Where Thou shinest, life from heaven There is given: We before Thee For that precious gift implore Thee. 2 Left to ourselves we shall but stray; O lead us on the narrow way, With wisest counsel guide us; And give us steadfastness, that we May henceforth truly follow Thee, Whatever woes betide us: Heal Thou gently hearts now broken, Give some token Thou art near us, Whom we trust to light and cheer us. 3 O mighty Rock! O Source of Life! Let Thy dear Word, 'mid doubt and strife, Be so within us burning, That we be faithful unto death In Thy pure love and holy faith, From Thee true wisdom learning. Lord, Thy graces on us shower! By Thy power Christ confessing, Let us win His grace and blessing. 4 O gentle Dew, from heaven now fall With power upon the hearts of all, Thy tenderness instilling; That heart to heart more closely bound, Fruitful in kindly deeds be found, The law of love fulfilling; No wrath, no strife, then shall grieve Thee; We receive Thee: Where Thou livest Peace and love and joy Thou givest. 5 Grant that our days, while life shall last, In purest holiness be passed; Our minds so rule and strengthen That they may rise o'er things of earth, The hopes and joys that here have birth; And if our course Thou lengthen, Keep Thou pure, Lord, from offences Heart and senses; Blessed Spirit, Bid us thus true life inherit.

Ye sons of Adam, vain and young

God from on high beholds your thoughts, His book records your secret faults; The works of darkness you have done Must all appear before the sun. The vengeance to your follies due Should strike your hearts with terror through: How will you stand before his face, Or answer for his injured grace? Almighty God! turn off their eyes From these alluring vanities; And let the thunder of thy word Awake their souls to fear the Lord. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 11:9 Languages: English

Jehovah hears when Isr'el prays, And brings deliverance from on high. The name of Jacob's God defends Better than shields or brazen walls; He from his sanctuary sends Succor and strength, when Zion calls. Well he remembers all our sighs, His love exceeds our best deserts; His love accepts the sacrifice Of humble groans and broken hearts. In his salvation is our hope, And, in the name of Isr'el's God, Our troops shall lift their banners up, Our navies spread their flags abroad. Some trust in horses trained for war, And some of chariots make their boasts: Our surest expectations are From thee, the Lord of heav'nly hosts. [O may the memory of thy name Inspire our armies for the fight! Our foes shall fall and die with shame, Or quit the field with shameful flight.] Now save us, Lord, from slavish fear, Now let our hopes be firm and strong, Till the salvation shall appear, And joy and triumph raise the song.

When in the form of mortal man Thy Son on earth was found, With cruel slanders, false and vain, They compassed him around. Their miseries his compassion move, Their peace he still pursued; They render hatred for his love, And evil for his good. Their malice raged without a cause, Yet, with his dying breath, He prayed for murderers on his cross, And blessed his foes in death. Lord, shall thy bright example shine In vain before my eyes? Give me a soul akin to thine, To love my enemies. The Lord shall on my side engage, And, in my Savior's name, I shall defeat their pride and rage Who slander and condemn. Scripture: Psalm 109:1-5 Languages: English
