Brood o'er Us with Thy Sheltering Wing

Author: Mary B. Eddy Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #651 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Brood o’er us with Thy sheltering wing, ’Neath which our spirits blend Like brother birds, that soar and sing, And on the same branch bend. The arrow that doth wound the dove Darts not from those who watch and love. 2. If thou the bending reed would break By thought or word unkind, Pray that His Spirit you partake, Who loved and healed mankind: Seek holy thoughts and heavenly strain, That make men one in love remain. 3. Learn, too, that wisdom’s rod is given For faith to kiss, and know; That greetings glorious from high heaven, Whence joys supernal flow, Come from that Love, divinely near, Which chastens pride and earthborn fear. 4. Through God, who gave that word of might Which swelled creation’s lay: Let there be light, and there was light. What chased the clouds away? ’Twas love whose finger traced aloud A bow of promise on the cloud. 5. Thou to whose power our hope we give, Free us from human strife. Fed by Thy love divine we live, For Love alone is life; And life most sweet, as heart to heart Speaks kindly when we meet and part. Languages: English Tune Title: WESSEX

When Troubles, Like A Whelming Sea

Author: Harriet Auber Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13142 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 When troubles, like a whelming sea, Their waves tumultuous roll, To God our Savior let us flee, He will their rage control: Why should our hearts give way to fear, With Christ, our refuge, ever near? 2 In vain against Thy chosen band Shall impious nations join; Upheld by Thee Thy church shall stand, Though earth with hell combine: No foes, no danger, shall she fear, For Christ, her refuge, still is near. 3 While guilt despairs in frantic tones, The faithful shall rejoice, And midst expiring nature’s groans Shall hear a Savior’s voice: "My people, cast away your fear: Behold, your refuge still is near."

Lord, when before Thy throne we meet

Author: Tresilian George Nicholas Hymnal: Church Book #332 (1890) Lyrics: 1 Lord, when before Thy throne we meet, Thy goodness to adore, From heaven, the eternal mercy-seat, On us Thy blessing pour, And make our inmost souls to be A habitation meet for Thee. 2 Thy Body for our ransom given, Thy Blood in mercy shed,-- With this immortal food from heaven, Lord, let our souls be fed: And as we round Thine altar kneel, Help us Thy quickening grace to feel. 3 Be Thou, O Holy Spirit, nigh; Accept the humble prayer, The contrite soul's repentant sigh, The sinner's heartfelt tear; And let our adoration rise As fragrant incense to the skies.

Author: Unknown Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3883 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 First Line: Lord of my life! Whose tender care Lyrics: 1. Lord of my life! Whose tender care Hath led me on till now, Here lowly at the hour of prayer Before Thy throne I bow; I bless Thy gracious hand, and pray Forgiveness for another day. 2. Oh, may I daily, hourly, strive In heavenly grace to grow; To Thee and to Thy glory live, Dead to all else below; Tread in the path my Savior trod, Though thorny, yet the path to God. 3. With prayer my humble praise I bring For mercies day by day; Lord! teach my heart Thy love to sing, Lord! teach me how to pray; All that I have, I am, to Thee I offer, through eternity. An alternate version, for use with the tune FINLAND, by Fredrik Pacius (1809-1891): 1. Lord of my life! Whose tender care Hath led me on till now, Here lowly at the hour of evening prayer Before Thy radiant throne I humbly bow; I bless Thy gracious hand, and pray Forgiveness for this day. 2. Oh, may I daily, hourly, strive In heav’nly grace to grow; To Thee and to Thy glory ever live, Dead to all other earthly things below; Tread in the path my Savior trod, Though thorny, yet to God. 3. With prayers my humble praise I bring For mercies day by day; Lord! teach my willing heart Thy love to sing, Lord! teach me now and ever how to pray; All that I have, I give to Thee Through all eternity.
