When Israel Out of Egypt Went
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #239 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Israel in the Desert Lyrics: 1 When Israel out of Egypt went,
From people of a speech unknown,
The Lord among His people dwelt,
And there He set His royal throne.
2 The sea behold and fled away,
The Jordan's waters backward turned,
The lofty mountains and the hills
With trembling awe our God discerned.
3 What aileth thee, O troubled sea?
Thou Jordan, why thy riven tide?
Ye mountains and ye little hills,
Why thus dismayed on every side?
4 O tremble, earth, before the Lord,
In presence of Jehovah fear,
Beneath whose touch the flinty rock
Became a fount of waters clear. Scripture: Psalm 114 Languages: English Tune Title: ABSCHIED
When Israel Out of Egypt Went
O thou who the Shepherd of Israel art
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #279 (1961) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Israel In the Desert Lyrics: 1 O thou who the Shepherd of Israel art,
Give ear to our pray'r and thy favor impart;
Thou leader of Joseph, thou guide of his way,
'Mid cherubim dwelling, thy glory display.
2 In Ephraim's, Manasseh's and Benjamin's sight,
O come thou and save us; awake in thy might.
O God, give us favor, restore to thy grace;
And then we shall live in the light of thy face.
3 From Egypt's dark border a vine thou didst take;
Destroying the heathen didst room for it make.
Where planted it grew at thy sov'reign command,
With roots deeply set and boughs filling the land.
4 The axe hews it down; it is burned in the fire;
They perish, rebuked in thy terrible ire.
O lay then thy hand on the Man of thy might,
The Son of Man made to stand strong in thy sight.
5 No more shall we wander, delighting in shame;
Revive us, O Lord, we will call on thy Name.
O Lord God of Hosts, us restore to thy grace,
And then we shall live in the light of thy face.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 80:1-3 Tune Title: JOANNA
O thou who the Shepherd of Israel art
My people, give ear, attend to my word
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #301 (1961) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: Israel In the Desert Lyrics: 1 My people, give ear, attend to my word,
In parables new deep truths shall be heard;
The wonderful story our fathers made known
To children succeeding by us must be shown.
2 Instructing our sons we gladly record
The praises, the works, the might of the Lord,
For he has commanded that what he has done
Be passed in tradition from father to son.
3 Let children thus learn from history's light
To hope in our God and walk in his sight,
The God of their fathers to fear and obey,
And ne'er like their fathers to turn from his way.
4 The story be told, to warn and restrain,
Of hearts that were hard, rebellious, and vain,
Of soldiers who faltered when battle was near,
Who kept not God's cov'nant nor walked in his fear.
5 God's wonderful works to them he had shown,
His marvelous deeds their fathers had known;
He made for their pathway the waters divide,
His glorious pillar of cloud was their guide.
6 Unharmed through the sea, where perished their foe,
He caused them with ease and safety to go;
His holy land gaining, in peace they were brought
To dwell in the mountain the Lord's hand had bought.
7 He gave them the land, a heritage fair;
The nations that dwelt in wickedness there
He drove out before them with great overthrow,
And gave to his people the tents of the foe.
8 His servant he called, a shepherd of sheep,
From tending his flock, the people to keep;
So David, their shepherd, with wisdom and might
Protected and fed them and led them aright.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 78 Languages: English Tune Title: HANOVER (CROFT)
My people, give ear, attend to my word
The God of Abraham praise
Author: Thomas Olivers, 1724-1799 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #331 (1997) Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Topics: Desert / Wilderness Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise,
who reigns enthroned above,
ancient of everlasting days,
and God of love.
Almighty, great I Am!
by earth and heaven confessed,
I bow and bless the sacred name
forever blest.
2 The God of Abraham praise,
at whose supreme command
from earth I rise and seek
the joys at God's right hand.
I all on earth forsake,
its wisdom, fame and power,
and Lord my only portion make,
my shield and tower.
3 Though nature’s strength decay,
and earth and hell withstand,
to Canaan’s bounds I urge my way
at God's command;
the watery deep I pass
with Jesus in my view;
and through the howling wilderness
my way pursue.
4 The goodly land I see,
with peace and plenty blest,
a land of sacred liberty
and endless rest;
there milk and honey flow,
and oil and wine abound,
and trees of life forever grow,
with mercy crowned.
5 There dwells the Lord our King,
the Lord our Righteousness;
triumphant o’er the world and sin,
the Prince of Peace
On Zion’s sacred height
God's kingdom still maintains,
and glorious with the saints in light
forever reigns.
6 The whole triumphant host
give thanks to God on high;
"hail, Father, Son and Holy Ghost"
they ever cry.
Hail, Abraham’s God, and mine!
I join the heavenly lays;
all might and majesty are thine,
and endless praise. Scripture: Genesis 15:1 Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI

When I can read my title clear
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #466 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian experience A desert Lyrics: 1 When I can read my title clear
To mansions in the skies,
I bid farewell to ev'ry fear,
And wipe my weeping eyes.
2 Should earth against my soul engage,
And fiery darts be hurl'd:
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 heav'n, my all!
4 There I shall bathe my weary soul
In seas of heavenly rest;
And not a wave of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast.
When I can read my title clear
How do thy mercies close me round
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #467 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian experience A desert Lyrics: 1 How do thy mercies close me round,
For ever be thy name ador'd;
I blush in all things to abound;
The servant is above his Lord!
2 Inur'd to poverty and pain,
A suff'ring life my Master led:
The Son of God, the Son of man,
He had not where to lay his head.
3 But lo! a place he hath prepar'd
For me, whom watchful angels keep;
Yea, he himself becomes my guard;
He smooths my bed, and gives me sleep.
4 Jesus protects; my fears, begone:
What can the rock of ages move!
Safe in thine arms I lay me down,
Thine everlasting arms of love.
5 While thou art intimately nigh,
Who, who shall violate my rest?
Sin, earth, and hell I now defy;
I lean upon my Saviour's breast.
6 I rest beneath th'Almighty's shade,
My griefs expire, my troubles cease;
Thou, Lord, on whom my soul is stay'd,
Wilt keep me still in perfect peace.
7 Me for thine own thou lov'st to take
In time and in eternity;
Thou never, never wilt forsake
A helpless worm that trusts in thee.
How do thy mercies close me round
What cheering words are these!
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #468 (1828) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian experience A desert Lyrics: 1 What cheering words are these!
Their sweetness who can tell?
In time and to eternity,
’Tis with the righteous well.
2 In every state secure,
Kept by Jehovah’s eye,
’Tis well with them while life endures,
And well when call'd to die.
3 ’Tis well when joys arise,
’Tis well when sorrows flow;
’Tis well when darkness veils the skies,
And strong temptations blow.
4 ’Tis well when on the mount
They feast on dying love'
And ’tis as well in God’s account,
When they the furnace prove.
5 'Tis well when at his throne,
They wrestle, weep, and pray,
'Tis well when at his feet they groan,
Yet bring their wants away.
6 'Tis well when Jesus calls,
From earth and sin, arise,
Join with the host of virgin souls,
Made to salvation wise. Scripture: Isaiah 3:10
What cheering words are these!

May your presence, may your presence
with us evermore be found,
3 so that when your love shall call us,
Saviour, from the world away,
fear of death shall not appall us,
glad your summons to obey.
May we ever, may we ever
live in you in endless day. Scripture: Exodus 33:14 Languages: English Tune Title: TANTUM ERGO

There Is a Land of Pure Delight
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #550 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Israel In the Desert Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight,
where saints immortal reign;
infinite day excludes the night,
and pleasures banish pain.
2 There everlasting spring abides,
and never-with'ring flow'rs;
death, like a narrow sea, divides
this heav'nly land from ours.
3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
stand dressed in living green;
so to the Jews old Canaan stood,
while Jordan rolled between.
4 But tim'rous mortals start and shrink
to cross this narrow sea;
and linger, shiv'ring, on the brink,
and fear to launch away.
5 O could we make our doubts remove,
those gloomy doubts that rise,
and see the Canaan that we love
with unbeclouded eyes;
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
and view the landscape o'er,
not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
should fright us from the shore.
