Grow in the grace and in the knowledge of our Lord
Hymnal: Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal #920 (1985) Scripture: 2 Peter 3:18 Topics: Benedictions
Grow in the grace and in the knowledge of our Lord
God's Welcome
Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: Laudes Domini #176 (1888) Scripture: 2 Peter 3:9 First Line: There's a wideness in God's mercy Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy,
Like the wideness of the sea;
There's a kindness in his justice,
Which is more than liberty.
There is welcome for the sinner,
And more graces for the good;
There is mercy with the Saviour;
There is healing in his blood.
2 There is no place where earth's sorrows
Are more felt than up in heaven;
There is no place where earth's failings
Have such kindly judgment given.
There is plentiful redemption
In the blood that has been shed;
There is joy for all the members
In the sorrows of the Head.
3 For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of man's mind;
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
If our love were but more simple,
We should take him at his word;
And our lives would be all sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord. Topics: Access to God; God: The Father Languages: English Tune Title: ERIE

Give to our God immortal praise
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Together in Song #84 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: 2 Peter 3:18 Lyrics: 1 Give to our God immortal praise,
mercy and truth are all his ways:
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.
2 Give to the Lord of lords renown,
the King of kings with glory crown:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when lords and kings are known no more.
3 He built the earth, he spread the sky,
and fixed the starry lights on high;
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.
4 He fills the sun with morning light,
he bids the moon direct the night:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when suns and moons shall shine no more.
5 He sent his Son with power to save
from guilt, and darkness, and the grave:
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.
6 Through this vain world he guides our feet,
and leads us to his heavenly seat:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when this vain world shall be no more.

On thee for daily food;

And fills their mouth with good.

How slow thine anger moves!
But soon he sends his pardoning word
To cheer the souls he loves. Topics: God: The Father Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL

Glory be to God the Father
God is working his purpose out, as year succeeds to year
Author: Arthur C. Ainger, 1841-1919 Hymnal: Common Praise #444 (2000) Meter: Irregular Scripture: 2 Peter 3:12 Lyrics: 1 God is working his purpose out, as year succeeds to year,
God is working his purpose out, and the time is drawing near;
nearer and nearer draws the time, the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
2 From utmost east to utmost west, wherever feet have trod,
by the mouth of many messengers goes forth the voice of God,
'Give ear to me, ye continents, ye isles, give ear to me,
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.'
3 What can we do to work God's work, to prosper and increase
the love of God in all mankind, the reign of the Prince of peace?
What can we do to hasten the time, the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea?
4 March we forth in the strength of God, with the banner of Christ unfurled,
that the light of the glorious gospel of truth may shine throughout the world;
fight we the fight with sorrow and sin, to set their captives free,
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
5 All we can do is nothing worth unless God blesses the deed;
vainly we hope for the harvest-tide till God gives life to the seed;
yet nearer and nearer draws the time, the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea. Topics: Advent III Year B; New Year Languages: English Tune Title: BENSON

Our voices in singing thy praise.

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

To intercede for me.

Thy blood for our ransom so freely was giv’n;
With pleasure thou listened when children adored,
In joyful hosannas the Lord. [Refrain]

Still love to encircle the lambs of the fold;
That grace which inviteth the wanderer home,
Will never forbid us to come. [Refrain] Tune Title: [We gather, we gather, dear Jesus to bring]

God Has Spoken by the Prophets
Author: George W. Briggs, 1875-1959 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #667 (2003) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: 2 Peter 3:9 Lyrics: 1 God has spoken by the prophets,
spoken the unchanging Word,
each from age to age proclaiming
God, the one, the righteous Lord!
'Mid the world's despair and turmoil
one firm anchor holding fast:
God eternal reigns forever,
God the first and God the last.
2 God has spoken by Christ Jesus,
Christ, the everlasting Son,
brightness of the Father's glory,
with the Father ever one;
spoken by the Word incarnate,
God of God, ere time was born;
Light of light, to earth descending,
Christ, as God in human form.
3 God is speaking by the Spirit,
speaking to our hearts again;
in the age-long Word declaring
God's own message, now as then.
Through the rise and fall of nations
one sure faith yet standing fast:
God abides, the Word unchanging,
God the first and God the last.
