Immortal love, for ever full

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #315 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Year A Proper 4 Lyrics: 1 Immortal love, for ever full, for ever flowing free, for ever shared, for ever whole, a never-ebbing sea. 2 Our outward lips confess the name all other names above; love only knoweth whence it came and comprehendeth love. 3 O warm, sweet, tender, even yet a present help is he; and faith has still its Olivet, and love its Galilee. 4 The healing of his seamless dress is by our beds of pain; we touch him in life's throng and press, and we are whole again. 5 Through him the first fond prayers are said our lips of childhood frame; the last low whispers of our dead are burdened with his name. 6 Alone, O love ineffable, thy saving name is giv'n; to turn aside from thee is hell, to walk with thee is heav'n. Scripture: Luke 8:44 Languages: English Tune Title: BISHOPTHORPE

Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence

Author: Gerard Moultrie Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #345 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Year B Proper 4 Lyrics: 1 Let all mortal flesh keep silence, and with fear and trembling stand Ponder nothing earthly-minded, for with blessing in the hand, Christ our God to earth descending, our full homage to demand. 2 Monarch great, yet born of Mary, as of old on earth Christ stood, Lord of all, in human vesture - in the body and the blood - Christ will give to all the faithful bread of life for heavenly food. 3 Rank on rank the host of heaven spreads its vanguard on the way, As the Light of light descending from the realms of endless day, That the powers of hell may vanish as the shadows clear away. 4 At Christ's feet the six-winged seraphs, cherubim with sleepless eye, Veil their faces to the Presence, as with ceaseless voice they cry, Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, God most high! Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:13-15 Languages: English Tune Title: PICARDY

A safe stronghold our God is still

Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546; Thomas Carlyle, 1795-1881 Hymnal: Common Praise #366 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: Proper 4 Year A Lyrics: 1 A safe stronghold our God is still, a trusty shield and weapon; he'll keep 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.

All my hope on God is founded

Me through change and chance he guideth, only good and only true. God unknown, he alone calls my heart to be his own. 2 Pride of man and earthly glory, sword and crown betray his trust; what with care and toil he buildeth, tower and temple, fall to dust. But God's power, hour by hour, is my temple and my tower. 3 God's great goodness aye endureth, deep his wisdom, passing thought: splendour, light, and life attend him, beauty springeth out of naught. Evermore from his store new-born worlds rise and adore. 4 Daily doth th' Almighty giver bounteous gifts on us bestow; his desire our soul delighteth, pleasure leads us where we go. Love doth stand at his hand; joy doth wait on his command. 5 Still from earth to God eternal sacrifice of praise be done, high above all praises praising for the gift of Christ his Son. Christ doth call one and all: ye who follow shall not fall. Scripture: 1 Peter 1:21 Languages: English Tune Title: MICHAEL
