Lord of the harvest, once again

Author: Joseph Anstice, 1808-1836 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 26 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord of the harvest, once again, we thank You for the ripened grain; for crops safe carried, sent to cheer Your servants through another year; for all sweet holy thoughts, supplied by seed-time, and by harvest-tide. 2 The bare dead grain, in autumn sown, its robe of vernal green puts on; glad from its wintry grave it springs, fresh garnished by the King of kings; so, Lord, to those who sleep in You shall bodies glorious be and new. 3 Daily, O Lord, our prayers be said, as You hav taught, for daily bread, but not alone our bodies feed,– supply our fainting spirits’ need. O Bread of Life, from day to day be all their comfort, food and stay! Topics: Creation Harvest Used With Tune: SURREY

We Have Not Known Thee as We Ought

Author: Thomas Pollock Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 50 hymnals Lyrics: 1. We have not known Thee as we ought, Nor learned Thy wisdom, grace and power; The things of earth have filled our thought, And trifles of the passing hour. Lord, give us light Thy truth to see, And make us wise in knowing Thee. 2. We have not feared Thee as we ought, Nor bowed beneath Thine awful eye, Nor guarded deed and word and thought, Remembering that God was nigh. Lord, give us faith to know Thee near, And grant the grace of holy fear. 3. We have not loved Thee as we ought, Nor cared that we are loved by Thee; Thy presence we have coldly sought, And feebly longed Thy face to see. Lord, give a pure and loving heart To feel and know the love Thou art. 4. We have not served Thee as we ought, Alas, the duties left undone, The work with little fervor wrought, The battles lost or scarcely won! Lord, give the zeal, and give the might, For Thee to toil, for Thee to fight. 5. When shall we know Thee as we ought, And fear and love and serve aright? When shall we, out of trial brought, Be perfect in the land of light? Lord, may we day by day prepare To see Thy face and serve Thee there.

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 35 hymnals First Line: What am I, O Thou glorious God Lyrics: 1. What am I, O Thou glorious God! And what my father’s house to Thee, That Thou such mercies hast bestowed On me, the chief of sinners, me! I take the blessing from above, And wonder at Thy boundless love. 2. Me in my blood Thy love passed by, And stopped, my ruin to retrieve; Wept o’er my soul Thy pitying eye, Thy bowels yearned, and sounded Live! Dying, I heard the welcome sound, And pardon in Thy mercy found. 3. Honor, and might, and thanks, and praise, I render to my pardoning God, Extol the riches of Thy grace, And spread Thy saving name abroad, That only name to sinners giv’n, Which lifts poor dying worms to Heav’n. 4. Jesus, I bless Thy gracious power, And all within me shouts Thy name; Thy name let every soul adore, Thy power let every tongue proclaim; Thy grace let every sinner know, And find with me their heaven below.

Lord God of Hosts, whose mighty hand

Author: John Oxenham, 1852 - 1941 Appears in 26 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord God of hosts, whose mighty hand Dominion holds on sea and land, In peace and war thy will we see Shaping the larger liberty; Nations may rise and nations fall, Thy changeless purpose rules them all. A-men. 2 For those who weak and broken lie In weariness and agony, Great Healer, to their beds of pain Come, touch and make them whole again. O hear a people's prayers, and bless Thy servants in their hour of stress. 3 For those to whom the call shall come, We pray thy tender welcome home; The toil, the bitterness, all past, We trust them to thy love at last. O hear a people's prayers for all Who, nobly striving, nobly fall. 4 For those who minister and heal, And spend themselves, their skill, their zeal; Renew their hearts with Christ-like faith, And guard them from disease and death; And in thine own good time, Lord, send Thy peace on earth till time shall end. Amen. Topics: Church Life and Work City, Nation, World Used With Tune: SURREY (CAREY)
