God, the All-terrible! Thou who ordainest

Thou who ordainest, Thunder Thy clarion, lightning Thy sword; Show forth Thy pity on high where Thou reignest: Give to us peace in our time, O Lord! 2 God, the Almighty One! wisely ordaining Judgments unsearchable, famine and sword; Over the tumult of war Thou art reigning: Give to us peace in our time, O Lord! 3 God, the All-merciful! earth hath forsaken Thy ways of blessedness, slighted Thy word; Bid not Thy wrath in its terrors awaken: Give to us peace in our time, O Lord! 4 God, the All-righteous one! man hath defied Thee; Yet to eternity standeth Thy word; Falsehood and wrong shall not tarry beside Thee: Give to us peace in our time, O Lord! 5 God, the All-wise! by the fire of Thy chastening, Earth shall to freedom and peace be restored; Through the thick darkness Thy Kingdom is hastening; Thou wilt give peace in Thy time, O Lord! 6 So shall Thy children, with thankful devotion, Praise Him who saved them from peril and sword, Singing in chorus from ocean to ocean, Peace to the nations, and praise to the Lord.

Amen. Scripture: Psalm 72 Tune Title: DUKE STREET

A safe stronghold our God is still

Author: Thomas Carlyle, 1795-1881; Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #396b (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Social Service Lyrics: 1 A safe stronghold our God is still, A trusty shield and weapon; He'll help us clear from all the ill That hath us now o'ertaken. The ancient prince of hell Hath risen with purpose fell; Strong mail of craft and power He weareth in this hour; On earth is not his fellow. 2 With force of arms we nothing can, Full soon were we down-ridden; But for us fights the proper Man, Whom God Himself hath bidden. Ask ye, who is this same? Christ Jesus is His name, The Lord Sabaoth's Son; He, and no other one, Shall conquer in the battle. 3 And were this world all devils o'er And watching to devour us, We lay it not to heart so sore; Not they can overpower us. And let the prince of ill Look grim as e'er he will, He harms us not a whit; For why? his doom is writ; A word shall quickly slay him. 4 God's Word, for all their craft and force, One moment will not linger, But, spite of hell, shall have its course; 'Tis written by His finger. And though they take our life, Goods, honour, children, wife, Yet is their profit small; These things shall vanish all, The city of God remaineth. Languages: English Tune Title: EIN' FESTE BURG

Hail, in the time appointed, his reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, to set the captive free; to take away transgression, and rule in equity. 2 He comes with succor speedy to those who suffer wrong, to help the poor and needy, and bid the weak be strong; to give them songs for sighing, their darkness turn to light, whose souls, condemned and dying, were precious in his sight. 3 He shall come down like showers upon the fruitful earth, and love, joy, hope, like flowers, spring in his path to birth; before him on the mountains shall peace, the herald, go; and righteousness in fountains from hill to valley flow. 4 Kings shall bow down before him, and gold and incense bring; all nations shall adore him, his praise all people sing; to him shall prayer unceasing and daily vows ascend; his kingdom still increasing, a kingdom without end. 5 O'er every foe victorious, he on his throne shall rest; from age to age more glorious, all blessing and all blest; the tide of time shall never his covenant remove; his Name shall stand for ever, his changeless Name of Love.

Though earthquake shocks are threatening her, And tempests are abroad; 4 Unshaken as eternal hills, Immovable she stands, A mountain that shall fill the earth, A house not made by hands.
