How Firm a Foundation
Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2,255 hymnals Topics: The Church at Worship Proclamation; Proclamation First Line: How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
is laid for your faith in His excellent word!
What more can He say than to you He has said,
to you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 "Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed,
for I am thy God, and will still give thee aid;
I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
the rivers of woe shall not thee overflow;
for I will be with thee, thy troubles to bless,
and sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
my grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply;
the flame shall not hurt thee, I only design
thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine.
5 "The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose
I will not, I will not desert to his foes;
that soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never, no, never, no never forsake!" Scripture: 2 Timothy 2:19 Used With Tune: FOUNDATION Text Sources: John Rippon's Selection of Hymns, 1787

"How Shall They Hear," Who Have Not Heard
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Proclamation Lyrics: 1 “How shall they hear,” who have not heard
News of a Lord who loved and came;
Nor known his reconciling word,
Nor learned to trust a Savior’s name?
2 “To all the world,” to ev’ry place,
Neighbors and friends and far-off lands,
Preach the good news of saving grace;
Go while the great commission stands.
3 “Whom shall I send?” Who hears the call,
Constant in prayer, through toil and pain,
Telling of One who died for all,
To bring a lost world home again?
4 “Lord, here am I": Your fire impart
To this poor cold self-centered soul;
Touch but my lips, my hands, my heart,
And make a world for Christ my goal.
5 Spirit of love, within us move:
Spirit of truth, in pow’r come down!
So shall they hear and find and prove
Christ is their life, their joy, their crown. Scripture: Isaiah 6:5-8 Used With Tune: ANGELUS (DU MEINER SEELEN)

God Is Unique And One
Author: Fred Kaan Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Proclamation Lyrics: 1 God is unique and one:
Maker, Sustainer, Lord!
Patterns of life were spun
by that creative word.
Of God's intention, love and care
we are with growing trust aware.
2 Love came to earth in Christ,
our common life to share,
choosing to be the least,
willing a cross to bear.
He died, he rose, that we might live
and all our love, responding, give.
3 The Holy Spirit moves
people to trace God's plan;
such inspiration proves
more than the mind can span.
Each listening heart is led to find
the will of God for humankind.
4 God shall forever reign,
ruler of time and space;
there, in the midst of life,
seen in the human face.
We give expression to our creed
by love in thought, in word and deed. Used With Tune: LITTLE CORNARD

Join all the glorious names
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 343 hymnals Topics: Proclamation: Witness Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names
of wisdom, love, and power,
that ever mortals knew,
that angels ever bore:
all are too mean to speak his worth,
too mean to set my Saviour forth.
2 But O what gentle terms,
what condescending ways
doth our Redeemer use
to teach his heavenly grace!
Mine eyes with joy and wonder see
what forms of love he bears for me.
3 Arrayed in mortal flesh,
he like an Angel stands,
and holds his promises
and pardons in his hands;
commissioned from his Father's throne
to make his grace to mortals known.
4 Great Prophet of my God,
my tongue would bless thy name;
by thee the joyful news
of our salvation came:
the joyful news of sins forgiven,
of hell subdued and peace with heaven.
5 Be thou my Counsellor,
my Pattern, and my Guide;
and through this desert land
still keep me near thy side:
O let my feet ne'er run astray,
nor rove, nor seek the crooked way.
6 I love my Shepherd's voice,
his watchful eyes shall keep
my wandering soul among
the thousands of his sheep:
he feeds his flock, he calls their names
his bosom bears the tender lambs.
7 To this dear Surety's hand
will I commit my cause;
he answers and fulfils
his Father's broken laws:
behold my soul at freedom set!
my Surety paid the dreadful debt.
8 Jesus my great High-Priest
offered his blood and died;
my guilty conscience seeks
no sacrifice beside:
his powerful blood did once atone
and now it pleads before the throne.
9 My Advocate appears
for my defence on high;
the Father bows his ear
and lays his thunder by:
not all that hell or sin can say
shall turn his heart, his love away.
10 My dear almighty Lord,
my Conqueror and my King,
thy sceptre and thy sword,
thy reigning grace I sing.
Thine is the power, behold I sit
in willing bonds before thy feet.
11 Now let my soul arise,
and tread the tempter down;
my Captain leads me forth
to conquest and a crown.
A feeble saint shall win the day,
though death and hell obstruct the way.
12 Should all the hosts of death,
and powers of hell unknown,
put their most dreadful forms
of rage and mischief on,
I shall be safe, for Christ displays
superior power, and guardian-grace.
Scripture: 1 John 2:1-2 Used With Tune: WARSAW
