Author: Harry E. Fosdick, 1878-1969 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 161 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God of grace and God of glory, On your people pour your pow'r; Crown your ancient church’s story; Bring its bud to glorious flow'r. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage For the facing of this hour, For the facing of this hour. 2 Lo! the hosts of evil round us Scorn the Christ, assail his ways! From the fears that long have bound us Free our hearts to faith and praise. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage For the living of these days, For the living of these days. 3 Cure your children’s warring madness; Bend our pride to your control; Shame our wanton, selfish gladness, Rich in things and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage Lest we miss your kingdom’s goal, Lest we miss your kingdom’s goal. 4 Save us from weak resignation To the evils we deplore; Let the gift of your salvation Be our glory evermore. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, Serving you whom we adore, Serving you whom we adore. Topics: Service; Society Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA

Unto my Lord Jehovah said

Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Unto my Lord Jehovah said, "At my right hand I throne thee, Till at thy feet, in triumph laid, Thy foes their ruler own thee." From Zion shall Jehovah send Thy scepter, till before thee bend The knees of proud rebellion. 2 Thy saints, to greet thy day of might, In holy raiment muster; As dewdrops in the morning light Thy youths around thee cluster. Jehovah sware and made decree, "Thou, King of Righteousness, shalt be A royal Priest for ever." 3 The Lord at thy right hand shall bring On rulers desolation; The Lord shall smite each heathen king, And judge each rebel nation. He, swiftly marching in his wrath, Shall quaff the brook upon his path, And lift his head in glory. Amen.

Out of the Depths (Psalm 130)

Author: Martin Luther Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Out of the depths I cry to you Lyrics: 1 Out of the depths I cry to you; O Lord God, hear me calling. Incline your ear to my distress in spite of my rebelling. Do not regard my sinful deeds. Send me the grace my spirit needs; without it I am nothing. 2 All things you send are full of grace; you crown our lives with favor. All our good works are done in vain without our Lord and Savior. We praise you for the gift of faith; you save us from the grip of death; our lives are in your keeping. 3 In you alone, O God, we hope, and not in our own merit. We rest our fears in your good word; uphold our fainting spirit. Your promised mercy is my fort, my comfort, and my strong support; I wait for it with patience. 4 My soul is waiting for you, Lord, as one who longs for morning; no watcher waits with greater hope than I for your returning. I hope as Israel in the Lord, who sends redemption through the Word. Praise God for grace and mercy!

The Lord my faithful shepherd is

Author: A. C. Arrebo Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord my faithful shepherd is, And me He safely guideth, I shall not want, for I am His Who all things good provideth: I follow Him, I hear His voice, In Him my Lord I do rejoice: Blest am I in His keeping! 2 A tender shepherd leads his sheep, Where pastures green are growing, And there His flock doth guard and keep, Beside still waters flowing, Thus Christ, my shepherd, leadeth me, My soul and body feedeth He, And for their wants provideth. 3 And if I ever go astray, My wayward soul He turneth, To save the lost, to guide the way, For this He ever yearneth; He leadeth me, my soul to bless In His own path of righteousness For His name's sake and glory. 4 Why should I ever fear, O Lord, Whilst Thee I have beside me? Thou by Thy Spirit and Thy word Dost comfort and dost guide me; In death's dark vale I'll fear no ill, For Thou, O Lord, art with me still, Thy rod and staff shall stay me. 5 Thou art my host; for me, Thy guest, A table Thou providest. Though foes be near, I am at rest, Thou still with me abidest. With oil anointest Thou my head; On me Thy blessing rich is shed, My cup with bliss o'erfloweth. 6 Thy goodness and Thy mercy, Lord, Shall follow me, attending The days Thou dost to me afford, Until they reach their ending: Thereafter shall I in Thy love Dwell in Thy house in heaven above Forever and forever.
