Crull, 1846-1923 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord hath helped me hitherto By His surpassing favor; His mercies ev'ry morn were new, His kindness did not waver. God hitherto hath been my Guide, Hath pleasures hitherto supplied, And hitherto hath helped me. 2 I praise and thank Thee, Lord, my God, For Thine abundant blessing Which heretofore Thou hast bestowed And I am still possessing. Inscribe this on my memory: The Lord hath done great things for me And graciously hath helped me. 3 Help me henceforth, O God of grace, Help me on each occasion, Help me in each and ev'ry place, Help me through Jesus' Passion; Help me in life and death, O God, Help me through Jesus' dying blood; Help me as Thou hast helped me.

By thee we live — by all thou givest and shalt give our loyalty commanding. 2 Heroes of faith in every age, far-seeing, self-denying, wrought an increasing heritage, monarch and creed defying. Faith of the free! In thy dear name the costly heritage we claim: their living and their dying. 3 Faith for the people everywhere, whatever their oppression, of all who make the world more fair, living their faith’s confession: faith of the free! Whate’er our plight, thy law, thy liberty, thy light shall be our blest possession.

O Holy Ghost, Thou gift divine

Author: B. Ringwaldt; S. Jonasson Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Holy Ghost, Thou gift divine, And giver of all blessing, Thou, with the Father and the Son, True Godhead art possessing, And from them both art shed abroad, Eternal Spirit, Lord and God, In Thee all Christians glory. 2 O Spirit blest, we Thee entreat: O grant us that we ever, With heart and soul, as it is meet, May serve our Lord and Savior And Him confess till our last breath, As Lord of life and Lord of death And give Him praise and honor. 3 Our hearts let new-created be, Our walk make pure and holy. Help us offense and sin to flee, And ever serve God solely, So that our faith in Christ, our Lord, May prove itself in deed and word Before the world about us. 4 Thy gracious heavenly dew let fall, The fainting Church to quicken; Thy soothing ointment pour on all Whose souls are sad and stricken; Sustain us, Lord, in evil days, And let our lives in all our ways Abound in love and mercy. 5 Give strength and courage to contend Against the hosts of evil, That we may vanquish, in the end, The world, the flesh, the devil; And when death's billow o'er us rolls, Bear Thou to heaven our ransomed souls, While dust to dust returneth.

I place myself in Jesus' hands

Author: C. J. P. Spitta Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I place myself in Jesus' hands, And there abide for ever; No griefs, no joys, shall loose the bands, Nor our sweet union sever; In those dread days When earth decays, Who stays on Him, and whom He stays, Shall be preserved for ever. 2 A rock and castle is the Lord, And they shall see and wonder Who build on His almighty word, And thereon deeply ponder; And what He saith, In life and death, My heart shall trust with steadfast faith, Though earth be rent asunder. 3 Let Him do with me what He will, He cannot fail to please me, I cleave to Him with strong faith still, And hope that He will bless me: He must be blest Who loves Him best, And on His word doth firmly rest; Lord, with this truth impress me. 4 When things are at their worst, I will Still joy in His protection, Who loves to bring out good from ill, And grieves in my affliction: His trials sent Are all well meant, His blows a Father's chastisement, And tokens of affection. 5 My confidence unshaken stands Upon His blessed promise, That none shall pluck us from His hands, Nor any foe o'ercome us. He will not break The word He spake, He will not leave us, nor forsake, Nor take His Spirit from us.
