Matthew 6:25-34
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Laudes Domini #346 (1890) Topics: Cares; Cares First Line: Sometimes a light surprises Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises
The Christian while he sings;
It is the Lord who rises
With healing in his wings:
When comforts are declining,
He grants the soul again
A season of clear shining,
To cheer it after rain.
2 In holy contemplation,
We sweetly then pursue
The theme of God's salvation,
And find it ever new:
Set free from present sorrow,
We cheerfully can say,
Let the unknown to-morrow
Bring with it what it may.
3 It can bring with it nothing,
But he will bring us through;
Who gives the lilies clothing,
Will clothe his people too:
Beneath the spreading heavens,
No creature but is fed;
And he who feeds the ravens,
Will give his children bread.
4 Though vine nor fig-tree neither,
Their wonted fruit should bear,
Though all the fields should wither,
Nor flocks, nor herds be there;
Yet God the same abiding,
His praise shall tune my voice,
For while in him confiding,
I cannot but rejoice. Languages: English Tune Title: CASKEY
Matthew 6:25-34
Faith
Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: Laudes Domini #415 (1888) Topics: Cares First Line: Oh, gift of gifts! oh, grace of faith! Lyrics: 1 Oh, gift of gifts! oh, grace of faith!
My God! how can it be
That thou, who hast discerning love,
Shouldst give that gift to me?
2 How many hearts thou mightst have had
More innocent than mine!
How many souls more worthy far
Of that sweet touch of thine!
3 Ah, grace! into unlikeliest hearts
It is thy boast to come,
The glory of thy light to find
In darkest spots a home.
4 The crowd of cares, the weightiest cross,
Seem trifles less than light--
Earth looks so little and so low
When faith shines full and bright.
5 Oh, happy, happy that I am!
If thou canst be, O Faith,
The treasure that thou art in life,
What wilt thou be in death!
Scripture: Nehemiah 8:10 Languages: English Tune Title: VALENTIA
Faith
Assurance
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #440 (1888) Topics: Cares First Line: When I can read my title clear Lyrics: 1 When I can read my title clear
To mansions in the skies,
I bid farewell to every fear,
And wipe my weeping eyes.
2 Should earth against my soul engage,
And fiery darts be hurled,
Then I can smile at Satan's rage.
And face a frowning world.
3 Let cares like a wild deluge come,
And storms of sorrow fall,
May I but safely reach my home,
My God, my heaven, my all!--
4 There shall I bathe my weary soul
In seas of heavenly rest;
And not a wave of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast. Scripture: Isaiah 32:17 Languages: English Tune Title: BROWN
Assurance
Lord, it belongs not to my care
Author: Richard Baxter, 1615-1691 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #474 (1917) Topics: Cares Rest from Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care
Whether I die or live;
To love and serve Thee is my share
And this Thy grace must give.
2 If life be long, I will be glad
That I may long obey;
If short, yet why should I be sad
To welcome endless day?
3 Christ leads me through no darker rooms
Than He went through before;
He that unto God's kingdom comes
Must enter by this door.
4 Come, Lord, when grace hath made me meet
Thy blessed face to see;
For if Thy work on earth be sweet,
What will Thy glory be?
5 Then I shall end my sad complaints
And weary sinful days,
And join with the triumphant saints
That sing Jehovah's praise.
6 My knowledge of that life is small,
The eye of faith is dim;
But it's enough that Christ knows all,
And I shall be with Him. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. FRANCES
Lord, it belongs not to my care

His Love and Care
Commit thou all thy griefs
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #247 (1898) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Cares Lyrics: 1 Commit thou all thy griefs
And ways into His hands,
To His sure truth and tender care,
Who earth and heaven commands,
Who points the clouds their course,
Whom winds and seas obey;
He shall direct thy wandering feet,
He shall prepare thy way.
2 Thou on the Lord rely,
So safe shalt thou go on;
Fix on His work thy steadfast eye,
So shall thy work be done.
No profit canst thou gain
By self-consuming care;
To Him commend thy cause; His ear
Attends the softest prayer.
3 Thy everlasting truth,
Father, Thy ceaseless love,
Sees all Thy children’s wants, and knows
What best for each will prove;
And whatsoe'er Thou will'st,
Thou dost, O King of kings
What Thy unerring wisdom chose,
Thy power to being brings.
4 Thou everywhere hast sway,
And all things serve Thy might;
Thy every act pure blessing is,
Thy path unsullied light.
When Thou arisest, Lord,
What shall Thy work withstand?
When all Thy children want Thou giv’st,
Who, who shall stay Thy hand?
5 Give to the winds thy fears;
Hope, and be undismayed;
God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears,
God shall lift up thy head.
Through waves and clouds and storms
He gently clears thy way;
Wait thou His time, so shall this night
Soon end in joyous day.
6 Still heavy is thy heart?
Still sink thy spirits down?
Cast off the weight, let fear depart,
And every care be gone.
What though thou rulest not?
Yet heaven and earth and hell
Proclaim, God sitteth on the throne
And ruleth all things well.
7 Leave to His sovereign sway
To choose and to command,
So shalt thou wondering own, His way
How wise, how strong His hand.
Far, far above thy thought
His counsel shall appear,
When fully He the work hath wrought
That caused thy needless fear.
8 Thou seest our weakness, Lord!
Our hearts are known to Thee:
O lift Thou up the sinking hand,
Confirm the feeble knee!
Let us in life, in death,
Thy steadfast truth declare,
And publish with our latest breath
Thy love and guardian care. Languages: English Tune Title: THESSALONICA

Far Away in Old Judea
Author: Walter J. Mathams Hymnal: Sing for Joy #20 (1961) Topics: God Cares for Everyone; God's Love and Care Lyrics: 1 Far away in old Judea
Lived the gentle Lord of Love.
Happy children gathered round him
Everywhere that he might move.
And they sometimes left their play,
Just to follow him all day.
2 Oh, what wondrous tales he told them
Of our Father's thoughtful care;
How he loves us, leads us, keeps us,
Every day and everywhere;
That we never need to fear,
Since his help is always near!
