold your King!”
3 What fading flow’rs his road adorn;
The palms, how soon laid down!
No bloom or leaf but only thorn
The King of glory’s crown.
The soldiers mock, the rabble cries,
The streets with tumult ring,
As Pilate to the mob replies:
“Behold, behold your King!”
4 Now he, who bore for mortals’ sake
The cross and all its pains
And chose a servant’s form to take,
The King of glory reigns.
Hosanna to the Savior’s Name
Till heaven’s rafters ring,
And all the ransomed host proclaim:
“Behold, behold your King!” Topics: Palm Sunday Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

Almighty God, Thy Word Is Cast
Author: J. Cawood, 1775-1852 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 222 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Almighty God, Thy Word is cast
Like seed into the ground;
Now let the dew of heaven descend
And righteous fruits abound.
Let not the foe of Christ and man
This holy seed remove,
But give it root in ev'ry heart
To bring forth fruits of love.
2 Let not the world's deceitful cares
The rising plant destroy,
But let it yield a hundredfold
The fruits of peace and joy.
Oft as the precious seed is sown,
Thy quick'ning grace bestow
That all whose souls the truth receive
Its saving pow'r may know.

Deep in the Shadows of the Past
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Deep in the shadows of the past,
far out from settled lands,
some nomads traveled with their God
across the desert sands.
The dawning hope of humankind
by them was sensed and shown;
a promise calling them ahead,
a future yet unknown.
2 While others bowed to changeless gods
they met a mystery,
invisible, without a name:
"I AM WHAT I WILL BE";
and by their tents, around their fires,
in story, song and law,
they praised, remembered, handed on
a past that promised more.
3 From Exodus to Pentecost
the promise changed and grew,
while some, remembering the past,
recorded what they knew,
or with their letters and laments,
their prophecy and praise
recovered, kindled and expressed
new hope for changing days.
4 For all the writings that survived,
for leaders, long ago,
who sifted, copied and preserved
the Bible that we know,
give thanks, and find its story yet
our promise, strength and call,
the model of emerging faith,
alive with hope for all. Topics: The Community of Faith The Book of the Church: Holy Scripture Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

and yours shall be, the Master said,

when death itself is dead,
the Lord shall raise us up at last,

In Every Place Where God Is Praised (Doquiera que se alabe a Dios)
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944; Gerardo Oberman, b. 1965 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: In ev'ry place where God is praised (Doquiera que se alabe a Dios) Lyrics: 1 In ev'ry place where God is praised
By many or by few;
In ev'ry heart where prayer breathes life
And hope begins anew;
Where ever searching leads to faith
Or love melts hearts of stone;
Where new life rises from death's hold:
God's presence will be known.
2 In worship we draw near to God
By list'ning for the Word
That weaves through scripture, sermon, song,
And lifts our hearts when heard.
Then to the holy table called,
We come with hands unfurled
To feast on gifts that help us be
Christ's body in the world.
3 Christ sends us to the world to live
As light and salt and yeast,
With willing hands to seek and serve
The last, the lost, the least.
To go where human needs are great,
Dreams fade and fears increase:
With pris'ner, patient, refugee,
To share the Spirit's peace.
4 That quiet peace surpasses all
Our striving seeks to gain
And helps us find in servanthood
A way made new and plain.
The God who brought us safe thus far,
Who bids us trust and dare,
Still goes before us through life's maze
And waits to meet us there.

Hymn to a Gracious Sovereign
Author: Neil Barham Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O God the deep immutable Lyrics: 1. O God the deep immutable,
the changeless, wise and still,
You’re the absolute, eternal One;
You wield the sovereign will.
Deep Heav’n itself and even time
must bend beneath your sway.
With a whispered thought you banish night
in a flash of blinding day.
2. The seas are boundaried by your word;
great mountains heed your call.
Majestic swirls of galaxies
adorn your royal hall.
The centuries are lumps of clay
shaped by your strength and skill.
You mold the long millennia to
the dictates of your will.
3. The boundless, black-robed skies proclaim
your vast, astonishing might:
Their flaming jewels rejoice for you
in silent shouts of light.
With sure and sovereign strokes your hands
finger the cosmic strings,
And play celestial symphonies
as all creation sings.
4. And silent now, the angels stare;
stunned seraphs blush, amazed;
Great Michael sheaths the sword that at
the Gate of Eden blazed.
Mighty Gabriel sets his trump aside,
and listens to his Lord,
As Love incomprehensible
enfleshes the Living Word.
5. Now space and time have cracked before
the size of this event:
The Godhead shudders as the
glorious Son to Hell is sent.
Though Very God of Very God,
He counts it all but loss,
And comes and suffers as a man,
from the manger to the Cross. Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

If Christ Had Not Been Raised from Death
Author: Christopher Idle, 1938- Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 If Christ had not been raised from death
our faith would be in vain,
our preaching but a waste of breath,
our sin and guilt remain.
But now the Lord is risen indeed;
he rules in earth and heaven:
his Gospel meets a world of need--
in Christ we are forgiven.
2 If Christ still lay within the tomb
then death would be the end,
and we should face our final doom
with neither guide nor friend.
But now the Saviour is raised up,
so when a Christian dies
we mourn, yet look to God in hope--
in Christ the saints arise!
3 If Christ had not been truly raised
his church would live a lie:
his name should never more be praised,
his words deserve to die.
But now our great Redeemer lives;
through him we are restored:
his word endures, his church revives
in Christ, our risen Lord. Scripture: Isaiah 29:16 Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

Make Room within My Heart, O God
Author: Bryan Jeffery Leech Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Make room within my heart, O God,
that you may form in me
the image you have shown in Christ,
my very life to be.
Inspire my thought, O lofty One,
to reach the highest plane,
that I may know the mind of Christ,
and him as greatest gain.
2 Direct my will, O King of kings,
subject it to your own,
that every impulse, action, word,
may make your kingdom known.
Effect my prayer, great Trinity,
eternal Three-in-One,
combine each part of me to praise
the Father, Spirit, Son. Topics: Commitment; Jesus Christ Example; Mind of Christ; Submission Scripture: Galatians 4:19 Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD
