Be it my only wisdom here

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #467 (1890) Lyrics: 1 Be it my only wisdom here To serve the Lord with filial fear, With loving gratitude! Knowledge divine may I display, By shunning every evil way, And walking in the good. 2 O may I still from sin depart! A wise and understanding heart, Jesus, to me be given! And let me through thy Spirit know To glorify my God below, And find my way to heaven. Topics: The Christian Life Wisdom and Self-Knowledge Languages: English Tune Title: PURLEIGH

Lord of the Church, we humbly pray

Author: E. Osler Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #95 (1913) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord of the Church, we humbly pray For those who guide us in Thy way, And speak Thy holy word; With love divine their hearts inspire, And touch their lips with hallowed fire, And needful strength afford. 2 Help them to preach the truth of God, Redemption through the Savior's blood; Nor let the Spirit cease On all the Church His gifts to shower; To them a messenger of power, To us, of life and peace. 3 So may they live to Thee alone; Then hear the welcome word,"Well done!" And take their crown above; Enter into their Master's joy, And all eternity employ In praise, and bliss, and love.

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #390 (1913) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Author of faith, to Thee I cry, To Thee, who would'st not have me die, But know the truth and live: Open mine eyes to see Thy face, Work in my heart the saving grace, The life eternal give. 2 I know the work is only Thine, The gift of faith is all divine; But if on Thee we all, Thou wilt the benefit bestow, And give us hearts to feel and know That Thou hast died for all. 3 Thou bid'st us knock and enter in, Come unto Thee and rest from sin, The blessing seek and find; Thou bid'st us ask Thy grace, and have; Thou can'st, Thou would'st, this moment save Both me and all mankind. 4 Be it according to Thy word! Now let me find my pardoning Lord, Let what I ask be given; The bar of unbelief remove, Open the door of faith and love, And take me into heaven.

Trustful Praise and Prayer

Hymnal: The Psalter #392 (1912) First Line: Blest be the Lord, my rock, my might Lyrics: 1 Blest be the Lord, my rock, my might, My constant helper in the fight, My shield, my righteousness, My strong high tower, my Saviour true, Who doth my enemies subdue, My shelter in distress. 2 Lord, what is man, what hath he wrought, The son of man, that in thy thought To hold him Thou shouldst deign? For man is like a breath, a sight, His days on earth as quickly fly As shadows o'er the plain. 3 Lord, how thy heav'ns in might descend, Touch Thou the hills, the mountains rend, And they shall smoke and flame; As arrows send Thy lightnings out to put Thy enemies to rout, And fill thy foes with shame. 4 Stretch forth Thy hand and rescue me From trouble's dark and raging sea, And from the alien throng, Whose mouth but vanity doth speak, Whose hand of strength against the weak Is filled with craft and wrong. 5 Now will I sing a glad new song, Thy praise, O God, I will prolong, For Thou hast heard my prayer; Salvation Thou dost give to kings, Thy own dost keep, with shelt'ring wings, From hurtful sword and snare. 6 O Thou to Whom in trust I flee, Stretch forth Thy hand and rescue me From all the alien throng, Whose mouth but vanity doth speak, Whose hand of strength against the weak Is filled with craft and wrong.
