If Thou but Suffer God to Guide Thee
Author: Georg Neumark, 1621-1681; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 190 hymnals Topics: Encouragement Lyrics: 1 If thou but suffer God to guide thee,
And hope in Him through all thy ways,
He'll give thee strength, whate'er betide thee,
And bear thee through the evil days;
Who trusts in God's unchanging love
Builds on the rock that nought can move.
2 Only be still, and wait His leisure
In cheerful hope, with heart content
To take whate'er thy Father's pleasure
And all-discerning love have sent;
Nor doubt our inmost wants are known
To Him who chose us for His own.
3 Sing, pray, and keep His ways unswerving;
So do thine own part faithfully,
And trust His word; though undeserving,
Thou yet shalt find it true for thee;
God never yet forsook at need
The soul that trusted Him indeed.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 55:22 Used With Tune: NEUMARK

God Is Our Refuge and Our Strength
Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: Comfort & Encouragement; Comfort & Encouragement Lyrics: 1 God is our refuge and our strength,
our ever-present aid,
and therefore, though the earth be moved,
we will not be afraid
though hills into the seas be cast,
though foaming waters roar,
though all the mighty billows shake
the mountains on the shore.
2 A river flows whose streams make glad
the city of our God,
the holy place wherein the LORD
Most High has his abode.
Since God is in the midst of her,
unmoved her walls shall stand;
for God will hasten to her aid
when trouble is at hand.
3 The nations rage, the kingdoms move,
but when his voice is heard,
earth melts with trembling fear before
the thunder of his word.
The LORD of hosts is on our side,
our safety to secure;
the God of Jacob is for us
a refuge strong and sure.
4 O come and see what wondrous works
the hand of God has done;
come, see what desolation great
he brings beneath the sun.
In every corner of the earth
he causes wars to cease;
the weapons of the strong destroyed,
he makes abiding peace.
5 "Be still and know that I am God,
the LORD whom all must claim;
and every nation of the earth
shall magnify my name."
The LORD of hosts is on our side,
our safety to secure;
the God of Jacob is for us
a refuge strong and sure.

Author: S. Baring-Gould Appears in 327 hymnals Topics: Encouragements; Encouragements First Line: Through the night of doubt and sorrow Lyrics: 1 Through the night of doubt and sorrow,
Onward goes the pilgrim band,
Singing songs of expectation,
Marching to the promised land.
Clear before us, through the darkness,
Gleams and burns the guiding light:
Brother clasps the hand of brother,
Stepping fearless through the night.
2 One the light of God's own presence,
O'er his ransomed people shed,
Chasing far the gloom and terror,
Brightening all the path we tread:
One the object of our journey,
One the faith which never tires,
One the earnest looking forward,
One the hope our God inspires.
3 One the strain the lips of thousands
Lifts as from the heart of one;
One the conflict, one the peril,
One the march in God begun:
One the gladness of rejoicing
On the far eternal shore,
Where the one Almighty Father,
Reigns in love for evermore. Used With Tune: BEECROFT

I Know Not What the Future Hath
Author: John G. Whittier, 1807-1892 Appears in 42 hymnals Topics: The Christian Way of Life Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 I know not what the future hath
Of marvel or surprise,
Assured alone that life and death
God's mercy underlies.
2 And if my heart and flesh are weak
To bear an untried pain,
The bruised reed He will not break
But strengthen and sustain.
3 And Thou, O Lord, by whom are seen
Thy creatures as they be,
Forgive me if too close I learn
My human heart on Thee.
4 And so beside the silent sea
I wait the muffled oar:
No harm from Him can come to me
On ocean or on shore.
5 I know not where His island lift
Their fronded palms in air;
I only know I cannot drift
Beyond His love and care.
Amen. Used With Tune: COOLING
