Glorious Things of You Are Spoken
Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Worshipbook #379 (1972) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Creed Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
He whose word cannot be broken
Formed you for his own abode.
On the Rock of Ages founded,
What can shake your sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
You may smile at all your foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal Love,
Well supply your sons and daughters,
And all fears of want remove:
Who can faint, while such a river
Flows their thirst to satisfy?
Grace, which, like the Lord the giver,
Never fails; he does supply.
3 Round each habitation hovering,
See the cloud and fire appear
For a glory and a covering,
Showing that the Lord is near:
Thus deriving from their banner
Light by night and shade by day,
Safe they feed upon the manna
Which he gives them when they pray.
Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 46:13 Tune Title: AUSTRIAN HYMN

God Himself Is with Us
Author: Gerhard Tersteegen Hymnal: The Worshipbook #384 (1972) Meter: Irregular Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Creed Lyrics: 1 God himself is with us:
Let us now adore him
And with awe appear before him.
God is in his temple,
All within keep silence,
And before him bow with reverence.
Him alone,
God we own;
To our Lord and Savior
Praises sing forever.
2 God himself is with us:
Whom angelic legions
Serve with awe in heavenly regions.
"Holy, Holy, Holy,"
Sing the hosts of heaven,
Praise to God be ever given.
O give ear
To us here:
Hear, O Christ, the praises
That your Church now raises.
3 Lord, come dwell within us,
While on earth we tarry;
Make us your blest sanctuary.
Grant us now your presence,
Unto us draw nearer,
And reveal yourself still clearer.
Where we are,
Near or far,
Let us see your power,
Every day and hour.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 1:23 Tune Title: ARNSBERG

God Is Working His Purpose Out
Author: Arthur Campbell Ainger Hymnal: The Worshipbook #389 (1972) Meter: Irregular Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Creed Lyrics: 1 God is working his purpose out
As year succeeds to year:
God is working his purpose out,
And the time is drawing near;
Nearer and nearer draws the time,
The time that shall surely be,
When the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
2 What can we do to work God's work,
To prosper and increase
The brotherhood of all mankind,
The reign of the Prince of Peace?
What can we do to hasten the time,
The time that shall surely be,
When the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
3 March we forth in the strength of God,
With the banner of Christ unfurled,
That the light of the glorious gospel of truth
May shine throughout the world:
Fight we the fight with sorrow and sin
To set their captives free,
That the earth may be filled with the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
4 All we can do is nothing worth
Unless God blesses the deed;
Vainly we hope for the harvest-tide
Till God gives life to the seed;
Yet nearer and nearer draws the time,
The time that shall surely be,
When the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
Amen. Scripture: Ephesians 1:9-11 Tune Title: PURPOSE
God Is Working His Purpose Out

That all the stars in their courses is guiding?
What shall we fear, with your power to protect us,
We who walk forth in your greatness confiding?

Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.

The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
For I will be near you, your troubles to bless,
And sanctify to you your deepest distress.

I will not, I will not desert to his foes;
That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never, no, never, no, never forsake."

If You Will Only Let God Guide You
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Georg Neumark Hymnal: The Worshipbook #431 (1972) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Creed Lyrics: 1 If you will only let God guide you,
And hope in him through all your ways,
Whatever comes, he'll stand beside you,,
To bear you through the evil days;
Who trusts in God's unchanging love
Builds on the rock that cannot move.
2 Only be still, and wait his leisure
In cheerful hope, with heart content
To take whate'er the Father's pleasure
And all discerning love have sent;
Nor doubt our inmost wants are known
To him who chose us for his own.
3 Sing, pray, and swerve not from his ways,
But do your part in conscience true;
Trust his rich promises of grace,
So shall they be fulfilled in you;
God hears the call of those in need,
The souls that trust in him indeed.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 55:22 Tune Title: NEUMARK
