New ev'ry morning is the love

Author: J. Keble Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 360 hymnals Matching Instances: 105 Lyrics: 1 New ev'ry morning is the love Our wakening and uprising prove; Through sleep and darkness safely brought, Restor'd to life, and pow'r, and tho't 2 New mercies, each returning day, Hover around us while we pray; New perils past, new sins forgiven, New thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven. 3 If on our daily course our mind Be set to hallow all we find, New treasures still, of countless price, God will provide for sacrifice. 4 Old friends, old scenes, will lovelier be, As more of heaven in each we see; Some softening gleam of love and prayer Shall dawn on every cross and care. 5 The trivial round, the common task, Will furnish all we need to ask; Room to deny ourselves, a road To bring us daily nearer God. 6 Only, O Lord, in Thy dear love, Fit us for perfect rest above; And help us, this and every day, To live more nearly as we pray. Amen. Topics: Daily Prayer Morning Used With Tune: MELCOMBE

How Blest the Man Who Fears the Lord

Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 8 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1. How blest the man who fears the Lord And greatly loves God’s holy will; His children share his great reward, And blessings all their days shall fill. 2. Abounding wealth shall bless his home, His righteousness shall still endure, To him shall light arise in gloom, For he is merciful and pure. 3. The man whose hand the weak befriends In judgment shall his cause maintain; A peace unmoved his life attends, And long his memory shall remain. 4. Of evil tidings not afraid, His trust is in the Lord alone; His heart is steadfast, undismayed, For he shall see his foes o’erthrown. 5. With kind remembrance of the poor, For their distress his gifts provide; His righteousness shall thus endure, His name in honor shall abide. 6. To shame the wicked shall be brought, While righteous men shall favor gain; Unrighteous hopes shall come to naught, Its due reward shall sin obtain. Scripture: Psalm 112 Used With Tune: MELCOMBE

All things are thine; no gift have we

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807 - 92 Appears in 92 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 All things are thine; no gift have we, Lord of all gifts, to offer thee; And hence with grateful hearts today Thine own before thy feet we lay. 2 Thy will was in the builders' thought; Thy hand unseen amidst us wrought; Through mortal motive, scheme and plan, Thy wise eternal purpose ran. A-men. 3 In weakness and in want we call On thee for whom the heavens are small; Thy glory is thy children's good, Thy joy thy tender fatherhood. 4 O Father, deign these walls to bless; Fill with thy love their emptiness; And let their door a gateway be To lead us from ourselves to thee.
