Lord of the Church
Author: E. Osler, 1798-1863 Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 58 hymnals Topics: Trinity 19 First Line: Lord of the Church, we humbly pray Lyrics: 1 Lord of the Church, we humbly pray
For those who guide us in Thy way
And speak Thy holy Word.
With love divine their hearts inspire,
And touch their lips with hallowed fire,
And needful strength afford.
2 Help them to preach the Truth of God,
Redemption through the Savior's blood;
Nor let the Spirit cease
On all the Church His gifts to show'r;
To them a messenger of pow'r,
To us, of life and peace.
3 So may they live to Thee alone:
Then hear the welcome word, "Well done!"
And take their crown above:
Enter into their Master's joy,
And all eternity employ
In praise and bliss and love.

O Lord, Who in Thy Love Divine
Author: C. Wordsworth, 1807-85 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Trinity 19 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, Who in Thy love divine
Didst safely leave the ninety-nine,
In pity for a world undone,
And gav'st Thy life to save the one,
And didst it on Thy shoulders bear
In joy to heav'n, receive our prayer.
2 Thou who the night in pray'r didst spend
And then Thy Twelve Apostles send;
And bidd'st us pray the harvest's Lord
To send forth sowers of the Word,
Hear us and these Thy servants bless
With sev'nfold gifts of holiness.
3 Look down, with gracious eye behold,
With watchful care protect Thy fold;
Secure from hireling shepherds keep,
Which feed themselves, and not the sheep,
And when the prowling wolf is nigh,
Forsake the flock in fear and fly.
4 O Thou, who didst at Pentecost
Send down from heav'n the Holy Ghost
That He might with Thy Church abide
Forever to defend and guide,
Illuminate and strengthen, Lord,
The preachers of Thy holy Word.
5 May all Thy pastors faithful be;
Not lab'ring for themselves, but Thee;
And may they feed with wholesome food
The sheep and lambs bought by Thy blood;
Tending Thy flock, O may they prove
How dearly they the Shepherd love!
6 That which the Holy Scriptures teach,
That, and that only, may they preach;
May they the true foundation lay,
Build gold thereon, not wood or hay;
And meekly preach in days of strife
The sermon of a holy life.
7 As ever in Thy holy eyes,
And stewards of Thy mysteries,
May they the people teach to see
Not, Lord, Thy ministers, but Thee;
To see a loving Savior's face
Revealed in all the means of grace.
8 May they Thy Word with boldness speak
And bear with tenderness the weak;
Not seeking their own things as best,
But what may edify the rest;
With wisdom and simplicity
And, most of all, with charity.
9 O may Thy people faithful be,
And in Thy pastors honor Thee,
And working with them for them pray,
And gladly Thee in them obey;
Receive the prophet of the Lord
And gain the prophet's own reward.
10 So may we, when our work is done,
Together stand before the throne;
And joyful hearts and voices raise,
In one united song of praise,
With all the bright celestial host,
To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

O Lord, Who in Thy Love Divine
Praise the Almighty; My Soul, Adore Him

Yea, I will laud Him until death.
With songs and anthems I'll come before Him
As long as He doth give me breath.
From Him my life and all things came;
Bless, O my soul, His holy name.
Allelujah, allelujah!
2 Trust not in princes, they are but mortal;
Earth-born they are and soon decay.
Naught are their counsels at life's last portal,
When the dark grave doth claim its prey.
Since mortals can no help afford,
Trust ye in Christ, our God and Lord.
Allelujah, allelujah!
3 Blessed, yea, blessed is he forever
Whose help is in the Lord most high,
Whom from the saving faith naught can sever,
And who in hope to Christ draws nigh.
To all who trust in Him, our Lord,
Counsel and aid He doth afford.
Allelujah, allelujah!
4 God the Almighty, the great Creator,
Ruler of sky and land and sea,
All things ordained, and sooner or later
They come to pass unfailingly.
His rule is over rich and poor,
His promise ever standeth sure.
Allelujah, allelujah!
5 Penitent sinners, for mercy crying,
Pardon and peace from Him obtain;
Ever the wants of the poor supplying,
Their faithful God He doth remain.
He helps His children in distress,
The widows and the fatherless.
Allelujah, allelujah!
6 Praise, all you nations, the name so holy
Of Him who doth such wondrous things!
All that hath being, to praise Him solely,
With happy heart its Amen sings!
Children of God, with angel host
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!
Allelujah, allelujah!

I Know My Faith Is Founded
Author: E. Neumeister, 1671-1756 Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Trinity 19 Lyrics: 1 I know my faith is founded
On Jesus Christ, my God and Lord;
And this my faith confessing
Unmoved I stand upon His Word.
Man's reason cannot fathom
The truth of God profound;
Who trusts her subtle wisdom
Relies on shifting ground.
God's Word is all-sufficient,
It makes divinely sure,
And trusting in its wisdom,
My faith shall rest secure.
2 Increase my faith, dear Savior,
For Satan seeks by night and day
To rob me of this treasure
And take my hope of bliss away.
But, Lord, with Thee beside me,
I shall be undismayed;
And led by Thy good Spirit,
I shall be unafraid.
Abide with me, O Savior,
A firmer faith bestow.
Then I shall bid defiance
To ev'ry evil foe.
3 In faith, Lord, let me serve Thee;
Though persecution, grief and pain
Should seek to overwhelm me,
Let me a steadfast trust retain.
And then at my departure
Take Thou me home to Thee,
And let me there inherit
All thou hast promised me.
In life and death, Lord, keep me
Until Thy heav'n I gain,
Where I by Thy great mercy
The end of faith attain.

Lord Jesus, Who Art Come
Author: E. L. Fischer, 1695-1773 Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Trinity 19 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, who art come
A Teacher sent from heaven
And by both word and deed
God's truth to us hast given.
Thou wisely hast ordained
The holy ministry
That we, Thy flock, may know
The way to God through Thee.
2 Thou hast, O Lord, returned,
To God's right hand ascending;
Yet Thou art in the world,
Thy kingdom here extending.
Through preaching of Thy Word
In ev'ry land and clime
Thy people's faith is kept
Until the end of time.
3 O blessed ministry
Of reconciliation,
That shows the way to God
And brings to us salvation!
By Thine evangel pure,
Lord, Thou preserv'st Thy fold,
Dost call, enlighten, keep,
Dost comfort and uphold.
4 Preserve this ministry
While harvest days are keeping;
And since the fields are ripe
And hands are few for reaping,
Send workers forth, O Lord,
The sheaves to gather in
That not a soul be lost
Which Thou art come to win.
5 The servants Thou hast called
And to Thy Church art giving
Preserve in doctrine pure
And holiness of living.
Thy Spirit fill their hearts,
Endue their tongues with pow'r;
What they should boldly speak,
O give them in that hour!
6 Yea, bless Thy Word alway,
Our souls forever feeding;
And may we never lack
A faithful shepherd's leading!
Seek Thou the wand'ring sheep,
Bind up the sore opprest,
Lift up the fallen ones,
And grant the weary rest.
7 Bring those into Thy fold
Who still to Thee are strangers;
Guard those who are within
Against offense and dangers.
Press onward with Thy Word
Till pastor and his fold
Through faith in Thee, O Christ,
Thy glory shall behold.
