That man is blest who stands in awe
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #307 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Charity and justice; Poor charity to them; Charity to the poor Lyrics:
That man is blest who stands in awe
Of God, and loves his sacred law:
His seed on earth shall be renowned;
His house the seat of wealth shall be,
An inexhausted treasury,
And with successive honors crowned.
His lib'ral favors he extends,
To some he gives, to others lends;
A gen'rous pity fills his mind:
Yet what his charity impairs,
He saves by prudence in affairs
And thus he's just to all mankind.
His hands, while they his alms bestowed,
His glory's future harvest sowed;
The sweet remembrance of the just,
Like a green root, revives and bears
A train of blessings for his heirs,
When dying nature sleeps in dust.
Beset with threat'ning dangers round,
Unmoved shall he maintain his ground;
His conscience holds his courage up:
The soul that's filled with virtue's light,
Shines brightest in affliction's night,
And sees in darkness beams of hope.
[Ill tidings never can surprise
His heart that fixed on God relies,
Though waves and tempests roar around:
Safe on the rock he sits, and sees
The shipwreck of his enemies,
And all their hope and glory drowned.
The wicked shall his triumph see,
And gnash their teeth in agony,
To find their expectations crossed;
They and their envy, pride, and spite,
Sink down to everlasting night,
And all their names in darkness lost.]
Scripture: Psalm 112 Languages: English

"Not your own"
Author: Mrs. E. S. Alderson Hymnal: Laudes Domini #464 (1890) Topics: Charity; Charity First Line: Lord of glory! thou hast bought us Lyrics: 1 Lord of glory! thou hast bought us,
With thy life-blood as the price,
Never trudging, for the lost ones,
That tremendous sacrifice.
2 Grant us hearts, dear Lord! to yield thee
Gladly, freely, of thine own;
With the sunshine of thy goodness,
Melt our thankless hearts of stone.
3 Wondrous honor hast thou given
To our humblest charity,
In thine own mysterious sentence,
"Ye have done it unto me!"
4 Give us faith, to trust thee boldly,
Hope, to stay our souls on thee:
But, oh, best of all thy graces
Give us thine own charity.

Your Love, O God, Has All the World Created
Author: Albert F. Bayly, 1901-1984 Hymnal: Journeysongs (2nd ed.) #841 (2003) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Charity; Charity; Charity Lyrics: 1 Your love, O God, has all the world created,
And led your people to this present hour;
In Christ we see life's glory consummated;
Your Spirit manifests his living pow'r.
2 We bring you, Lord, in fervent intercession
The children of your world-wide family:
With contrite hearts we offer our confession,
For we have sinned against your charity.
3 From out the darkness of our hope's frustration,
From all the broken idols of our pride,
We turn to seek your truth's illumination,
And find your mercy waiting at our side.
4 In pity look upon your children's striving
In daily struggles to be understood,
Till at the fullness of your truth arriving,
We find in Christ the crown of ev'ry good.
5 Inspire your church, mid earth's discordant voices,
To preach the gospel of its Lord above,
Until the day this warring world rejoices
To hear the mighty harmonies of love. Languages: English Tune Title: NORTHBROOK
