Hymn 15
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 157 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:7 First Line: Let me but hear my Savior say Lyrics:
Let me but hear my Savior say,
"Strength shall be equal to thy day,"
Then I rejoice in deep distress,
Leaning on all-sufficient grace.
I glory in infirmity,
That Christ's own power may rest on me:
When I am weak, then am I strong,
Grace is my shield, and Christ my song.
I can do all things, or can bear
All suff'rings, if my Lord be there;
Sweet pleasures mingle with the pains,
While his left hand my head sustains.
But if the Lord be once withdrawn,
And we attempt the work alone,
When new temptations spring and rise,
We find how great our weakness is.
[So Samson, when his hair was lost,
Met the Philistines to his cost;
Shook his vain limbs with sad surprise,
Made feeble fight, and lost his eyes.]

How Firm a Foundation
Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2,126 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9 First Line: How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
is laid for your faith in his excellent word!
What more can he say than to you he hath said,
to you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 "Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed,
for I am thy God, and will still give thee aid;
I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
for I will be with thee, thy troubles to bless,
and sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
my grace, all sufficient, shall be thy supply;
the flame shall not hurt thee, I only design
thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine.
5 "The soul that on Jesus still leans for repose,
I will not, I will not desert to its foes;
that soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never, no, never, no, never forsake!"

And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
3 The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.

I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.

when on thy bosom I have leaned

Show us Jesus’ way of living; May our strength be in your peace.
May our faith in you be nourished; May your churches hear your call.

All the way my Saviour leads me
Author: Fanny J. Crosby, 1820-1915 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 317 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9 Lyrics: 1 All the way my Saviour leads me;
what have I to ask beside?
Can I doubt his tender mercy
who through life has been my guide?
Heavenly peace, divinest comfort,
here by faith in him to dwell;
for I know, whate’er befall me
Jesus doeth all things well.
2 All the way my Saviour leads me,
cheers each winding path I tread,
gives me grace for every trial,
feeds me with the living bread.
Though my weary steps may falter,
and my soul athirst may be,
gushing from the rock before me
lo, a spring of joy I see.
3 All the way my Saviour leads me,
oh the fullness of his love!
Perfect rest to me is promised
in my Father’s house above.
When my spirit, clothed immortal,
wings its flight to realms of day,
this my song through endless ages,
"Jesus led me all the way!" Topics: Guidance; Mercy; One Life in Christ Love; Rest; Rock; Thirst Used With Tune: ALL THE WAY

Love seen in trials
Author: William Cowper Appears in 259 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:10 First Line: 'Tis my happiness below Lyrics: 1 'Tis my happiness below
Not to live without the cross,
But the Saviour's power to know,
Sanctifying every loss.
2 Trials must and will befall;
But with humble faith to see
Love inscribed upon them all,--
This is happiness to me.
3 God in Israel sows the seeds
Of affliction, pain and toil;
These spring up and choke the weeds
Which would else o'erspread the soil.
4 Did I meet no trials here,
No chastisement by the way,
Might I not with reason fear
I should prove a castaway?
5 Trials make the promise sweet;
Trials give new life to prayer;
Trials bring me to his feet,
Lay me low, and keep me there. Topics: Afflictions; Christians Afflictions; Comfort; Communion of Saints At Lord's Table; Cross of Christ Bearing Used With Tune: LAST HOPE

"Keep me ever"
Author: John M. Neale Appears in 178 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9 First Line: Holy Father, thou hast taught me Lyrics: 1 Holy Father, thou hast taught me
I should live to thee alone;
Year by year thy hand hath brought me
On through dangers oft unknown.
When I wandered, thou hast found me;
When I doubted, sent me light;
Still thine arm has been around me,
All my paths were in thy sight.
2 In the world will foes assail me,
Craftier, stronger far than I;
And the strife may never fail me,
Well I know, before I die.
Therefore, Lord, I come believing
Thou canst give the power I need;
Through the prayer of faith receiving
Strength--the Spirit's strength, indeed.
3 I would trust in thy protection,
Wholly rest upon thine arm;
Follow wholly thy direction,
Thou, mine only guard from harm!
Keep me from mine own undoing,
Help me turn to thee when tried,
Still my footsteps, Father, viewing,
Keep me ever at thy side. Topics: Afflictions; Backsliding; Christ Teacher; Christians Conflicts; Conflict With Sin Used With Tune: TRISTE

Will you this moment His grace receive? [Refrain] Used With Tune: MARVELOUS GRACE
