O Lord and Master of Us All

Author: John G. Whittier Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Lord and Master of us all, Whate’er our name or sign, We own Thy sway, we hear Thy call, We test our lives by Thine. 2. Thou judgest us; Thy purity Doth all our lusts condemn; The love that draws us nearer Thee Is hot with wrath to them. 3. Our thoughts lie open to Thy sight And naked to Thy glance Our secret sins are in the light Of Thy pure countenance. 4. Yet weak and blinded though we be, Thou dost our service own; We bring our varying gifts to Thee, And Thou rejectest none. 5. To Thee our full humanity, Its joys and pains belong; The wrong of man to man on Thee Inflicts a deeper wrong. 6. Who hates, hates Thee; who loves, becomes Therein to Thee allied: All sweet accords of hearts and homes In Thee are multiplied. 7. Apart from Thee all gain is loss, All labor vainly done; The solemn shadow of the cross Is better than the sun. 8. Our Friend, our Brother, and our Lord, What may Thy service be? Nor name, nor form, nor ritual word, But simply following Thee. 9. We faintly hear, we dimly see, In differing phrase we pray; But dim or clear, we own in Thee The Light, the Truth, the Way.

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Se, huru hög är Kristi glans, Där uppå Faderns tron! Hans helgon, där en sluten krans, Uppstämma sångens ton! 2 Hans kyrka bedje vid hans fot! Dess äldste offret pris! Och må han taga offret mot På nådigt frälsarvis. 3 Ack, sången är så underskön, – Så sjunger skaran stor: "Vår Jesus lyssnar till vår bön Och hör vår lofsångs kor." 4 Må evigt ljuda denna sång, Må ära, frid och fröjd På Lammet hvila, som en gång Led smärtan i dess höjd.

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 105 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now that the sun is gleaming bright, Once more to God we pray, That He, the uncreated Light, May guide our souls this day. 2 No sinful word, nor deed of wrong, Nor thoughts that idly rove; But simple truth be on our tongue, And in our hearts be love. 3 And while the hours in order flow, O Christ, securely fence Our gates beleaguered by the foe, The gate of every sense. 4 And grant that to Thine honor, Lord, Our daily toil may tend: That we begin it at Thy word, And in Thy favor end.

The Rush May Rise

Author: Unknown Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals First Line: The rush may rise where waters flow Lyrics: 1 The rush may rise where waters flow, And flags beside the stream; But soon their verdure fades and dies Before the scorching beam. 2 So is the sinner’s hope cut off; Or, if it transient rise, ’Tis like the spider’s airy web, From every breath that flies. 3 Fixed on his house, he leans; his house, And all its props decay: He holds it fast; but while he holds, The tottering frame gives way. 4 Fair is his garden, to the sun His boughs with verdure smile; And, deeply fixed, his spreading roots Unshaken stand a while. 5 But forth the sentence flies from Heaven, That sweeps him from his place; Which then denies him for its lord, Nor owns it knew his face. 6 Lo! this the joy of wicked men, Who Heaven’s high laws despise; They quickly fall; and in their room, As quickly others rise. 7 But, for the just, with gracious care, God will His power employ; He’ll teach their lips to sing His praise, And fill their hearts with joy.

Great King Of Glory And Of Grace

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 45 hymnals First Line: Great King of glory and of grace! Lyrics: 1 Great King of glory and of grace! We own with humble shame, How vile is our degenerate race, And our first father’s name. 2 From Adam flows our tainted blood, The poison reigns within: Makes us averse to all that’s good, And willing slaves to sin. 3 Daily we break Thy holy laws, And then reject Thy grace; Engaged in the old serpent’s cause, Against our Maker’s face. 4 We live estranged afar from God, And love the distance well; With haste we run the dangerous road That leads to death and hell. 5 And can such rebels be restored? Such natures made divine? Let sinners see Thy glory, Lord, And feel this power of Thine. 6 We raise our Father’s name on high Who His own Spirit sends To bring rebellious strangers nigh, And turn His foes to friends.
