Your Word Sheds Light upon My Path

Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #759 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Darkness; Powers of Darkness Lyrics: 1 Your word sheds light upon my path; a shining light, it guides my feet. Your righteous judgments to observe, my solemn vow I now repeat. 2 In my distress I plead with you; send help according to your word. Accept my sacrifice of praise and make me know your judgments, LORD. 3 When danger brings me close to death, your law stays with me night and day. The wicked lay a snare for me, yet from your truth I will not stray. 4 Your precepts are my heritage; they make my heart and soul rejoice.

[Refrain] 3 His oath, his covenant, his blood support me in the whelming flood; when all around my soul gives way, he then is all my hope and stay.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Frederick H. Hedge Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #776 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: Powers of Darkness Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing; our helper he, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe does seek to work us woe; his craft and power are great, and armed with cruel hate, on earth is not his equal. 2 Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing, were not the right Man on our side, the Man of God's own choosing. You ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he; Lord Sabaoth his name, from age to age the same; and he must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, we will not fear, for God has willed his truth to triumph through us. The prince of darkness grim, we tremble not for him; his rage we can endure, for lo! his doom is sure; one little word shall fell him. 4 That Word above all earthly powers– no thanks to them– abideth; the Spirit and the gifts are ours through him who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also; the body they may kill: God's truth abideth still; his kingdom is forever! Scripture: Psalm 46 Languages: English Tune Title: EIN FESTE BURG
