When all thy mercies, O my God
Author: Joseph Addison (1672-1719) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #820 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Stages of Life Lyrics: 1 When all thy mercies, O my God,
my rising soul surveys,
transported with the view, I'm lost
in wonder, love, and praise.
2 Unnumbered comforts to my soul
thy tender care bestowed,
before my infant heart conceived
from whom those comforts flowed.
3 When in the slippery paths of youth
with heedless steps I ran,
thine arm unseen conveyed me safe,
and led me up to man.
4 Ten thousand thousand precious gifts
my daily thanks employ,
and not the least a cheerful heart
which tastes those gifts with joy.
5 Through every period of my life
thy goodness I'll pursue,
and after death in distant worlds
the glorious theme renew.
6 Through all eternity to thee,
a joyful song I'll raise;
for O, eternity's too short
to utter all thy praise. Scripture: Psalm 103:1-19 Languages: English Tune Title: CONTEMPLATION
When all thy mercies, O my God

worship marks our upward climb,
sets the rhythm of our journey
to eternity through time:
though the outward things diminish
we are held more firm by grace,
following God's heavenward calling
and the everlasting prize.
2 As we seek to weave life's fabric
on the lengthening loom of days,
may Christ guide the threads that form it,
be the pattern it displays;
may the Father, master craftsman,
sorrowing over each mistake,
plan for us a new perfection
from the ugliness we make.
3 Though we long for the adventure
of the mystery of bliss,
to the pilgrim's eyes the pathway
breaks, and ends in death's abyss;
but within the dark are waiting
hands that bear the print of nails,
which will hold us safe and bear us
where the worship never fails. Scripture: John 14:1-4 Languages: English Tune Title: EBENEZER
