Call Jehovah Your Salvation
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 220 hymnals Topics: Other Observances Reformation Day Lyrics: 1 Call Jehovah your salvation,
Rest beneath th' Almighty's shade,
In his secret habitation
Dwell, nor ever be dismayed:
There no tumult can alarm you,
You shall dread no hidden snare;
Guile nor violence can harm you,
In eternal safeguard there.
2 From the sword at noonday wasting,
From the noisome pestilence,
In the depth of midnight blasting,
God shall be your sure defense:
He shall charge his angel legions
Watch and ward o'er thee to keep;
Though you walk through hostile regions,
Though in desert wilds you sleep.
3 Since, with pure and firm affection,
You on God hast set your love,
With the wings of his protection
He will shield you from above:
You shall call on him in trouble,
He will hearken, he will save;
Here for grief reward you double,
Crown with life beyond the grave.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 91 Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL
Call Jehovah Your Salvation
O God of Earth and Altar
Author: Gilbert K. Chesterton Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 81 hymnals Topics: Other Observances Stewardship Lyrics: 1 O God of earth and altar,
Bow down and hear our cry;
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die;
The walls of gold entomb us;
The swords of scorn divide;
Take not thy thunder from us,
But take away our pride.
2 From all that terror teaches,
From lies of tongue and pen,
From all the easy speeches
That comfort cruel men,
From sale and profanation
Of honor and the sword,
From sleep and from damnation,
Deliver us, good Lord!
3 Tie in a living tether
The prince and priest and thrall;
Bind all our lives together;
Smite us and save us all;
In ire and exultation,
Aflame with faith, and free,
Lift up a living nation,
A single sword to thee.
Amen. Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN

O Morning Star, How Fair and Bright
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Philip Nicolai Meter: Irregular Appears in 66 hymnals Topics: Other Observances Christian Education Lyrics: 1 O Morning Star, how fair and bright
Your beams shine forth in truth and light!
O Sovereign meek and lowly!
O Root of Jesse, David's Son,
Our Lord and Master, you hast won
Our hearts to serve you solely!
You are holy,
Fair and glorious, all victorious,
Rich in blessing,
Rule and might o'er all possessing.

O deep within our hearts now shine,
And make you there an altar!
Fill us with joy and strength to be
Your members joined unity
In love that cannot falter!
Toward you longing
Does possess us; turn and bless us;
Here in sadness
Eye and heart long for your gladness!
3 Rejoice, O heavens; and earth reply!
With praise, you sinners, fill the sky,
For this his incarnation.
Incarnate God, put forth your power;
Ride on, ride on, great Conqueror,
Till all know your salvation.
Amen, Amen!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Praise be given
Evermore by earth and heaven.

the Prince of glory when he came.

shepherds, swiftly from your stupor rise
to see the Savior of the world! [Refrain]

be the Savior of us all. [Refrain]
