O Lord, Ordain Thy Servant

Author: P. C. Paulsen Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #145 (1927) Topics: Ordination Lyrics: 1 O Lord, ordain Thy servant And turn to him Thy face That he with spirit fervent May preach Thy Word of grace; And with Thy gifts anointed By prophecy and pray'r, Let him go forth appointed To serve Thy church with care. 2 With tender mercy lead him And set him on the Rock; In pastures green Thou feed him That he may feed Thy flock; The gospel of salvation Put Thou upon his lips and lend him inspiration To lead them in Thy steps. 3 When hosts of hell assail him And vex him with their might, Thy mercy shall not fail him, Nor shall Thy grace and light. If darkness should enfold him And cloud his spirit's eye, Thy mighty hand uphold him And guide him from on high. 4 Oh, meet him in his chamber And listen to his prayer; With kindness him remember, Surround him with Thy care, And help him in his calling To teach the heaven-born, To warn the sinners falling And comfort those who mourn. 5 Thus, in Thy service use us From early morn till night; Let evil not confuse us, Nor dim Thy Spirit's light. Thy people do Thou nourish, With Sacrament and Word, That fields of thine may flourish And bear Thee fruit, O Lord! Languages: English Tune Title: [O Lord, ordain Thy servant]
