Praise the everlasting King.

To our fathers in distress;
Praise him still the same as ever,
Slow to chide, and swift to bless:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Glorious in his faithfulness.
3 Father-like he tends and spares us;
Well our feeble frame he knows;
In his hands he gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Widely yet his mercy flows.
4 Come, then,, help us to adore him,
Till we see him face to face;
Gladly worship we before him,
Dwellers now in time and space.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace.

He Who Would Valiant Be
Author: John Bunyan; Percy Dearmer Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.6.6.5 Appears in 163 hymnals Topics: Other Observances Christian Education; Other Observances Stewardship Lyrics: 1 He who would valiant be
'Gainst all disaster,
Let him in constancy
Follow the Master.
There's no discouragement
Shall make him once relent
His first avowed intent
To be a pilgrim.
2 Whoso beset him round
With dismal stories
Do but themselves confound—
His strength the more is.
No foes shall stay his might;
Though he with giants fight,
He will make good his right
To be a pilgrim.
3 Since, Lord, thou dost defend
Us with thy Spirit,
We know we at the end
Shall life inherit.
Then, fancies, flee away!
I'll fear not what men say,
I'll labor night and day
To be a pilgrim.
Amen. Scripture: Mark 8:34 Used With Tune: ST. DUNSTAN'S

On your people pour your power;
Crown the ancient church's story;
Bring her bud to glorious flower.

Grant us courage,
For the facing of this hour,
For the facing of this hour.

Scorn the Christ, assail his ways!
From the fears that long have bound us
Free our hearts to faith and praise.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
For the living of these days,
For the living of these days.
3 Cure your children's warring madness,
Bend our pride to your control;
Shame our wanton, selfish gladness,
Rich in things and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
Lest we miss the Kingdom's goal,
Lest we miss the Kingdom's goal.
4 Save us from weak resignation
To the evils we deplore;
Let the search for your salvation
Be our glory evermore.

Grant us courage,
Serving God whom we adore,
Serving God whom we adore.

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,339 hymnals Topics: Other Observances Mission; Other Observances Reformation Day Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
He whose word cannot be broken
Formed you for his own abode.
On the Rock of Ages founded,
What can shake your sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
You may smile at all your foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal Love,
Well supply your sons and daughters,
And all fears of want remove:
Who can faint, while such a river
Flows their thirst to satisfy?
Grace, which, like the Lord the giver,
Never fails; he does supply.
3 Round each habitation hovering,
See the cloud and fire appear
For a glory and a covering,
Showing that the Lord is near:
Thus deriving from their banner
Light by night and shade by day,
Safe they feed upon the manna
Which he gives them when they pray.
Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 46:13 Used With Tune: AUSTRIAN HYMN

Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through;
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer,
Be thou still my strength and shield,
Be Thou still my strength and shield.
3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside;
Death of deaths, and hell's Destruction,
Land me safe on Canaan's side;
Songs of praises, songs of praises
I will ever give to thee,
I will ever give to thee.

Leaving all for his dear sake.

Of the vain world's golden store,
From each idol that would keep us,

Days of toil and hours of ease,
Still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
"Christian, love me more than these."

Savior, may we hear your call,
Give our hearts to your obedience,
Serve and love you best of all.

Its homes with love and laughter filled!

And her foundations strong;
We hear within the solemn voice
Of her unending song.

Though earthquake shocks are threatening her,
And tempests are abroad,
4 Unshaken as eternal hills,
Immovable she stands,
A mountain that shall fill the earth,
A house not made by hands.
