Father of peace, and God of love

We own thy pow'r to save,
That pow'r by which our Shepherd rose
Victorious o'er the grave.

When by his sacred blood
Confirmed and sealed for evermore
Th'eternal covenant stood.
3 O may thy Spirit seal our souls,
And mould them to thy will,
That our weak hearts no more may stray,
But keep thy cov'nant still;
4 That all we think and all we do
Be pleasing in thy sight,
Through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise
In endless glory bright.

Our Souls With Pleasing Wonder View
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 23 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Our souls with pleasing wonder view
The bounties of Thy grace;
How much bestowed, how much reserved,
For them that seek Thy face!
2 Thy liberal hand with worldly bliss
Oft makes their cup run o’er;
And in the covenant of Thy love
They find diviner store.
3 Here mercy hides their numerous sins;
Here grace their souls renews;
Here Thine own reconcilèd face
Doth heav’nly beams diffuse.
4 But O! what treasures yet unknown
Are lodged in worlds to come?
If these th’enjoyment of the Way,
How happy is their home?
5 And what shall mortal worms reply?
Or how such goodness own?
But ’tis our joy that, Lord, to Thee
Thy servants’ hearts are known.
6 Thine eyes shall read those grateful thoughts,
No language can express;
Yet when our liveliest thanks we pay,
Our debts do most increase.
7 Since time’s too short, all gracious God,
To utter half Thy praise,
Lord, to the honor of Thy name
Eternal hymns we’ll raise. Used With Tune: CREDITON Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Founded on Various Texts in the Holy Scriptures, by Job Orton (J. Eddowes and J. Cotton, 1755)
Our Souls With Pleasing Wonder View
The church of God a kingdom is
Author: L. B. C. L. Muirhead, 1845-1925 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 23 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The church of God a kingdom is,
where Christ in power doth reign;
where spirits yearn till, seen in bliss,
their Lord shall come again.
2 Glad companies of saints possess
this church below, above;
and God’s perpetual calm doth bless
their paradise of love.
3 An altar stands within the shrine
whereon, once sacrificed,
is set, immaculate, divine,
the Lamb of God, the Christ.
4 There rich and poor, from countless lands,
praise God on mystic rood;
there nations reach forth holy hands
to take God’s holy food.
5 There pure life-giving streams o’erflow
the sower’s garden-ground;
and faith and hope fair blossoms show,
and fruits of love abound.
6 O King, O Christ, this endless grace
to us and all men bring,
to see the vision of thy face
in joy, O Christ, our King. Topics: Holy Communion; Proper 16 Year B Scripture: 1 John 3:2 Used With Tune: CREDITON

O sing a new song to the Lord
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 25 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O sing a new song to the Lord,
for wonders he hath done:
his right hand and his holy arm
him victory hath won.
2 Jehovah his salvation hath
now caused to be known;
his justice in the heathen’s sight
he openly hath shown.
3 He mindful of his grace and truth
to Israel’s house hath been;
and the salvation of our God
all ends of the earth have seen.
4 Let all the earth unto the Lord
send forth a joyful noise;
lift up your voice aloud to him,
sing praises, and rejoice.
5 With harp, with harp, and voice of psalms,
unto Jehovah sing:
6 with trumpets, cornets, gladly sound
before the Lord the King.
7 Let seas and all their fulness roar;
the world, and dwellers there;
8 let floods clap hands, and let the hills
together joy declare
9 Before the Lord; because he comes,
to judge the earth comes he:
he’ll judge the world with righteousness,
the nations uprightly. Scripture: Psalm 98 Used With Tune: CREDITON
