O Master Workman of the race

Author: Rev. Jay T. Stocking Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 111 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Master Workman of the race, Thou Man of Galilee, Who with the eyes of early youth Eternal things didst see, We thank Thee for Thy boyhood faith That shone Thy whole life through; "Did ye not know it is my work, My Father's work to do?" 2 O Carpenter of Nazareth, Builder of life divine, Who shapest man to God's own law, Thyself the fair design, Build us a tower of Christ-like height, That we the land may view, And see, like Thee, our noblest work, Our Father's work to do. 3 O Thou who dost the vision send And givest each his task, And with the task sufficient strength, Show us Thy will, we ask; Give us a conscience bold and good, Give us a purpose true, That it may be our highest joy Our Father's work to do. Amen.

God is our refuge and our strength

Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 52 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God is our refuge and our strength, in straits a present aid; 2 therefore, although the earth remove, we will not be afraid: though hills amidst the seas be cast; 3 though waters roaring make, and troubled be; yea, though the hills by swelling seas do shake. 4 A river is, whose streams make glad the city of our God, the holy place, wherein the Lord most high hath his abode. 5 God in the midst of her doth dwell; nothing shall her remove: God unto her an helper will, and that right early, prove. 6 The heathen raged tumultuously, the kingdoms moved were: the Lord God uttered his voice, the earth did melt for fear. 7 The Lord of hosts is on our side our safety to maintain: the God of Jacob doth for us a refuge high remain. 8 Come, and behold what wondrous works have by the Lord been wrought; come, see what desolations he upon the earth hath brought. 9 Unto the ends of all the earth wars into peace he turns: the bow he breaks, the spear he cuts, in fire the chariot burns. 10 Be still, and know that I am God; among the heathen I will be exalted; I on earth will be exalted high. 11 The Lord of hosts is on our side our safety to maintain; the God of Jacob doth for us a refuge high remain.

The Lord is rich and merciful

Author: Rev. Thomas Toke Lynch (1818-1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 40 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord is rich and merciful; The Lord is very kind; O come to Him, come now to Him, With a believing mind. His comforts, they shall strengthen thee, Like flowing waters cool; And He shall for thy spirit be A fountain ever full. 2 The Lord is glorious and strong; Our God is very high; O trust in Him, trust now in Him, And have security. He shall be to thee like the sea, And thou shalt surely feel His wind, that bloweth healthily Thy sicknesses to heal. 3 The Lord is wonderful and wise, As all the ages tell; O learn of Him, learn now of Him, Then with thee it is well. And with His light thou shalt be blest, Therein to work and live; And He shall be to thee a rest When evening hours arrive. Amen.
