God of Grace and God of Glory

Author: Harry Emerson Fosdick Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 155 hymnals Topics: Courage Lyrics: 1 God of grace and God of glory, on the people pour thy power; crown thine ancient church's story, bring her bud to glorious flower. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, for the facing of this hour, for the facing of this hour. 2 Lo! the hosts of evil round us scorn thy Christ, assail his ways! Fears and doubts too long have bound us; free our hearts to work and praise. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, for the living of these days, for the living of these days. 3 Cure thy children's warring madness, bend our pride to thy control; shame our wanton, selfish gladness, rich in things and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, lest we miss thy kingdom's goal, lest we miss thy kingdom's goal. 4 Save us from weak resignation to the evils we deplore; let the search for thy salvation be our glory evermore. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, serving thee whom we adore, serving thee whom we adore. Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,239 hymnals Topics: Courage Lyrics: 1. O God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, our shelter from the stormy blast, and our eternal home! 2. Under the shadow of thy throne, still may we dwell secure; sufficient is thine arm alone, and our defense is sure. 3. Before the hills in order stood, or earth received her frame, from everlasting, thou art God, to endless years the same. 4. A thousand ages, in thy sight, are like an evening gone; short as the watch that ends the night, before the rising sun. 5. Time, like an ever rolling stream, bears all who breathe away; they fly forgotten, as a dream dies at the opening day. 6. O God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come; be thou our guide while life shall last, and our eternal home. Scripture: Psalm 90 Used With Tune: ST. ANNE (Croft)
