Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise
Author: Walter Chalmers Smith, 1824-1908 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #71 (2011) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Lyrics: 1 Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
Most blessed, most glorious, O Ancient of Days,
Almighty, victorious, Thy great name we praise.
2 Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
Nor wanting, nor wasting, Thou rulest in might;
Thy justice like mountains high soaring above
Thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.
3 To all, life Thou givest, to both great and small;
In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;
We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
And wither and perish, but naught changeth Thee.
4 Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,
Thine angels adore Thee, all veiling their sight;
All praise we would render: O help us to see
'Tis only the splendor of light hideth Thee.
Amen. Topics: God the Father Majesty and Power; Faith; God Eternity and Power Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:17 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. DENIO

Come, O My Soul, in Sacred Lays
Author: Thomas Blacklock, 1721-1791 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #72 (2011) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Come, O my soul, in sacred lays;
Attempt thy great Creator’s praise.
But, O what tongue can speak His fame?
What verse can reach the lofty theme?
2 Enthroned amid the radiant spheres,
We glory like a garment wears;
To form a robe of light divine,
Ten thousand suns around Him shine.
3 In all our Maker’s grand designs,
Almighty power with wisdom shines;
His works, through all this wondrous frame,
Declare the glories of His name.
4 Raised on devotion’s lofty wing,
Do thou, my soul, His glories sing;
And let His praise employ thy tongue,
Till listening worlds shall join the song.

Come, O My Soul, in Sacred Lays
All People That on Earth Do Dwell
Author: William Kethe, d. 1593 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #73 (2011) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 All people that on earth do dwell,
Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice.
Him serve with mirth, his praise forth tell;
Come ye before Him and rejoice.
2 Know that the Lord is God indeed;
Without our aid He did us make;
We are His folk, He doth us feed,
And for His sheep He doth us take.
3 O enter then His gates with praise,
Approach with joy His courts unto;
Praise, laud, and bless His Name always,
For it is seemly so to do.
4 For why! the Lord our God is good;
His mercy is for ever sure;
His truth at all times firmly stood,
And shall from age to age endure.

Author: Henry van Dyke, 1852-1933 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #75 (2011) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee,
God of glory, Lord of love;
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee,
Opening to the sun above.
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness;
Drive the dark of doubt away;
Giver of immortal gladness,
Fill us with the light of day!
2 All Thy works with joy surround Thee,
Earth and heaven reflect Thy rays,
Stars and angels sing around Thee,
Center of unbroken praise;
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
Flowery meadow, flashing sea,
Chanting bird and flowing fountain,
Call us to rejoice in Thee.
3 Thou art giving and forgiving,
Ever blessing, ever blest,
Well-spring of the joy of living,
Ocean-depth of happy rest!
Thou are Father, Christ our brother,
All who live in love are Thine;
Teach us how to love each other,
Lift us to the joy divine.
4 Mortals join the mighty chorus,
Which the morning stars began;
Father love is reigning o’er us,
Brother love binds man to man.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife;
Joyful music leads us sunward
In the triumph song of life.

When All Thy Mercies, O My God
Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #76 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 When all Thy mercies, O my God,
My rising soul surveys,
Transported with the view, I'm lost
In wonder, love, and praise.
2 Unnumbered comforts on my soul
Thy tender care bestowed,
Before my infant heart conceived
From whom those comforts flowed.
3 Ten thousand thousand precious gifts
My daily thanks employ;
Nor is the least a cheerful heart
That tastes those gifts with joy.
4 Through every period of my life
Thy goodness I'll pursue;
And after death, in distant worlds,
The glorious theme renew.
Amen. Topics: God the Father Love and Mercy; Adoration; Joy; Thanksgiving Scripture: Psalm 89:1-2 Languages: English Tune Title: GENEVA
When All Thy Mercies, O My God
Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Author: Robert Robinson, 1735-1790 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #77 (2011) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount! O fix me on it,
Mount of God's redeeming love.
2 Here I raise mine Ebenezer,
Hither by Thy help I'm come;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to save my soul from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
3 O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let that grace, Lord, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee:
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, Lord, take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above.
Amen. Topics: God the Father Love and Mercy; Opening; Peace Scripture: Psalm 68:19 Languages: English Tune Title: NETTLETON
Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
There's a Wideness in God's Mercy
Author: Frederick W. Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #78 (2011) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 There’s a wideness in God’s mercy,
Like the wideness of the sea;
There’s a kindness in His justice,
Which is more than liberty.
2 There is welcome for the sinner,
And more graces for the good;
There is mercy with the Savior;
There is healing in His blood.
3 For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of man's mind;
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
4 If our love were but more simple,
We should take Him at His word;
And our lives would be all sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord.
Amen. Topics: God the Father Love and Mercy; God Love and Fatherhood Scripture: Psalm 86 Languages: English Tune Title: WELLESLEY

Thou, Lord, Art Love, and Everywhere
Author: James D. Burns, 1823-1864 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #79 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Thou, Lord, art love, and everywhere
Thy name is brightly shown,
Beneath, on earth, Thy footstool fair,
Above, in heaven, Thy throne.
2 Thy ways are love; though they transcend
Our feeble range of sight,
They wind, through darkness, to their end
In everlasting light.
3 Thy thoughts are love; and Jesus is
The living voice they find;
His love lights up the vast abyss
Of the eternal mind.
4 Thy chastisements are love; more deep
They stamp the seal divine,
And by a sweet compulsion keep
Our spirits nearer Thine.
5 Thy heaven is the abode of love:
O blessed Lord, that we
May there, when time's deep shades remove,
Be gathered home to Thee.
Amen. Topics: God the Father Love and Mercy; God Love and Fatherhood Scripture: 1 John 4:16 Languages: English Tune Title: BELMONT

O God, We Lift Our Hearts to Thee
Author: Claudia McConnell Hymnal: AMEC1984 #80 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O God, we lift our hearts to Thee,
May praise be not in vain;
Teach us to humbly follow Thee,
Thy blessings on us rain.
2 Let not our praise be just a form,
But from our souls ring true;
Banish the pow'r of Satan's arm,
Our thoughts of Thee be pure.
3 Help us to others be more kind,
To love them more and more;
Help us to lift our brother up,
Still let us Thee adore.
4 Thou art the gift of love supreme,
Our souls with Thee be filled;
Our hopes with radiant glory beam,
Our minds obey thy will.
Amen. Topics: God the Father Love and Mercy; God Love and Fatherhood; Peace Scripture: Psalm 103 Languages: English Tune Title: METROPOLITAN
