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

With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours today.

Through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts
And blessed peace to cheer us;
And keep us in God's grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next.

The Father now be given,
The Son, and him who reigns
With them in highest heaven;

God of Grace and God of Glory
Author: Harry Emerson Fosdick Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 162 hymnals Topics: Seeking guidance Lyrics: 1 God of grace and God of glory,
On thy people pour thy power;
Crown thine ancient church's story;
Bring her bud to glorious flower.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
For the facing of this hour,
For the facing of this hour.
2 Lo! the hosts of evil round us
Scorn thy Christ, assail his ways!
Fears and doubts too 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 thy children's warring madness;
Bend our pride to thy control;
Shame our wanton, selfish gladness,
Rich in things and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
Lest we miss thy kingdom's goal,
Lest we miss thy kingdom's goal.
4 Set our feet on lofty places;
Gird our lives that they may be
Armored with all Christ-like graces
In the fight to set us free.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
That we fail not man nor thee!
That we fail not man nor thee!
5 Save us from weak resignation
To the evils we deplore:
Let the search for thy salvation
Be our glory evermore.
Grant us wisdom,
Grant us courage,
Serving thee whom we adore,
Serving thee whom we adore. Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA Text Sources: Praise and Service, 1932

In Heavenly Love Abiding
Author: Anna L. Waring Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 595 hymnals Topics: Seeking guidance First Line: In heavenly love abiding Lyrics: 1 In heavenly love abiding,
No change my heart shall fear;
And safe is such confiding,
For nothing changes here.
The storm may roar without me,
My heart may low be laid,
But God is round about me,
And can I be dismayed?
2 Wherever he may guide me,
No want shall turn me back;
My Shepherd is beside me,
And nothing can I lack.
His wisdom ever waketh,
His sight is never dim,
He knows the way he taketh,
And I will walk with him.
3 Green pastures are before me
Which yet I have not seen;
Bright skies will soon be over me,
Where darkest clouds have been.
My hope I cannot measure;
My path to life is free,
My Savior has my treasure,
And he will walk with me. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: PASSION CHORALE Text Sources: Hymns and Meditations, 1850

God is our Refuge and our Strength
Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: Seeking Christ of God Seeking Man Lyrics: 1 God is our Refuge and our Strength,
Our ever present aid,
And, therefore, though the earth remove,
We will not be afraid;
Though hills amidst the seas be cast,
Though foaming waters roar,
Yea, though the mighty billows shake
The mountains on the shore.
2 A river flows whose streams make glad
The city of our God,
The holy place wherein the Lord
Most high has his abode;
Since God is in the midst of her,
Unmoved her walls shall stand,
For God will be her early help,
When trouble is at hand.
3 The nations raged, the kingdoms moved,
But when his voice was heard
The troubled earth was stilled to peace
Before his mighty word.
The Lord of Hosts is on our side,
Our safety to secure,
The God of Jacob is for us
A refuge strong and sure.
4 O come, behold what wondrous works
Jehovah's hand has wrought;
Come, see what desolation great
He on the earth has brought.
To utmost ends of all the earth
He causes war to cease;
The weapons of the strong destroyed,
He makes abiding peace.
5 Be still and know that I am God,
O'er all exalted high;
The subject nations of the earth
My Name shall magnify.
The Lord of Hosts is on our side,
Our safety to secure,
The God of Jacob is for us
A refuge strong and sure.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 46 Used With Tune: MATERNA Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912

Christ Is Merciful and Mild
As With Gladness Men of Old
Author: William Chatterton Dix Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 661 hymnals Topics: Seeking God Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old
did the guiding star behold,
as with joy they hailed its light,
leading onward, beaming bright,
so, most gracious Lord, may we
evermore your splendour see.
2 As with joyful steps they sped,
to that lowly manger bed,
there to bend the knee before
Christ, whom heaven and earth adore;
so may we with eager pace
ever seek your throne of grace.
3 As they offered gifts most rare
at that manger rude and bare,
so may we with holy joy,
pure and free from sin's alloy,
all our costliest treasures bring,
Christ, to you, our heavenly King.
4 Holy Jesus, every day
keep us in the narrow way;
and, when earthly things are past,
bring our ransomed lives at last
where they need no star to guide,
where no clouds your glory hide.
5 In the heavenly country bright
none shall need created light;
you its light, its joy, its crown,
you its sun which goes not down;
there forever may we sing
hallelujah to our King. Used With Tune: DIX
As With Gladness Men of Old
