I will of my ways be heedful

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #P39b (2004) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 I will of my ways be heedful, that I sin not with my tongue; for my mouth a curb is needful, while the wicked round me throng. 2 Thus I said, and dumb remained; from my lips no sound was heard; from good words I even refrained, but my inmost soul was stirred. 3 Long my heart was in me burning, ere the smothered flame out-brake, and, the enkindled words returning, thus impatiently I spake: 4 Teach me, Lord, the number meting of my days, how brief it is; make me see and know how fleeting, vain and sad a life is this. 5 Life a span is at the longest; mine is nothing, Lord, to thee; in his best estate and strongest man is only vanity. 6 Yea, he fleeting past us goeth in a shadow brief and vain, heaping riches; but none knoweth who shall gather them again. 7 And where, Lord, is my reliance? All my hope is fixed on thee. From my sin, and the defiance of the foolish, save thou me! 8 I, because it was thy pleasure, murmured not, nor silence broke; yet remove thy plague: o'er measure grievous is thy heavy stroke. 9 When for sin or slighted duty man corrected is by thee, but a moth-worn robe his beauty, and but vanity is he. 10 See my tears, regard my danger; be not deaf unto my prayer; for a sojourner and stranger am I, as my fathers were. 11 Spare me, yet a little spare me, to recover strength, before thy dread summons hence shall bear me to be seen on earth no more!

Ni en la tierra ni en el cielo

Author: José M. de Mora Hymnal: El Himnario Presbiteriano #39 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Ni en la tierra ni en el cielo hay un nombre cual "Jesús." Sobre todo Él solo reina sólo Él es eterna luz. 2 Es Jesús mi gran riqueza; hallo en Él mi solo bien. Valen más que todo el oro los tesoros de su Edén. 3 Es Jesús vida y sustento, pan eterno y celestial. De mi dicha más perfecta es el rico manantial. 4 Infinita es su ternura; ¿quién la puede sondear? Con sus ángeles, hoy quiero su grandeza pregonar. Topics: Jesucristo Scripture: Acts 4:12 Languages: Spanish Tune Title: WELLESLEY

Lord, a band of foes increasing

Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the Morningland #40 (1911) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: I Lord, a band of foes increasing Terror to my heart would bring; For they tell my soul unceasing, That no help from God can spring. II Yet Thou art my shield about me, Till the time of strife is past; And though cruel foes may flout me, Thou wilt hear my prayer at last. III On my couch when night was falling, Lay I down devoid of fear; And when morning light was calling, I awoke, for thou wert near. IV Tens of thousands round my dwelling Stand arrayed to do me harm; But my trust when foes are swelling, Rests in Thine almighty arm. V Rise, O Lord, for Thou, victorious, Hast the might of sin o’erthrown, And amid Thy triumph glorious, Bless the people Thou dost own. Scripture: Psalm 2 Languages: English

Hark! a thrilling voice is sounding

Author: E. Caswall Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #41a (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Hark! a thrilling voice is sounding; "Christ is nigh," it seems to say; "Cast away the works of darkness O ye children of the day!" 2 Wakened by the solemn warning, Let the earth-bound soul arise; Christ, her Sun, all sloth dispelling, Shines upon the morning skies. 3 Lo! the Lamb, so long expected, Comes with pardon down from heaven; Let us haste, with tears of sorrow, One and all to be forgiven; 4 So when next He comes in glory, Wrapping all the world in fear, May He with His mercy shield us, And with words of love draw near. Amen. Topics: Preparation for Christ Languages: English Tune Title: MERTON

There's a Wideness in God's Mercy

Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #41 (2010) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy, like the wideness of the sea; there's a kindness in His justice, which is more than liberty. 2 There is welcome for the sinner, and more graces for the good; there is mercy with the Savior; there is healing in His blood. 3 But we make His love too narrow by false limits of our own; and we magnify His strictness with a zeal He will not own. 4 For the love of God is broader than the measure of the mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. 5 If our love were but more simple, we could take Him at His word; and our lives would be more loving in the likeness of our Lord.

Where is this stupendous stranger?

Author: Christopher Smart, 1722-71 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #41a (1986) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Where is this stupendous stranger? Prophets, shepherds, kings, advise: Lead me to my Master's manger, Show me where my Saviour lies. 2 O most mighty, O most holy, Far beyond the seraph's thought! Art thou then so weak and lowly As unheeded prophets taught? 3 O the magnitude of meekness, Worth from worth immortal sprung! O the strength of infant weakness, If eternal is so young! 4 God all- bounteous, all creative, Whom no ills from good dissuade, Is incarnate-and a native Of the very world he made.
