O God, eternal source
Author: E. T. Horn III, b. 1909; J. Heermann, 1585 - 1647; M. Rinkart, 1586 - 1649; C. Winkworth, 1829 - 78 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #460 (1958) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 O God, eternal source
Of love beyond our knowing,
Who giveth every gift,
Thy boundless grace bestowing:
Grant soundness to our minds
And wholeness to our frame,
And pardon to our souls,
That we may praise thy Name. A-men.
2 O help us to fulfill
On earth our holy calling;
O make us hear thy voice,
And keep our feet from falling.
So may we serve thee here
With all our strength and might,
And may our every deed
Be righteous in thy sight.
3 All praise and thanks to God
The Father now be given,
The Son and him who reigns
With them in highest heaven;
The one, eternal God,
Whom earth and heaven adore,
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.
Amen.

O God, eternal source
All good gifts around us
Author: Jane Montgomery Campbell, 1817 - 78; Matthias Claudius, 1740 - 1815 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #364 (1958) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D with refrain First Line: We plough the fields, and scatter Lyrics: 1 We plow the fields, and scatter
The good seed on the land,
But it is fed and watered
By God's almighty hand;
He sends the snow in winter,
The warmth to swell the grain,
The breezes and the sunshine,
And soft refreshing rain.
Refrain:
All good gifts around us
Are sent from heaven above,
Then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord,
For all his love.
2 He only is the Maker
Of all things near and far;
He paints the wayside flower,
He lights the evening star;
The winds and waves obey him,
By him the birds are fed;
Much more to us, his children,
He gives our daily bread. [Refrain]
3 We thank thee then, O Father,
For all things bright and good,
The seed-time and the harvest,
Our life, our health, our food;
No gifts have we to offer
For all thy love imparts,
But that which thou desirest,
Our humble, thankful hearts. [Refrain] Topics: Church Life and Work Rogation and Harvest Languages: English Tune Title: WIR PFLUGEN
All good gifts around us
O how shall I receive thee
Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607 - 76; Composite Hymnal: SBHC1958 #11 (1958) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O how shall I receive thee,
How greet thee, Lord, aright?
All nations long to see thee,
My Hope, my heart's delight!
O kindle, Lord most holy,
Thy lamp within my breast,
To do in spirit lowly
All that may please thee best.
2 Thy Zion palms is strewing,
And branches fresh and fair;
My heart, its powers renewing,
An anthem shall prepare.
My heart, its powers renewing,
An anthem shall prepare.
With all her strength and gladness
She fain would serve thy Name.
3 Love caused thine incarnation,
Love brought thee down to me;
Thy thirst for my salvation
Procured my liberty.
O love beyond all telling
That led thee to embrace,
In love all love excelling,
Our lost and fallen race.
4 Rejoice, then, ye sad-hearted,
Who sit in deepest gloom,
Who mourn o'er joys departed
And tremble at your doom,
He who alone can cheer you
Is standing at the door;
He brings his pity near you,
And bids you weep no more.

O how shall I receive thee
The Church's one foundation
Author: Samuel John Stone, 1839 - 1900 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #149 (1958) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 The Church’s one foundation
Is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is his new creation
By water and the word:
From heaven he came and sought her
To be his holy bride,
With his own Blood he bought her,
And for her life he died.
2 Elect from every nation,
Yet one o’er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation
One Lord, one faith, one birth;
One holy Name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food,
And to one hope she presses,
With every grace endued. A-men.
3 'Mid toil and tribulation,
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace for evermore;
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest.
4 Yet she on earth hath union
With God, the Three in One,
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won.
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
Like them, the meek and lowly,
On high may dwell with thee.
Amen. Topics: The Church The People of God; The Church The House of God Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA
The Church's one foundation
O day of rest and gladness
Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #182b (1958) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright!
On thee the high and lowly,
Before the eternal throne,
Sing, 'Holy, holy, holy,'
To the great Three in One.
2 On thee, at the creation,
The light first had its birth;
On thee, for our salvation,
Christ rose from depths of earth;
On thee our Lord victorious
The Spirit sent from heaven;
And thus on thee most glorious
A triple light was given. A-men.
3 Today on weary nations
The heavenly manna falls;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where Gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
5 New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest.
To Holy Ghost be praises,
To Father, and to Son;
The Church her voice upraises
To thee, blest Three in One.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Easter; The Church Worship - The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: KOMM, SEELE
O day of rest and gladness
Mine eyes unto the mountains
Author: Ernst W. Olson, 1870 - 1958 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #398 (1958) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Mine eyes unto the mountains
I lift, whence help goes forth;
My help comes from Jehovah,
Maker of heaven and earth.
Thy foot shall never falter;
Thy every step he keeps;
The Lord who keepeth Israel,
He slumbers not, nor sleeps.
2 The shade of the Almighty
Shields thee upon the right;
The sunlight shall not smite thee,
Nor yet the moon by night.
Thy coming in he blesseth,
And from the temple door
Thy going out he guideth
Now and for evermore. Topics: The Life In Christ Contemplation; The Life in Christ Aspiration Scripture: Psalm 121 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 130TH

Nor let thy mercy cease;
From Satan's might defend us,
And grant our souls release.
2 Abide with us, our Saviour,
Sustain us by thy word;
That we with all thy people
To life may be restored. A-men.
3 Abide with us, our Saviour,
Thou Light of endless light,
Increase to us thy blessings,
And save us by thy might.
4 To Father, Son, and Spirit,
Eternal One in Three,
As was, and is forever,
All praise and glory be.

Ten thousand times ten thousand
Author: Henry Alford, 1810 - 71 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #595a (1958) Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Ten thousand times ten thousand
In sparkling raiment bright,
The armies of the ransomed saints
Throng up the steeps of light:
'Tis finished, all is finished,
Their fight with death and sin;
Fling open wide the golden gates,
And let the victors in!
2 What rush of alleluias
Fills all the earth and sky;
What ringing of a thousand harps
Bespeaks the triumph high;
O day, for which creation
And all its tribes were made;
O joy, for all its former woes
A thousand-fold repaid! A-men.
3 O then what raptured greetings
On Canaan's happy shore,
What knitting severed friendships up,
Where partings are no more!
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle
That brimmed with tears of late;
Orphans no longer fatherless,
Nor widows desolate.
4 Bring near thy great salvation,
Thou Lamb for sinners slain;
Fill up the roll of thine elect,
Then take thy power and reign;
Appear, Desire of Nations,
Thine exiles long for home;
Show in the heavens thy promised sign,
Thou Prince and Saviour, come!
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Saints' Days - Minor Festivals; The Life In Christ Life Everlasting Languages: English Tune Title: KOMM, SEELE

Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost
Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #119 (1958) Meter: 7.7.7.5 Lyrics: 1 Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost,
Taught by thee, we covet most
Of thy gifts at Pentecost,
Holy, heavenly love.
2 Faith that mountains could remove,
Tongues of earth or heaven above,
Knowledge, all things, empty prove
Without heavenly love.
3 Love is kind, and suffers long;
Love is meek, and thinks no wrong,
Love than death itself more strong;
Therefore give us love.
4 Faith and hope and love we see,
Joining hand in hand, agree;
But the greatest of the three,
And the best, is love.
