O God, Thou faithful God

Author: J. Heermann Hymnal: Hymns of the Evangelical Lutheran Church #28 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O God, Thou faithful God, Thou Fount that ever flowest, Without whom nothing is, who all good gifts bestowest; A pure and healthy frame O give me, and within a conscience free from blame, a soul unhurt by sin. 2 And grant me, Lord, to do, With ready heart and willing, Whate'er Thou shalt command, My calling here fulfilling; To do it when I ought, With all my strength; and bless The work I thus have wrought, For Thou must give success. 3 O let me never speak What bounds of truth exceedeth; Grant that no idle word From out my mouth proceedeth; And grant, when in my place I must and ought to speak, My words due power and grace, Nor let me wound the weak. 4 If dangers gather round, Still keep me calm and fearless; Help me to bear the cross, When life is dark and cheerless; Let me subdue my foe By words and actions kind; When counsel I would know, Good counsel let me find. 5 And let me be with all In peace and friendship living, As far as Christians may; And if Thou aught art giving Of wealth and honors fair, O this refuse me not, That naught be mingled there Of goods unjustly got. 6 And if a longer life Be here on earth decreed me, And Thou through many a strife To ripe old age wilt lead me, Thy patience in me shed, Avert all sin and shame, And crown my hoary head With pure untarnished fame. 7 Let me depart this life Confiding in my Saviour; Do Thou my soul receive, That it may live forever; And let my body have A quiet resting-place Beside a Christian's grave, And let it sleep in peace. 8 And on that solemn day, When all the dead are waking, Stretch o'er my grave Thy hand, Thyself my slumbers breaking; Then let me hear Thy voice, And change this earthly frame, And bid me aye rejoice With those who love Thy name.

Author: J. Heermann Hymnal: Chorale Book for England, The #115 (1863) Lyrics: O God, Thou faithful God, Thou Fountain ever flowing, Without whom nothing is, All perfect gifts bestowing; A pure and healthy fram O give me, and within A conscience free from blame, A soul unhurt by sin. And grant me, Lord, to do, With ready heart and willing, Whate'er Thou shalt command, My calling here fulfilling, And do it when I ought, With all my strength, and bless The work I thus have wrought, For Thou must give success. And let me promise nought But I can keep it truly, Abstain from idle words, And guard my lips still duly; And grant, when in my place I must and ought to speak, My words due power and grace, Nor let me wound the weak. If dangers gather round, Still keep me calm and fearless; Help me to bear the cross When life is dark and cheerless; To overcome my foe With words and actions kind; When counsel I would know, Good counsel let me find. And let me be with all In peace and friendship living, As far as Christians may. And if Thou aught art giving Of wealth and honours fair, Oh this refuse me not, That nought be mingled there Of goods unjustly got. And if a longer life Be here on earth decreed me, And Thou through many a strife To age at last wilt lead me, Thy patience in me shed, Avert all sin and shame, And crown my hoary head With pure untarnish'd fame. Let nothing that may chance, Me from my Saviour sever; And dying with Him, take My soul to Thee for ever; And let my body have A little apace to sleep Beside my fathers' grave, And friends that o'er it weep. And when the Day is come, And all the dead are waking, Oh reach me down Thy hand, Thyself my slumbers breaking; Then let me hear Thy voices And change this earthly frame, And bid me aye rejoice With those who love Thy name.
