I Would Be True
Author: Howard A. Walter, 1883-1918 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #503 (2006) Topics: Social Betterment Lyrics: 1 I would be true, for there are those who trust me;
I would be pure, for there are those who care;
I would be strong, for there is much to suffer;
I would be brave, for there is much to dare;
I would be brave, for there is much to dare.
2 I would be friend of all--the foe, the friendless;
I would be giving, and forget the gift;
I would be humble, for I know my weakness;
I would look up, and laugh, and love, and lift;
I would look up, and laugh, and love, and lift.
3 I would be prayerful through each busy moment;
I would be constantly in touch with God;
I would be tuned to hear His slightest whisper;
I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod;
I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: PEEK

We Gather Together
Author: Theodore Baker, 1851-1934 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #517 (2006) Topics: Social Betterment First Line: We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing Lyrics: 1 We gather together to ask the Lord’s blessing;
He chastens and hastens His will to make known;
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing;
Sing praises to His Name; He forgets not His own.
2 Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
Ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine;
So from the beginning the fight we were winning;
Thou, Lord, wast at our side, all glory be Thine!
3 We all do extol Thee, Thou Leader triumphant,
And pray that Thou still our Defender wilt be;
Let Thy congregation escape tribulation;
Thy Name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free!
Amen.

O God, Beneath Thy Guiding Hand
Author: Leonard Bacon, 1802-1881 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #521 (2006) Topics: Social Betterment Lyrics: 1 O God, beneath Thy guiding hand
Our exiled fathers crossed the sea;
And when they trod the wintry strand,
With prayer and psalm they worshiped Thee.
2 Thou heard'st, well pleased, the song, the prayer;
Thy blessing came; and still its pow'r
Shall onward thro' all ages bear
The memory of that holy hour.
3 Laws, freedom, truth, and faith in God
Came with those exiles o'er the waves;
And where their pilgrim feet have trod,
The God they trusted guards their graves.
4 And here Thy Name, O God of love,
Their children's children shall adore,
Till these eternal hills remove,
And spring adorns the earth no more.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET
