O Love of God, How Strong and True
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 110 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O love of God, how strong and true!
eternal and yet ever new,
uncomprehended and unbought,
beyond all knowledge and all thought!
O love of God, how deep and great,
far deeper than man's deepest hate;
self-fed, self-kindled like the light,
changeless, eternal, infinite.
2 O heav'nly love, how precious still,
in days of weariness and ill,
in nights of pain and helplessness,
to heal, to comfort, and to bless!
O wide-embracing, wondrous love!
We read you in the sky above,
we read you in the earth below,
in seas that swell, and streams that flow.
3 We read you best in him who came
to bear for us the cross of shame;
sent by the Father from on high,
our life to live, our death to die.
We read your pow'r to bless and save,
e'en in the darkness of the grave;
still more in resurrection light
we read the fulness of your might.
4 O love of God, our shield and stay
through all the perils of our way!
Eternal love, in you we rest,
forever safe, forever blest.
We will exalt you, God and King,
and we will ever praise your name;
we will extol you ev'ry day,
and evermore your praise proclaim.

Higher Ground

New height I'm gaining ev'ry day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
"Lord, plant my feet on higher ground."
Refrain:
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on heaven's table-land,
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
2. My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim is higher ground. [Refrain]
3. I want to live above the world,
Though Satan's darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground. [Refrain]
4. I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I'll pray till heav'n I've found,
"Lord, lead me on to higher ground." [Refrain] Scripture: Micah 4:2 Used With Tune: [I'm pressing on the upward way] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/Higher_Ground); Anonymous/Unknown, The Blue Book (62)

O God of God, O Light of Light
Author: J. Julian, 1839-1913 Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 50 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God of God, O Light of Light,
Thou Prince of Peace, Thou King of kings!
To Thee where angels know no night
The song of praise forever rings.
To Him who sits upon the throne,
The Lamb once slain for sinful men,
Be honor, might, all by Him won,
Glory and praise! Amen, Amen.
2 Deep in the prophets' sacred page,
Grand in the poets' winged word,
Slowly, in type, from age to age,
Nations beheld their coming Lord,
Till through the deep Judean night
Rang out the song "Good will to men!"
Hymned by the first-born sons of light,
Reechoed now, "Good will!" Amen.
3 That life of truth, those deeds of love,
That death of pain, mid hate and scorn--
These all are past, and now above
He reigns, our King, once crowned with thorn.
Lift up your heads, ye heav'nly gates!
So sang His hosts, unheard by men,
Lift up your heads, for you He waits.
We lift them up. Amen, Amen.
4 Nations afar, in ign'rance deep,
Isles of the sea, where darkness lay,
These hear His voice, they wake from sleep,
And throng with joy the upward way.
They cry with us, "Send forth Thy light,
O Lamb, once slain for sinful men!
Burst Satan's bonds, O God of might;
Set all men free!" Amen, Amen.
5 Sing to the Lord a glorious song;
Sing to His name, His love forthtell!
Sing on, heav'n's host, His praise prolong;
Sing, ye who now on earth do dwell!
Worthy the Lamb for sinners slain!
From angels praise and thanks from men!
Worthy the Lamb, enthroned to reign,
Glory and pow'r! Amen, Amen.

All Praise to Thee, My God, This Night
Author: Thomas Ken, 1637-1711 Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 1,047 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All praise to thee, my God, this night
For all the blessings of the light.
Keep me, oh, keep me, King of kings,
Beneath thine own almighty wings.
Forgive me, Lord, for thy dear Son
The ill that I this day have done,
That with the world, myself, and thee
I, ere I sleep, at peace may be.
2 Teach me to live that I may dread
The grave as little as my bed.
Teach me to die so that I may
Rise glorious at the awe-full day.
Oh, may my soul on thee repose
And may sweet sleep mine eyelids close,
Sleep that shall me more vig'rous make
To serve my God when I awake.
3 When in the night I sleepless lie,
My soul with heav'nly thoughts supply;
Let no ill dreams disturb my rest,
No pow'rs of darkness me distress.
Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
Praise him, all creatures here below;
Praise him above, ye heav'nly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Topics: Evening; Evening Used With Tune: EVENING HYMN

Exalt the Lord, His Praise Proclaim
Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Exalt the Lord, his praise proclaim;
all ye his servants, praise his name,
who in the Lord's house ever stand
and humbly serve at his command.
The Lord is good, his praise proclaim;
since it is pleasant, praise his name;
his people for his own he takes
and his peculiar treasure makes.
2 I know the Lord is high in state,
above all gods our Lord is great;
the Lord performs what he decrees,
in heav'n and earth, in depths and seas.
He makes the vapors to ascend
in clouds from earth's remotest end;
the lightnings flash at his command;
he holds the tempest in his hand.
3 Exalt the Lord, his praise proclaim;
all ye his servants, praise his name,
who in the Lord's house ever stand
and humbly serve at his command.
Forever praise and bless his name,
and in the church his praise proclaim;
in Zion is his dwelling place;
praise ye the Lord, show forth his grace. Topics: God His perfections; Church Covenant People; God Praise of; God Sovereignty of ; Ministry Ordinations; Servants of Christ of God; Servants of Christ or God Scripture: Psalm 135:1-7 Used With Tune: CREATION Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912
