Your Hand, O Lord, in Days of Old

Author: Edward H. Plumptre, 1821-1891 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 178 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Your hand, O Lord, in days of old Was strong to heal and save; It triumphed over pain and death, O'er darkness and the grave. To You they came, the blind, the dumb, The palsied and the lame, The lepers in their misery, The sick with fevered frame. 2 And lo, your touch brought life and health, Gave speech and strength and sight; And youth renewed and frenzy calmed Revealed you, Lord of light. And now, O Lord, be near to bless, Almighty as before, In crowded streets, by beds of pain, As by Gennes'ret's shore. 3 Oh, be our great deliverer still, O Lord of life and death; Restore and quicken, soothe and bless, With Your life giving breath. To hands that work and eyes that see Give wisdom's healing pow'r, That whole and sick and weak and strong May praise you evermore.

God's Word Is like a Flaming Sword

Author: Carl Bernhard Garve; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. God’s word is like a flaming sword, A wedge that cleaves the stone; Keen as a fire, so burns his word, And pierces flesh and bone. Let it go forth o’er all the earth To cleanse our hearts within, To show God’s power in Satan’s hour And break the might of sin. 2. God’s word, a wondrous guiding star, On pilgrim hearts does rise, Leads those to God who dwell afar, And makes the simple wise. Let not its light e’er sink in night, But in each spirit shine, That none may miss heaven’s final bliss, Led by God’s light divine. Amen.
