Fear not, O little flock, the foe
Author: Johann Michael Altenburg, 1584-1640; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #470 (1961) Meter: 8.8.6 D Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 Fear not, O little flock, the foe
Who madly seeks your overthrow;
Dread not his rage and pow'r:
What though your courage sometimes faints,
His seeming triumph o'er God's saints
Lasts but a little hour.
2 Be of good cheer; your cause belongs
To him who can avenge your wrongs;
Leave it to him, our Lord:
Though hidden yet from all our eyes,
He sees the Gideon who shall rise
To save us and his Word.
3 As true as God's own Word is true,
Nor earth nor hell with all their crew
Against us shall prevail.
A jest and byword are they grown;
God is with us, we are his own;
Our vict'ry cannot fail.
4 Amen, Lord Jesus, grant our pray'r;
Great Captain, now thine arm make bare,
Fight for us once again;
So shall thy saints and martyrs raise
A mighty chorus to thy praise,
World without end. Amen.
Amen. Scripture: Luke 12:32 Languages: English Tune Title: JEHOVAH NISSI
Fear not, O little flock, the foe
Jesus, Lord of life and glory
Author: James J. Commins Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #472 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lord of life and glory,
Bend from heav'n thy gracious ear;
While our waiting souls adore thee,
Friend of helpless sinners, hear:
Refrain:
By thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord.
2 From the depth of nature's blindness,
From the hard'ning pow'r of sin,
From all malice and unkindness,
From the pride that lurks within, [Refrain]
3 When temptation sorely presses,
In the day of Satan's pow'r,
In our times of deep distresses,
In each dark and trying hour, [Refrain]
4 When the world around is smiling,
In the time of wealth and ease,
Earthly joys our hearts beguiling,
In the day of health and peace, [Refrain]
5 In our weary hours of sickness,
In our times of grief and pain,
When we feel our mortal weakness,
When the creature's help is vain, [Refrain]
6 In the solemn hour of dying,
In the awful judgment day,
May our souls, on thee relying,
Find thee still our Rock and Stay: [Refrain]
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AUSTIN
Jesus, Lord of life and glory
From heav'n the Lord with searching eye
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #474 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 From heav'n the Lord with searching eye
Looked down the sons of men to try,
To see if any understood
And sought for God, the only good.
2 From righteousness they all depart,
Corrupt are all, and vile in heart;
Yea, ev'ry man has evil done;
Not one does good, not even one.
3 Has knowledge with the wicked failed,
That they my people have assailed,
That they delight in works of shame,
And call not on Jehovah's Name?
4 Thy lowly servant they despise,
Because he on the Lord relies;
But they shall tremble yet in fear,
For to the righteous God is near.
5 O that from Zion his abode
Salvation were on us bestowed!
When God his exiles shall restore,
They shall in song his grace adore.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 14:2-7 Languages: English Tune Title: EISENACH
From heav'n the Lord with searching eye
In Thy Wrath and Hot Displeasure
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #487 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 In thy wrath and hot displeasure,
chasten not thy servant, Lord;
let thy mercy, without measure,
help and peace to me afford.
Heavy is my tribulation,
sore my punishment has been;
broken by thine indignation,
I am troubled by my sin.
2 With my burden of transgression
heavy-laden, overborne,
humbled low I make confession,
for my folly now I mourn.
Weak and wounded, I implore thee;
Lord, to me thy mercy show;
all my pray'r is now before thee,
all my trouble thou dost know.
3 Darkness gathers, foes assail me,
but I answer not a word;
all my friends desert and fail me,
only thou my cry hast heard.
Lord, in thee am I confiding;
thou wilt answer when I call,
lest my foes, the good deriding,
triumph in thy servant's fall.
4 I am prone to halt and stumble,
grief and sorrow dwell within,
shame and guilt my spirit humble;
I am sorry for my sin.
Lord, my God, do not forsake me,
let me know that thou art near,
under thy protection take me,
as my Savior now appear.
Scripture: Psalm 38 Languages: English Tune Title: RUSTINGTON
In Thy Wrath and Hot Displeasure
Faith of our fathers! living still
Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #487 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 Faith of our fathers! living still
In spite of dungeon, fire and sword;
O how our hearts beat high with joy
Whene'er we hear God's glorious Word:
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death.
2 Our fathers, chained in prisons dark,
Were still in heart and conscience free;
And blest would be their children's fate
If they, like them, should die for thee:
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death.
3 Faith of our fathers! God's great pow'r
Shall draw all nations unto thee;
And through the truth that comes from God
His people shall indeed be free:
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death.
4 Faith of our fathers! we will love
Both friend and foe in all our strife,
And preach thee, too, as love knows how
By witness true and virtuous life:
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death. Scripture: Jude 3 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CATHERINE
Faith of our fathers! living still
Jesus, lead thou on
Author: Count Nikolaus Ludwig von Zinzendorf; Christian Gregor; Jane Borthwick Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #504 (1961) Meter: 5.5.8.8.5.5 Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 Jesus, lead thou on
Till our rest is won:
And although the way be cheerless,
We will follow calm and fearless:
Guide us by thy hand
To our fatherland.
2 If the way be drear,
If the foe be near,
Let not faithless fears o'ertake us;
Let not faith and hope forsake us;
For through many a woe
To our home we go.
3 When we seek relief
From a long-felt grief;
When temptations come alluring,
Make us patient and enduring;
Show us that bright shore
Where we weep no more.
4 Jesus, lead thou on
Till our rest is won.
Heav'nly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, control, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our fatherland.
Amen. Scripture: John 8:12 Languages: English Tune Title: SEELENBRÄUTIGAM
Jesus, lead thou on
To God my earnest voice I raise
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #509 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 To God my earnest voice I raise,
To God my voice imploring prays;
Before his face my grief I show
And tell my trouble and my woe.
2 When gloom and sorrow compass me,
The path I take is known to thee,
And all the toils that foes do lay
To snare thy servant in his way.
3 O Lord, my Saviour, now to thee,
Without a hope besides, I flee,
To thee, my shelter from the strife,
My portion in the land of life.
4 Be thou my help when troubles throng,
For I am weak and foes are strong;
My captive soul from prison bring,
And thankful praises I will sing.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 142 Languages: English Tune Title: ROCKINGHAM OLD
To God my earnest voice I raise
Now Israel may say, and that in truth
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #514 (1961) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10 Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 Now Israel may say, and that in truth,
If that the Lord had not our right maintained,
If that the Lord had not with us remained,
When cruel men against us rose to strive,
We surely had been swallowed up alive.
2 Yea when their wrath against us fiercely rose,
The swelling tide had o'er us spread its wave,
The raging stream had then become our grave,
The surging flood, in proudly swelling roll,
Most surely then had overwhelmed our soul.
3 Blest be the Lord who made us not their prey:
As from the snare a bird escapeth free,
Their net us rent and so escaped are we:
Our only help is in Jehovah's Name,
Who made the earth and all the heav'nly frame.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 124 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 124TH
Now Israel may say, and that in truth
Judge me, God of my salvation
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #539 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 Judge me, God of my salvation,
Plead my cause, for thee I trust:
Hear my earnest supplication,
Save me from my foes unjust.
O my soul, why art thou grieving?
What disquiets and dismays?
Hope in God, his help receiving,
I shall yet my Saviour praise.
2 For my Strength, my God, thou art:
Why am I cast off by thee
In the sorrow of my heart,
While the foe oppresses me?
Light and truth, my way attending,
Send thou forth to be my guide,
Till thy holy mount ascending,
I within thy house abide.
3 At thy sacred altar bending,
God, my God, my boundless joy,
Harp and voice, in worship blending,
For thy praise will I employ.
O my soul, why art thou grieving?
What disquiets and dismays?
Hope in God; his help receiving,
I shall yet my Saviour praise.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 43 Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENHAFREN
Judge me, God of my salvation
How long wilt thou forget me
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #541 (1961) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Adversaries Lyrics: 1 How long wilt thou forget me,
O Lord, thou God of grace?
How long shall fears beset me,
While darkness hides thy face?
How long shall griefs distress me
And turn my day to night?
How long shall foes oppress me
And triumph in their might?
2 O Lord my God, behold me,
And hear my earnest cries;
Lest sleep of death enfold me,
Enlighten thou mine eyes;
Lest now my foe insulting
Should boast of his success,
And enemies exulting
Rejoice in my distress.
3 But I with expectation
Have on thy grace relied;
My heart in thy salvation
Shall still with joy confide;
And I with voice of singing
Will praise the Lord above,
Who, richest bounties bringing,
Hast dealt with me in love.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 13 Languages: English Tune Title: ANGEL'S STORY
How long wilt thou forget me
