O Jesus, I Have Promised

Bode Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #603 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Ordination Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised to serve you to the end; be now and ever near me, my master and my friend.

My foes are ever near me, around me and within; but, Jesus, draw still nearer and shield my soul from sin! 3 O let me hear you speaking in accents clear and still, above the storms of passion, the murmurs of self-will. O speak to reassure me, to hasten or control; and speak to make me listen, O guardian of my soul. 4 O Jesus, you have promised to all who follow you that where you are in glory your servants shall be too. And, Jesus, I have promised to serve you to the end; O give me grace to follow, my master and my friend. Scripture: Joshua 24:15-16 Languages: English Tune Title: ANGEL'S STORY

Up from death’s dark vale arise Voices of a world in grief, Prayers of men who seek relief: Now our darkness pierce again, "Peace on earth, peace on earth, goodwill, goodwill to men." 3 Light of light, we humbly pray, Shine upon your world today; Break the gloom of our dark night, Fill our souls with love and light, Send your blessed word again, "Peace on earth, peace on earth, goodwill, goodwill to men." Amen. Scripture: Romans 13:12 Tune Title: PITTSBURGH
