So longs my soul, O living God, for Thee;
I thirst for Thee, for Thee my heart is yearning;
When shall I come Thy gracious face to see?
2 O Lord my God, o'erwhelmed in deep affliction,
Far from Thy rest, to Thee I lift my soul;
Deep calls to deep and storms of trouble thunder,
While o'er my head the waves and billows roll.
3 Thou wilt command Thy servant's consolation,
Thy loving-kindness yet shall cheer my day,
And in the night Thy song shall be my comfort;
God of my life, to Thee I still will pray.
4 Why, O my soul, art thou cast down within me,
Why art thou troubled and oppressed with grief?
Hope thou in God, the God of thy salvation,
Hope, and thy God will surely send relief.

from your rich and endless store:
nature's wonder, Jesus' wisdom,
costly cross, grave's shattered door;
gifted by you, we turn to you,
offering up ourselves in praise;
thankful songs shall rise forever,
gracious donor of our days.
2 Skills and time are ours for pressing
toward the goals of Christ, your Son:
all at peace in health and freedom,
races joined, the church made one.
Now direct our daily labor,
lest we strive for self alone;
born with talents, make us servants
fit to answer at your throne.
3 Treasure, too, you have entrusted,
gain through powers your grace conferred;
ours to use for home and kindred,
and to spread the gospel word.
Open wide our hands in sharing,
as we heed Christ's ageless call,
healing, teaching, and reclaiming,
serving you by loving all. Scripture: James 1:5 Used With Tune: BEACH SPRING

And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!

His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.

And grace will lead me home.

A pilgrim and a stranger
Appears in 64 hymnals Topics: Confidence in God Lyrics: 1 A pilgrim and a stranger,
I journey here below:
Far distant is my country,
The home to which I go.
Here I must toil and travail,
Oft weary and opprest,
But there my God shall lead me
To everlasting rest.
2 There still my thoughts are dwelling,
'Tis there I long to be;
Come, Lord, and call thy servant
To blessedness with Thee!
Come, bid my toils be ended,
Let all my wanderings cease;
Call from the wayside lodging
To the sweet home of peace!
3 There I shall dwell forever,
No more a stranger guest,
With all thy blood-bought children,
In everlasting rest:
The pilgrim toils forgotten,
The pilgrim conflicts o'er,
All earthly griefs behind us,
Eternal joys before!
A pilgrim and a stranger

A Mighty Fortress
Trust and confidence; or, looking beyond present appearances
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 175 hymnals Topics: Confidence in God First Line: Away my unbelieving fear Lyrics: 1 Away, my unbelieving fear!
Let fear to me no more take place!
My savior doth not yet appear,
He hides the brightness of his face:
But shall I therefore let him go,
And basely to the tempter yield?
No, in the strength of Jesus no!
I never will give up the shield.
2 Altho' the vine its fruits deny,
Altho' the olive yield no oil,
The withering fig-tree droop and die,
The field illude the tiller's toil;
The empty stall no herd afford,
And perish all the bleating race;
Yet I will triumph in the Lord,
The God of my salvation praise.
3 Away, each unbelieving fera,
Let Fear to cheering hope give place;
My Savior will at length appear,
And shew the brightness of his face:
Tho now my prospects all be crost,
My blooming hopes cut off I see,
Still will I in my Jesus trust,
Whose boundless love can reach to me.
4 In hope, believing against hope,
His promis'd mercy will I claim,
His gracious word shall bear me up,
To seek salvation in his name:
Sure, my dear Savior, bring it nigh!
My soul shall then outstrip the wind,
On wings of love mount up on high,
And leave the world and sin behind.
Scripture: Habakkuk 3:17-18
