O God, My Faithful God
Author: Johann Heermann; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #523 (2018) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Tune Title: DARMSTADT Scripture: Matthew 16:24 Lyrics: 1 O God, my faithful God,
true fountain ever flowing,
without whom nothing is,
all perfect gifts bestowing:
give me a healthy frame,
and may I have within
a conscience free from blame,
a soul unstained by sin.
2 Give me the strength to do
with ready heart and willing,
whatever you command,
my calling here fulfilling--
to do it when I ought,
with all my strength; and bless
whatever I have wrought,
for you must give success.
3 Keep me from saying words
that later need recalling;
guard me, lest idle speech
may from my lips be falling:
but when, within my place,
I must and ought to speak,
then to my words give grace,
lest I offend the weak.
4 When dangers gather round,
oh, keep me calm and fearless;
help me to bear the cross
when life seems dark and cheerless;
help me, as you have taught,
to love both great and small,
and, by your Spirit's might,
to live at peace with all. Topics: Christian Life; Courage; God Faithfulness of; Pilgrimage and Guidance; Supplications For Sanctification Languages: English

They Did Not Build in Vain
Author: Alan Luff, 1928- Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #542 (2003) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Tune Title: DARWALL'S 148th Scripture: Matthew 16:18 Lyrics: 1 They did not build in vain
who founded here a church
as witness to God's love
amid a world of pain,
for still, to those who wish to see,
this place proclaims God's mystery.
2 They built upon the rock
that is the risen Lord,
the one foundation laid
which stands each earthly shock;
that, Spirit filled, we here might raise,
as living temples, prayer and praise.
3 Those who have loved this place,
a cloud of witnesses,
surround and urge us on
as we now run our race,
and so we lay aside each sin
in our desire to strive and win.
4 Though the horizon's bend
conceals the way ahead,
the footprints on the road
show Christ waits at the end;
in him alone our faith shall stand
who waits for us at God's right hand.
5 Here is our meeting place,
where doubt finds grounds of faith,
where hurt finds healing love,
our penitence your grace;
where bridging time to eternity
is God the holy Trinity. Languages: English

Lo, round the throne, a glorious band
Author: Rowland Hill, 1744-1833 Hymnal: Common Praise #223 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Scripture: Matthew 16:13 Lyrics: 1 Lo, round the throne, a glorious band,
the saints in countless myriads stand,
of every tongue redeemed to God,
arrayed in garments washed in blood.
2 Through tribulation great they came;
they bore the cross, despised the shame;
from all their labours now they rest,
in God's eternal glory blest.
3 They see their Saviour face to face,
and sing the triumphs of his grace;
him day and night they ceaseless praise,
to him the loud thanksgiving raise:
4 'Worthy the Lamb, for sinners slain,
through endless years to live and reign;
thou hast redeemed us by thy blood,
and made us kings and priests to God.'
5 O may we tread the sacred road
that saints and holy martyrs trod;
wage to the end the glorious strife,
and win, like them, a crown of life.

"Take Up Your Cross," the Savior Said
Author: Charles W. Everest, 1814-1877 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #351 (2003) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: DISTRESS Scripture: Matthew 16:24-25 Lyrics: 1 “Take up your cross,” the Savior said,
“if you would my disciple be;
deny yourself, the world forsake,
and humbly follow after me.”
2 Take up your cross, let not its weight
fill your weak spirit with alarm;
his strength shall bear your spirit up,
and nerve your heart, and brace your arm.
3 Take up your cross, heed not the shame,
nor let your foolish pride rebel;
your Lord for you the cross endured,
and fought the powers of death and hell.
4 Take up your cross, and follow Christ,
nor think till death to lay it down;
for only they who bear the cross
may hope to wear the glorious crown. Languages: English
