and put your armor on;
strong in the strength that God supplies
through his eternal Son;
2 Strong in the Lord of hosts,
and in his mighty power;
who in the strength of Jesus trusts
is more than conqueror.
3 Stand then in his great might,
with all his strength endued;
and take, to arm you for the fight,
the weapons of our God;
4 To keep your armour bright
attend with constant care,
and walking in your captain's sight
and keeping watch with prayer.
5 From strength to strength go on:
wrestle and fight and pray;
tread all the powers of darkness down
and win the well-fought day:
6 Till, having all things done
and all your conflicts past,
you overcome through Christ alone
and stand complete at last. Scripture: Ephesians 6:11 Used With Tune: ST. ETHELWALD

Church of God, elect and glorious
Come with all joy to sing to God
Author: Christopher Idle (born 1938) Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Pentecost 2 The People of God Lyrics: 1 Come with all joy to sing to God
our saving rock, the living Lord;
in glad thanksgiving seek his face
with songs of victory and grace.
2 In holiness and light arrayed
above all gods that we have made,
he is the one almighty king,
and his the glory that we sing.
3 The earth is his from east to west,
from ocean-floor to mountain-crest;
he made the sea and formed the lands,
he shaped the islands by his hands.
4 Come near to worship! Come with faith,
bow down to him who gives us breath:
God is our shepherd, he alone;
we are his people, all his own.
5 But if you hear God's voice today
do not reject what he will say;
when Israel wandered from God's path
they suffered forty years of wrath.
6 That generation went astray;
they did not want to know his way:
they put their saviour to the test,
and saw his power, but lost their rest.
7 So to the God of earth and heaven,
the Father, Spirit, Son, be given
praise now, as praise has ever been
and ever shall be praise — Amen! Scripture: Psalm 95 Used With Tune: FULDA Text Sources: Venite

LORD, our Lord, in all the earth,
how great your name!
Yours the name of matchless worth,
excellent in all the earth.
How great your name!

telling of your glorious ways;
weakest means work out your will,
mighty enemies to still.
How great your name! [Refrain]
3 Moon and stars in shining height
nightly tell their Maker's might;
when I view the heavens afar,
then I know how small we are.
How great your name! [Refrain]
4 Who are we that we should share
in your love and tender care--
raised to an exalted height,
crowned with honor in your sight!
How great your name! [Refrain]
5 With dominion crowned, we stand
o'er the creatures of your hand;
all to us subjection yield,
in the sea and air and field.
How great your name! [Refrain]

Jesus, Priceless Treasure

Source of purest pleasure,
Truest friend to me:
Ah, how long I've panted,
And my heart has fainted,
Thirsting, Lord, for thee!
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb;
I will suffer nought to hide thee,
Nought I ask beside thee.
2 In thine arm I rest me;
Foes who would molest me
Cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
Ev'ry heart be quaking,
Jesus calms my fear.
Sin and hell in conflict fell
With their bitter storms assail me,
Jesus will not fail me.
3 Hence, all fears and sadness,
For the Lord of gladness,
Jesus, enters in.
Those who love the Father,
Though the storms may gather,
Still have peace within.
Yea, whate'er I here must bear,
Still in thee lies purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless treasure!

to serve you to the end —
be now and ever near me,
my Master and my Friend:
I shall not fear the battle
if you are by my side,
nor wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.
2 O let me feel you near me,
the world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
the tempting sounds I hear;
my foes are ever near me,
around me and within;
but Jesus, draw still nearer
and shield my soul from sin!
3 O let me hear you speaking
in accents clear and still;
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will:
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
and speak to make me listen,
O Guardian of my soul.
4 O let me see your footmarks
and in them place my own;
my hope to follow truly
is in your strength alone:
O guide me, call me, draw me,
uphold me to the end;
and then in heaven receive me,
my Saviour and my Friend. Used With Tune: WOLVERCOTE
O Jesus, I have promised
