sing songs of love and praise;
with joyful hearts and voices
your alleluias raise.

in fruitful order move;
sing to the Lord of harvest
a joyful song of love.
2 God makes the clouds drop fatness,
the deserts bloom and spring;
the hills leap up in gladness,
the valleys laugh and sing.
He fills from his great fullness
all things with large increase;
he crowns the year with goodness,
with plenty, and with peace.
3 Heap on his sacred altar
the gifts his goodness gave,
the golden sheaves of harvest,
the souls Christ died to save.
Your hearts lay down before him
when at his feet you fall,
and with your lives adore him
who gave his life for all.

May from my lips be falling,

I must and ought to speak,
My words grant pow'r and grace
Lest I offend the weak.

With kindly words and actions,
And let me find good friends
For counsel and correction.

To love both great and small
And by your Spirit's might
To live in peace with all. Languages: English Tune Title: O GOTT, DU FROMMER GOTT (II)

For all your loving-kindness,
That you have patiently
Borne with me in my blindness!

And trespasses I lay,
I kindled, holy God,
Your anger ev'ry day.
2 It is your work alone
That I am now converted;
O'er Satan's work in me
You have your pow'r asserted.
Your mercy and your grace
That rise afresh each morn
Have turned my stony heart
Into a heart new-born.
3 Lord, you have raised me up
To joy and exultation
And clearly shown the way
That leads me to salvation.
My sins are washed away;
For this I thank you, Lord.
Now with my heart and soul
All evil I abhor.
4 Grant that your Spirit's help
To me be always given
Lest I should fall again
And lose the way to heaven.
Grant that he give me strength
In my infirmity;
May he renew my heart
To serve you willingly.
5 O Father, God of love,
Now hear my supplication;
O Savior, Son of God,
Accept my adoration;
O Holy Spirit, be
My ever faithful guide
That I may serve you here
And there with you abide. Languages: English Tune Title: O GOTT, DU FROMMER GOTT (II)

In your Son you did elect me.
Therefore, Father, on life's road
Graciously to heav'n direct me;
Send to me your Holy Spirit
That his gifts I may inherit.

Lost to all good things by nature,
I was found and changed within
And became a new-born creature.
Sinful flesh works ruination,
But the Spirit works salvation.

Of my darkened mind's reflection.
Quench all thoughts that are not right;
Hold my reason in subjection.
For your truth may I be yearning,
Heav'nly wisdom ever learning.
4 As a branch upon a vine,
In my blessed Lord implant me;
Ever of my head divine
To remain a member grant me.
Oh, let him, my Lord and Savior,
Be my life and love forever!
5 Faith and hope and charity
Graciously, O Father, give me;
Be my guardian constantly
That the devil may not grieve me.
Grant me humbleness and gladness,
Peace and patience in my sadness.
6 Help me speak what's right and good
And keep silence on occasion.
Help me pray, Lord, as I should;
Help me bear my tribulation.
Help me die and let my spirit
Everlasting life inherit. Languages: English Tune Title: LIEBSTER JESU, WIR SIND HIER

Restore your wand'ring sheep.

Offend against my God. Languages: English Tune Title: EVAN

Of our life's wild, restless sea;
Day by day his voice invites us,
Saying, "Christian, follow me!"

By the Galilean lake,
Turned from home and toil and kindred,
Leaving all for his dear sake.

Of the vain world's golden store,
From each idol that would keep us,
Saying, "Christian, love me more."
4 In our joys and in our sorrows,
Days of toil and hours of ease,
Still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
"Christian, love me more than these."
5 Jesus calls us! In your mercy,
Savior, help us hear your call;
Give our hearts to your obedience,
Serve and love you best of all! Languages: English Tune Title: STUTTGART
