Awake, My Soul, and with the Sun
Author: Thomas Ken, 1637-1711 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 890 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:31 Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, and with the sun
Thy daily stage of duty run;
Shake off dull sloth and joyful rise
To pay thy morning sacrifice.
2 In conversation be sincere,
Thy conscience as the noon-day clear;
Think how the all-seeing God thy ways
And all thy secret thoughts surveys.
3 All praise to Thee, who safe hast kept
And hast refreshed me while I slept;
Grant, Lord, when I from death shall wake,
I may of endless light partake.
4 Lord, I my vows to Thee renew;
Disperse my sins as morning dew;
Guard my first springs of thought and will
And with Thyself my spirit fill.
5 Direct, control, suggest this day
All I design or do or say
That all my pow'rs with all their might
In Thy sole glory may unite.
6 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heav'nly host:
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Awake, My Soul, and with the Sun
New every morning is the love
Author: John Keble (1792-1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 362 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:31 Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love
our wakening and uprising prove,
through sleep and darkness safely brought,
restored to life, and power, and thought.
2 New mercies, each returning day,
hover around us while we pray, --
new perils past, new sins forgiven,
new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.
3 If, on our daily course, our mind
be set to hallow all we find,
new treasures still, of countless price,
God will provide for sacrifice.
4 The trivial round, the common task,
will furnish all we ought to ask, --
room to deny ourselves, a road
to bring us daily nearer God.
5 Prepare us, Lord, in your dear love,
for perfect life with you above;
and help us, this and every day,
to live more nearly as we pray. Topics: The Living God Our Response to God - in the morning and evening; God in daily living; Prayer Used With Tune: TRURO

Hymn 126
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:32 First Line: Not diff'rent food, or diff'rent dress Lyrics:
Not diff'rent food, or diff'rent dress,
Compose the kingdom of our Lord;
But peace, and joy, and righteousness,
Faith, and obedience to his word.
When weaker Christians we despise,
We do the gospel mighty wrong;
For God, the gracious and the wise,
Receives the feeble with the strong.
Let pride and wrath be banished hence;
Meekness and love our souls pursue;
Nor shall our practice give offence
To saints, the Gentile or the Jew.
Hymn 126
Abide with Me
Author: Henry F. Lyte, 1793-1847 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1,673 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:13 First Line: Abide with me, fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me, fast falls the eventide.
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 I need Thy presence ev'ry passing hour;
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's pow'r?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.
3 Come not in terrors, as the King of kings,
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings;
Tears for all woes, a heart for ev'ry plea.
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.
4 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.
5 I fear no foe with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still if Thou abide with me!
6 Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies.
Heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

O Jesus, I Have Promised
Author: John E. Bode Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 621 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:13 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
To serve Thee to the end;
Be Thou forever near me,
My Master and my Friend;
I shall not fear the battle
If Thou art by my side,
Nor wander from the pathway
If Thou wilt be my Guide.
2 O let me feel Thee near me,
The world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
The tempting sounds I hear;
My foes are ever near me,
Around me and within;
But, Jesus, draw Thou nearer,
And shield my soul from sin.
3 O let me hear Thee speaking
In accents clear and still,
Above the storms of passion,
The murmurs of self-will;
O speak to reassure me,
To hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
Thou Guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, Thou has promised
To all who follow Thee
That where Thou art in glory
There shall Thy servant be;
And, Jesus, I have promised
To serve Thee to the end;
O give me grace to follow,
My Master and my Friend!

According to Thy Gracious Word
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 549 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:16 Lyrics: 1 According to thy gracious word,
In meek humility,
This will I do, my dying Lord,
I will remember Thee.
2 Thy body, broken for my sake,
My bread from heav'n shall be;
Thy testamental cup I take,
And thus remember Thee.
3 Remember Thee, and all Thy pains,
And all Thy love to me:
Yea, wile a breath, a pulse remains,
Will I remember Thee.
4 And when these failing lips grow dumb,
And mind and memory flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come,
Jesus, remember me.

In the Hour of Trial
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 487 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:13 Lyrics: 1 In the hour of trial,
Jesus, plead for me,
Lest, by base denial,
I depart from Thee;
When Thou seest me waver,
With a look recall;
Nor for fear or favor
Suffer me to fall.
2 With forbidden pleasures
Would this vain world charm,
Or its sordid treasures
Spread to work me harm;
Bring to my remembrance
Sad Gethsemane,
Or, in darker semblance,
Rugged Calvary.
3 Should Thy mercy send me
Sorrow, toil, and woe;
Or should pain attend me
On my path below;
Grant that I may never
Fail Thy hand to see;
Grant that I may ever
Cast my care on Thee.
Amen. Topics: Christ Advocate Used With Tune: PENITENCE

All the Way My Savior Leads Me
Author: Fanny Crosby Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 317 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:4 Lyrics: 1 All the way my Savior leads me;
what have I to fear beside?
Can I doubt his tender mercy,
who through life has been my guide?
Heav'nly peace, divinest comfort,
here by faith in him to dwell,
for I know, whate’er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well.
2 All the way my Savior leads me,
cheers the winding path I tread,
gives me grace for ev'ry trial,
feeds me with the living Bread.
Though my weary steps may falter,
and my soul athirst may be,
gushing from the Rock before me,
lo! a spring of joy I see.
3 All the way my Savior leads me;
O the fullness of his love!
Perfect rest to me is promised
in my Father’s house above.
When my spirit, clothed, immortal,
wings its flight to endless day,
this my song through endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way.

Teach me, my God and King
Author: George Herbert Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 263 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:31 Lyrics: 1 Teach me, my God and King,
In all things thee to see,
And what I do in anything,
To do it as for thee.
2 A man that looks on glass,
On it may stay his eye,
Or, if he pleaseth, through it pass,
And then the heav'n espy.
3 All may of thee partake:
Nothing can be so mean
Which with this motive, "For thy sake,"
Will not grow bright and clean.
4 This is the famous stone
That turneth all to gold;
For that which God doth touch and own
Cannot for less be told.
Amen. Topics: Christian Life Love for God; Christian Service; Common Duties and Things Used With Tune: RHIW
