The great Apostle gave command
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Acts 6:2-7 Lyrics: 1 The great Apostle gave command,
Let ev'ry Church in order stand;
Good regulations must be made,
And be by all the Church obey'd.
2 To answer that, so good effect,
Saint Paul himself thus did direct:
To order Deacons ev'ry where,
Who should that sacred office bear.
3 Let such who act the faithful part,
And have the cause of Christ at heart,
And such as are of good repute,
That needful office execute.
4 Is it their aim in all they do,
To raise the Saviour's Church below!
Their faithful labours will be blest,
And Jesus' kingdom be increas'd.
5 Dear Lord be with thy spirit near,
While we ordain these brethren here;
May zeal and knowledge, love and grace,
Prepare and fit them for that place.
6 Be thou their counsel when they need,
Their conduct bless, their labours speed;
O may they be of greatest worth,
To aid and build thy church on earth. Topics: Ordering Church Wardens &c.

and wait for you, sweet hour of prayer.

your wings shall my petition bear
to him whose truth and faithfulness
engage the waiting soul to bless.
And since he bids me seek his face,
believe his Word, and trust his grace,

and wait for you, sweet hour of prayer. Used With Tune: SWEET HOUR
