Now Israel May Say

Hymnal: H1955 #357 (1955) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10 First Line: Now Israel may say, and that in truth Lyrics: 1 Now Israel may say, and that in truth, If that the Lord had not our right maintained, If that the Lord had not with us remained, When cruel men against us rose to strive, We surely had been swallowed up alive. 2 Yea, when their wrath against us fiercely rose, The swelling tide had o'er us spread its wave, The raging stream had then become our grave, The surging flood, in proudly swelling roll, Most surely then had overwhelmed our soul. 3 Blest be the Lord, who made us not their prey; As from the snare a bird escapeth free, Their net is rent and so escaped are we; Our only help is in God's holy name, Who made the earth and all the heavenly frame. Amen. Topics: Peace on Earth; Trial and Conflict; Unity; Victory; Life in Christ Trial and Conflict Scripture: Psalm 124 Tune Title: OLD 124TH

Turn Back, O Man, Forswear Thy Foolish Ways

Author: Clifford Bax Hymnal: H1955 #490 (1955) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Turn back, O man, forswear thy foolish ways. Old now is earth, and none may count her days, Yet thou, her child, whose head is crowned with flame, Still wilt not hear thine inner God proclaim— "Turn back, O man, forswear thy foolish ways." 2 Earth might be fair and all men glad and wise. Age after age their tragic empires rise, Built while they dream, and in that dreaming weep: Would man but wake from out his haunted sleep, Earth might be fair and all men glad and wise. 3 Earth shall be fair, and all her people one: Nor till that hour shall God's whole will be done. Now, even now, once more from earth to sky, Peals forth in joy man's old, undaunted cry— "Earth shall be fair, and all her folk be one!" Amen.

Abide with Me: Fast Falls the Eventide

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: H1955 #64 (1955) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see. O Thou, who changest not, abide with me. 3 I need Thy presence every passing hour; What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me. 4 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless: Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me. 5 Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies: Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Amen. Topics: Evening; God Eternity and Power; God Protection; Life Everlasting, The; Worship Evening Scripture: Psalm 102:26-27 Tune Title: EVENTIDE

Spirit of God, Descend Upon My Heart

Author: George Croly Hymnal: H1955 #236 (1955) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, descend upon my heart; Wean it from earth; through all its pulses move; Stoop to my weakness, mighty as Thou art, And make me love Thee as I ought to love. 2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies, No sudden rending of the veil of clay, No angel visitant, no opening skies; But take the dimness of my soul away. 3 Hast Thou not bid us love Thee, God and King? All, all Thine own, soul, heart, and strength, and mind; I see Thy cross—there teach my heart to cling: O let me seek Thee, and O let me find! 4 Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh; Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear, To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh; Teach me the patience of unanswered prayer. 5 Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love, One holy passion filling all my frame; The baptism of the heaven-descended Dove, My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame.

We Thank Thee, Lord

Laufer Hymnal: H1955 #294 (1955) Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: We thank Thee, Lord, Thy paths of service lead Lyrics: 1 We thank Thee, Lord, Thy paths of service lead To blazoned heights and down the slopes of need; They reach Thy throne, encompass land and sea, And he who journeys in them walks with Thee. 2 We've sought and found Thee in the secret place And marveled at the radiance of Thy face; But often in some far-off Galilee Beheld Thee fairer yet while serving Thee. 3 We've felt Thy touch in sorrow's darkened way Abound with love and solace for the day; And, 'neath the burdens there, Thy sovereignty Has held our hearts enthralled while serving Thee. 4 We've seen Thy glory like a mantle spread O'er hill and dale in saffron flame and red; But in the eyes of men, redeemed and free, A splendor greater yet while serving Thee. Amen. Topics: Christ Beauty; Christ Presence; Christ Sympathy; Discipleship; Life in Christ Discipleship and Service Scripture: Matthew 25:40 Tune Title: FIELD
