Mindful of Our Human Frailty
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #213 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Brevity And Frailty Of Life Lyrics: 1 Mindful of our human frailty
Is the God in Whom we trust;
He whose years are everlasting,
He remembers we are dust.

And his days are like the grass,
Withered where it lately flourished
By the blighting winds that pass.
3 Changeless is Jehovah's mercy
Unto those who fear His Name,
From eternity abiding
To eternity the same.
4 All the faithful to His covenant
Shall behold His righteousness;
He will be their strength and refuge,
And their children's children bless. Scripture: Psalm 103 Languages: English Tune Title: TALMAR

Is this our mortal frame!
Our life how poor a trifle 'tis,

That built our body first!
And every month and every day,
'Tis mouldering back to dust.

Our feeble powers decay,
Swift like a flood our hasty days
Are sweeping us away.
4 Yet, if our days must fly,
We'll keep their end in sight,
We'll spend them all in wisdom's way,
And let them speed their flight.
5 They'll waft us sooner o'er
This life's tempestuous sea;
Soon we shall reach the peaceful shore
Of blest eternity. Scripture: Psalm 90:5 Languages: English

Teach me the measure of my days!

A little point my life appears;
How frail at best is dying man!
How vain are all his hopes and fears.

Vain are the cares which rack his mind!
He heaps up treasures mix'd with woe,
And dies and leaves them all behind.

My God, I bow before thy throne,
Earth's fleeting treasures I resign,
And fix my hopes on thee alone. Scripture: Psalm 39 Languages: English

Praise him, all angels, wondrous in might;
praise him, you servants who in his will delight.

most slow to anger, plenteous in love.
Rich is his grace to all who humbly seek him,
boundless and endless as the heavens above. Refrain

tender and kind to all who fear his name;
for well he knows our weakness and our frailty;
he knows that we are dust, he knows our frame. Refrain

like tender grass that soon will disappear;
but evermore the love of God is changeless,
still shown to those who look to him in fear. Refrain

his kingdom rules o'er all from pole to pole.
Praise to the Lord through all his wide dominion;
forever praise his holy name, my soul. Refrain

The Tender Love a Father Has
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #583 (1987) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Brevity & Frailty of Life; Brevity & Frailty of Life Lyrics: 1 The tender love a father has
for all his children dear
such love the Lord bestows on those
who worship him in fear.
2 The Lord remembers we are dust,
and all our frailty knows;
our life is like the tender grass,
and as the flower it grows.
3 The flower is withered by the wind
that smites with blighting breath;
so we are quickly swept away
before the blast of death.
4 Unchanging is the love of God,
from age to age the same,
displayed to all who do his will
and reverence his name.
5 Those who his gracious covenant keep
the Lord will ever bless;
their children's children shall rejoice
to see his righteousness.

O God, our help in ages past
Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #47 (1917) Topics: Human Frailty; Human Frailty 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,
Thy saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient in Thine arm alone,
And our defence 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. The busy tribes of flesh and blood,
With all their cares and fears,
Are carried downward by the flood,
And lost in following years.
6. Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
Bears all its sons away;
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
7. 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. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ANN

And if he speak a Oromise once,
Th' eternal Grace is sure.

The promis'd Jewish Throne!
But there's a nobler Cov'nant seal'd
To David's greater Son.
4 His Seed for ever shall possess
A Throne above the Skies;
The meanest Subjects of his Grace
Shall to that Glory rise.
5 Lord GOD of Hosts, thy wond'rous Ways
Are sung by Saints above;
And Saints on Earth their Honours raise
To thy unchanging Love. Scripture: Psalm 89 Languages: English
My never ceasing Songs shall show
