Sing Praise to God, Who Reigns Above
Author: Frances E. Cox; Johann J. Schütz Hymnal: The Worshipbook #568 (1972) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Service for the Lord's Day Opening of Worship Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God who reigns above,
The God of all creation,
The God of power, the God of love,
The God of our salvation;
With healing balm our souls he fills,
And every faithless murmur stills:
To God all praise and glory.
2 What God's almighty power has made,
In mercy he is keeping;
By morning glow or evening shade
His eye is never sleeping;
Within the kingdom of his might,
All things are just and good and right:
To God all praise and glory.
3 Then all our gladsome way along,
We sing aloud in praising,
That men may hear the grateful song
Our voices all are raising;
Be joyful in the Lord, O heart,
Both soul and body, bear your part:
To God all praise and glory.
4 All you who name Christ's holy name
Give God all praise and glory;
All you who own his power, proclaim
Aloud the wondrous story!
Cast each false idol from his throne,
The Lord is God, and he alone:
To God all praise and glory.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 9 Tune Title: MIT FREUDEN ZART

Be Thy strong arm our ever sure defense;

Fill all our lives with love and grace divine,

God of Our Fathers
Eternal Ruler of the Ceaseless Round
Author: John White Chadwick Hymnal: Voices United #571 (1996) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Topics: Opening Hymns Lyrics: 1 Eternal ruler of the ceaseless round
of circling planets singing on their way,
guide of the nations from the night profound
into the glory of the perfect day:
rule in our hearts, that we may live ever new,
guided and strengthened and upheld by you.
2 We are your own, the children of your love,
as dearly loved as your beloved Son;
descend, O Holy Spirit, like a dove,
and rule our hearts, that we may be as one:
as one with you, to whom we ever tend;
as one with Christ, our Saviour and our friend.
3 We would be one in hatred of all wrong,
one in our love of all things kind and fair,
one with the joy that finds a voice in song
one with the grief that trembles into prayer,
one in the power that makes your children free
to follow truth, and thus in you to be.
4 O clothe us with your heavenly armour, Lord,
your trusty shield and sword of love be ours;
our inspiration be your constant word;
we ask no victories that are not yours:
give or withhold, let pain or pleasure fall;
to know that we are serving you is all. Languages: English Tune Title: SONG 1

all that your bounteous grace has given,
and run my course with even joy,

Lift Every Voice and Sing
Author: James Weldon Johnson, 1871-1938 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #571 (2011) Meter: Irregular Topics: Opening Lyrics: 1 Lift every voice and sing,
Till earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of liberty;
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the listening skies,
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us,
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us;
Facing the rising sun
Of our new day begun,
Let us march on till victory is won.
2 Stony the road we trod,
Bitter the chastening rod,
Felt in the days when hope unborn had died;
Yet with a steady beat,
Have not our weary feet
Come to the place for which our fathers sighed?
We have come over a way that with tears has been watered,
We have come, treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered;
Out from the gloomy past,
Till now we stand at last
Where the bright gleam of our bright star is cast.
3 God of our weary years,
God of our silent tears,
Thou who hast brought us thus far on the way;
Thou who hast by Thy might,
Led us into the light,
Keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met Thee,
Lest our hearts, drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee;
Shadowed beneath Thy hand,
May we forever stand,
True to our God, True to our native land. Scripture: Psalm 37:5 Languages: English Tune Title: LIFT EVERY VOICE

My Jesus, as thou wilt!
Author: Benjamin Schmolck; Jane Borthwick Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #572 (1961) Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Topics: Opening and Closing of the Year Lyrics: 1 My Jesus, as thou wilt!
O may thy will be mine;
Into thy hand of love
I would my all resign.
Through sorrow, or through joy,
Conduct me as thine own;
And help me still to say,
My Lord, thy will be done.
2 My Jesus, as thou wilt!
If needy here and poor,
Give me thy people's bread,
Their portion rich and sure.
The manna of thy Word
Let my soul feed upon;
And if all else should fail,
My Lord, thy will be done.
3 My Jesus, as thou wilt!
Though seen through many a tear,
Let not my star of hope
Grow dim or disappear.
Since thou on earth hast wept,
And sorrowed oft alone,
If I must weep with thee,
My Lord, thy will be done.
4 My Jesus, as thou wilt!
All shall be well for me;
Each changing future scene
I gladly trust with thee.
Straight to my home above
I travel calmly on,
And sing, in life or death,
"My Lord, thy will be done."
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 26:39 Languages: English Tune Title: JEWETT

Son of God, Eternal Savior
Author: Somerset Corry Lowry Hymnal: The Worshipbook #573 (1972) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Service for the Lord's Day Opening of Worship Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Savior,
Source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
Hallows all our human race;
You our Head, who, throned in glory,
For your own do ever plead,
Fill us with your love and pity,
Heal our wrongs, and help our need.
2 Lord, as you have lived for others,
So may we for others live;
Freely have your gifts been granted,
Freely may your servants give.
Yours the gold and yours the silver,
Yours the wealth of land and sea,
We, the stewards of your bounty,
Faithful to our trust should be.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us,
King of love and Prince of Peace;
Hush the storm of strife and passion,
Bid its cruel discords cease.
By your patient years of toiling,
By your silent hours of pain,
Quench our fevered thirst of pleasure,
Shame our selfish greed of gain.
4 See the Christ-like host advancing,
High and lowly, great and small,
Linked in bonds of common service
For the common Lord of all.
As you prayed and as you labored
That your people should be one,
Grant, O grant our hope’s fruition:
Here on earth your will be done.
Amen. Scripture: Titus 2:13-14 Tune Title: IN BABILONE

With heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things hath done,

And still is ours to day.

Through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts
And blessed peace to cheer us;
And keep us in His grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next.
3 All praise and thanks to God
The Father now be given,
The Son, and Him who reigns
With them in highest heaven,
The one eternal God,
Whom earth and heaven adore,
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.
