Now Thank We All Our God
Author: Martin Rinckart; Catherine Winkworth; Flossette du Pasquier Hymnal: Voices United #236 (1996) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Topics: Christian Year Reformation Day First Line: Now thank we all our God (Louons le Créateur) Lyrics: 1 Now thank we all our God,
with heart, and hands, and voices,
who wondrous things has done,
in whom this world rejoices;
who from our mothers' arms
has blessed us on our way
with countless gifts of love,
and still is ours today.
2 O may this bounteous God
through all our life be near us,
with ever-joyful hearts
and blessed peace to cheer us,
and keep us strong in grace,
and guide us when perplexed,
and free us from all ills
in this world and the next.
3 All praise and thanks to God
for all that has been given,
the Son, and Spirit blest
who dwell in highest heaven,
the one eternal God,
whom heaven and earth adore;
for thus it was, is now,
and shall be, evermore.
French:
1 Louons le Créateur,
chantons à Dieu louanges!
Et joignons notre voix
au concert de ses anges!
Dès les bras maternels
il nous a protégés
et, jusqu'au dernier jour,
il est notre berger.
2 Loué soit notre Dieu!
Que notre vie entière
tous nous vivions joyeux
sous le regard du Père;
qu'il nous tienne en sa grâce
et nous guide toujours,
nous garde du malheur
par son unique amour.
3 De ce Dieu trois fois saint
qui règne dans la gloire,
chrétiens, empressons-nous
de chanter la victoire;
c'est lui qui nous unit
et nous fait retrouver
le chemin de l'amour
et de la liberté. Languages: English; French Tune Title: NUN DANKET

How Firm a Foundation
Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #243 (2018) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Reformation Day First Line: How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord,
is laid for your faith in his excellent Word!
What more can he say than to you he has said,
to you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 "Fear not, I am with you, O be not dismayed;
for I am your God, and will still give you aid;
I'll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand,
upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
3 "When through the deep waters I call you to go,
the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
for I will be with you, your troubles to bless,
and sanctify to you your deepest distress.
4 "When through fiery trials your pathway shall lie,
my grace, all-sufficient, shall be your supply;
the flame shall not hurt you; I only design
your dross to consume and your gold to refine.
5 "E'en down to old age all my people shall prove
my sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love;
and when hoary hairs shall their temples adorn,
like lambs they shall still in my bosom be borne.
6 "The soul that on Jesus has leaned for repose,
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." Scripture: Deuteronomy 31:8 Languages: English Tune Title: FOUNDATION

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
Author: Martin Luther; Frederick H. Hedge Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #244 (2018) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: Reformation Day Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing;
our helper he, amid the flood
of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe
doth seek to work us woe;
his craft and power are great,
and armed with cruel hate,
on earth is not his equal.
2 Did we in our own strength confide,
our striving would be losing;
were not the right man on our side,
the man of God's own choosing.
Dost ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is he,
Lord Sabaoth his name,
from age to age the same,
and he must win the battle.
3 And though this world, with devils filled,
should threaten to undo us,
we will not fear, for God hath willed
his truth to triumph through us.
The prince of darkness grim,
we tremble not for him;
his rage we can endure,
for lo, his doom is sure;
one little word shall fell him.
4 That Word above all earthly pow'rs,
no thanks to them, abideth;
the Spirit and the gifts are ours
through him who with us sideth.
Let goods and kindred go,
this mortal life also;
the body they may kill:
God's truth abideth still;
his kingdom is forever. Scripture: Psalm 46 Languages: English Tune Title: EIN' FESTE BURG
A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Who has our race befriended!
To us no harm shall now come nigh,
The strife at last is ended;
God his good will displays to men,
And peace shall reign on earth again;
O thank him for his goodness.
2 We praise, we worship you, we trust,
And give you thanks forever,
O Father, that your rule is just,
And wise, and changes never;
Your boundless power o'er all things reigns,
You do whate'er your will ordains;
'Tis well you are our ruler!
3 O Jesus Christ, our God and Lord,
Begotten of the Father,
O Savior, who our peace restored,
And who lost sheep did gather,
O Lamb of God, enthroned on high,
Behold our need and hear our cry;
Have mercy on us, Jesus!
4 O Holy Spirit, precious gift,
O Comforter unfailing,
Do you our troubled souls uplift,
Against the foe prevailing,
Avert our woes and calm our dread;
For us the Savior's blood was shed;
Do you in faith sustain us!
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 46 Tune Title: ALLEIN GOTT IN DER HÖH'

God Is Love: Let Heaven Adore Him
Author: Timothy Rees (1874-1939) Hymnal: The Worshipbook #386 (1972) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Other Observances Reformation Day Lyrics: 1 God is love: let heaven adore him;
God is love: let earth rejoice;
Let creation sing before him,
And exalt him with one voice.
He who laid the earth's foundation,
He who spread the heavens above,
He who breathes through all creation,
He is love, eternal love.
2 God is love: he is enfolding
All the world in one embrace;
With unfailing grasp he's holding
Every child of every race.
And when human hearts are breaking
Under sorrow's iron rod,
All the sorrow, all the aching,
Wrings with pain the heart of God.
3 God is love: and though with blindness
Sin afflicts the souls of men,
God's eternal loving-kindness
Holds and guides them even then.
Sin and death and hell shall never
O'er us final triumph gain;
God is love, so love forever
O'er the universe must reign.
Amen. Scripture: 1 John 4:7-8 Tune Title: ABBOT'S LEIGH
God Is Love: Let Heaven Adore Him
The Church's One Foundation

The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #404 (2018) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Reformation Day Lyrics: 1 The church's one foundation
is Jesus Christ, her Lord;
she is his new creation
by water and the Word:
from heav'n he came and sought her
to be his holy bride;
with his own blood he bought her,
and for her life he died.
2 Elect from ev'ry nation,
yet one o'er all the earth,
her charter of salvation
one Lord, one faith, one birth;
one holy name she blesses,
partakes one holy food,
and to one hope she presses,
with ev'ry grace endued.
3 Though with a scornful wonder
men see her sore oppressed,
by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distressed,
yet saints their watch are keeping,
their cry goes up, "How long?"
And soon the night of weeping
shall be the morn of song.
4 The church shall never perish!
Her dear Lord to defend,
to guide, sustain, and cherish,
is with her to the end;
though there be those that hate her,
and false sons in her pale,
against both foe and traitor
she ever shall prevail.
5 'Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of her war,
she waits the consummation
of peace forevermore;
till with the vision glorious
her longing eyes are blest,
and the great church victorious
shall be the church at rest.
6 Yet she on earth hath union
with the God the Three in One,
and mystic sweet communion
with those whose rest is won:
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we,
like them, the meek and lowly,
on high may dwell with thee. Scripture: Ephesians 2:20-22 Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

God's Word Is like a Flaming Sword
Author: Carl Bernhard Garve; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 Hymnal: The Worshipbook #405 (1972) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Other Observances Reformation Day Lyrics: 1. God’s word is like a flaming sword,
A wedge that cleaves the stone;
Keen as a fire, so burns his word,
And pierces flesh and bone.
Let it go forth o’er all the earth
To cleanse our hearts within,
To show God’s power in Satan’s hour
And break the might of sin.
2. God’s word, a wondrous guiding star,
On pilgrim hearts does rise,
Leads those to God who dwell afar,
And makes the simple wise.
Let not its light e’er sink in night,
But in each spirit shine,
That none may miss heaven’s final bliss,
Led by God’s light divine.
Amen. Scripture: Hebrews 4:12 Tune Title: OLD 107TH
God's Word Is like a Flaming Sword
