Nearer, My God, to You
Author: Thomas H. Troeger; Sarah Flower Adams Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #606 (1995) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Topics: Year A Proper 11 First Line: Nearer, my God to you, nearer to you Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to you, nearer to you.
I'll bear the cross as Christ calls me to do
and pray each day anew:
Nearer my God, to you, nearer my God, to you,
nearer to you.
2 When I am wandering as Jacob did,
and in the deepest night the path is hid,
my dreams will bring me, too,
Nearer my God, to you, nearer my God, to you,
nearer to you.
3 Let Jacob's ladder fill the sky above,
and angels carry down the faith and love
to keep this goal in view:
Nearer my God, to you, nearer my God, to you,
nearer to you.
4 Then, waking from the night to morning air
by Bethel's stone, I'll know you hear my prayer,
and how my yearning grew:
Nearer my God, to you, nearer my God, to you,
nearer to you.
Scripture: Matthew 16:24 Languages: English Tune Title: BETHANY

The God of love my shepherd is
Author: George Herbert, 1593-1633 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #643 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Year B Proper 11 Lyrics: 1 The God of love my shepherd is,
and he that doth me feed;
while he is mine and I am his,
what can I want or need?
2 He leads me to the tender grass,
where I both feed and rest;
then to the streams that gently pass:
in both I have the best.
3 Or if I stray, he doth convert,
and bring my mind in frame,
and all this not for my desert,
but for his holy name.
4 Yea, in death's shady black abode
well may I walk, nor fear;
for thou art with me, and thy rod
to guide, thy staff to bear.
5 Surely thy sweet and wondrous love
shall measure all my days;
and, as it never shall remove,
so neither shall my praise. Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: UNIVERSITY
The God of love my shepherd is
The Lord my pasture shall prepare
Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #653 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Year B Proper 11 Lyrics: 1 The Lord my pasture shall prepare,
and feed me with a shepherd's care;
his presence shall my wants supply,
and guard me with a watchful eye;
my noonday walks he shall attend,
and all my midnight hours defend.
2 When in the sultry glebe I faint,
or on the thirsty mountain pant,
to fertile vales and dewy meads
my weary wand'ring steps he leads,
where peaceful rivers, soft and slow,
amid the verdant landscape flow.
3 Though in a bare and rugged way
through devious lonely wilds I stray,
thy bounty shall my pains beguile;
the barren wilderness shall smile
with sudden greens and herbage crowned,
and streams shall murmur all around.
4 Though in the paths of death I tread,
with gloomy horrors overspread,
my steadfast heart shall fear no ill,
for thou, 0 Lord, art with me still:
thy friendly staff shall give me aid,
and guide me through the dreadful shade. Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: SURREY
The Lord my pasture shall prepare

3 Yea, though I walk through death's dark vale,
yet will I fear none ill.
For thou art with me, and thy rod
and staff me comfort still.
4 My table thou hast furnishèd
in presence of my foes,
my head thou dost with oil anoint,
and my cup overflows.

shall surely follow me.
And in God's house for evermore
my dwelling-place shall be. Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: CRIMOND

bright seraphs, cherubim and thrones,
raise the glad strain, alleluia!

Refrain:
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia,
alleluia, alleluia!
2 O higher than the cherubim,
more glorious than the seraphim,
lead their praises, alleluia.
O Mary, bearer of the Word,

Teach me, my God and King
Author: George Herbert (1593-1633) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #790 (2013) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Proper 11 Year A Lyrics: 1 Teach me, my God and King,
in all things thee to see;
and what I do in anything
to do it as for thee.
2 A man that looks on glass,
on it may stay his eye;
or, if he pleaseth, through it pass,
and then the heaven espy.
3 All may of thee partake;
nothing can be so mean
which, with this tincture, For thy sake,
will not grow bright and clean.
4 A servant with this clause
makes drudgery divine;
who sweeps a room, as for thy laws,
makes that and the action fine.
5 This is the famous stone
that turneth all to gold;
for that which God doth touch and own
cannot for less be told. Scripture: Acts 10:15 Languages: English Tune Title: SANDYS
Teach me, my God and King
The God of Abraham praise
Author: Thomas Olivers (1725-1799) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #791 (2013) Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Topics: Proper 11 Year B Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise
who reigns enthroned above,
Ancient of everlasting days,
and God of love:
Jehovah, great I AM,
by earth and heaven confest;
we bow and bless the sacred name
for ever blest.
2 The God of Abraham praise,
at whose supreme command
from earth we rise, and seek the joys
at his right hand:
we all on earth forsake
its wisdom, fame, and power;
and him our only portion make,
our shield and tower.
3 Though nature's strength decay,
and earth and hell withstand,
to Canaan's bounds we urge our way
at his command:
the watery deep we pass,
with Jesus in our view;
and through the howling wilderness
our way pursue.
4 The goodly land we see,
with peace and plenty blest:
a land of sacred liberty
and endless rest;
there milk and honey flow,
and oil and wine abound,
and trees of life for ever grow,
with mercy crowned.
5 There dwells the Lord our King,
the Lord our Righteousness,
triumphant o'er the world of sin,
the Prince of peace:
on Sion's sacred height
his kingdom he maintains,
and glorious with his saints in light
for ever reigns.
6 He keeps his own secure,
he guards them by his side,
arrays in garment white and pure
his spotless Bride:
with streams of sacred bliss,
beneath serener skies,
with all the fruits of paradise,
he still supplies.
7 Before the great Three-One
they all exulting stand,
and tell the wonders he hath done
through all their land:
the listening spheres attend,
and swell the growing fame,
and sing in songs which never end
the wondrous name.
8 The God who reigns on high
the great archangels sing,
and 'Holy, Holy, Holy,' cry,
'almighty King,
who was, and is the same,
and evermore shall be.
Jehovah, Father, great I AM,
we worship thee.'
9 Before the Saviour's face
the ransomed nations bow,
o'erwhelmed at his almighty grace
for ever new;
he shows his prints of love —
they kindle to a flame,
and sound through all the worlds above
the slaughtered Lamb.
10 The whole triumphant host
give thanks to God on high;
'hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,'
they ever cry:
hail, Abraham's God, and mine,
(I join the heavenly lays)
all might and majesty are thine,
and endless praise. Scripture: Exodus 3:6 Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI
The God of Abraham praise
As Jacob with travel was weary one day
Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #775 (2000) Meter: 11.11.11.11 with refrain Topics: Year A Proper 11 Refrain First Line: Alleluia to Jesus who died on the tree Lyrics: 1 As Jacob with travel was weary one day,
at night on a stone for a pillow he lay;
he saw in a vision a ladder so high
that its foot was on earth and its top in the sky:
Refrain:
Alleluia to Jesus who died on the tree,
and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me,
and has raised up a ladder of mercy for me.
2 This ladder is long, it is strong and well-made,
has stood hundreds of years and is not yet decayed;
many millions have climbed it and reached Zion's hill,
by thousands by faith are climbing it still: [Refrain]
3 Come let us ascend! all may climb it who will;
for the angels of Jacob are guarding it still:
and remember, each step that by faith we pass o'er,
some prophet or martyr has trod it before: [Refrain]
4 And when we arrive at the haven of rest
we shall hear the glad words, 'Come up hither, ye blest,
here are regions of light, here are mansions of bliss'.
O who would not climb such a ladder as this? [Refrain] Scripture: Genesis 28:10-19 Languages: English Tune Title: JACOB'S LADDER
As Jacob with travel was weary one day
