American, America, We Lift Our Battle Cry

Author: Allen Eastman Cross Appears in 10 hymnals First Line: America, America Lyrics: 1 America, America, We lift our battle cry! To live for thee is more than life, And more than death to die! Now by the blood our fathers gave, And by our God above, And by the Flag on every grave, We pledge to thee our love. 2 America, America, Bid all thy banners shine! O Mother of the mighty dead, Our very lives are thine. At Freedom’s altar now we stand For god and Liberty! Lord, God of hosts, at thy command, We lift our souls to thee. 3 America, America, Speed on, by sea and air! We take the stripes of sacrifice, The stars of honor dare; And by the road our fathers trod We march to victory, To fight for Freedom and for God, Till all the world be free. Used With Tune: MATERNA

Eternal God, Whose Power Upholds

Author: Henry H. Tweedy Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 53 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Eternal God, whose power upholds Both flower and flaming star, To whom there is no here nor there, No time, no near nor far, No alien race, no foreign shore, No child unsought, unknown, O send us forth, Thy prophets true, To make all lands Thine own! 2 O God of love, whose spirit wakes In every human breast, Whom love, and love alone, can know, In whom all hearts find rest, Help us to spread Thy gracious reign Till greed and hate shall cease, And kindness dwell in human hearts, And all the earth find peace! 3 O God of truth, whom science seeks And reverent souls adore, Who lightest every earnest mind Of every clime and shore, Dispel the gloom of error's night, Of ignorance and fear, Until true wisdom from above Shall make life's pathway clear! 4 O God of righteousness and grace, Seen in the Christ, Thy Son, Whose life and death reveal Thy face, By whom Thy will was done, Inspire Thy heralds of good news To live Thy life divine, Till Christ is formed in all mankind And every land is Thine! Amen. Scripture: Micah 4:2-4 Used With Tune: MATERNA

God a Very Present Help

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 22 hymnals First Line: God is our refuge and our strength Lyrics: 1 God is our refuge and our strength, Our ever present aid, And therefore, though the earth remove, We will not be afraid; Though hills amid the seas be cast, Though foaming waters roar, Yea, though the mighty billows shake The mountains on the shore. 2 A river flows whose streams make glad The city of our God, The holy place wherein the Lord Most High has His abode; Since God is in the midst of her, Unmoved her walls shall stand, For God will be her early help, When trouble is at hand. 3 The nations raged, the kingdoms moved, But when His voice was heard The troubled earth was stilled to peace Before His mighty word. The Lord of Hosts is on our side, Our safety to secure; The God of Jacob is for us A refuge strong and sure. 4 O come, behold what wondrous works Jehovah's hand has wrought; Come, see what desolation great He on the earth has brought. To utmost ends of all the earth He causes war to cease; The weapons of the strong destroyed, He makes abiding peace. 5 Be still and know that I am God, O'er all exalted high; The subject nations of the earth My Name shall magnify. The Lord of Hosts is on our side, Our safety to secure, The God of Jacob is for us A refuge strong and sure.

How Happy Every Child of Grace

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 381 hymnals First Line: How happy ev'ry child of grace Lyrics: 1 How happy ev’ry child of grace, Who knows his sins forgiv’n! “This earth,” he cries, “is not my place, I seek my place in Heav’n— A country far from mortal sight, Which yet by faith I see, The land of rest, the saints’ delight, The Heav’n prepared for me.” 2 O what a blessed hope is ours! While here on earth we stay, We more than taste the heav’nly pow’rs, And antedate that day. We feel the resurrection near, Our life in Christ concealed, And with His glorious presence here Our earthen vessels filled. 3 O would He more of Heav’n bestow, And let the vessels break, And let our ransomed spirits go To grasp the God we seek; In rapturous awe on Him to gaze, Who bought the sight for me; And shout and wonder at His grace Thro’ all eternity!
