God of Gods, We Sound His Praises
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.8.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God of gods, we sound his praises,
highest heav'n its homage brings;
earth and all creation raises
glory to the King of kings.
Holy, holy, holy, name him,
Lord of all his hosts proclaim him,
to the everlasting Father
every tongue in triumph sings.
2 Christians in their hearts enthrone him,
tell his praises wide abroad;
prophets, priests, apostles own him
martyrs' crown and saints' reward.
Three-in-one his glory sharing,
earth and heav'n his praise declaring,
praise the high majestic Father,
praise the everlasting Lord.
3 Hail the Christ, the King of glory,
he whose praise the angels cry,
born to share our human story,
love and labor, grieve and die.
By his cross his work completed,
sinners ransomed, death defeated,
in the glory of the Father
Christ ascended reigns on high.
4 Lord, we look for your returning,
teach us so to walk your ways,
hearts and minds your will discerning,
lives alight with joy and praise.
In your love and care enfold us,
by your constancy uphold us,
may your mercy, Lord and Father,
keep us now and all our days.

Can You Count the Stars
Author: Johann W. Hey; S. P. V. Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.8.7 Appears in 37 hymnals First Line: Can you count the stars that brightly Lyrics: 1 Can you count the stars that brightly
Twinkle in the midnight sky?
Can you count the clouds so lightly
O’er the meadows floating by?
God, the Lord, doth mark their number,
With his eyes that never slumber;
He hath made them every one.
2 Do you know how many children
Rise each morning blithe and gay?
Can you count their jolly voices,
Singing sweetly day by day?
God hears all the happy voices,
In their pretty songs rejoices;
And He loves them, every one.

Now Before Thee, Lord, We Gather
Author: Karolina W. Sandell-Berg; Andrew L. Skoog, 1856-1934 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.8.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Now before Thee, Lord, we gather
To receive Thy precious Word;
Let Thy grace in showers, O Father,
On our parchèd hearts be poured.
Send Thy Holy Spirit o’er us,
With Thy quick’ning fire restore us,
At Thy table spread before us
Fill our hung’ring souls, dear Lord.
2. May Thy Word, to us now given,
Be retained in hearts contrite;
On the narrow way to Heaven
Lead us in Thy perfect light.
Hush, within us, all commotion,
Silence each disturbing notion;
May we, Lord, with true devotion
Use this hour of grace aright.
3. Of the time may we avail us,
When to seek us Thou art near;
Soon the day of grace may fail us,
And no message more we hear.
Turn our minds to meditation
On our need of Thy salvation;
Urge on all Thine invitation—
To our prayer incline Thine ear. Used With Tune: MONTCLAIR

And now I plead yet once again,
Follow Me, come, follow Me.

Thy bliss through all eternity,
Follow Me, come, follow Me.

Follow Me, come, follow Me!
Thy heavy load My arm upbears,
Follow Me, come, follow Me.
Lean on My breast, dismiss thy fears,
And trust Me through the future years,
My hand shall wipe away Thy tears,
Follow Me, come, follow Me."
5 Dear Lord, I yield to all Thy will,
I’ll follow Thee, yes, follow Thee;
O! bid my struggling soul be still,
I’ll follow Thee, yes, follow Thee.
Come cleanse, and with Thy Spirit fill,
And keep me safe from every ill,
And all Thy Word in me fulfill,
I’ll follow Thee, yes, follow Thee. Used With Tune: IVANKOVIC
